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

    How much of a difference would it make playing offense on Dynamic difficulty using these sliders? Because I know I'm not at All-Star capability yet and still need to find my sweet spot on offense. Also, going to try your camera suggestion I feel I have a really hard time picking up balls and strikes, so a change sounds good.

      I like the sliders but I do have a question.

      To me, classic pitching seems there is little to no skill involved. Is this the intention? To focus on pitcher stats? What would the implications be of doing meter pitching?

      Thanks for all your work!

        With the directional hitting, do you guys aim the left stick in the direction of the pitch on every swing? Or do you just use it situationally? Great sliders btw.

          Situational mate. Have a read of this thread it cleared up any directional hitting questions I had.

          I'm having some cracking games with the latest tweaks! I cannot stop playing this game, it's awesome!

            In my opinion the purpose of us using classic pitching is to take as much human error out of it/let the player ratings do the work.

              Loving the new tweaks as well.

              I updated some screen settings.

              Pitch selection is now off to get rid of the R2. Just know yours and your opponents pitches by paying the game. Once you see them you will remember them.

              I also pitch with no ball marker. Far more challenging and real.

              I am still testing with the latest tweaks....and will make them permanent once I get in my sample size.

              AMAZING GAME.

              And Diamond Dynasty is amazing....I highly recommend it. Online works great this year!

                Armor do you also have problems with games going into the queue?

                  Any way to get the outfielders throws to be more on accurate? Throws made to specific bases seem to be off too much this year. By the way, love how the game plays with the tweaks you made.

                    I agree. Very frustrating. And the cutoff doesn't seem to work very well but I think it may be because outfielder throws are so bad?

                      I zeroed out throwing errors thinking that would help but to no avail.

                        Glad someone else agrees. If you guys see this issue please reply to my post so we can give it more attention. It is really apparent if you run CPU vs CPU games and just watch. The Show is the greatest sports sim of all time but it is not perfect and people will deny gameplay issues because they don't want their fantasy ruined.

                          I have been noticing it here and there if you try to make long throws. You really should be cutting off throws from deep in the OF.

                          I have some bad throws but nothing crazy. Also ratings to play a major factor.

                          Now I use button unmetered throwing so no user factor. Pure ratings dice role.

                          Errors are something I think I have nicked with the settings on page one and now they play far more to ratings and realism. I saw too many great fielders making silly errors out of the box.

                          I am very close to making those tweaks permanent. Still playing though. Probably by mid next week those will be official if I keep seeing what I am seeing. Which is some very tight simulation baseball.

                          I am glad everyone is enjoying the game. IMO it is legendary. Best baseball game ever made bar none.

                              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).
                              I agree 100 percent
