    Re: Manage Only Sub-Thread

    Another MOM player here.

    Love the quicker pace this year, the added presentation, and the ability to transfer my save to my Vita and continue my MOM franchise on the road.

    Playing mostly default sliders. I upped starting pitcher stamina to 6. Lowered Fielder Run speed to 4.

      Look, I really am saying there just isn't enough traffic to justify to a subforum. And I play mOm, too. Ask BK, lol. I just get pissed when the CPU does stuff on its own

A lot of it depends on who the player is too. I know I was playing the Angels, and had Albert to bat with nobody on, and i just chose to pitch around him to see if he would get himself out, but he drew the walk though.
        Thanks for the thoughts on the pitching strategy Any other Mom players our there feel free to share there strategies as well.Also interested on if you tell guys to take pitches or how often you like to hit and run or steal.I myself like to sacrifice bunt more than most,especially with my Giants not being the greatest hitting team lol to say the least

          I don't like how they force us to use the Broadcast cam. They should allow us to edit the camera to our liking just like everyone else. I guess it's hard to complain too much since they did throw us a bone and allow us to use different uniform combinations but you are pretty much forced to use Broadcast or Outfield view, unless you don't want to see the pitch completed from start to finish. I can't stand the other options they give you and the custom cams are even worse.

          People that have read my posts know I'm a HUGE MOM player. I love it, it's just an unbelievably great mode. I would like to be given full control though and have the same options available as HUM vs CPU gives you.

          Can't really complain about much else. I'm almost into May in my franchise already. Really enjoying it.

            I'm still on MLB 10 the show, hard to get the games in england, went for manager mode on there but it just came up with an exhibition style menu. Is it possible to do it in Franchise mode on older games?

            Sorry if this sounds stupid, fairly new to baseball gaming

              Not stupid.Yes you can do it in franchise,it'll give you the option before you start the game.Itll say play game,manage game,or simulcast game.Hope that helps

                Another MOM player here, but I haven't tried it yet as I didn't feel like starting up a franchise to try it out. I've really been trying to figure out how to hit and improve my plate discipline. I might fire one up tonight just to see how it's playing this year.

                  It's pretty nice because you can enjoy the beautiful graphics and the espn style ticker and still influence the game...

                    I posted some stats in the slider forum. I just finished my first month. Check them out if you'd like. I'm getting good results and loving every minute of it.

                    Now I have to figure out how to improve this sorry Braves team!!! Might have to trade for a bat at some point!

                          Probably will start a Franchise tonight and get going. What rosters are everyone using? Just the default, or did anybody download any that are good right now?

                              I am into the managing this year. This will be my first year going to this style with the Show. I started getting into this with Madden and now I think this is how I prefer to play sports games, but then again I am 34 so....lol. I like the idea of letting the players play to there attributes instead of me being the reason for everyones batting average dropping on my team.

                                Exactly why enjoy it so much.
                                I like playing the odd game once in a while, because it's fun...but I usually have a separate franchise going to do that....as I hate my input "spoiling" my regular franchise.

                                One thing I hope they put in next year is the ability to see the opponent bullpen at any time like when you are actually playing the game.
