@a761506_PSN said in Top 10 majorly flawed aspects of this game and their fixes:
Difficulty settings. I believe the solve to this is no more difficulty settings, the game needs to dynamically change for each player based on their skill level. This would allow a highly skilled player to play at Legend equivalent while a lesser player to play at rookie or veteran against them. The idea being, once you’ve settled in at your appropriate skill level, the entire game will be played at that skill level so you don’t have to constantly adjust to changing difficulty levels. The goal should also be to make it realistic so no team plays at a win rate of greater than 70%, against the CPU or online.
Lock-out time penalties for dashboarding. It’s a horrible aspect of this game and it must be eliminated as much as possible.
Time outs… just like MLB, a certain number of mound visits and/or breaks in the action. 30 seconds max per break.
Pitcher stamina… rather than the current system, pitchers stamina should be the actual number of full strength pitches they can throw. So, a starter like JV could have stamina of 110 pitches for instance, a reliever might have 16 pitches. And once that point is passed, the pitches all become meatballs to discourage overuse.
Warming up relievers… this could be removed from the game entirely. It seems to do nothing except add time outs to the game.
No balks automatically. Every pitcher comes set on every pitch with a runner on base. Put an end to quick pitching and bring back the cat-and-mouse aspects of the running game.
Home run robbing and jumping… these could be triggered animations, with the success rate correlated with the player’s fielding attributes.
Brightness and contrast need adjustments to prevent the ball from being practically invisible when pitched in certain locations at certain parks under certain conditions. Remove this exploit from the game.
Stolen base call outs need to be consistently called out every time.
An option to turn off the environment sounds separately from the rest of the sounds: airplanes, subways, sirens, any personalized sounds of an opponent… if someone wants to be able to play the game with only the sounds of the ball, bat, players and umps (maybe because they’ve got a sleeping spouse or child) they should be able to do so.
The Live Content survey is up, so now is a good time to let SDS know directly what you want changed.
