cpu throws wayyyyy too many balls on rookie
-
Just started a conquest game w 3 walks in a row ffs
-
I'm a horrible hitter and swing at way to much trash, yet still my walks are up 100% from last year, And 75% of all at bats get to a full count. Every year the cpu pitch accuracy gets worst. Even more baffling is the amount of Hit batters I get when in a 0-2 count
I guess at least my runs per game are up a bit but no one finds looking at the ball bounce in the opposite batters box to be fun
-
There is what I can only assume is a bug where every pitch the CPU throws has a "Very Late" release
Higher difficulties will see less walks, but the issue is still thereThe more this gets spread the more hopefully people start seeing it as a bug and not an intentional game change.
-
Me vs CPU rookie mode, CPU pitcher 23 pitches thrown, 1 pitch was in the strikezone.. this is crazy. I find myself striking out just to get some action. I understand that player vs player might feel good at hitting, but being an offline player, it's a horrible experience.
-
I don’t play the conquest maps on rookie but the storylines moments are locked in on rookie and I swear I walked more getting those 4 players than in a weeks worth of franchise games.
-
Major issue. I will bump this every day until it's fixed.
I would say a full HALF of all my at-bats start 3-0, and perhaps 5-10% start with an actual strike.
That's gross.
-
They need to seriously do something about this. I’ve seen a lot of topics on it. I hardly walk at all, swing a lot. Maybe walked like a total of 3 times last year. Ive walked over 10 times so far this year and it would be more if I didnt swing at a lot of garbage.
Needs to be fixed for rookie moments for TB missions because walks don’t count there
-
It's terrible. On Veteran too. And there not just Balls....They're absolutely Terrible Pitches. So many Walks and HBP's. I get it, trains you to be patient, but I'm not trying to be Patient in CPU Games...I'm here to get through these conquest games as fast as possible or at least Grind Stats for PXP. If you awarded me in any way for drawing a walk, I probably wouldn't care.
-
Forgot about the HBP thing. That's terrible too...shouldn't bad pitchers throw MORE meatballs????
FIX THIS.
-
The high number of walks / balls is horrible. It extends the game an extra 5-10 mins per conquest game. Slows down progression (on top of XP being nerfed). Makes that 1,150,000 XP in the program path EXTREMELY difficult to get grinding non-pvp.
-
The Beta (early access) is about over, and we need this bug (or whatever) patched asap... Walking every AB is useless, because we need the hitting stats for programs. Playing on Veteran, AS, etc. are not much better. While grinding for stats should be somewhat time consuming, it should also be a simple experience. We should not have to spend three minutes drawing a walk to first base every ab.
-
Bump. Pin this, SDS. lol
-
But the game is so goooooooooooooood right?
-
@Bearsfan217 the game is extremely good, people complaining about balls is a patience problem.
-
I say this every year but they SHOULD add another way to complete moments. Between the lack of strikes thrown, super platinum defensive plays, and RNG, something has to give. I propose the following: Make all pitchers bp pitchers(they throw more strikes), accept 1500 stubs to unlock the moments or exchange of an unopened show pack, or(my favorite option) have an ULTRA Digital Deluxe version where you pay more for the game, but have the option to skip any moment at any time to progress but sacrifice the stubs/xp gained but gain the needed cards.

Last year's WBC classic had a moment 2 xbh with Joey Meneses and I could never do it. I tried twice a week the entire season and got beaned, walked, lined out, or hit 2 singles. Extra money to the company would have solved that
-
I realize that games will not be bug free I mean look at some of the best games like a Skyrim and such that were complete bug fests but by most are considered a classic. However now days games are released 3 to 6 months early or maybe not tested right cause of crunches by a studio plus other things. What I am tired of and I legit thought SDS was better then that was making US be the beta testers on the early access of the game that to boot we paid MORE for that right.
BREAKING NEWS -- I am not feeling that lucky cause all this stuff makes me not want to play as much even taking out the fact the XP caps seem screwed up for some still not sure on that but something is off there too ( I think ) -- SDS it's now Monday and still ZERO from you guys not even a simple post saying something like --- Hey were aware of all the game issues and were still gathering data and such from that and were trying to work on it and not sure when this all gets fixed but we are trying so thanks for your patience etc etc
Would this be that hard to do ?? --- I know someone is going to say if they have to do that then that takes them away from fixing stuff but making a simple post would take less then a minute so I do not want to hear any of that garbage.

@chucky97___ said in cpu throws wayyyyy too many balls on rookie:

No, it's not. 75% of at-bats on rookie should NOT start 2-0 or 3-0.
That is clearly not a patience problem; it is clearly a design/programming problem.

Currently in the 5th inning against Detroit on Rookie in DD, I am facing Skubal he couldn't make it through the 4th inning, he walked me 7 times throwing over 40 balls and TBH more like 50 balls cause I started swinging cause I was desperate, I have managed to score 5 runs on 3 hits somehow but yeah I think something needs to be fixed.
-
I'm beginning to think it's intentional. I'm wondering if they hired the blue Jay's pitching coach and their pitching strategists. If you're a Jay's fan like me you know the pain of the starter barely making it through the 5th inning because they are cl9se to, if not past 100 pitches by then.
