Grant Taylor
-
this is a lil extreme + never happened with Josh Hader or Michael King
-
I just played my world seiries game for this season. I was down 2 late and the guy brought in grant and hader. Its so annoying, but it felt so good to light up hader. I won, but didn't get enough point to pass 800.
-
I am SO tired of people yelling about King and Hader and even Grant. Every Tom and Joe puts it as Number One on their list of grievances to SDS.
Hader and King are super hittable these days - they're not feasible pitchers to use now, and anyone using them is probably a goofball. (Ps: because theyre a goofball, they will always throw you that two seamer away...and you should jack it to the moon).
Grant is a lesser glitch - and once you're used to it, its kinda the same as any pitcher.
These glitches have almost no impact on your daily player experience.
If you want to complain, there are SO many other things. I suggest you use "game is stale and boring"

@rubicante23_PSN I agree that grant isnt as bad as hader, and that they are hittable, its just annoying that players with the best lineups in the game still bring him in, because while hittable, hader does screw you sometimes.
Its also just dumb that they havent fixed him because as an astros fan I would love a new hader card and they wont (and shouldnt) give us one until its fixed.
-
@Go4stros25_MLBTS sure, he can beat you sometimes. Sometimes he can even beat you PRECISELY BECAUSE your decent swing registered as a contact swing...
However, any other really good pitcher can AND WILL beat you more often....
-
@rubicante23_PSN we agree.
-
King and Hader are BP on AS & HOF, especially with lineups being 97-99 now.
Taylor is for sure bugged but once you see him a few times it’s not horrible. Then get 1 guy on base and the glitch goes away anyway.

What’s hilarious is 99% of the people complaining about Hader/King aren’t even playing on a difficulty where it matters. And they likely don’t even notice it. They’re just repeating the tired narratives of their favorite CCs.

@Bridge-Piece_XBL is the video game elitism? Do you agree that Josh haders 2 seam forces your swing to register as a contact swing or not?
-
@Bridge-Piece_XBL I have a weird way of beating the Taylor delivery...when he comes in, I physically lower my head down and look up at the screen...it keeps his arm out of my peripheral vision, but I can still see the ball "release". It's goofy, but effective.

I am not sure because on AS and HOF, I a) rock them and b) haven’t noticed.
But I don’t play legend online.
Would love for someone to come out with a video breaking down the glitch.

The Grant Taylor issue is separate from the Hader/King situation. My understanding is that, while the team is still doing their due diligence on it, they're optimistic about being able to fix it, and hopefully soon.
We're still investigating Hader/King. As I said the other day, don't interpret a lack of public updates to mean that nothing is being done. We just want to be careful and judicious about what we share and when. These things can take time so we just have to let the process play out, as difficult as that can sometimes be for all of us.

Thou shalt not speak ill of a former Tiger.

Not to hijack this thread; but are you allowed to make any comment in the potential punishment for the players that abused the WBC MS Glitch?
I dont mean as what exactly is being done. But just an update that its still a work in progress/trying to figure out who did it scenario.
Its just frustrating that I've seen multiple streamers, who not only did/shown how to do the glitch, but also put out videos blasting AND daring SDS to actually do something to them and yet theyre still playing and still streaming.

@x-814-x-MAFIA-x_PSN -- I can't speak to that at this time.

Ok. Thats understandable. Thank you for the reply.
-
Nevermind they seemed to have fixed this non Grant Taylor related thing.
-
Just ran into Grant Taylor for first time. Guy brought him on to pitch the 8th and 9th on hof. Fortunately I was leading and won. But the ball is impossible to read. Completely unfair. There is no reason this should be on the game.
If we can remove Roberto Palomar or Trevor Bauer or Kirby puckett or whomever. You should be able to remove these pitchers that people exploit to death
-
Just give him a generic delivery, this 94 should not be allowed in online play.

I hit a 2 run homer vs Grant on ranked. A few innings later he quit. Btw I was just using timing hitting.
