Re: Armor & Sword & Marino's MLB The Show 16 Timed/Classic Simulation Sliders

Hey guys, I think I may roll with 7/5/5/5/3 for human. I tried contact at 7 for the CPU and got demolished (12 runs on 14 hits). I think I may stick to 6. How is everyone else doing with a higher contact?

I use cpu contact at 7 as well . I am doing pretty well pitching wise except I am leading the majors in HR against.. by a lot . There are a lot of them are low and away stuff that has no business getting hit out. Guess it's time to lower cpu power..lol

I like CPU contact at 7. Let's them be dangerous without being godlike or facing a lineup of Barry Bondses or Joey Vottoes

It does go against you rough if your guys struggle that day and a crack in the door can become a flood if you're not careful. But that's when you have to try to survive with guile or just get a warm body out there that can restore order and give you a chance to get back in the game.

I agree with this, too.

Lowering power will still let them hit HR, it just will be less often on stuff like that.

As a side effect, they might get more jam shot bloop "E.K. 4-iron" hits because they won't travel as far.

What's a good fastball and offspeed pitch speed set up? I feel like 3 and 5 is a bit too slow for me, not really striking out much.

Try 7/8

What slider controls CPU hit and run calls? Lots of them being called, just had one against the BoSox with Pablo Sandoval running in the 1st inning.

I am really struggling deciding between veteran with it's totally and complete lack of walks.. and AS and the shear volume of infield pop ups/dribblers in front of home plate( which annoy me to no end) but you get walks..lol

Yea, I played on All Star. And I believe a few factors let to the uptick in K's.

1-An update came out that REALLY seemed to tighten up CPU hitting. But I had played about 35 games before that, and my totals were a bit abnormally high.
2-A lot of those innings went to Ervin Santana, who had a bizar K/9 (around 10.5).
3-Quick Counts certainly lent intself to a few more K's, as it did walks (both issued and drawn).
4- Over 300 combined innings by Severino and Berrios, in place of usual suspects of the Twins rotation( and tendency to draft one Brad Radke after another).....

I personally couldn't imagine pitching this whole season on HOF. I finished 24th in walks, 28th in ERA and 29th in HR allowed the way it is lol. How much of that is a testament to the fact that I throw the API pitch every single time I am not sure, because I've always done so.

But I feel like this slider set is a resounding success with QC on, for those of you that struggle to find the right settings for them.

I am starting over again, I just can't hit the ball at all. What roster set do you use? Also do you use directional or zone. I love this game but a also hate this game it's pure frustration with hitting, thanks.

Re: Armor & Sword & Marino's MLB The Show 16 Timed/Classic Simulation Sliders

So I've made it a couple months into the season and notice I'm not striking out too much, but I'm also near the bottom of the league in terms of offense (which I'm fine with playing as the Braves).

Is there any way to increase my strikeouts without making my offense even worse (outside of the strikeouts).

Increase pitch speed. I have fastball slider at 6 and off speed slider at 8 and strike out an average of 6-7 times per game with my Yankees and Mets franchises

Do you still have cpu hitting sliders at 7/5/5/3/5? If not, what are you using? Still trying to get realistic offense from the cpu.

I moved cpu contact back to 6, was just giving up too many hits. So I'm at 6,5,5,3,5. Seems to be working better.

These are great sliders!

Re: Armor & Sword & Marino's MLB The Show 16 Timed/Classic Simulation Sliders

Decided to get back into MLB The Show 16 and after running with default sliders previously, I've plugged this set into my new Franchise. No surprise, really, but Armor and Marino did a great job with this and the game plays amazingly well.
