Pared's Gameplay Sliders!

Re: Pared's Gameplay Sliders!

Pared, your sliders are amazing. I'm 40 games with these into my franchise and I'm loving each game.

Thank you very much for sharing

Re: Pared's Gameplay Sliders!

OK, played a second game with these sliders. Hitting used timed hitting if fine. Rox vs. Mets at Shea. Rox lost 11-3. What is killing me is the my pitching, specifically, walks using Classic. My first game I walked 7 and this game I walked 13. That is just crazy. The ball goes nowhere to where I aim it. Does anyone else have this problem? I need to increase Pitch Command to at least +4. The game would have been a lot closer if not for all the freakin' walks. Here is the box score.

Rox 3 6 0
Mets 11 12 0

Rox 4 BB's, 7 K's, 1 2B, 1 HR (very satisfied with this)
Mets 13 BB's, 5 K's, 2 HRs

Has anyone else increased Pitch Command and if so, has it helped with your pitching and cutting down on walks?

hello there tfigs, i too have made the jump, but only to all star i was starting to crush the ball on veteren. all star is playing great so far with these sliders, except i am striking out A LOT again and by command is very bad just like you. i just walked the CPU 8 times last game and 6 the game before. the ball NEVER goes where i want it to. I like that the ball doesnt go right where you want it, but just sometimes, not every pitch. i am going to move my plate awareness to +3 to help with my K's and pitch command to +3 maybe +4 if i still struggle. ill let you know how it works out, but i am on all star not HOF, so i dont know if it will help.

I hear ya. For me, I found the biggest difference between levels is my pitching. That is why I keep going back to Veteran. On HOF, the ball just does not go where I want it to with Pitch Command at +2. I finally gave up in the 8th inning and just picked a pitch, left the ball curser in the middle of the plate and let it fly. The ball never went down the middle and was often out of the strikezone. I mean, it wasn't even close to where I wanted it to go. If I can get that under control, I think this would play a great game at this level. Unfortunately, I have to go out and won't be able to try again with Pitch Command raised until tomorrow. Let me know how it works for you. So, you are using these sliders or my sliders on All Star? Good luck.

atually a mix of your sliders and his. from pared's set I changed pitch movement back to default, CPU and HUM con to -10, HUM pow +2, plate awareness to +3, and CPU plate dis to +2 (like you said its nice to have them swing at some junk too). i also put pitch count at +8. And Im gonna try pitch command at +4

And this is on AllStar, correct? Some nice boxscores. Strikeouts are still a bit high. After getting 15 hits a game, I actually look forward to getting less than 10 a game. As I said before, hitting on HOF with Pared's sliders has not been a problem in 2 games, then again, I was facing #4 and 5 starters. I just need to get my pitch command down and stop all the walks. I will have to do some tweaking it looks like. Thanks for the info.

Re: Pared's Gameplay Sliders!

I play on HOF, pitch command at 0 ( default minus 10) CLassic pitching, and I avg issuing 3 walks a game. It will work once you understand how to use this pitching mode. Last game I had a CG issuing NO walks and King 10 with cole hamels. It can be done.

If you play with pitcher confidence on, when say your curveball has a high confidence for that moment, you can try to press the X button for longer since you're having better confidence. Say your curveball is off, if you press the x button too long, you will NOT hit your spot.

After a while you will get the feeling down. Don't press the X button too long for ALL your pitches. So when your Curve is "off " for the game, try to work it to the hitters by slowly tapping the button, once you raise the confidence of the particular pitch, now you can try to put more break on the pitch by holding X longer and still hit your spots.

IT WILL GET BETTER

You're averaging just over 4 hits a game... thats not very realistic. The league average is around 8 to 9 hits per game.

Re: Pared's Gameplay Sliders!

i just played 2 games with pitch command at +4 and plate awareness at +4. I see no difference i walked 9 guys in 2 games and struck out 24 times in both games. Hits are pretty good, i guess its either realistic hits or realistic strike outs. My real plate discipline could get better though. heres the box scores.

game 1
LAD 4 8 0
PIT 2 5 1

LAD 5bb, 1k, 1 double, and 2 HRs
PIT 0bb, 15k, 2HRs

game 2
LAD 2 5 0
PIT 3 8 0

LAD 4bb, 5k, 1 triple
PIT 1bb, 9k, 1 double, 1HR

Hey tree,

Maybe you and I should try playing at this level with API on. Since we are both having trouble with pitching on HOF, maybe that is a solution. To me, those boxscores both look realistic in scores and hits and extra basehits. I sympathize with the K's and BB's. You can also try Pitch Command at +6 and see what happens. And also, maybe Confidence Off. Also, don't forget to do mound visits if your pitcher starts to get rocked. His confidence will go up and he will gain a little more control. Still, I agree, I rather get 8 hits a game than continually getting 15 hits.

Re: Pared's Gameplay Sliders!

That's pretty much my only concern. It seems the only way to keep my hits down... but I know a lot of it is me swinging on pitches out of the zone.
