    Re: TNK & PsychoBulk ***The Perfect Slider Set 2011 Edition***

    with the new camera angles this yr, catcher 9 seems to be the best for me to see balls and strikes....also with these sliders, anyone else raise pitch speed at all?..im thinking about doing it, a 95 4seam looks like 90 to me

      Our first release has pitch speed 4 but i play on 5, its very much personal preference is that slider.

        ive played 30 games with these sliders. 8-22. im still new to the show so i realize why its bad, but I notice on these sliders the computer doesnt chase much out of the zone. i pitch a lot out of the zone to make them chase and they simply don't

          try pitching high....i find that i have better luck getting them to chase up or when I set them up with high heat and then break a curveball or changeup or slider out of the zone low

            OK, so my pitching is decent with these. But my hitting is horrible.
            I've been shutout in 2 straight games getting only 9 hits total and striking out 28 times.
            Seems like any contact I make lately is a foul ball.
            I'm seriously considering moving down to veteran hitting with all other sliders the same. Or maybe I should change from analog hitting to timing only for a little while just to get my swing back?
            Very open to any tips/suggestions right now.
            These sliders are awesome with the exception of my hitting which is probably 99.9% my own fault.

              Give these settings a go w/ analog + veteran. That's what I've been using and it's been working out very well.

                Are you using Timing Only or Zone?

                I actually find that I hit better using Zone

                  Throw some balls.....don't be scared to walk a batter....stick with the corners even if it's a 3-0 or 2-1 count. Mix it up your pitches and location better, set guys up, etc.

                  Stick with it and get better - don't just tweak CPU Power down, pitch better....stick with it
                  Ha Ha, I wish that was the response the game gave you when you tried to adjust a slider and you got a popup box saying that you need to get better instead of changing the slider.

                  And the 2nd bolded part made me wonder if this was a slider thread.

                              Timing = you just tap the swing button

                              ZONE = you tap the swing button while aiming with the left analog stick......example: low pitch = down on the left analog along with hitting the swing button
