I understand how the throwing works I'm 110 games in and since the change my guys can't throw. Lol

Mmmmmm not having those issues. Keep playing. Your team is in a rut throwing the ball it seems.

the latest set is freaking spot on! I played about 10 QM games(I only jump in if I get runners in scoring position....no QC, and the only time I pitch is if it's a save opportunity so I cant comment too much on pitching) and I didnt wanna put the game down to go to bed. I was seeing booted balls, players getting pulled off the bag, etc, but not at too high a rate...felt just right. Also, hit variety seems to be spot on as well(something I didnt have a great experience with on the older sets without me tinkering). Things may change over the next 15 or 20 games(though i doubt it), but this latest set has the game playing the best Ive seen in my personal experience.

Chef, I don't have issues with batting averages on HOF pitching (similar sliders to Armor but default consistency and control.

Kinda funny how your franchise is mirroring the real life Mariners: http://www.thenewstribune.com/sports...153932514.html

Let me clarify, my question to Armor about CPU batting averages wasn't a complaint and I have no issues as the end result is realistic I was more curious what they were looking like on his end since he has played far more games then I have. I also have default consistency and control like you and now there is more of a difference between good, average and bad pitchers which I like.

Again, my prior post wasn't a complaint in the least, just curious for comparison purposes is all.

Averages are certainly up....and in a good way. You can't pound the strike zone vs the CPU on HOF pitching. Even some great pitchers pitches get hit sometimes (which is nice to see from really good hitters). When I strike out the CPU if feels totally earned now. So yes....no question averages are up since my move to HOF.

Mission accomplished. I was shutting them down at will on All-Star pitching this year.

Utopia for me classic pitching on HOF this season. All-Star Hitting is spot on for me and I would not change a thing.

I very well may go default 5/5 for human consistency and control (currently 4/4) as well.

I think the game is tuned so well at default this year. I also want to see the differentiation for the human side pitchers and reel in some excessive wild pitches from highly rated pitchers (Tanaka and Bentances in my case who have filthy breaking stuff).

The CPU are too perfect at default. 4/5/4 is working out fantastic for CPU pitchers. Not touching that.

So if I make one more change it very well may be default 5/5 for human pitchers and that is only due to wild pitches being a little excessive this year. I am glad we have them...as they are part of baseball, and the catchers reflexes are far more realistic this year. Unfortunately though the throwing animation to gun down runners taking off on wild pitches is off and I am sure will be addressed on 18. I can live with that on 17 as the game is so damn good.

"When I strike out the CPU if feels totally earned now."


I 100% agree with this. I work the count, and when I see that strike 3, I get so pumped. Really feels earned knowing you just cant throw whatever and get a SO. I've thrown some high in FB's that when I do, I take a deep breathe and hope it doesn't get nailed....... some work, and some, well I hang my head and say "well not that time" lol

I kinda like it at least I'm making errors. But that 5 error game was a little to crazy. Lol

Really stupid question, but I don't see these sliders in the vault. All I see is the one created by Todem on April 28, not May 28. What am I missing here?

Re: Armor & Sword & Marino's MLB The Show 17 Timed/Classic Simulation

Agree 100%

I am done....absolutely done with sliders for this years game. It's all about playing for me till next years release.

Enjoy them everyone.

And BTW that thread about ball physics changing back to last year post patches.....is the biggest bunch of Horse**** I have read yet in what has become the cess pool known as the general forum for MLBTS.

So disappointed with that forum......Mods....get some control. Seriously. It's getting stupid and it is embarrassing already. Utterly ridiculous. Thread after complaint thread keeps propping up. All whine/agenda threads, all stupid and all can be posted in impressions.

The general forum used to be about tips, gameplay advice, franchise updates and it has divulged into a cesspool of constant complaining and hyperboyle BS.

Out of control.

Yeah it's almost entirely entertainment over there for me now (occasionally there's someone who posts a problem that actually wants help.) It's fun calling some of these inane theories out and watching as I get no reaction or one that makes absolutely no sense.

These people hear only what they want to hear, and ignore everything else. And some of them actually think that constitutes "constructive discussion".

Hilarious.

I just manually updated them myself, but I'll upload the All-Star Gameplay and Sim sets if you'd like.

It's hilarious how many times I've thrown a Betances slurve into the dirt and lost games because of it.
