SDS must have put their "fielding fix" patch in without even testing it, because every game there are at least 2 or 3 plays where outfielders do not lock on to pop ups or line drives. The state of the game right now is totally unacceptable. I wish we would all boycott micro transactions until it is fixed.

Yep, thought I was suckered again to spend 37,500 stubs for the new Headliners Packs.....and then the unthinkable happens......American League.....CENTER FIELD.....LIVEEEEEE SERRRRRIIIIIEEEEEESSSSS................................................................................................................................................george springer....fml

Pitching is so bad right now. When you have diamond pitchers that get a perfect and then miss their spot by a foot or more something is really really wrong. It has never been this broken in any show that I can remember. Because of this it brings back the people that in previous iterations of the show would not be able to hit. They just sit and wait for the ones that come over the middle and boom. It is ridiculous. And how is directional hitting this year? I am tempted to use it until they fix the hitting that they broke.

Last 2-3 years I have been a consistently championship and even making world series a couple times. This year just feel horribly different. It's like 50/50 no matter who I play....It's like people that are way worse than me are beating me. I know one of the reasons is because of the broken pitching, but it seems like everyone can hit almost the same. So I tried directional hitting a couple of times and look what happens.....I hit as good if not better with directional hitting than I do with zone. It is ridiculous how solid the hits are when it takes way more skill to use zone hitting. So what the heck is going on compared to previous seasons of the show???? How can it be this way. No way should I hit better with directional when I have over .900 OPS with zone hitting. I wanted to test the theory that people that actually arent any good can all of a sudden hit now with directional hitting....and that was it. What is SDS going to do about this cause we can't have it like this.

Because it’s better that way

To who? The majority of players would not agree with you.

Why in the world would they make the pitch speeds faster than what they are in The Show 19??? They definitely are. Just play each and you will see. It makes ZERO sense to have them different.

If they don't change something to make hitting easier and fix pitching, people will be leaving in droves from this game. I think 19 was the best in terms of how it played. It was addictive. This version of the game makes me want to play Warzone, and MLB the Show is by far my favorite game. I mean like what exactly did they do in the latest function patch (1.0.5). It isn't playing any different.

PCI size and pitch speeds are a big part of the problem.

Everyone is talking about hitting, but pitching is an even bigger problem. SDS needs to fix this ASAP. It is ridiculous when you have perfect input and the pitch is a foot or more different than the spot.

It has become ridiculous. The bunt cheese is back in full effect this year.

I was just playing someone that may be the worst ever yet he was 18-12 in ranked seasons. I was winning 8-0 and right after hitting another homer it seems like he found a way to freeze the game. It would be too coincidental for it to be an accidental freezing and it looks like he must be taking advantage of this happening or causing it to happen.

Fix pitching please

Has anyone seen it where you hit a ball to the outfield and the running freezes halfway between the plate and first? I hit the ball in the gap and the runner just froze. Couldn't do anything to make him move. My opponent seemed stunned on what to do and eventually ran to first to get me out because even the game didnt know to cover first in that situation. First time this has happened to me...just wonder if other have seen it.

Anyone think they reduced the pack odds with this half off sale? I just ripped 100 packs with 0 diamonds.

Ummmm what happened to the game overnight? Are we just going to pretend that nothing happened? OK Cool

I agree with you, something happened.

I just want to see what everyone’s records are this year, I’m 18-0

Interesting...

Yes your record says 18-0 however I just counted at least 16 games that you were trailing when the game ended and several that were tied, most of those tied at 0-0. In the 52 games of yours against online opponents only 4 went 7 innings more, The average of all the others is about 3, maybe 4.

Yes, I did check your stats, nothing better today.

People have found a way to lag out/or crash the game where it gives them the win. I have had it happen too many times. I am sure this guy is one of those guys.

@Weshill627 said in Ranked seasons records:

80-37, last season ruined my record. That May 12th patch ruined hitting. Hopefully i can only lose 5 games or less this season.

Yes it did very much break hitting. They need to abolish directional hitting too.

Pitching has been one way for this game for the last 5+ years and this year it is completely and utterly broken. Why have they not fixed it???? Why SDS Why???? For the Timmys that cant hit and have to rely on pitches randomly floating into the middle? How can a diamond pitcher pitch it perfect on the meter but over a foot away from their mark when they still have a lot of stamina and confidence??? Why SDS why? Pitching shouldnt have been touched in the game. I ain't even bringing up the broken hitting this year...Save that for another thread. Oh and Fielding is still broken too btw.

PITCHING IS BROKEN. PITCHING IS BROKEN. PITCHING IS BROKEN. PITCHING IS BROKEN. PITCHING IS BROKEN. PITCHING IS BROKEN. PITCHING IS BROKEN. PITCHING IS BROKEN. PITCHING IS BROKEN. PITCHING IS BROKEN.
