General:
New rule changes have been made to offline Homerun Derby:
Timer and outs have been eliminated.
Every swing counts toward a player’s allotted swings.
Round 1:
20 total swings
no bonus round
no first round bracket format
Tiebreaker: longest home run distance
Round 2 and Final Round:
15 total swings
Tiebreaker: three-swing swing-off
Additionally, in any round, a player who homers on their final allotted swing earns additional swings until they fail to hit a homer.
Updated All-Star Game rosters have been added.
Gameplay:
Bear Down Improvements:
Each Bear Down pitch will now guarantee a top end speed output for each pitch.
The PAR will now be even smaller when perfect input is achieved.
For hitters: increased PCI size on same-handed breaking pitches down and away. These pitches remain the most difficult to square up and time but have been adjusted to be less punitive.
Diamond Dynasty:
Fixed a bug where team logos would show a default logo in the Standings screen.
Player Likeness Updates:
NOTE: Likeness updates will take effect after a content update around noon PT on 7/9.
