Yeah check swings need to get fixed. Not only the example you gave but there have been many times where I have swung, perfect looking timing and it gives me a check swing. It gets pretty frustrating.

@autiger7222_psn said in Fielder And Baserunner Speed In DD:

Am I the only one that thinks fielder speed is way too fast and baserunner speed is way too slow in DD? It's basically impossible to split the gap in a DD game or get it over an outfielder's head. It shouldn't be that hard to get a well hit ball (100 plus MPH exit velo) over an outfielder's head but it's all but impossible. On the flip side, getting an infield hit is pretty much out of the question. Heck, even scoring from 2nd on a single is quite a challenge. A guy with 80 speed should score easily from 2nd but it's always a bang bang play cause everything throw is right on the money. Tagging up to move up a base? Fuhgeddaboudit!!

I don't think the fielders speed is the problem so much, bc a bunch of people have Byron Buxton. The throws seem ridiculous this year tho. They consistently hit 2nd base on a line from the right/left center gap. It shouldn't hit that clean all the time

Conquest always matches up #1 vs. #1, #2 vs #2 and so on. It's based off of the order they are in when you select your pitcher, not the order they're in on your Team Management Screen. Play Vs. CPU always had them off set. In 2020 it went #5 (You) vs #1 (CPU), #4 vs. #5, #3 vs. #4 and so on. I think in 2021 they either reversed that order or bumped it down 2 Positions? I'm not 100% sure. But you also gotta remember after Roster Updates, those positions can change. And when you're dealing with teams that have multiple common SP's all around the same overall...it depends on who their actual starters are. Some of those guys are on the 40 man roster, but they may not be in the actual rotation. I'm sure some teams may have a 62 Wade Miley type as their #5 starter instead of some 63 or 64 no namer that has no MLB experience.

I’d much rather have a few moments for the program to work on each week than a boatload to get done dropped all at once.

They have to have something in the coding that rigs it against you for some of these challenges because tbh it's complete BS how hard some of these are to complete when its locked in on rookie or veteran difficulty. Baseball can be random, or unpredictable but this is stupid as hell. Just change the difficulty setting SDS, instead of whatever stupid [censored] code is in there to make things more "challenging" when it doesn't make it more challenging at all, what it does is sabotage good hits, plays, whatever. So stupid.
