Nothing. Using current patch with Armor and Josh sliders. Only real change is 5-3-5 awhile ago. But had nothing to do with response to wild pitch.

Ive seen those also. It has for sure improved. I don't think I have seen a runner take off or if they do, they are caught when its in the dirt close to the plate.

I was in that spot where AS was too easy and HOF too hard when pitching. I play at AS plus now. Trick dynamic difficulty by using All Star teams against AA teams and the dynamic slider on ten. Once you get there, drop the slider to zero and leave it. It is worth it.

This is actually pretty good advice. I never thought about that. I wonder if the same theory can be applied to my hitting because I'm finding Veteran too easy but All-Star just a little bit too hard. My only question is does that annoying difficulty bar show up at the top before every at bat when you set the slider to 0?

You can set DD to display only at the beginning of a game, in which case you'd see it at the first pitch for your pitcher and at the first pitch for your first batter. After that, it disappears.

You can turn that off in game play settings. On the General screen you will see Dynamic update. You can set it to either progress, start of game, or new level.

You know, I have it set to progress thinking that meant it would only show when I progress. Now I get it.

I"m on board with the HOF pitching. Love the extra challenge. I hung a few pitches and definitely paid for it.

Just wanted to share something I have experienced on HOF pitching since so many guys are trying it out lately. You will get knocked around more often than you did on AS no doubt. It's kind of like a rookie pitcher finding his groove. It is however so much more rewarding when you have a great outing. Pitched a complete game last night with my ace felt great!! 5 hits 1 run struck out 5.

I have Cole Hamels on my draft team this year. I drafted him as the ace of my mediocre pitching staff. Here are some numbers so far this year.

Hamels Game 1st 4 Starts
27.1 IP 29H 13R 13ER 4BB 18SO 4.28ERA

Hamels Real Life 1st 4 Starts
26.0 IP 25H 10R 8ER 9BB 14SO 3.25ERA

Pretty amazing to me!! Don't give up I have been on HOF pitching now all of 16 and 17 with Armor's sliders it's a game changer..

Armor,

if using HOF pitching you move human pitcher control & consistency up to 4, correct? I just noticed that you don't have that on the OP.

Hello,

Ive been having great results with these sliders. I play 1 Full game (No QC) and Quick manage 5. Thank You for the time and effort you put into these sliders, they really enhance my experience.

My question is do you use Broadcast view for Offense and Defense for a reason? Ive recently started using Retro view and feel like Ive been getting almost all singles with a few homeruns. Haven't seen many Doubles at all. Could be a small sample size, just wanted to see if you had any thoughts.

What I would love to see is a strictly pitch edit roster, but leaving the SCEA ratings in tact (other than pitch edits of course). So an OSFM V2 with pitch edits only. I played with one of those back on MLBTS15 and it was amazing.

Anybody else interested in a roster like this enough to help me out with it? I'm going to use Ridin's 2.5 when it comes out and put in MBMav's pitch edits. I don't have but 20 mins a day or so to do this during the week so by myself it would take a long time.

Armor any luck toying with quick counts?? I'm assuming control definitely needs a bump..fouls maybe down a knotch and manager hook needs to go down..I saw a closer come in against me with a 3 run lead in the 9th gets the first two out and then walks the third batter and gets pulled, something that wouldn't happen..

I have seen that once when I was playing the Cardinals. I had a runner on with 2 outs in a one run game. They took out Oh with 2 outs and put in a LHP to face a RHB. I was upset they did that but then looking back, even though he did not pitch the day before, he had 8 saves in the last 10 games so I chalked it up to low energy. Cause I have seen the closer stay in the game in similar situations.
