I am actually enjoying this game. It looks like there was some fine tuning done to player models and more of an emphasis on player faces. So far I'm two games into my Franchise and am playing this more than The Show. This game just feels and plays fun and like baseball. I'm surprised to be honest.

If this hasn't been answered later I will check-it myself & let you know. I am stepping out to take my grandson to see Jack the Giant Killer. I probably won't get back on @ least until 8pm EST

Yeah, they have in the three games I've played so far. They even pinch hit for a right handed hitter against a right handed pitcher with a left handed bat. It was a weak hitter they pinch hit for with a good left handed hitter vs right handed pitchers.

The fielding does seem to be a bit smoother and tighter.

These are the impressions that people want to hear about. Keep it coming.

Agreed. I feel like they focused on things more into gameplay and how the game looks. I haven't really seen many WTF moments yet, besides me messing up on fly balls. I just dove right into franchise mode and so far no bugs or freezes.

This is what I was saying yesterday... Maybe they did under the hood stuff instead of what companies usually do.

How are the homerun totals?
I found last year, playing with classic hitting, I had to up the power to about 65 or more in order to get any HR's.
Has that been improved?

Also, if you do play with analog hitting, are you able to hit any dingers using contact swing? Or do you still need to use power-swing to get any HR's?

Thanks!
