Stealing in "vs CPU" Games
-
@TripleH-4481_PSN I think you're right!
-
@mubby_33_PSN Thanks for confirming that I'm not going crazy and that there probably was a little tweak in the system.
-
I'm seeing several things. A slight increase in caught stealing, a big increase in throwing errors, bobbled balls, and wild pitches, and a slight increase in CPU hitting. Nothing ridiculous or game changing though a ridiculous string of 3 throwing errors on one play cost me a conquest game lol
-
Yeah the cpu wild pitches is crazy. The game is head scratching this year. Almost like they tried too hard to randomize outcomes and it’s now turned into a circus that resembles the game play of the 6-7 year olds I help coach.
-
I can still steal with P5 Lindor easily; no difference here.
-
Not noticing any trouble in stealing myself. There was a dirty fake out trick from 1B on pickoff early game. He would act like drop the ball to mess up my run down. Lol! Other than that my numbers are solid.
Lindor 89-6
Jeter 126-46 better now that 71 speed P5
Mantle 102-6
Dominguez 144-2
Egg Hunt Jazz 23-3
Durant 206-3 my bench guy now to sub in for Judge or Williams DH if need late game steal. -
@MrNintendo_MLBTS a tip for less step off pick attempts is to wait until pitcher set before taking lead and tapping L2 for auto steal. If take lead before they set they seem more inclined to try pickoff, which gets you caught in rundown.
-
@MrNintendo_MLBTS I just bait them for a pickoff and go on the next pitch. I’d have to tabulate, but I’m sure I’m about >90%
-
The CPU does more slide steps … Especially on Goat/Legend
-
For what it's worth I've noticed the same thing. Been picked off more over the last week than the rest of season combined
-
I think they made the steal number mean more, which is probably good. Up until now I've been stealing 2nd and 3rd with anyone 79 speed or more with relative ease. Now I'm noticing guys with mediocre or low steal numbers are getting worse jumps and thrown out more, even guys with 90+ speed.
