No problem...wind comes in to play way too much at default. I tinkered with it at -2 for a bit but IMO it still had too much effect for my taste

Re: Manager Mode 2011
I love Manage Only Mode..... until it freezes and then I don't touch it again!!!! I just had it freeze on me in the 8th inning during a mound visit. Every year I go through this. I wait for the OS/****** ******s, start a Manage Only Mode Franchise and at some point during the early part of the season, I get a freeze. I never go back to MoM again after that! I love this game, but this mode never working out for me is very upsetting!!!!
I know that there are bugs in the MoM and that we can just skip mound visits to avoid the problem but if the feature is in the game, IT SHOULD WORK!!!!Comment

Re: Manager Mode 2011
I mainly play RTTS mode but am also a huge Manage Only fan overall. Just tried this mode out last night for the first time and really enjoyed it though I wish you had an option for a 1 pitch type of at bat.
I understand having it pitch by pitch for overall strategy but it would be nice to just get to the resulting play here and there if you choose. Love the mode but would love it even more if games could move a little quicker.Comment

Re: Manager Mode 2011
Yeah this is the only thing that really bothers me about MOM this year. I love it too much to just give it up though, I'm a MOM addict. Thing is Mound Visits are critical to the success of this mode. When your pitcher is low on confidence you need to go out there and calm him down. If you time your mound visits correctly he'll gain confidence. I'm just afraid to use it though until it's ***ed because the worst thing is to use a mound visit in the 8th inning and have it freeze on you. So I try to avoid them if I can and if my pitcher absolutely has to get a confidence meter boost I just do and in game save. It's not perfect but it's better than just giving up on the mode completely imo.I love Manage Only Mode..... until it freezes and then I don't touch it again!!!!

I'm looking forward to next year's game when hopefully the development team gives this mode some love. It's obvious there are a lot of people that love this mode.Comment

Re: Manager Mode 2011
It's happened to me twice since the patch, sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. Usually it's late in games, both times it occurred in the 8th inning. I just try to avoid it now, sometimes I'll try it anyway and hold my breath. Nothing is more frustrating to visit the mound and not be able to leave that screen. All your work goes down the drain and you have to start over.Comment

Re: Manager Mode 2011
Could this be a possible fix for the 2nd Patch? Anyone notified Russell? I hear you BravesFan, I "play" my games watching EVERYTHING and pen and pad my stats so it takes me 2:15 to 3:00 to play a game. Man that would stink to be over 2 hours in a game and have that happen. Really hope this can be addressed even though I have yet to have it happen to meComment

Re: Manager Mode 2011
I haven't had any freezes yet-but my biggest complaint is-I was playing a AL championship series against the alltime Yankees and alltime RedSox- I was managing the Sox-it was tied 2-2 in the Ninth-I had Yaz on 2nd with 2 outs and Ted Williams at bat-and Yaz (on his own) is thrown out trying to steal 3rd!
THAT is what I hate about the mode-they need to fix it so the cpu doesn't call plays for the team you're attempting to manage.
Oh and also-I actually picked a runner off at 1st base! First time it's ever worked for me in 3 seasons-I had thought it was impossible but I guess not. Overall I still LOVE the game-just wish they would pay more attention to MOM-it could be a lot better.Comment
