Re: MLB 11 The Show - Analog Hitting/Pitching Miscellaneous Tips

Hitting in real baseball based on guessing only has to do with the hitters stride used mostly with no strike counts and hitters counts when the % pitch is usually a fastball , striding based on what he is looking for , most hitters now are taught to look for something 1 ball away from his power zone and moving into his zone on hitters counts and slightly moving away in pitchers even counts. This is why hitters like Albert , Manny , Ted Williams until ahead in the count looked slider because you can adjust from 84-88MPH to 82- 78 breaking stuff rather than trying to hit a 95 MPH fastball and adjust to a 78 MPH change. I will see how the new guess pitch works and give feedback if its right or not but anytime you don't allow a player to make his pitch because someone guesses that could be a huge problem. You can guess Strausberg fastball all you want if you don't see enough pitches and time it before trying to attack he is going to blow you away lol |
Re: MLB 11 The Show - Analog Hitting/Pitching Miscellaneous Tips
I've read over some of this thread. Just signed up here but I've played MLB 09 and MLB '10 pretty avidly. Bought MLB 11 the day it was released. When playing MLB 09 / 10 I always played on legend with pitching and hitting. I did really well with the PCI. My general strategy was to guess fastball most of the time and react to off speed pitches. I did REALLY well even when I guessed wrong most of the time (I was using default 1/4 for pitch guessing). However, on MLB 11 it seems like hitting has now become impossible. Everything I hit is always a weak ground ball or "just missed" foul ball. Even pitches that seem like I square up perfectly aren't going ANYWHERE. Not to mention if I guess a pitch and I'm wrong, hitting the pitch is nearly impossible.
Anyways I'm really struggling with hitting in MLB '11 after having so much success in previous versions. Did they just make it to where hitting is like 10x more difficult? For what its worth, I tried analog and had decent success, but i'm pretty bad at the whole timing thing. I kinda want to stick with PCI zone controls b/c I've used them for SO long, but if I cant even hit the ball then I might have to go to analog. Any tips or info on this would be much appreciated. |

You used to lose control of your meter as a pitcher as well with No Feedback. This was no longer the case last year. If you want to play with feedback on, then this is the penalty/reward you have to deal with. Guess pitch with feedback is more a video game feature than a representation of real baseball. No Feedback is where it is at. Thanks again for putting that in Brian. It's the only way to play the game online/head to head IMO. |
Re: MLB 11 The Show - Analog Hitting/Pitching Miscellaneous Tips
Analog pitching? Loving it sometimes the right stick locks down and it won't go up:lol: . At times when it locks it 's directly in the zone (on the line) and it's a strike. Most often it's in the dirt. Is this a mechanical/me problem or a glitch. What am I doing incorrectly?

Re: MLB 11 The Show - Analog Hitting/Pitching Miscellaneous Tips
Here's a couple things that helped me and I was TERRIBLE at hitting. I got these from the forums right here.
Always take the first pitch. If it's a strike, he'll likely throw a junk ball away (or at least expect this). If it's a ball, he likely throw a strike to stay in the count (again, expect this). I rather guess location than type of pitch and this works for me. When I use to think fastball and saw a fastball coming, I'd get excited and swing away - BAD MOVE. I don't use the strike zone / pci. I have Guess Pitch on but only use it when I'm down in the count. Wide setting for batter. ..my 2 cents |
