Official MLB 11 The Show - Q&A Thread

[EnigmaNemesis]

Depending on what level you are using, it is all about the angle you push the stick. To far and it is a wide throw

To fix this there are 2 options

Turn Meter OFF for throwing which puts the players ratings to use in terms of throw power so all you have to do is get the throw there but not worry about power

Or go to sliders and reduce the throwing errors

Never turned it off at the CE, so with it off the power is determined by the fielder and the situation and his ratings, but you still control the accuracy correct?

As in it only turns off the power meter, but leaves the accuracy? Or turns off both?

Ramone's post...

Turning the meter off only turns off the graphic if you want to just use the player ratings to determine the outcome and nothing else. Turn throwing to buttons not analog.

So you are still controlling the power as well as accuracy, it is just "hidden"?

I was under the impression that ON means you get the feedback and analog control and on No Feedback you get no icon but full analog control is still there and on OFF the speed of the throw is based on ratings of the players but I still have analog control of the accuracy?

That is what I got from that

I went through all 71 pages looking for franchise info and the only thing I saw was the report on relief pitcher usage. Can anyone else who does sim ahead (Not CB) do some simming and check out some trades, standings, awards, free agents in the next season type stuff please?

Will Dodger Stadium have field degradation this year? It hasn't had it for the past two years and I don't know if this is some kind of overlooked glitch or if it is some kind of PS3 limitation and Dodger Stadium was the unlucky stadium to get left out of this graphical feature.

But it has been pissing me off.

I did an analysis somewhere.

Less name players are traded, although teams that are in "rebuilding" mode will be committed to do so and trade a lot of high-paid players. There's a lot less big name FA's as well (the most I saw in one year was Pujols/Reyes/Fielder which is very, very possible in 7 months), and all the FA's get signed.

Re: Official MLB 11 The Show - Q&A Thread

Interested in how the CPU handles its playoff pitching rotations. In 10, it was common for the number 1 guy to pitch games 1 and 3 if there were enough off days in between games. Does this still happen? Is there a mix of 3 and 4 man rotations for playoff CPU teams?

Anyone have anything on this? Drove me crazy last year.

Re: Official MLB 11 The Show - Q&A Thread

Weather:

1) Do players slip and fall in the rain?
2) Do you actually see the rain fall or is the field just wet? If it does rain during the game is it variable such as heavy to light, stop, start?
3) Do you see more errors from the ball being wet?

Injuries:

1) Anyone have a player get hurt then continues only to get hurt again?
2) Any season ending injuries?
3) Do they have career ending injuries?

Presentation:

1) Do the scores from other teams during your franchise show progress and how often do they update?
2) Anyone check out the playoff atmosphere and if so, is there any difference from a regular game?
3) Any overlays for upcoming milestones, records?


Thanks,

Rules (Chuck)

Bump for anyone willing to answer a question or two..........thanks!

Re: Official MLB 11 The Show - Q&A Thread

The only ones I know there

Weather
1) Yes
2) Rain falls, not sure if its varied (only played one game in rain) - field also gets wet
3) At the very least it does affect gameplay (more bobbles etc)

Presentation
1) Yes, you have the option of an "ESPN" style ticker (2nd/5th/8th inning) or every half innig. You also have out of town scores. They update by the half inning I believe.
2) Overlays/field graphics are there, the crowd is a bit more energetic but its not 100% there yet.

Re: Official MLB 11 The Show - Q&A Thread

There are season ending injuries....
They also may turn into career ending injuries, you don't know until the retirement screen though. You don't get notification of it or anything like that.
