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

Hey Armor, nice update on your post. I noticed you said that Judge will be looking at a extension at the deadline. What did you decide to do with the arbitration eligible players? I know you said you will do the number generator for pending free agents. I believe you said 1-25 they will test free agency and 26-100 you will make them an offer.



Question on the offer; do you plan on giving them what they are asking for or are you lowering the offer?

So only my top five pending free agents or pending arbitration eligible players.

So when it comes to arbitration if I want to offer an extension, I will generate a random number and 1-25 means they do not want to extend and want to go to arbitration.

26-100 I will attempt to extend them.

Same for pending free agents.

I will do this for every team at the trade deadline.

Once the season is over I will then let the chips fall wherever they may for the other 29 teams in terms of free agency.

I do create trade deadline story lines and now that we have in-season extensions this will spice that up even more!

Holding and release X at certain points of the motion does have a effect on the pitch.

I’m finding with a majority of the pitchers if you hold X and release at the top of their leg lift you get the most benefit of their pitches. It also seems that holding the direction you’re aiming through delivery helps with accuracy.

Armor this will be my first year trying your sliders out and my first year using classic pitching do you have any tips or advice? I have heard alot of good things about your sliders and do you prefer 30 team control? The last time I tried to do it, it set all the teams to the same profile even when i had them all set to one except my team. Have u experienced that?

Hey man. Check out the opening post. Armor pretty much explains in depth his philosophy on all these subjects. It really hasn't changed much in the last several yeara

Absolutely loving The SHOW and the sliders this year!

However, the classic pitching is a bit frustrating - I feel like it is almost completely random most of the time. I've experimented with different hold lengths, locations, pitches, you name it (I have read the classic pitching thread more than once) and it seems to just get a random spot for the ball. I would say I hit my spot or close to it only around 10% of the time. I do use the pitch trail because I'm not very good at the feel part and my controller's vibration is broken. So I always know where I am trying to locate the ball.

The crazy part is I am really liking the stats it is producing, but feels like I have very little control over pitching other than pitch selection. I'm getting pitches missing by over a foot consistently... but sometimes those end up as Ks, bombs or balls so the stats work themselves out.

Is there something I'm missing or is it all about ratings and stats and the randomness is what I should like and I should just roll with it since the stat sim is working out pretty well?

I did play one game with meter pitching (same sliders) and I would still miss spots, but much more consistent. Had 10Ks and 0 walks though. Typically with classic I've been around 6-8K and 2-6walks, which I like better.

It’s all about your pitchers release point.. learn their release points people! I’m telling you guys. Yes ratings still are the main factor but once you learn when to release the butting.. you’ll enjoy pitching so much more. Forget the tap or the vibration. Turn on you pitch and swing display until you find out where each one of your pitchers release points are.

There is no pitch feedback for classic pitching though. Are you saying find the arm point of each of your pitchers in their throwing animation and release there?
Makes a lot of sense... Sadly I have actually never even considered that. I will give it a try.

There is if the batter doesn’t make contact with the ball I think it’s weird how it works

Interesting. Never noticed it, just looked in the settings that said no feedback. It gives you the meter feedback of "early", "late" etc.?

They will not cut a player from the 40 man to make room for him because you have that set to manual. So you will have add him tot he 40 MAN and make a cut.

Once you set lineups and rotations for all 30 teams do you put the 40-man roster option to “auto”? Same thing for injury management?

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

Been testing some more hitting tweaks on HOF.

Stay tuned.
