TNK - 2013 REALISM SLIDERS

Re: TNK - 2013 REALISM SLIDERS

Hell of a game here. 3-0 doesn't look good but it was a game until the end. Rodriguez had a no hitter going through 6, I had plenty of runners on but couldn't convert when it mattered. It went to the top of the 10th, should've put in grilli to shut them down but went with watson. gave up a couple of hits and before you know it, it was 3-0. couldn't get anything going. well played on both sides though. variety of hits, pitching was very realistic, well done TNK.

I think I'm going to have to drop pulse pitching this yr. pitching accuracy is good for the fastballs and changeups, but sliders and curves go absolutely EVERYWHERE. Increasing the accuracy slider would only cause issues as well.

Oh well time to try out analog lol.

Go with meter and drop HUM Control to 3

Re: TNK - 2013 REALISM SLIDERS

The Royals just completed a triple play on me......I saved the replay and will upload the video tomorrow or over the weekend.

Bases loaded - Pedroia hit into a 6-4-3 double play as Escobar made a beautiful diving stop up the middle and Getz turned & fired to 1st base.....Ellsbury tried to score from 2nd on the play and Hosmer made a perfect throw home to nail Ellsbury at the plate to complete the triple play.

Don't think I've ever seen a triple play before in The Show

Re: TNK - 2013 REALISM SLIDERS

TNK - EXHIBITION GAME
BOSTON RED SOX @ KANSAS CITY ROYALS
Pitching Matchup - Clay Buchholz vs. Wade Davis

* Both teams stranded runners at 2nd & 3rd in the 2nd inning as Davis and Buchholz pitched out of danger.

* The Red Sox loaded the bases with nobody out in the top of the 3rd for Pedroia. Pedroia bounced a ball up the middle and Alcides Escobar made a diving stop, flipped to Getz at 2nd who fired to 1st base to complete the double play as Jacoby Ellsbury got ballsy and tried to score from 2nd base and the throw home from Hosmer just nailed him at the plate as the Royals TURN A TRIPLE PLAY!!!!!.

* David Ortiz doubled to leadoff the top of the 4th and came in to score on a sac fly by Middlebrooks to make it 2-0.

* Eric Hosmer made it 2-1 in the bottom of the 4th when he crushed a HR down the RF line. The score remained 2-1 until the bottom of the 6th when David Ortiz absolutely unloaded on a Davis fastball and launched a 439 foot solo HR that cleared the RF stands and bounced off the fountain wall to make it a 3-1 game.

* Junichi Tazawa and Joel Hanrahan slammed the door closed out of the pen in the late innings as the Sox win 3-1.

Re: TNK - 2013 REALISM SLIDERS

Probably been asked TNK but these are NOT for the vita right? I did notice you have some in their vault though. Are they finalized?

Re: TNK - 2013 REALISM SLIDERS

Has anyone noticed issues with the AI pulling pitchers too late?

EXAMPLE: A.J. Griffin (A's) just threw close to 130 pitches against me in a 9-2 A's win, complete game, but he was struggling towards the end with nearly a complete lack of control. Then the next game, they left Tom Milone in to try for the complete game. He was over 100 pitches and struggling. He didn't end up getting it, but that MAY have been a result of moving the "manager hook" slider to 6 when I realized that was what was happening.

Anybody have any insight to this? It used to be the AI would pull pitchers too soon. Now, they pull them too late.

EDIT: I may be overreacting, but the "manager hook" slider might effectively be broken this year. Moved it to 6 and...Gavin Floyd was no-hitting me through 6.1 innings in a 1-0 game. I break it up with a single and he is immediately pulled. His pitch count (don't remember EXACTLY) was around 70. What gives?

EDIT: I may be overreacting, but the "manager hook" slider might effectively be broken this year. Moved it to 6 and...Gavin Floyd was no-hitting me through 6.1 innings in a 1-0 game. I break it up with a single and he is immediately pulled. His pitch count (don't remember EXACTLY) was around 70. What gives?

From what I understand it seems that the AI will pull the pitcher based on score more than pitch count.

Re: TNK - 2013 REALISM SLIDERS

My last 4 games have been intense.

10 inning walk off single by Josh Hamilton

14 Inning walkoff double by Aybar

9 Inning complete game shutout by Vargas (3-0) final score (117 total pitches)

And current in-game save (9-7) where the Athletics jumped out to score 5 runs in one inning, I got 2 back in the bottom half, then scored 5 more in one inning with one out as thats where I currently have it saved.

I'm hitting too many home runs with these sliders. Every game I hit at least 3, and my last game (A's - Orioles) I hit 9 home runs in a 15-0 win. What should I do?

Something was definitely tweaked because it wasn't like that in the past. To be honest, I didn't like the way it was set up then. However, that way was better and more realistic, even though there was a little to be desired. Now it's like the slider has to be at 5.5 to get it to work properly...problem is, there is no 5.5...5 is too low and 6 is too high.

I'm having a horrible time base running. I can't get guys to round bases smoothly, there's always a hesitation, I feel like I have to button mash. My runner will round first, stand there, then take off for second. Obviously getting thrown out every time.

Another thing irritating me is fielders holding the ball. I've noticed for example a ground ball where the fielder is running away from the base he is throwing to, I'll have the meter green, but he'll stand there for a second and then decide to double clutch or crow hop or whatever and then throw. Costing me so much time and costing me outs.

Are there different buttons I'm not aware of this year for this stuff

Having the same issues you are. I've been playing the show for years and never experienced either before me. I figure the fielding issues are us not being used to meter throwing. I may have the meter displayed to get used to it.

The base running is more troubling. I think it may just need a different "touch" and timing this year.

Great sliders, TNK. Much appreciated! You make this game so much more enjoyable.

That's a lot of dingers! What gameplay settings are you using? Maybe dialing down solid contact would help.

Re: TNK - 2013 REALISM SLIDERS

Having a great time with these sliders. Already 12 games in and I might actually finish this season regardless of roster updates and patches. 13 equals fun versus all the frustration of previous years.

My hitting stats with the Giants are so close to perfect I could cry

. Pitching, however, has been very easy. I am 9-3 with a 1.93 ERA. Play a bit more or make a slider adjustment?

P.S. I kept pitch speed @ 5. Again, my hitting stats are right on and I am a few months away from the big 50. Will up if necessary.
