The Base running mechanic is terrible and should not have been changed from super mega baseball 2. The stealing on the other hand gives you more options and control but should auto select to the runner for you if there is a fielding error or passed ball so you can achieve extra bases. It should also Auto select to the lead runner for regular base running and the left and right triggers kept for retreating and advancing ALL runners while the specified (ABXY) buttons still correspond to the selected base for the runner that is running while using left stick to select your runner. Like in super mega baseball 2 the player/fielder selection for fielding, diving, and jumping catches is still broken if not worse compared to super mega baseball 2. They did nerf the ability to throw out someone from right field to first base, yet i can still throw lasers to home plate and get them out(it is a very noticeable difference especially when the right fielder has very high arm strength). Umpire called strikes is terrible and inconsistent and in my opinion worse compared to super mega baseball 2. Good aspect is the graphics, teams and stadiums was improved with a wider variety of customization and cleaner gameplay. Pitching was kind of improved with more CPU “caught looking” or whiffing at a third strike. They did nerf stat buffs, like in super mega baseball 2, for players if they played well in a game, which is a good and bad thing, because this prevents over-powered and “easy” winning but also takes the joy out of being rewarded for playing well. Overall it is a good game but in my opinion super mega baseball 2 is still better in terms of playing the game. If you are not having the issues i am having, with base running and fielder selection in particular please reply and let me know what i am doing wrong.
