Armor & Sword & Marino's MLB The Show 17 Timed/Classic Simulation All-Star Sliders

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

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.

I'm going to stick with it for a while but something definitely feels off at the moment for me.

My FIRST inside the park home run!!! I can´t believe it!

It was with Brett Gardner, hit to RF, the fielder didn´t jump to the ground to catch the ball, he just put is hand at ground level and failed to catch it.

It was super realistic! Never had this happened to me, it was great!

Armor, do you have any tips to avoid wild pitches?

Prayer....absolute 100% prayer lol. Even with control/consistency at default I still throw too many wild pitches but it's not as bad as it was when I was on 4/4. I've considered going up to 6/6 or 5/6 if guys keep missing spots by such huge margins in my games and consistency at 6 would certainly help with less wild pitches but other then that I'd love to know an answer to your question as well.

I will be posting a forth coming 2017 Yankees Franchise All-Star Breaks update.

Chock full of player stat's, team story lines for the Yankees as well as teams around the league, injury news, trades etc.

It will be thorough as well as contain pics of category leaders, awards races, divisional standings, wild card chase etc.

I look forward to sharing this with you. I have played 90% of the games. I did do some simming. But the sim stats looks great this year IMO.

The Yankees made a big trade this morning unloading Jacoby Ellsbury and IF Ronald Torreyes as well as "C" SP prospect for RP Trevor Rosenthal from the Cardinals.

This will solidify our bullpen for the stretch run, and we were able to unload that awful contract.

Jacoby was very unhappy after losing his starting CF position to Aaron Hicks in May. He was seldom playing and highly disgruntled. The Yankees felt it was time to move on and Jacoby is now platooning in St Louis in LF.

The Yankees recalled utility IF Rob Refsynder and SS Pete Kozma

Our bench is now:

Refsnyder
Ichiro
Romine
Kozma


We are currently in a 3 game set vs the Brewers and then we will have the All-Star Break. So far it looks like these players will be representing the Bronx Bombers in the summer classic:

Ardolis Chapman
Gary Sanchez
Matt Holiday
Starlin Castro

Greg Bird is highly deserving but can't seem to get any steam in the voting. Greg after a very slow start in April is now hitting .292 19HR 51 RBI's

He has really broke out......in the meantime Aaron Judge who has good power numbers (13 HR's 35 RBI's) can't seem to break above .240 as his BA is really lagging at .224 I hope he can pick up the pace a little bit in that department. He has drawn more walks than anyone on the team though.

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

Gonna stream a game (57-38) NY Yankees at (53-44) Seattle. I won the opening game of the series 10-4 thanks to 3 HR's from Nelson Cruz, Mitch Haniger and Justin Morneau combined. Sonny Gray cruised along until the 5th which seems to be his undoing in both starts so far as he gave up 4 runs but was bailed out by the offense. James Paxton vs Michael Pineda in the next game.

EDIT - Apparently they replaced Pineda with some reliever with 33 stamina, no idea what happened but he isn't making the start after all.

Armor,

Long time, first time, great sliders as you have enhanced my games.

Been chasing the Astros around on the road and off the Show grid. Are you using Human Power at 6 now on AS mode like it says on the OP??

Thanks in advance.

You...thank you man glad you are enjoying them and the game.

So Human Power is 5 the (+1) you see is how much I increased or decreased the slider from the last version.

So it is at 5.


Massive trades going on in my Yankees franchise with oodles of story lines. Can’t wait to share!!!

Stay tuned.

Ellsbury has been awful for me too. I've also replaced him in CF with Hicks. I gave him a start in my last game to give Gardner a day off and he was atrocious. Struck out twice, fouled out to 3rd and hit a dribbler back to the pitcher. My biggest and best move so far was calling up Gleyber Torres to replace the injured Headley at third. He's hitting over .400 with a homer and 3 RBI's in 6 games. He actually had a hit in each of his first 5 before going hitless in my last game.

I really hope the patch doesn't change anything drastically. If it fixed wild pitches and toned down HR's a little more I'd be happy but patches always worry me.

Looks like it was a fix for online gameplay. It shouldn't effect our gameplay at all.

I´ve restarted my Yankees season 5 times (rosters, sliders, patches, etc...) and Elsbury was never good. Always on the very low 200 BA, lot´s of strikeouts, lot´s of double plays and usually lost is job to Hicks too.

However, in my current season (that i swear i´ll finish this time) he is, through 11 games, batting 410 (leads team), with 12 RBI´s (leads team), and 3 HR´s (one less than A. Judge). I swear that i dont´know what got to him this time...

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

Wow guys,

The trading frenzy going on in my franchise is glorious.

Now I use 30 team control and I go around the league, look at standings, team budgets and markets and also who they have in their trade block.

I then create my storylines and execute fair and reasonable trades that make real sense.

I can tell you The Rockies are 15 games back and are in rebuild mode dumping expiring contracts like:

Cargo
Lemaieu
Blackmon
Gray

They have made some serious trades and loaded up on some young talent. They can still win next season!!

The Royals moved Hosmer (just wait till you see the deal they made and with who)

The Whitesox are in first place at the break!!!

The Marlins are only 4 back and made a bold move for a rental starter!!!

The Dodgers, Cubs, Blue Jays and Rangers were involved with The Rockies purge!!!

But all of them paid with high level prospects and some old veterans as throw in's.

A huge All-Star break trade write up is coming today at some point.

Chock full of story capsules with player/GM reactions on all the deals.
