    @Simple-Jack3998_XBL, I guess everyone’s different. I’m 50, been playing this game when it was 989 Sports and baseball video games since Atari had a 3 person defensive unit that moved in unison, and while I notice the imperfections (certain animations, the feedback) they don’t bother me that much.

    I don’t expect input to line up with results all the time; baseball is hard, and sometimes batters whiff on pitches they’re looking right at and pitchers miss their spots and get hammered. That’s part of the game, and like everything else in a video game representation, the frequency is exaggerated. I’d rather see that than Aroldis Chapman dotting every pitch just because someone was good at the game’s mechanics. And, my god, I can’t even imagine there being more hard hit [censored].

    Again, not saying that this is a perfect representation of the game (lots of work to do there), but removing random, undesired outcomes entirely would make things worse, in my opinion.

    @The_Joneser_PSN I'm 37. I've been playing since hardball on saga or Nintendo? Can't remember because it's been 30 years lol. But I noticed the same thing is happening to The Show that made me not play Madden. They are putting too many smaller details in the game. I mean we don't really need feedback or 4 different options to pitch. All that does is add more coding. And more coding could/will screw up another area of gameplay. It would be a lot easier if it was just a 3-point position on hitting. Under/same plane/on top of the ball. But yet, I'm getting fly [censored] with feedback showing slightly on top of the ball. I also don't need guys sliding into bags on hit and run plays.

    Polish. 24 lacks polish. Too many glitches and as you said too many code problems alongside other issues. If they didn't have sets and card limitations I'd probably have less a gripe about glitches or bugs. If they didn't have any gameplay issues and polish I'd probably have less of a gripe about sets and limitations. I hate that BOTH exist together in 24.

    RNG is certainly an issue in 24. Never saw it prior years. To say it doesn’t happen ur fooling urself in my opinion. I can play guys and based off my defensive errors or pitches not going anywhere they were supposed to immediatly know RNG is against me for that given game. Though foul [censored] are “fixed” suddenly they aren’t and burying pitches does nothing. Foul foul foul homerun. Get a guy on first double play. You can read this game pretty well before it even happens that’s how I know I’m not just crazy. It’s terrible this year. Gameplay is [censored]. Animations are a toss up. I’m 43-10 online. 9 out of 10 losses have come from players significantly worse with absolutely bullshit dink hits up the middle. Late and early hits. An obsurd number of fouls [censored] and me going 1-18 on goods.

    @RAisEdByGoAt_XBL, with a 43 - 10 record, I’ll bet you’re pretty [censored] good. But the fact that you think you’re 52 - 1 good tells me all I need to know about the lengths to which your hyperbole stretches and the relative weight of your conclusions.

    There’s definitely more dependence on random chance this year, but I think that’s a good thing. Plenty of other problems with the game… now if they could just tamp down the exit velocity and keep the ball in the park a little bit more…

    The only reason my record is what it is is because I haven’t dipped into 900 yet or legend. I would get mutilated 900 plus. I don’t claim to be as good as that might of sounded. But my “theory” on the RNG stands… in my eyes and many others anyway. The losses have been just silly.
    When ur defensive infield starts making silly errors on clutch plays, ur pitches randomly start hanging, ur exit velos suddenly decrease significantly, and your opponent can foul top absolutely everything then suddenly hit a late or early dink consistently I refuse to believe RNG isn’t something incorporated this year.
