Finally won a game! Braves(me) beat the Pirates 3-1. Both teams had 6 hits but I also worked 4 BB. I've only hit 1 HR in 4 games so far on these sliders, but I like how they feel. Pitching wise i've been doing very well. I want to start spring training soon...thinking I may go with the Braves.

Is OSFM work with adjusting veteran players as well, or does it specifically tailor to prospects and minor leaguers?

I'm using Pulse Pitching and Zone Hitting with these sliders, All-Star pitching/Veteran hitting. Finally had a memorable game last night. Lost 3-2 to the Dodgers (playing with A's) but bumping down to Veteran I was finally able to put together hits. I had 8 hits, CPU had 7. Mark Ellis it HR in the top of the 8th to break a 2-2 tie.

Wish I saved the box score, it was late and I was tired

These are the sliders I'm going with for OSFM A's franchise.

I too am running with these sliders but went down to veteran hitting and man did I have a much more enjoyable experience. Timing hitting with veteran difficulty is extremely enjoyable, if I had one area of concern its the sheer amount of extra base hits as I had 9 hits and 5 were of the extra bases variety but other then that no complaints.

EDIT- When people steal do they go early or just simply press L2 to steal? I ask because Im getting thrown out on slow changeups with fast runners and am clueless as to what I might be doing incorrectly. Ive even raised steal ability to default and all thats done is turned the CPU into a base stealing machine so thats not helping me at all. The thing I noticed is John Baker was throwing nothing but lasers that were perfectly on the money every single time I attempted to steal which seems incredibly unrealistic as well. Am I doing something wrong or is this just a problem with the game and its next to impossible to steal for others as well?

Re: TNK - 2012 Realism Sliders Thread

I think I've found it. These sliders but bumped the solid hits to 5...and BAM. Finally getting 8-10 hits per game and having fun! I think this will work for me. I also am seeing some HRs now. BTW...anyone who has downloaded some rosters..Cespedes is unreal in the one I use. Manny hitting 3 and Cespedes 4 or vice-versa may be where I actually start my season. Real tough to make the playoffs though especially with Texas & Anaheim around.

Re: TNK - 2012 Realism Sliders Thread

Re: TNK - 2012 Realism Sliders Thread

Just want to say these are great slider set.
I'm using Pulse pitching/Veteran, and Zone/pure analog Veteran.
at first I was about to give up on using Zone/analog hitting, but then I read one of TNK's post about lowering the camera view, so I did that and I also dropped the pitch speed down from 4 to 3 and now I can actually hit the ball. One thing that I did notice though is my pitchers were to accurate. I was not walking batters and was not getting into pitch count trouble like 3-1 counts and stuff. So I went back to the original pitching set I was using for the human pitching, which actually was opposite of this and found it to my liking.
I changed Human Pitch Control - from 5 to 4
Human Pitcher Consistency - from 4 to 5
and found that pitching is more challenging for me. My pitcher is not always spot on and I get into some pitch count trouble and create more walks.
my last game I walked 4 and had 6 K's with Carlos Zambrano who went 6 innings.

Again to TNK, Royale and everyone involved in making this slider set a great one. Thank you for your hard work and dedication.

You need to throw some balls off the plate on purpose......pitch the corners and don't be afraid to miss.

Has anyone used classic pitching with these sliders?

Which Cespedes roster did you DL? I'm waiting for OSFM to really grind my A's franchise but wouldn't mind messing around with him in the game before then. There's a ton of Cespedes players in the vault.
