GUESS PITCH - it used to work!?!
-
I went back and installed MLB The Show 20 just to check. I played a game, and sure enough, I used guess pitch and on the "NO FEEDBACK" setting, I received NO FEEDBACK.
I see a lot of people just complain and scream about stuff on here. They don't have uniform fabric that moves, xyz brand is not in my game, they need to stop this or start that. I understand each of these people is frustrated, but the plain and simple fact is that this is the best baseball game simulation (for playing, not just running numbers and simulating) that has been ever made. It captures the hitter-pitcher battles the best, looks incredibly good, and often plays quite well.
The thing I don't understand is why the people who make the game seem to want to greet brand new audiences (which I don't have a problem with), but why do they alienate those of us who have played this game since 2008. I used to do a short, 29-game season to start each year. Fantasy draft, legends, and I would pick a different team just to get used to how the new features work. I played that way for something like 11 or 12 years.
Then March to October came, and they cut out short seasons without ever saying a word about it. March to October is fine for what it is, but again, why do they alienate someone like me who has used the Seasons feature EVERY YEAR so they can include MTO, a mode I won't use, is not baseball for me (it is more of this instant gratification world we live in now) and just isn't fun. Being dropped in during the bottom of the 8th of a game, needing to rally, and then that effects my team's next several games (that I don't play) is just a waste of time for me. I would rather have played each and every inning of those 5 or 6 games. I don't need the brevity that MTO seems to be built for, nor do I like it at all.
I used guess pitch-no feedback since I played. I think it is part of baseball, I enjoy guessing along and figuring out Pitcher strategy, and now it is ruined. It has been ruined since last year, when this game went multi-platform. They have people working on "new content" regularly, but this remains broken for 2 years straight. FIX a feature that is clearly not working right, but had for the previous 10 or 12 years, and suddenly stopped before making "new content" and "live" nonsense. I could care less about any of that.
That is what I mean about feeling quite alienated by this company. By far, the best baseball game ever. It is THE GAME I live my life around when the new one will be released and play it probably 200-300 days out of the year. Seasons was taken out 2 to 3 years ago, I used it EVERY year, and now GUESS PITCH-no feedback does not work as it had for over a decade.
Why do you not care about this player, but are so intent on pleasing new players. I am not demanding anything "NEW" or altered from what it was intended to be, I just want the game to work correctly and two of the biggest things are gone/wrong.
It has fundamentally broken this game for me. I am one of the die-hards, and cannot tell you the disappointment level this brings for me.

So yuor settings are set to "Guess pitch w/ no feedback?" And you are getting feedback? Or are you getting no feedback at all? Just trying to understand what exactly you are trying to accomplish?

I miss season mode too. Use to do same thing. 21 games season w differnt teams.
Mto came out like 2 yrs after season mode was gone I think.

I did not realize that I was not clear about that. I have it set to Guess Pitch w/no feedback. It gives feedback on pitch type (blinking ball) and location (beep sound). If you guess both, and are correct, it makes the strike zone box blink and beep.
In the past, if you chose no feedback, you would get no feedback. None at all, but guess pitch was still working (the way this setting was intended).
Ever since last year when it went multi-platform, Guess Pitch w/no feedback does not work correctly. I have tested all 4 modes of Guess Pitch, the others seem to give you the indicators and confirmation they used to. From what I can tell, it is only "no feedback" working incorrectly, as it gives you feedback on any thing you guess correctly.
I apologize for any vagueness in my original post. It has me so frustrated!

No feedback was broken in TS21 too. Obviously not fixed yet. That’s disappointing
Record a clip, submit it as a bug report.

It's all good! i was merely asking so i could test it as well to help possibly find a solution and was just trying to clearly understand what to look for. But it sounds like you went through it extensively.
