Stealing is broken
-
I just stole second with the new chone figgins on a Chapman pitch out with shae langsliers catching.
It shouldn't be a guaranteed stollen base because you have 99/99. The best base stealers het caught 10-20% of the time.
Maybe you could finally after 10 years fix the tagging animations.
-
or the throwing ones - perfectly timed throws (even with high-accuracy catchers) almost never go where you need to to maximize steal chances
-
I get throw out with 99 speed 99 steal by preloading l2 all the time. I don't trust anyone. Meanwhile I got Mackey p5 with 99 everything and I still get stole on online and against cpu
-
My 99 speeds also get thrown out. It’s not impossible to throw out fast players. Especially if change up the time it takes you throw the pitch.
-
I don't even bother throwing most of the time.
Waste of time.
-
This is another thing that SDS apparently just doesnt know how to fix...remember how they bragged about Pop Time?
Stealing is so broken. I love how in every stealing thread there's two guys that post "I just threw out a 99 speed guy!" - cool, just like the guy who says he just pulled Shohei. you get lucky once in a blue moon - but it is SO free and broken to steal
-
There's only one silver lining - this game is so broken in favor of home runs that most players who can bat pretty well dont even care about stealing.
If they do steal, its just to avoid double plays - which are insanely common in the show - not really to have a better chance at putting up runs.

@go4stros25_PSN mYbe they could fix the sliding animations too lol.
-
Offline I can steal on any difficulty- online there's way too much input lag...only on stealing though, I can hit just fine
-
Offline it's automatic.
Online...It's mostly automatic as long as the runner doesn't wait to take off until about 1/4 way into the pitch. If It's close then it's usually safe because the tag animations are incredibly slow.
