    Re: Manage Only Sub-Thread

    On the fence about buying this game or holding on to MLB 11. But, didn't they have team specific cams last year (MLB 11) that you could use in Manage Only Mode? And has anything really improved over last year's Manage Only Mode? Oh, and does the CPU STILL do it's own thing like steal, or intentional walk even though you are the manager?

      The smoothness of the game is big for me this year, meaning its much more fluid, the pitching, the batting, just makes it more enjoyable to watch this year, as well as being able to pick uniforms, and like you said being able to produce your own custom cams. Like Knight said, it would be great to be able to see your opponents bullpen, just so you can strategize. Oh well, I guess it makes you have to be quick on your feet.

            I am another manage only guy...waiting on rosters to start.

            But geez....they have to change the logic so that the game plays out UNTIL you want to interrupt for a managerial decision. I shouldn't have to press a button every pitch just to continue as normal.

            They make this one design change and it would improve the experience 100 fold...for me anyway.

              I agree...getting rid of the 6 second countdown would be phenomenal.

                Really not that big of a deal to me, lol. In fact I like it because it gives me time to decide what I want to do before each pitch.

                    Re: Manage Only Sub-Thread

                    i really like mom mode too and i dont have a choice this year because knight had stealing taken out of auto baserunning so cpu wouldnt steal on its own! LOL! just kiddin. i want to start my franchise but want to use knights rosters so ill have to freakin wait! nomo almost has the sliders knocked down and then theres that 3rd out popup error thing that will have to be patched.

                    i have this question about setting my defense if i have a pull power hitter up foreinstance i would like to set infield and out field to pull but you can only select 1 option? but during a regular hum vs cpu ican set my infield my outfield any way i want. anybody having issues with this? thanks

                      Do you mean it resets when you set your outfield?
                      Like....if you set the IF for DP depth, then want to move the OF(any way)...it sets the IF back to normal?
                      That was something that was a problem last year, so I'll ask Aaron if he could look into that.
                      It may just be that they only allow one manager input per play.

                        yea knight thats it i believe 1 input per at bat but if i was playing human vs cpu i can do two inputs per at bat maybee three shift infield out field and outfield depth but can only do one of those on mom which is a big part of our mode since we are not actually playing.

                            I found a good way to alleviate this was to bring down the drag bunt attribute way down for all the players on my team. It's more of a "how often" than "how good" attribute. Bump up the regular bunt attribute to compensate for you better bunters.
