If you play with auto fielding and auto throwing and auto base running then it is perfectly fine, otherwise it is totally game breaking. If you play with any only one or two of those options on auto the game is literally unplayable. Also, get rid of the blue circle under the players on auto fielding.

If you play on legend at max pitch speeds then they should be the same as real life, everything else should scale accordingly.

This game plays fantastic offline in an actual baseball game, these forums are beyond cancerous, I'm out.

Here's an objective for ya, play a complete 162 game franchise , plus spring training and hopefully you'll go all the way in the post season. That should keep you occupied for a while.

These forums seem to be overrun by online DD (complainers) read as: players, and I understand that mode is the companies money maker and that franchise hasn't seen as much love as we would like, but there are a ton of franchise guys out there , even if they don't post here a lot and MLB 20 is the best [censored] baseball game ever made. Keep up the good work!

One of the biggest mistakes they ever made was getting rid of individual commentary audio sliders. I want to hear the count but not all the painfully repetitive jibber jabber. Regardless of who makes up the commentary team, they need to record at least 10 times the amount of audio dialogue.

Actually you DO NOT want to use CPU Roster control. You want to use 30 team control. Set up two different profiles, one for you and one for the cpu.

Why is there no Nike catchers gear when the Nike logo is plastered all over the ballparks and the players have the swoosh on their jerseys. That makes absolutely zero sense to me.

Tons of people use auto fielding, and myself and plenty of others have sent in bug reports.

“All the arguing in the world can't change the decision of the umpire.”

That is going to be dependent on your personal sound system / headphones.

There are a few teams that have a massive amount of 1pm day games that do not correlate with the real life schedule. Please fix ASAP!

No, you can do it manually, have the cpu do random fantasy trades or turn trades completely off.

Still no fix to wrong audio commentary and on screen displays in franchise. Also no fix for wrong schedule start times in franchise. Both of those issues must be fixed to properly start a franchise, just saying.

I didn’t notice those issues playing Franchise. Granted I have only played like 10 games so far.

The audio and on screen displays will tell you that you're fixing to sweep a team when you are just starting your 2nd game of 3 and the osd shows that you've already played 2 games and the scores are wrong for those games, one of which hasn't happened yet.

The big thing though is that the schedule game start times for a few of the west coast teams is basically all 1pm all year long, which is no where close to the real schedule.

Still no fix to wrong audio commentary and on screen displays in franchise. Also no fix for wrong schedule start times in franchise. Both of those issues must be fixed to properly start a franchise, just saying.

If you mean simulation as compared to arcade, so that the players stats mean the most, then you want to use directional / classic.

Why not use 30 team control and play with any team you want in the same franchise?

@the_dragon1912 said in Ranked Seasons / Why play online if your only going to throw balls?:

MLB players don't swing at balls, or the pitchers would throw them more often. Quit swinging at them

To be fair, MLB players swing at balls all the time. A lot more often than you might think.

Simulation

It's user based instead of ratings / user based. But personally, I think it's a little too sensitive.

Edit: It needs to be a little easier, not much but a little bit.
