Wow, that is really fast. Surprised you had enough time to test.

...but I'm excited

Easiest game in the history of sports games to develop sliders for. These guys are freaking good over at Sony SD. Major props to those gentlemen who work their *** off to give us this sick game.


Version 1.0 is up and is basically last years set with some minor tweaks to fielding errors.....Enjoy!

Yankees at Tigers

AS QC set in motion.

My first baseball title in awhile and I've been barely keeping my head above water at Rookie+ hitting so I can't make use of the full slider set yet - but I can say that switching to Catcher Zoom 3 had me score as many runs in my first game with it as I had in the previous 3. It's a huge help in picking up the speed & trajectory of the pitches. Thanks!

Armor - wondering what you saw in fielding that made you make fielding errors = 3?
I am not seeing that many errors to warrant it being dropped down from default...are you experiencing something else?

To me hybrid is two things in one. What is hybrid Quick count? Are you batting with QC and pitching with normal. What the term hybrid stands for ?

I'm pretty sure hybrid just stands for the change in difficulty. Regular you're on All stat/All star. While hybrid you're on veteran for hitting and still all star for pitching.

Hi Armor ,
Glad to see you back and the game plays even better out of the box this year ! and heres some quick feedback on Allstar QC after 4 games I think with foul frequency at 3 Im just seeing way to many Ks for me and the cpu but its only 4 games .

Re: Armor & Sword's MLB The Show 15 Timed (Directional)/Classic Simulation Sliders

Really liking these sliders. I can finally hit at a decent clip. I've only played a couple of games so obviously no conclusions can be drawn yet but the CPU seems to be hitting too many HR. Now, the games I've played have been Yanks vs. Sox so it could just be the Sox god awful staff and that launching pad the Yanks call a stadium. Will test more.

I am playing with various teams, various rosters (87,91,14 OFSM, and out of the box MLB 15 rosters to be exact), and I noticed higher than what I consider normal errors (with several different roster sets). And more specifically some real silliness with highly rated guys. My goal is to make sure lower rated guys perform as such but high world class defensive players only on a rare occasion make some errors. I felt right off the bat I saw too much "no way he makes that many errors already" moments with certain guys who are brilliant players with the glove. Again it was a two click adjustment from default to balance the game for my taste. I will see though if I over did it in the next 10-15 games I play. I based this very first set on 18 franchise games played with various teams, years etc.

I do everything I can to create a slider set that can be used universally with OSFM, Stock SCEA, and classic custom made rosters.

Keep in mind this is version 1.0 and as I keep playing games things may change. Also There will be no doubt another patch forthcoming that may further tune overall game play etc.

Most importantly. Plug them in and start playing as the game is amazing.

Would the type of hitting have any affect on how these sliders work. I prefer the zone hitting as to the directional myself.

Appreciate all the work A&S.

In a nutshell no. Any hitting interface would be fine. But the pitching interface these are tuned for is Classic

Re: Armor & Sword's MLB The Show 15 Timed (Directional)/Classic Simulation Sliders

I'm back again for your sliders, A&S. But I'm also back for more Classic Pitching discussion.

Is that thread still somewhere, and open? I'd like to talk about how I'm having a bit harder of a time striking opposing batters out (after leading the league in both walks and strikeouts last year).

Re: Armor & Sword's MLB The Show 15 Timed (Directional)/Classic Simulation Sliders

Im trying them out with Hall of Fame pitching and liked what i saw my first game. Sam Fuld got to me with 2 HR and a double. Meanwhile Miguel Cabrera went 0-3 with a walk. Lost 7-5.

Quick Counts, standard All Star/All Star using Current Sony rosters
First off let me preface this by saying the obvious, it's early. Too early to say anything definitive, but that said, the trend thus far has shown strike percentages(Human and CPU) to be too high, usually over 70%, sometimes as high as 80% when it should be closer to 60%, or 62% to be exact. The second thing is stamina, may also be too high. Going forward I'm going to start tracking three things in particular, ball/strike ratio(with and without QC added in), stamina in relation to pitch count, and foul balls(should be about 30 per game).
