    Guys I agree but please try playing a PLAYOFF game with your sliders just sim a season and see what Im saying .
    Just lost a 14 inning game and **** happened in the end to steal the gaME FROM ME !
    Burlehe Sox pitched 9 innings 5 hitter , f in Burrell TB hit a HR out of the F in strike zone to tie it in the 5th . nevermind I can go on and on .
    Sorry SCEA should write for Hollywood this crap wrecks a great game .
    I guess ill try out slughing them next .
    Sorry im just so frustrated playing so hard , pitching like a pro for zip , for a sham , I cant possibly win so damm close .

      I just PM'd Dave am not trying to stop you guys from discovering anything, but again, you need to keep in mind a few things about LEGEND.

      1. The CPU is going to score runs on you, lots of runs unless you're at the top of your game.

      2. If I can play LEGEND and be down 12-0 after six, there is no scripting. I'm just not good enough to challenge this level.

      3. If the CPU is going to be scoring a lot of runs does it matter that you are ahead and suddenly behind? This is what LEGEND is. Nemesis and Pared are excellent gamers and they were completely frustrated at the event by how absolutely tough this level is.

      4. I think there are guys, like Dave, who can give LEGEND a challenge. There are others tat are successful. By saying the games are "always" within five runs of one another, see 2/3 above. LEGEND is not going to lie down on you.

      5. By saying you can't keep a lead, remember what level you're playing on.

      Good luck testing and hope it turns out, but there is a general panic over a difficulty mode that most people won't even go near.

      Peace.
      ok jim..i know what ure saying..but i can definalty play on legend just fine..hitting is a joke for me in anyother level, im not braging here , just telling what happens with me playing...
      i was 15-12 with my A's and 16-10 with the giants in my test season on legend...
      do u know how many game over 5 run diference there were?
      NONE...not by me and not by the AI, again,there were games i was getting beat 9-0 , 7-0 ... frustated but accepting the blow out...not evan concentrating too much, than out of nothing my guys would just start racking and everything i touched would be a hit, evan the balls out of the zone would become cheap singles throught the middle...after a inning or 2 the game would be 9-7 or evan tied...
      now how can anyone explain this? this is 53 games into my season without one single blow out.. i have come back from 10-0 man..10-0 in 2 innings!! closers are crap agasint me..i aways touch them specially if the AI has a lead over 2 runs...aways.. it can be k-rod, papelbon , or whoever u name it...

      seriously, im really glad u and most people here are not seeing this, although most of these people are NOT playing on legend, which ive already said several times i could beat the AI 9-0 on Hof ,so for me this is a Legend mode solo issue and i really hope its what dave found out(the option is backwards)..this would save this marvelous game for me..because right now im really frustated... i cant play on legend becasue of those absurd comebacks happening game in game out and i cant play on Hof cause ill be hitting .350 as a team again like in 08.

        You just hit the nail on the head with countryboy. His gamer ability allows him to keep pace with, or defeat LEGEND mode. That's just the way it is with difficulty modes.

        And for someone to say there is a cheat purposely put in the game is laughable. Unless SCEA just wanted to completely ruin their reputation with serious baseball gamers.
        I'm Dallas man but I did't feel like reading through 10 pages and didn't realize this was mainly for Legend, but I thought it may apply to every level, I guess not.

        For the people complaining about it, here's a hint, don't play on Legend. Go down to HOF or even All Star and see if you continue to lose

          hey jim,

          no one is saying that that I know of....what dave said was that SCEA made a mistake in switching the cpu comeback button.

          I really don't think anyone would say that SCEA intentionally puts cheats in the game to make it harder, they would be mistaken because that's not how SCEA rolls.

          but it is possible that they made an honest mistake. It has been done before by the NHL series, other sports and even THIS series with broken/non-functioning sliders.

          so the possibility is there....could dave be wrong? hell ya...and i will be the first to tell him eventhough it will be disappointing, but as of now his news is very encouraging.

            if the option was backwards, then you should never get blown out by the cpu, at least according to how guys are explaining how the feature works.

            If you've been blown out by the cpu with the option off, then its not the option being reversed causing you problems.

              nope...the fact that CB hold the Ai dont mean theres not a comback code there does it?
              otherwise ure basically saying that Dave wouldnt be able to hold the huge lead agaisnt the AI with comeback turned ON...
              dunno if that makes sense?

              but if ure saying that theres no comeback code with the option OFF because CB blown the AI away, we can also say that tehres no comeback code with the option ON since dave has also blown the AI away with it on, right?
              which would mean the option would be broken anyway...

                Hey Philly, no Dave and Brunnoce didn't say that, but it was said very clearly using just that term, read a little more.

                I'm not by any means criticizing Dave or anyone else for this and told Dave so in a PM, but it might be like peeing against the wind, especially if, like Dave you can challenge this mode.
                Brunnoce keeps going back to not holding a lead when it's quite obvious to most guys that if you venture into LEGEND land, prepare for an arse whipping.

                Brunnoce, you're saying that if you drop to HOF and drop all four of your hitting sliders to "0" it doesn't tone down you're hitting? (I'm not saying leave them all the way to the left, but experiment). Brunnoce you and I were the same type of hitter last year. What happened to make you have to go to LEGEND and me down to VET? Gamer ability? I dunno.

                    You sort of lost me on that one.

                    What I'm saying is Dave appears to have the talent to play on LEGEND and beat it (even though the games may be closer than he'd like), or even punch it out (sort of like the guys who breeze through HALO in three hours). How come I can't do it? I should be able to do it, right? No way, I'm not as talented a gamer as Dave, or countryboy or others who aren't seeing this as a "comeback", but just a tough, tough, mode to play on.

                    Why are you expecting an occassional blow out on a mode that is designed to kick you're butt? And why is the number 5 the magic number if the CPU is going to play you as tough as nails? I'd get down on my old knees if I even beat that level, ONCE.

                      i dont know what happened in that regard..but to get realistic hitting results i play on legend with all sliders to the left(-5)
                      anyother setting and ill have too many hits, and specially too many HRs

                      so yeh, Hof is beegin way to easy for me...i can spray the ball like ichiro on it...just not funny and way too 08 for me...
                      now again..i can definatly chalange legend level...definalty..just check my oak A's record...but what is mind bugging is the amount of close scorers , and that in both ways, with me winning or losing..its aways a close game... either its a pitching duel or a Runs festival...and again i must say, the comebacks ive had in my favor(like from a 10-0 deficit) didnt feel natural at all...balls would just jump out of my bats like they would never do before the AI opened the big lead...

                            Brunnoce,

                            Clarify this again!!!! You have to play on LEGEND with your hitting sliders all the way to the LEFT or you get too many hits/homeruns!!!! Is that right?

                            Dude, it looks like SUPER LEGEND is needed for you, lol. To me, that's absolutely unbelievable that LEGEND hitting is to easy for you unless you handicap yourself even more.
                            Wow!

                              now how can anyone explain this? this is 53 games into my season without one single blow out.. i have come back from 10-0 man..10-0 in 2 innings!! closers are crap agasint me..i aways touch them specially if the AI has a lead over 2 runs...aways.. it can be k-rod, papelbon , or whoever u name it..."

                              i dont get blow out by them neither...evan without focusing or evan pushing hard for a comeback...it just happens.
                              yes I read that..I was directing that to the community as a whole.
                              I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                              I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

                                If you don't have proof why post about it?

                                I hit a HR once off a first pitch change-up...therefore every 1st pitch change up I hit will be a HR.

                                This thread should be titled.

                                CPU Comeback set to on Impressions - makes more sense.

                                I'll agree with Jim you guys must be the greatest players ever. Have fun!
