Re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

Willis;

I think you mean switch your choice as the team you want to GM and such and hand the Tigers over to the CPU.
ABSOLUTELY!
You would simply go into the profile association and move your profile to the team you want to control...and change the Tigers to either the profile you will set up for all your CPU teams or leave them as NO PROFILE.
Viola! ...you will now be running the XXXXX and the CPU will take the Tigers.
*(I think what Jim was referring to was playing any game for any team, which of course you can...it was added last year)

Thanks Knight

That is exactly what I meant... I can't wait for this game to drop. Tigers and Braves here I come!

Nice! I am definitely going to be using the Fox baseball theme in between innings!

do you have the fox/mlb outro? I found it on youtube:

Thanks, glad to hear it. Maybe I can cut down the quick stealing against me.

If you have a lefty on the mound and pick the deceptive move, they won't be stealing for very long!

Re: Community Day Questions, Answers, and Impressions

bhurst99, I've got a RTTS question. Did you play either of the middle infield positions during community day? Those are the positions I play all the time and last year I really had a hard time getting baserunners out when they were trying to steal 2nd. I don't know if the computer runner was just too fast, or if I was covering too late (even though I always got to the bag fast enough), or if my tag was slow (is this affected by attribute ratings?), or if my catcher just sucked. Have you seen this, is it any better?

I played a SS for some time in RTTS and noticed some of this too. There were times where on a double play the throw came too early and never gave you a chance to get to the bag. Also, on steals...you were "pathed" to 2nd base and positioned in front. Even if the throw came in time, the tag missed due to your players positioning. Any idea if these issues have been addressed?

If you're choosing all teams you can play as anyone. If you don't choose all teams to control you can still play as any other team on the schedule.

You could still do this in 09. But one problem was that you could only play one game each day. So if I wanted to play my game with the Rockies, and then play another game with whomever was playing the Dodgers, it wasn't available due to the games being simmed already that day. Would be nice if this was possible.

It won't play on your system.

Vary your delivery times. Once I figured out guys were using quick steal, all it takes is not being consistent on your pitches to the plate and you'll never have a problem with them again.

Baseball is a stats hungry game and I want "MLB The Show" to be a stat whore!! And I don't just mean Stats in the game menus I am talking about TONS of Stats showing on over lays few out the game!

I specifically asked for more stat overlays back at the focus test and they appear to have delivered. I was delighted by how many stat overlays they had.
