Re: HOF Sliders (Project Nemesis MLB 08)

Am I right in assuming that IF, OF Throw speed and IF/OF Run speed stay at 0.

If I'm wrong, could someone post what they have for these sliders.

I don't see them in the sliders on post 562.

Correct, leave them at default.

Re: HOF Sliders (Project Nemesis MLB 08)

is there any way to fix these glitches im noticing ? i have latest patch

**********SEASON MODE***********

1. cpu ai fielding glitch where first baseman fields a ground ball and just stands there and waits for the pitcher to cover, first baseman is close enough to tag bag but always waits for pitcher resulting in a single every time. happens a lot. Playing in season mode. (frequently happens)

No fix for it.

2. user fielding glitch where if you dive for a ball but you miss it and it deflects off your glove your fielder wont pick it up but just stand on the ball and you have to wait for another fielder to come pick it up. Season mode (always happens if you miss)

I have played a lot of games and have never seen this happen, sorry.

3. user fielding glitch where you run right past a ball hit to you. season mode ( occasionaly happens

This is not a glitch, if you approach the ball in a perpendicular fashion you will miss it. You have to approach grounders with a slight angle towards the outfield.

Also one last request, no fighting in my thread please. Thanks!

I have also never seen this in 100 + games. I have seen the first one that you mentioned though but not very often. Like nemesis said on the 3rd thing you listed you have to approach the ball at the correct angle so not a glitch.

I've seen this a million times, and it makes me LIVID. Usually it'll be with a runner a second and 2 outs, well the guy on second scores because my someone has to come pick it up. Extremely annoying.

Re: HOF Sliders (Project Nemesis MLB 08)

I like these sliders NEM...Quick question..Striking out the CPU...I get them to 0-2 and all they keep doing is either foul off my pitches or take the pitch and ends up going 3-2 and I either walk em or they get a pop out...What would you say would effect them, actually swinging for a pitch out of the zone, if im up say 0-2 or 1-2..plate discipline? turn down the pitch count slider(less foul balls), combination of both? Man...this is why I hate sliders...but I love that you spend all the time doing them..lol

Bring the plate discipline slider to -6. That should loosen things up a little. Make sure you mix your pitches well and keep the cpu batters guessing. At the current settings you should be K'ing the cpu.

some of us are seeing it, for those that arent, are you pressing L2 to select a different guy to pick it up or are you just waiting for your man that missed it to get off the grass and pick it ?

I press the shoulder button to make sure the proper fielder is highlighted. That could be a reason why I do not see it.

Re: HOF Sliders (Project Nemesis MLB 08)

quick question Nem

You are still using classic pitching?

How long do you typically hold the button down before releasing for the pitch?

I just have never seen it, I dont think I am doing anything special I dont push L2 or anything. I just field the ball if I can get to it and if it deflects off the glove my fielder has always just picked the ball up. I dont know why it hasnt happened to me maybe I am just extremely lucky. There are several glitches that I have never seen. Like the HR glitch that people talked about where a homerun would be hit but then the guy would still be on first. Now I have a few glitches here in there. I think the worst one that I saw was the CPU had the same guy pinch running on first and second. But again like I said I have been very lucky and havent seen many of the glitches that people talk about.......knock on wood.

Re: HOF Sliders (Project Nemesis MLB 08)

quick question Nem

How long do you typically hold the button down before releasing for the pitch?

Here is what I do for classic that works well:

Full motion

Keeping the X button pressed down, I let up at three different points of the pitcher's windup to determine velocity.

Slow velocity: Hold X and release when the pitcher just starts his leg lift.

Medium velocity: Hold X and release when the pitcher is at his max leg lift.

Maximum velocity: Hold X and release when the pitcher finishes his leg lift and brings his leg towards the plate.

From the stretch

Slow velocity: Hold X and release when the pitcher is in mid lift of his motion.

Medium velocity: Hold X and release when the pitcher is in mid stride towards home.

Maxium velocity: Hold X and release when the pitcher has planted his foot towards home and is just starting to bring his arm forward to release the pitch.

Note: If you hold the X button through the entire pitcher's motion you will have max velocity and break but you will lose control and the ball will track away from your desired location.

Hey Nem,

Your sliders are the best. Thanks again for saving this game. I am in the ALCS playing the Rays tied 2-2. I could only imagine what I would think if it was played on default.
