Worst commentary change in sports gaming history
-
The more I hear it, the more I get accustomed to it. It's sounds at least natural, which Vasgurian and the old crew really didn't. I'll say again I wish there was at least one female voice.
One other thing... last year I used Duane Kuiper's "He hits it high, he hits it far, he hits it deeeeep…that ball is out of here!!!" as my no doubt home run call. That call (and several others) are missing this year. Maybe they'll add them in later (I hope), but I really miss Kuiper's call.
-
I have had the too the wall commentary at least 3 times over the weekend on week fly balls that barely made it out of the infield.
-
Wish the had both sets of commentators. Random who you get. Would be much better.
-
I like it better this year. Just because you do not like it does not mean it's trash. I don't like lima beans and some people think they are great.
-
Wait... people actually listen to commentary in sports games?

I did get the announcers talking about the other team's pitcher, "making his major league debut", and something about what he used to do in the minors, a couple of times last night. Bear in mind that my player is currently still in Double A, and this pitcher was making his major league debut for the Hartford Yard Goats.
I'm not really all that bothered by the commentary, one way or the other, but the fact that my player's last name is no longer in the audio list really threw me off my game. I created a new guy, and I like him, but it feels so wrong not playing with the character I've had for years at this point that I'm just gonna break down and make him anyway, and just deal with him being referred to as Number 20.
If you think your last name not being in the audio anymore is bad, my real life last name is now flagged as "inappropriate text" when I try to create my ballplayer. Was the same way last year too and it completely ruined RTTS for me.

I actually wanted new commentary too make it fell like a different game. But they should have more regional commentators, even different ones at night, bring in they MLB tonight guys for night games. Just a thought.
-
I went in and made my guy anyway. The announcers calling him Number 20 doesn't bother me as much as I thought it would.
Did have a few more odd experiences with the commentary though. This time, it was my player they were talking about making his major league debut.... even though it was a minor league game, and his 3rd start on the hill.
Another time, in Mini-Seasons, (which does seem fixed now, from what I can tell), they questioned the wisdom of my leaving starter Fernando Valenzuela in, rather than going to the bullpen, and wondered how he'd be able to work out of this jam. Pitchers tire quickly in Mini Seasons, and I did have some arms in the bullpen, but this jam they were talking about... was a 1-2 count on the leadoff batter in the second inning. Didn't feel like that big of a deal to me.

I've seen them getting the scores mixed up. I'm up 3-0 and they say i'm down 3-0. Also have heard too many times that I'm at the 9th or 10th pitch of the at bat with a 1-1 count. Definitely some bugs they need to fix with this

You might want to file a support ticket on that and specifically tell them the problem. Maybe they'll change it.

I had them say a perfect game had been broken up two batters after I hit a home run.

This is great. Try NHL 22 and listen to those guys scream the whole time. Sounds like a bunch of carnies trying to guess your weight
-
The weirdest one for me was playing a game at Camden Yards and they were talking about a homerun going over the iconic ‘Green Monster’, and how much they loved Fenway.
-
I like the change of pace, yes, some of the audio is mixed up or lacking, but I thing they will get it fixed.
