Ah! I'll have to do that when he makes the pros or something.
I had to make my ode to Little Big League this time.

The Show might be the hardest game to play while slightly drunk.
Two hits 17 K's.....

I remade Clarence BEEFTANK for my RTTS. He named his bat Geoffrey. And I gotta say, after coming from years of MLB2K games, The Show is fucking HARD.

Has anyone that uses Pure Analog for hitting have instances where your batter will lean forward and back on its own. Seems like my controller has a mind of its own. Coule just be a controller issue I guess. Any ideas

That moment in Manager mode and you correctly call for a pitchout

Ripping a ball down the third base line with a lefty, it bonces off the bag and into left field, two runners score on the play, to take a 7-6 lead in the 9th.

This is going to sound crazy, but have we discovered any cheats within the game yet? I've played through a couple seasons in Franchise and Road to the Show, and going after trophies isn't my cup-o-tea. Just really want to have more fun before I transition over to FIFA in honor of the World Cup starting (don't hate!).
I'll come back to my franchise once the Cup's finished.

No, those count as an at bat.

While intoxicated I have a chanteup speed bat. If those happen to be in the middle of the plate I can hit them.
If you're looking for a game to play while having a couple of beers the show is the wrong choice. You need every bit of reaction time to hit those fastballs.

Looks like MLB 14 The Show for the PS4 was a big success - it's the fastest selling game in the franchise's history:

Has there been any news on patching to reduce the bugginess of online play? Mainly when one player sees the ball overthrown when it's not actually happening

if you idle long enough while pitching the Umpire will use the bat as a fishing rod

Okay I dont know if this is a bug or not but signing free agents and when players get moved up from Triple A to the Majors or vice/versa, their player photo changes to a created player model.
Its really annoying because the actual player photo was there until the transaction occurred.

Usually around All-Star break(July) it drops to $40 at some stores. It did when I bought MLB11 and MLB12 in their respective years.

Definitely thinking I need a new controller. In RttS, anytime a ball is put in play my pitcher constantly dives, over and over.
Rented this from Redbox today -- as did my brother. Pretty disappointing. The graphics don't look next-gen at all and the frame-rate clearly drops during almost every cutscene. And when my brother and I tried to find a way to play a game online against each other, the only option is for both of us to click Online Exhibition and hope it puts us together? And what the fuck is with the counts being randomized during Online Exhibition? As in, as soon as I come up to bat, the count is already 3-2. Glad I didn't buy this.

You guys probably had quick counts on. Its a way to speed up the game.

i've been begging for over 5 years.
Online is cumbersome. To challenge each other online there are several steps that have to take place.
1. Both of you have to be 'online'. It doesn't happen automatically when you boot so you have to initiate something online.
2. Press the touchpad.
3. Go to friends and challenge him.
4. He has to touch middle pad while being 'online' and accept your challenge.
5. Hope and pray that the game doesn't randomly freeze and boot you both to an error screen.

anyone having problems starting the game? i start it and it goes to black right as the announcer starts talking upon the game startup. then i get an error saying the sony entertainment network is undergoing maintenance.
not sure why that would prevent me from starting the game...

Mine seemed to take longer loading the intro when I was playing earlier today, but fine otherwise, damn maintenance needs to been done already.
Edit: I got called up to the majors and am on such a hot streak I actually got an intentional walk.

There's no demo currently and AFAIK, there isn't one scheduled.

The Blue Jays traded me R.A. Dickey and Adam Lind for a Triple A pitching prospect...
I think I should be charged with robbery because I took the deal...
Like I didn't want R.A. Dickey and Adam Lind.

I haven't gotten the glitch where the players turn all blacked out, but I did get one where my RTTS guy turned florescent pink. I'd upload a screenshot but PSN seems to be down for me.
Happened to me twice, whole stadium went red once and purple the second time

Man, was pitching a gem with sherzer and had a perfect game going into the 7th. Hit a guy, walked a guy, dropped a pop out, and gave up a grand slam with 2 outs. Lose 4-1.

My bullpen (Tigers) is tearing me apart Lisa!
I blew two games because of idiotic decisions on my part.
I put Joe Nathan into a game late and didn't realize his stamina was shot. He blew the lead and we loss.
I hate when I lose due to my pitching but I deserve it.
This game is crack dammit.
I played about 11 games (quick counts, fast broadcast on most)
I CAN'T STOP PLAYING.
AND I'M NOT EVEN MAD WHEN I LOSE, IT JUST WANTS ME TO PLAY BETTER.
I am happy with my hitting improvements though.

Awesome news they are selling well. I can't bite on the first one though. Let's hope they put all that manpower into making 15 a true next gen experience.
If you want to get that trophy just use sliders that help you (max contact, foul frequency etc.) and increase CPU strike frequency.
Also increase stats for your players and decrease pitching staff stats. I believe you can download some rosters that already have that changes made.
I wish but I doubt it.....

So this just started happening, but now it seems like every time I boot up MLB after turning on my ps4, it gets stuck at a black screen immediately before the title screen even loads. I have to close the app, submit an error report, and then the next time(s) I launch it it works fine.
Anyone else experience this?

Had that happen a few nights ago. Just going to chalk it up to the game not booting up properly. Seems to be fine now.
