I took a look at how many threads have been started. DD is WAY ahead of anything else. I have never played that section of the game myself. I( only play RTTS and franchise but it does look as if DD is where the vast majority of gamer are.

I have in RTTS, it seems the I can get more hard hits thorough the infield more often. In franchise....not really. For me, it seems I just foul more balls off and never get that hard clean hit.

I have never had a problem with my bullpen. When i get one up to get ready for the next inning, I usually wait until I get 1 out. If I forget and have to quickly put him in the game, if I use the 8 practice pitches they are always ready before I even get to pitch 8. Now...I have forgot that I had a pitcher warming up and he got tired but that has only happened once or twice. What i will do if after that 1 out happens and he starts warming up and I then have a long inning, In will go back in and set it to have him come in the next inning. I have never had the pitcher come in too tired or not ready.

I have my sliders set to where I can win those games that I suppose to and have a very hard time winning against good teams. I can play the Whitesox, Athletics and win 80% of those games. I play the Yankees, Phillies, Braves, I might can win 50%. Overall I am liking to game. It has a few faults here and there, but it is a programmed game, not true to life. I still see the comeback code kicking in. I see when you get 2 outs the next batter is like super human trying to get out. But the biggest complaint I have with this game is the amount of foul balls you get. I had one batter that it took 27 pitches for him to finally fly out. That is very unrealistic.

First off your original team pretty much owns you for 5 years. Nothing to do but wait it out until you become a free agent.

I play every inning of every game in my 162 game season. It takes me a good 4 months to play a season. I do play some RTTS along the way to just break it up. I would say I play Franchise 80% or the time RTTS the other 20%.

You will see the batting average of the batter with runners on base or in scoring position come up a good bit.
The righty / lefty average is shown a good bit during the at bat. -
I have my sliders all the way to the left for foul balls and it seems it makes no difference. I have some at bats for and against me that goes well into the teens. I can pretty much say I have at least 10 or more foul balls during those at bats which happen a lot. I can have my pitcher at the 50 pitch count by the end of the second inning and still only have given up i maybe two hits and no walks.
This game would be great if two things were fixed.
1- foul balls is way over done.
2- the 2 out comeback code that kicks in.If those two things were corrected I think it would reflect a true simulation of a real game.

There is a HUGE difference between the first two out and the last one. It has nothing to do with skill related. If you go back and read the original post, I even added it happens when i am at bat. I pretty much can tell you I will get a hit when the next batter comes up with two outs. So under that assumption, then my skill set is way above average, like super human even.
No, it is a coded two out improvment that is there. -
No matter what you seem to do once you get two out on you or the other team the batter becomes some super hero while at bat.
I saw this happen over and over in 23 and now it imbedded in 24.I can throw pitches in the ground and they will foul it off. Do not dare throwing something in the strike zone. That pretty much means a double or more for sure.
Speaking of hitting doubles, I usually hit 5 or more every game. I am playing on All-star and Legand for pitching. -
I have yet to see 1 single injury in my franchise for any team. I have injuries turned on and have even moving the slider to the right some to add for the chances for an injury...nothing.

Mine does not crash but it gets stuck as soon as the game ends. You cannot do anything but restart the game to get out. Yes, you do lose that game also.

I agree the fans really affect how you see the pitch coming in. Especially during the day games. They need to add the green tarp there.
