Animation Suggestion: Ball in to dugout on DP

texasmame · 07-15-2023, 01:16 PM

IRL, it used to be much more common when you could take out the fielder at 2b, but I'd like to see the ball get thrown in to the dugout on a failed DP attempt.

Agree, this would be a nice addition.

Half the time dugouts are in different locations especially in historical ballparks. Going into the stand makes more sense.

Your request echoes mine for infield hit+error animations.

For whatever reason, I don't have dugouts in my one stadium that I use.

Don't know what to do correct it.... it's a default minor league stadium.

With the screens around the infield, I'd think the stands would be less likely.

Truthfully, my vote would be for the existing play-by-play animations to be cleaned up a little bit before more get added in.

I don't mean that as a knock at all. The game looks great and I don't expect perfection, but as others have already said - the play by play visuals don't always accurately match the play by play text of what's happening. Example being I had a shortstop catch an infield pop up about 20 rows into the stands down the 3rd base line a few days ago. Would rather see that kind of stuff cleaned up as much as possible before more stuff starts getting added in.

Just my opinion.
