@PennStateFencer said in MVP 2005 THE BEST BASEBALL GAME EVER MADE PERIOD:

This is definitely just my opinion, but I thought 19 was as good as 17. Some things were worse, sure, but some things were definitely better. Line outs were ridiculous at times, but at least contact hitters were usable.

My opinion is graphics better every year and gameplay worse every year, only real improvements since 17 besides graphics are catchers blocking the ball this year. I only play franchise but unlike many I don’t need anything added to franchise just absolutely need gameplay to be back to playing real organic baseball. Base running has taken several steps backwards, their so called fielding upgrades are a joke, much worse. The tuning of the game is off in so many ways and when I make slider changes to fix a problem it just creates other problems. I am totally sick of the built in drama in games . I would just love to get back to playing a real baseball game again. Went back to 17 again 2 weeks ago and having great games again but it’s hard to adjust back to the graphics. Never thought I would say this but at this point I don’t ever see myself buying this game again but that’s ok with them as because I don’t play DD or RTTS so I don’t spend enough money to matter.

One thing is correct for sure , this game is trash . Got worse every year since 17 and is now broken unplayable garbage.

Just don’t say “flat out”ever again please

That’s cool then , all that matters to me is that it plays better offline

My understanding is that the controls work the same online as offline and I just don’t want the game messed up because someone wants to cheese online to dominate others , if it doesn’t work the same online as offline then I apologize . I have zero interest to play garbage baseball online wether I am good or bad at it so that really doesn’t matter to me

Are you talking about meter or analog pitching? Because with analog I can put the pitch where I want too often and the OP said analog

If I understand you correctly, you are saying I don’t count because I don’t play online ?? I am sorry but I don’t want the pitching to be dominant if I play another human or the cpu . I just want realistic results either way , if I make a good pitch great but if my movements are not perfect I should not be able to place pitches where I meant to constantly and that is exactly how it was before 19 and is still a bit too easy still .

Personally disagree with you on analog pitching needing to be more precise. Imo they improved it greatly in 19 . I actually can miss once and a while and walk someone , was way too dominating before. I actually think that they need to make it even harder to hit your spots.
