Re: Armor & Sword & Marino’s MLB The Show 18 Classic/Directional Simulation Sliders

A) Does anyone else get this glitch as often as I do?



B) On groundballs to first how do you control your player (assuming u use the same auto fielding setup as Armor does). I tap O and 1st baseman either takes it himself or tosses it to the pitcher. Is there any other option that could possibly limit this issue from popping

I, knock on wood, have never had this happen. But i dont want to speak to soon so im not saying this.

It could be one of 3 things. Either: I've been very fortunate (hope not) Or, it was introduced on a later patch than im using in this franchise, Or, it is because i use Left Analog instead of buttons to throw/go to bases.

This has happened to me for years. I don't know maybe it's just freddie Freeman because I play as the Braves as well.

Armor - trying to stay true to the process here, but the cpu is really scuffling on offense.

Over last 9 games the Rockies, Dodgers and Angels are a combined 52 for 297 (.175 avg) with 6 home runs (four of which came in one game), 25 runs scored (inc 7 in the game with the home runs) and 72ks. With 2 sac flies included in this, that's a babip of .208! Should I look at contact, solids, pitcher control or nothing?! Currently, all as OP.

Struggling to just accept the wins and keep rolling (as it is, I'm hitting like crap and, whilst I have won 7 of these 9, 5 are by 1 run and the other 2 by 2, and I've had 3 extra inning games and two wins in the 9th!), it just doesn't feel right to be steam rollering these teams.

Interested to hear your thoughts.

Re: Armor & Sword & Marino’s MLB The Show 18 Classic/Directional Simulation Sliders

Really debating restarting my franchise w/ the Hybrid roster or starting up a secondary franchise w/ a new team.

Just can't seem to get my Braves to perform the way I want lol. 12 games back in mid June and outside of one huge win streak haven't really done much this season.

If I can't figure a new team I might just restart my Braves chise and sim it up to today's date (which is where I'm at in the franchise as well). Braves are really fun to play with this year, just have had so much bad luck combined with issues with my play (lack of patience at the plate combined with not throwing enough balls so I can get my pitchers past the 5th inning) that have put me so far behind that I'm playing less games each week.

Re: Armor & Sword & Marino’s MLB The Show 18 Classic/Directional Simulation Sliders

Only stats that are off for me as a whole is my ERA. Everyone in the 4.5-5 range except Soroka who is just over 3. That's mainly a combination of my tendency to not throw many balls (and when I try to i end up throwing a wild pitch or it misses so bad that it gets crushed for a homerun). Main reason I've done that is I couldn't ever seem to get a pitcher past the 5th inning if I was trying to paint corners and willing to give up walks n such. Don't know what I'm doing wrong there.

Batting wise my stats have been really good outside of a couple players that I just struggle to get hits with (Albies and Inciarte). Inciarte has been a problem player for me for years. I don't know what it is about his swing but I have such a big problem hitting popups with him lol.

I don't fear any of the hitters. I can pitch 70%+ of my pitches for strikes and only give up 5 or 6 hits. I am in the top ten in hrs allowed. Everything seems to be weak grounders putt fly balls

Re: Armor & Sword & Marino’s MLB The Show 18 Classic/Directional Simulation Sliders

Blockbuster went down today in my franchise. Yanks traded Severino to Col for Tyler Anderson (actually having better year than sevy at asb) and David Dahl who’s having a nice year in limited playing time as the Rockies have a logjam in the outfield. Thought this was a really interesting trade that shows imporivemnt in overpall logic in terms of value for value. Interested what the community thinks

Anderson is older and less talented then Sevy and the last thing the Yanks need is another outfielder, no way this trade would happen in real life imo. Both are good players don’t get me wrong but Sevy has the potential to be one of the next great pitchers

I definitely understand that and took it into account when thinking about vetoing it. However, the Yanks haven’t been getting much hicks, ellsbury, Gardner, or Frazier. Dahl was a high end prospect not too long ago, I think it’s a nice fit

Re: Armor & Sword & Marino’s MLB The Show 18 Classic/Directional Simulation Sliders

Can someone explain the following on the first page of the sliders:

Human Power 5 (-1)

Should Human Power be set a 5 or has it now been lowered to 4? Trying to understand what the parenthesis means here? What the original setting 5 and subsequently lowered to 4?

Thanks.
