      Pitch colours indicator?

      Have they been made lighter? I know one of my (and many peoples) pet peeves in 10 was the darkness of the colour coded pitch history you are able to pull up between pitches.

      Has the palette of those been altered at all?

        Any ballboys/girls, Batboys? From what I saw from the Braves pics I am guessing not?

          Negative. They do not have any "child" player models in the game, thus making it not an easy thing to implement. Maybe in the future, just not now.

              I understand that how fast you push the stick forward determines velocity on fastballs but what would be the correct way to throw the most effective off-speed and breaking pitches ??

              Also does velocity work just the opposite for offspeed and breaking pitches ??

              Like if I want to throw a nasty changeup would the faster I push the stick forward make the changeup slower and more effective or faster and less effective ??

              Would the faster you push the stick forward throwing a curveball make it have more or less break ??
              The more effort you put on breaking pitches the sharper they will break. Less effort and they sort of hang which is very very bad for a breaking pitch! So in general you get pitches to fall, run and break more with increased effort.

                You may be familiar with this amazing play by Tadahito Iguchi. I'm not saying spectacular plays all the time, I'm saying sometimes, the animations get kinda boring.:I
                There are some new throwing animations. I think what will keep things fresh this year is that all players do not have the same portfolio of animations which is linked to a fielders ratings/ attributes..

                Also, another one of my pet peeves about last years game was when a speedy player reached base. It would cut to the player starting his jump and showing his base stealing stats. One problem, no stats! Just zeros! Did you fix this glitch?
                Hard to say many stat glitches were fixed.

                  Really hard to say but I pitched with Burnett and he definitely had his AJ moments. I am going to say you will probably see more of a difference when comparing top of the rotation starters to bottom starters. When comparing among all top rotation starters the difference is extremely slight imo.

                    Have they done anything to help with the dreaded suicide squeeze cheat for online play?

                          Can be simulated offline, most people use this tactic online to steal a run if they can't hit. Was wondering if the developers did something to tone this down like giving the pitcher more warning that the runner has started from third or not allowing as many successful bunts, especially with a runner on third.

                            I know it's been said that true zone hitting is used for the higher lavels (HOF, Legend) but can I still opt to use it in All-Star difficulty? I've been waiting so long for TZ hitting I'll probably pass on analog hitting altogether this year.

                              True Zone is available on those levels but the PCI is really big so alignment does not tend to be as critical.

                                Hmm, guess I'll have to hit on HOF and pitch on All-star, and add those 4 more K's. lol
