Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

Is there any way to change the camera for baserunning on RTTS?

I was trying to run, but camera kept changing views. So if I had the controller on up ,the camera would change so that down would be the direction to advance, so then when I moved the stick down, the camera changed and up was suddenly the advance direction again. So my guy kept going back and forth!

I would use the classic base running, as it's just buttons. Same thing happend to me when I used the sticks!

Hold down L2 the second the ball is hit.

It'll switch to the default Broadcast camera. Then just hit the button that corresponds to the base you want to run to.

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

Really wanna get traded! My team has ERA over 4.50 and is projected for 63 wins!

I can barely get RBIs cause my team barely has runners in scoring position when I'm up to bat(though when I do bat, my guy sucks with RISP, I'm hitting .360 yet almost .100 points lower with RISP. ESPECIALLY when there's someone on 1B cause it leads to double plays all the time(even with fastballs in the upper left part of the plate)).

Not gonna use swing influence cause it never seems to help me at all in the times I've used it

Looking for some advice considering sliders and skill level. So I made a new RTTS, a power hitter who I plan to try and break the home run record. I play for the Yankees and plan to stay for my whole career (short porch in left and right=more bombs!) So my plan is to hit a lot of homers BUT I'd like my batting average to be somewhat realistic (high .200's to low or mid .300's) I'm currently playing on rookie with every slider in the middle except power is up 2 clicks, I'm achieving my goal of a lot of homers but I'm hitting over .400. Any advice on a skill/slider set to fit my needs? Thanks

Are you in your first year? Because if so I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I can almost guarantee the Yankees will trade you long before you reach the majors.

You need to pump up to Veteran, It'll give ya a little more realistic. I remember reading from on of the developers that the real only difference between rookie and veteran is on vet it wont be fastball 98% of the time and will give a more realistic feel.

Just a thought, and also more than likly ur not goin be a Yankee past the trading deadline. They will end up trading u for a player who can help them now.

Good luck though

Okay, so I finally finished my first season. Made a 2B and was drafted by the Royals. Hit .300 on the year with 9 HR and 49 or 50 RBIs before fracturing my wrist near the end of July and missing the rest of the season and playoffs as the AA team went on to win the Texas league. KC gave me a 2 year deal though to start at second in Triple-A so hopefully the bounce back year goes well.

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

Swing influence doesn't do anything. I have half the amount of at bats as most guys, I'm hitting well over .300, yet I still keep on ground into double plays(I'm leading the MLB in GIDP despite having half the amount of at bats as most guys!)

If someones on 1st with 0-1 outs, it's 90% guaranteed I'm grounding into double play.

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

This game really is rigged. I play so many games, my team loses 70% of them, and my guy is hitting average(I average about 1 home run every other series,despite the fact that my guy has 99 contact and 99 power).

I simmed 2 weeks, and my guy is hitting like a 99 overall guy should be hitting. And my team won like 80% of their games. Don't get how a .300 team suddenly wins like 15/20 games, which just happened to be the games I simmed.

Here's my guys performance evaluator, what needs fixing?

What team are you on?

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

Cards.

Their overall rating in the game(based on the overall on the standings screen) has them as 2nd.

Well that's what they deserve! (I'm a rangers fan! )

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

Any help for the performance evaluator then? Cause don't know if over 25% of my swings should be early. Or if like 40% of hits are good contact is a good thing.

And if not...what I can do to fix it
