Pitcher confidence should impact the ability to locate pitches and possibly throw 1-2 mph harder or more break on an off-speed pitch. It should have nothing to do with hitting outcomes. Also, line drive outs should be lowering pitch confidence.

Maybe some sort of compromise would be you get at least one team affinity voucher if you complete 3 missions or something. Defeat the first mini boss it's another voucher. That way people who struggle can still earn something out of it and people who don't struggle aren't really affected

I've played about 3 RS games and 4 events games today. Fielding not better imo, honestly felt worse

Thanks for the post. I feel making pitcher confidence affect hitting outcomes is one of the poorer decisions they've made in the last couple of years.

Just wondering, are there any plans to adjust starter stamina regen, or increase stamina usage when used out of the pen. Using multiple starters a game right now shouldn't be the META.

This to me is the most pressing need in ranked seasons

I'm 38 myself, definitely not as easy to react to upper 90's fastballs as 16 or 17 for me

Age 37 and went to the monitor a few years ago. It's like PED's for us older guys!!

I won't the deny that the game has some flaws but it's still funner than 18 and 19 imo with potential to be as good as 16 and 17. Plus this community is 100x less corrosive than 2k

Can you imagine how much people would complain about the nose tackle glitch in tecmo super bowl?! "Patch it! This game is unplayable"

Mark Grace, Sandberg, Sosa

Just nerf the sinker and I'll be happy

This topic is a tough issue for me because there games are incredible, and I mean that from the perspective of someone who grew up playing sports games in the 90's. I couldn't of comprehended something like the show while I was playing rbi baseball.

That being said I get all the frustrations with today's games and agree with many of the complaints listed in previous posts.

Something I might add is the impact YouTubers have had on sports sims in my opinion. I feel the impact has been mostly negative, especially in games like 2k and Madden. A lot of players now just try and learn the exploits which leads to frustrating and repetitive online gameplay.

My hope is we see a big jump in gameplay on the next gen.

Agreed, starting to face a lot of bunters now online. Really ruins part of this game

Get rid of the umpire cut scene for check swings please.

For strike zones, SDS needs to look at MLB umpire strike zone maps and adjust accordingly. Pitches an inch or two outside get called strikes with decent regularity

Marlins Al Leiter made me think of how cool a Kevin Brown would be. Pretty nasty duo

I would love the chance to be in this

Hope not

I like the added difficulty. I don't think I've had a throwing error in the past 3 years. I had 4 in my first couple games of the beta. It's a good thing imo

I'm torn on the pitching. I think two simple things they could do is increase velocity and the size of the strike zone. MLB pitchers tend to get an inch or two off the black on the outside corner.
Also contact should be reduced on poorly timed swings out of the strike zone. But I like the challenge of pitching right now.

Keep in mind that few people are high enough to be playing on the higher difficulties in RS so the game might play better up there

16 or 17
