Help with Fielding
-
So I've adjusted about every setting I can find, but I still don't really get to control the fielders. I play on All-Star or veteran, does that give me less control?
My middle infielders will make plays on their own, and my corner infielders often won't allow me to move them until the ball is already upon them. I often can't get to a ball 2 feet away, it's like they are stuck in cement shoes. Also, I often get the wrong fielder when there are popups in shallow outfield or in foul territory behind first as well as bunts. Do HOF and Legend provide more control? I haven't seen many people complaining about it so I assume it can't be this bad for everyone. How do I get smooth fielding? These animations blow. -
There’s nothing you can do because this game is [censored] horrible

I feel like fielding is pre determined and you can only be as good as the randomness let's you. reactions have a max, and even the best breaks on a ball that should or could be caught, sometimes aren't.

@dinkus_MLBTS Keep in mind a lot of adjustments got made to appease to complaints made by DD users. Same goes for baserunning changes. Things that had to get changed to stop cheating from happening. You can stop all the cheating and maybe they can go back to the way it was 7 or 8 games back.

What's your Fielding Assist setting set at?

Offline or online? Offline I have zero issues. Online depends on the Internet connection.

@xRatedGProdigyx_PSN Offline and online (vs friends). I think it's just the reaction time settings they use which don't allow fielders to move immediately on grounders. And as far as the crappy fielders they select, that's just bad AI. It used to be you had control over the fielder the ball was coming at and the one behind (outfielder) would be on his way automatically so you could then switch. Now the outfielder is the initial guy they give you so when you think you can get to a ground ball with say SS, you pull the outfielder off because you were never given the opportunity with the infielder. I just hope they blow the whole fielding engine up and start over. A previous poster had it right I think in that they must have made these changes to stop cheater from taking advantage of a smooth fielding/running game. Now we get this clunky unathletic quagmire in the field instead.

My only issue fielding wise is my fielders are all amazing even pitching on Hall of Fame which is what fielding is depended on. Or so I think from pitching on All Star briefly before switching to Hall of Fame.
