Re: Dynamic Difficulty?
Co-sign to this...
It's not uncommon to have "Level Bias" regarding sliders and settings in sports games, but gameplay remains the key to a satisfying end result...
I hope that going forward, there's an option to toggle off the progress reports...
I'd rather not have the reminder / distraction...

Re: Dynamic Difficulty?
I have to echo this. I've always been a slider/difficulty snob but with sliders that feel right for me and DD, this game is really enjoyable. I had a first ever with my Cubs franchise. Travis Wood throwing a no-hitter. I felt like I earned every pitch, especially in the late innings. Loving the game and so glad I jumped the Xbox ship.Comment

Re: Dynamic Difficulty?
These are the same settings I use for DD expect Human power at 5. I did not adjust hitting for either team.The game still has me at Rookie + for batting. I am 15-6 and just dropped 3 in a row to the Dodgers.I have played a few exhibition games on All Star and hitting was not an issue.I like DD it just makes me feel bad, since it is taking forever to go up from Rookie + . I have been at least a vet/allstar hitter in every other show. The games however have had realistic hits etc, so no huge issues with DD for me.This is how I'm rolling. With Dynamic Difficulty, the only sliders I have touched are......
Human Power - 4
Human Reliever Stamina - 3
Human Pitch Control - 3
Human Pitcher Consistency - 3
CPU Reliever Stamina - 3
CPU Pitcher Control - 3
CPU Pitcher Consistency - 3
CPU Strike Frequency - 3
Pitch Speed - 6
Fielder Run Speed – 2
Fielder Reaction - 8
Fielder Arm Strength - 4
Baserunner Speed - 4
Wind - 4
Injury Frequency - 6
I'm pretty sure that's it. Everything else is default. Playing with the Royals, and using Pulse, and Timing.Last edited by Chetballard; 05-17-2014, 05:19 PM.Comment

Re: Dynamic Difficulty?
I have always insisted on playing the game on All-Star. I am using DD and am realizing now why I have always been so frustrated with hitting. I'm not anywhere CLOSE to an All-Star hitter. I've made it up to Veteran+ but right now have been sent back to AA ball, i.e. Rookie+. I was even demoted to Rookie for a stretch.
The day that DD promotes me to All Star will be like winning the World Series for me. I hate the reality of my own ineptness but love that DD is now a part of The Show!Comment

Re: Dynamic Difficulty?
I've made it to All-Star+ for my SS in AA. Hitting pretty well.
What does everyone do with their fielding settings? I don't know if I like the manual catch on the infield or not, along with meter throwing, I feel like it makes it pretty challenging to play SS.Comment

Re: Dynamic Difficulty?
I've played over 20 games now with DD and my hitting hasn't changed an inch. Any progression or regression is quickly rectified or remedied.
I am an All-Star level hitter.
Now my pitching, on the other hand, has been relatively unstable. I went 4 games on AS+, got promoted for 2 games to HOF (and got killed), played another 9 games on AS+ (then got promoted again), and am now on my 3rd game on HOF pitching (again!).
Here's the thing. I use Classic with QC's. HOF is brutal with how erratic the Classic interface is. I'm tempted to "force" a demotion but still plan on trying to play my way through it.
My problem with HOF/QC/Classic is the walks. AS+ felt perfect to me.
Tonight I plan on pumping the strike zone even more and seeing where that takes me. My best guess is that I'll either:
A. Play my way out of it and adjust. Or...
B. Get demoted anyway.
Any Classic DD'ers out there? What level are you currently on?Comment

Re: Dynamic Difficulty?
I am a pulse DDer but my experience is exactly like yours
I am 18-12 right now with the Nats. My hitting has been on veteran plus for a while, very stable
Pitching wise I will be on all star plus and be getting awesome results, then I got put up to HOF after a shutout by Strasburg and got completely shelled for three straight games. Back to all-star plus and have gone 2-1 but am on verge of getting bumped up again. Wish I could lock it into all star plus. Perfect for me
On HOF I cannt locate a breakimg ball whatsoever no matter who I'm throwing"Successful people do not celebrate in the adversity or misfortune of others."

I feel EXACTLY the same way.
AS+ is my happy place and I'm half tempted to throw an exhibition game so I can get back there. LOL!
I won't really do that. I trust this game immensely. But I agree with you on wishing I could just select it for awhile.Comment

Re: Dynamic Difficulty?
Quick question for those who may know the answer, because I certainly don't.
Had to leave the house suddenly yesterday in the seventh inning of a game. Does Dynamic Difficulty "save" your progress, even if you have to fast forward to the end of a game due to lack of time?
Just wondering if having to do that reset my "progress"Comment

I would think so, but I don't know.Quick question for those who may know the answer, because I certainly don't.

Re: Dynamic Difficulty?
Yes it does save. There were a couple times in exhibition games that i would fast forward the pitching/defense till then end, then come back in another game and it was where i left off.Quick question for those who may know the answer, because I certainly don't.
