Question for Classic Pitching and Feedback off throwing.

Do I let go when the controller starts to vibrate? Before it vibrates? In the middle of vibrating? or after vibrating?

The vibration indicates max effort behind the pitch. From there you can let up sooner to play around with varying degrees of break on pitches.

I love me classic pitching and wish I could use vibration on to get that effect of the effort buzzing, but I also enjoying playing with the ball marker off and dislike when it vibrates the controller as im outside the strike zone so I have vibrations disabled.

I wish I could enable it for classic pitching effort but disable it for strike zone awareness you cant do this can you?

Any word when patch will be out?? Game is great but excited for patch and OSFM rosters to be out soon

Nobody knows for sure, but patches usually come out on Tuesday and stuff for other games, so I wouldn't be surprised if April 2nd(the first Tuesday of the regular season) is the day when it's released.

Though maybe it might get held off till later just incase that there are errors in The Show Live once they actually start updating it

Unfortunately it is all or nothing. I made a suggestion in the past to have a list of the different vibration feedback situations in the game, which would be located in your settings where you could toggle them "on" or "off" so you could customize it to your liking.

Apologize if this was already brought up. In RTTS can you turn off the sweeping camera that zooms into your player?

I have a question... From 09 the show Chase Utleys stance has been dead on, in 12 the show Ryan Howards stance was spot on.In 13 the show I am wondering why both are wrong.

Ok great! Does the vibration also go for max effort on the throw of a fielder? The description of "throwing meter off" says that it is completely predicated on the fielders ability, so would tapping the button or holding the button have ANY influence on the throw type?

I decided playing with Vibration on is much more fun than off, I am giving up the guessing of where the strike zone is exactly since it buzzes but I actually enjoy the feedback of knowing I am throwing a pitch full effort or partial. It changed how I play too now when I aim for a pitch outside the zone intentionally (controller vibration) I usually do a tap for a lower effort pitch. I assume this saves a tiny bit of stamina on my pitcher as well as being more accurate?

I can see a difference between max effort and lower effort on breaking pitches, but is there really a difference in various degrees in between the two? or is it just Low effort tap, more effort hold and thats the only options?

This isnt really fair to ask and it is probably impossible to measure but is that a fact that holding the button an extra second but not so much that it vibrates will throw harder than just a tap? Is that placebo or have the devs said something about it? I know its not a fair question just curious I love classic pitching so much.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

I've always believed that there are varying efforts in-between, similar to the other pitching interfaces. Specifically like how Meter functions as an example. This is how I've always viewed the Classic interface, but obviously I could be wrong since it hasn't been explicitly stated to us by the Developers.

Is Catcher 2 the default hitting camera from MLB 12?

I thought catcher was but I am not sure.

PS Vita version:

In RTTS, I have my 2nd Baseman who has 60+ ratings in fielding and throwing accuracy. However 19 out of 20 throws are overthrown. I get 5-6 errors a game. I've done everything from barely tapping the right analog stick, to stopping it in the middle, and even full power throws. Yet I am constantly committing errors 30 ft away from first. Is there anyone else experiencing this or is it just me?

I joined my first ever online league earlier. It said the draft was on Thursday at 8:30. Does this mean the Thursday this week?

Is it possible to trigger that Mariano Rivera entrance from the 'Pen cutscene as a user player? Or no?
