I'm having a tough time with hit variety.. Solo HRs are constantly my offense. Now that I have the timing down HRs have picked up big time. I'm wondering if foul frequency changes the hitting variety. Not sure if it changes the contact when the pitch is on the black..

Re: Armor & Sword & Marino's MLB The Show 17 Timed/Classic Simulation All-Star Slider
Pitching on HOF is maddening for me. God forbid I score a run in an inning because 80% of the time the CPU is going to at least get it back. It wouldn't be so bad if so was leaving pitches over the plate but it's not the case and the CPU just seems to decide when to turns things in their favor even though they couldn't seem to hit until I scored in the previous inning.
I just don't know what to do at this point because pitching on All Star isn't much of a challenge. I'm all for losing if I'm playing poorly but something seems amiss pitching on HOF.Comment

Try all star plus, you would need to use dynamic difficulty to get there. It's where I've settled in at and I'm enjoying it.

Do you have it on the All Star Sliders or Hall of Fame sliders when you are on All Star+? Do you have Ptchibg Cont and Cons at 2 and 3 or at 5?Follow me on Twitch

I'm using analog pitching so my sliders on the pitching side are all different. 4 and 4 on consistency and control. CPU all default except timing at 4 and foul freq at 1.

I test and develop these on Classic Pitching. I really can’t give you feedback on Analog pitching as I do not use it and never have.
On Classic pitching with no ball marker and controller vibration I am loving HOF pitching. Highly realistic and rewarding. I have had to step up my game, have ultimate focus on every pitch, really mix things up the second and third time through the order. Look at my previous pitch sequence for each batter, and set them up.
I have been racked, I have thrown shut outs, I have had amazing games.
Nothing is amiss for me personally. It is the perfect level for my skill level on classic pitching.
Sometimes hitters get hits and even HR’s on pitches that typically are tough to hit. It does not happen often for me.....but it has happened.
And that’s baseball.
Very very pleased with the move to HOF. Hope you can find some better balance on HOF.
If I can give you any suggestion.....go default 5/5 for human pitching sliders.Last edited by Armor and Sword; 06-07-2017, 08:24 AM.Now Playing on PS5:

So are you guys changing the injury slider between every game?

I keep mine on 7 the whole time and never touch it. 7 or 8 is the sweet spot in my opinion for an overall balance.

A&S, not trying to hijack the thread--so I'll keep this short, but RUX, once you've settled, do you have the change frequency (or w/e it's called) at 0--or leave at default?Arsenal | New York YankeesComment

Re: Armor & Sword & Marino's MLB The Show 17 Timed/Classic Simulation All-Star Slider
Once I realized I wanted to stay at as plus, I zeroed out the slider. That way I'm stuck at this level. If I decide later to move around I'll move it back to default. I'm having a mix of good and bad pitching outcomes on this level so I'm happy for now. I think if anything I'd adjust a slider or two here before I make the jump to hof, personally.
I also play quick counts only so it works better for me here as occasionally I'll get in put into tough counts so that is providing a difficulty boost in certain spots as well.

Wow... Not played in 2 weeks, got roster-itus (waiting for new hybrid). Just beat oakland 8 4 in oakland (liriano vs manaea). 14 hits to 5 and ZERO hr! First time that's happened for me... What a game!
