MLB 12 CPU VS CPU Sliders

Re: MLB 12 CPU VS CPU Sliders

Darksith777, I think you got on the wrong foot with Nomo by discrediting his work and pumping up your sliders. I'd suggest you let your sliders do the talking for you. You have a great set here whether other people want to acknowledge it or not. I agree with you that looking for a good slider set is one of the most annoying things about buying a new game. I want to get started on my season so I can play multiple seasons, I don't want to wait until May or June to start my 2012 season. That's frustrating. It's a reason I"m not waiting on Knight's roster set this year. I'm diving in and getting started. I'm gonna enjoy the game right now and your slider set has given me a lot of enjoyment already.

Nomo, I don't think it's fair to criticize his slider set without trying them. That just doesn't make any sense at all. I'm seeing a lot of variety and getting exactly what I want out of my MOM games.

I guess I just don't understand the need to put others and their work down. Let's keep it on a mature level and make this thread fun to come to and read.

Hi BravesFan.....I agree I only posted that in my thread not to offend anyone but to help people enjoy the game now right now. I guess some people like all the meticulous testing and time consuming work and that is cool. But I just was trying to help people see that all of that is not necessary this year. But abolutely to each their own. Personally I just go by feel of the game first when it comes to sliders. It of course does take multiple games to establish the right feel but I dont think it needs to take 50-100. The stats will come once the feel is right.....Anyhow I am happy you are enjoying the sliders and thank you for being the voice of reason!

Hey BravesFan. I dropped the CPU fielder reaction from 5 to 4. This was to see a little more diving for balls and hits off the wall.

Re: MLB 12 CPU VS CPU Sliders

Thanks for the update.

As soon as I finish the month of April I'll post the stats I accumulated. Might take another week or so but it appears we are the only one's using this set.

Post your box scores if you want, I'd enjoy seeing how your games are turning out as well.

Re: MLB 12 CPU VS CPU Sliders

Ok I will.....I am playing out a season with the pirates right now. Will post some stats this weekend.

Re: MLB 12 CPU VS CPU Sliders

If anyone else out there has some comments or stats on this slider set would be appreciated. Noticed we have over 1,000 views but not many comments.

Just as an FYI, one of the devs told me personally skill level doesn't matter for CPU vs. CPU/MOM games.

Re: MLB 12 CPU VS CPU Sliders

As a life long CPU vs CPU fan, I have to say I disagree with Nomo regarding skill levels. I've only played a few games on default this year so far, but it's clearly obvious that there is a difference between All-Star and HOF on CPU only.
Having said that, IMO, the game SHOULD be played on HOF if for no other reason than trade logic and financial considerations. I still believe that is as much a part of the game as hitting and pitching. And I feel that HOF utilizes those aspects better than All-Star.
All-Star does give a more balanced game than HOF. In the games I played on HOF, it looked like pitching dominated. Only two games, so I switched to All Star and was seeing more hits.
So I'll be following this thread closely.
BTW, Darksith's set looks a lot like my 2009 settings. Maybe he's on to something.

Re: MLB 12 CPU VS CPU Sliders

Having a game set on HOF difficulty I don't think impacts trade logic or financial restrictions. I didn't think there was a difference with regards to any of that.

I'm not going to hijack the thread since this one is for DarkSith's slider set but... it's not really a question of disagreeing with me, as I'm simply repeating what the devs (or people in the know) have written somewhere in the past:

On the difficulty level thing, I still have the original post where that question was answered (because I'm the one who asked the question! )

Q: Would it follow then that HOF would be the best for Manager Mode...?
A: In AI vs. AI games the difficulty setting has no effect. This includes Manager Mode. For the purpose of what I handle, AI doesn't know its playing against an AI opponent.

It's from 2008, but it's still the same AI programmer Brian Ma answering (through Chris_SCEA's account because he didn't have one of his own at the time)

what HE said!!


I have used the sliders for about 5 games, and they are very competitived and realistic. working two jobs minimizes my time for posting stats, but i will make a point to show at least partial box scores from my last 3-4 games.

I've always wondered about levels making a difference, but it doesn't really matter to me, as long as the game plays realistically.
