Armor & Sword & Marino’s MLB The Show 19 Classic/Directional Simulation Sliders

Re: Armor & Sword & Marino’s MLB The Show 19 Classic/Directional Simulation Sliders

9 is the way to go for played games and 6 when you simulate and advance the day.

I get a good variety at 9.

1. Lately I’ve been playing a lot of games in “Quick Manage” mode. As you know, I was in the 2019 ALCS a few days ago when my system error fiasco happened in Game 7. I ended up losing the “re-do” of the game... I went through the offseason and in my 2020 season I’m playing every 6th game, and quick managing all the rest. That way each time through I’m using the next starting pitcher in the rotation, and I can get through the whole season playing just 27 games. I’m just trying to do as much as I can before 20 comes out, since I’m not into carrying my old franchises over for whatever reason. I like to start fresh every year and see how much I can get in. My point is that for these quick manage games, should the injury slider be at 6 or 9? I think it’s 6, correct? I’ve been leaving it at 6 but have seen just 1 minor day to day injury for Chad Green in 24 games.
Also, pitcher stamina seems to decrease slower in quick manage. Not sure if you or anyone else on here uses quick manage too often and have noticed this, but let me know what you think.

2. How do the new fielder dynamics such as what to do on sinking line drives affect those of us, I think most who use these sliders, that use automatic fielding and non meter throwing?

I guess I could add to this the same question for the new “perfect perfect” hitting thing. Should I expect to notice any difference using directional hitting?

**I have not watched the full stream so don’t sue me if this was answered in the stream and I haven’t seen it

Armor, do you base your sliders to match real life stats or more of what feels right to you?

It is always about what feels right and feels like baseball to me and the stats always take care of themselves.

I play all 162 in my main franchise. So I own it. I do not chase stats to be frank. I want to enjoy the game first and foremost.

Hey Armor with the Show 20 just 4 weeks away from release im curious to see if you plan on buying it and making a set for that as well ? Yes I know it's still 4 long weeks away but I'm pumped for it and really want to get it but if ur not getting it and not making a new set than that means I'll most likely have to hold off myself . I Just really hope u give in and grab it and work ur magic for our sake lol I've looked around at various different sets and how guys approach this game and I don't like what I see .

These sliders are working well for my franchise. I usually dont like to mess with sliders I'd rather set em and forget em.

On a side note, not sure how you feel about this but, I used to have trouble hitting and I would go back and forth between veteran all star HOF etc .... could never master it.

Turns out the problem was pitch speed. I lowered it a lot. And then once I mastered it, I bumped it up. The difficulty setting wasnt the problem is was the speed of the pitches. I just had to get the timing down.

It feels like not enough people talk about the pitch speed when they're struggling at the plate.

That is correct. The difference in the different levels are:

Veteran - A lot more fat pitches over the plate, CPU pounds the heart of the strike zone a lot more, wide timing window

All-Star - Pitcher AI is smarter than Veteran, Less fat strikes, smaller timing window

HOF - The pitcher AI is even better than All-Star, they will try to get you to chase more, much tougher on 2 strike counts, you need to be able to lay off pitches. Timing window even tighter than All-Star

Legend - The toughest challenge in terms of Pitcher AI and a much smaller timing window.

I found my groove and best balance hitting on HOF with default pitch speeds. But if you are struggling on HOF but love the pitcher AI like I do on HOF turn the pitch speed down.

Likewise if you find it too easy to hit on HOF at default pitch speeds start moving them up one click at a time and settle in to the feel and difficulty you want.

The sliders on The Show are the best. They truly do what they say and are highly responsive.

Yeah on HOF it's very realistic, which is what I'm going for. But I noticed the problem wasn't my judgement of the strike zone, it was my reaction time to the fastball. So I turned down the pitch speed and got good at it, then upped the pitch speed. Worked out well.

I am mostly looking forward to even better gameplay yet again.

I will be carrying over the Year 4 2017 Yankees franchise, 1987 Yankees Year 1, Fantasy Cardinals Year 4.

I will await Bacons Fictional Franchise and play as the Twins in the old Metrodome Stadium!

I will take March 13th off and jump right into a test franchise using the out of the box....Full Minors (so nice that is a reality now). We will be streaming all day and all weekend when the game drops and hopefully have a great HOF slider set out.

Not a slider question, but is there a way to carry over the sounds of the show to the new game? It takes so long to load all the team’s songs and now with a 8 month old I am lucky to get a game in a day.

Re: Armor & Sword & Marino’s MLB The Show 19 Classic/Directional Simulation Sliders

Oh yeah I as well will be taking off the 13th and playing the show all weekend long that weekend!! And than pretty much every day after that for the next 6 months. Lol only the Show does that to me.

Every year the gameplay just gets a little better even when you think it can't it still does. I am so looking forward to those wow moments as I go through my franchise.

Man, I have got to learn how to incorporate this in to my franchises.
