Re: Mike Lowe MLB The Show 20 Sliders
Congrats on the 162 game season. Sorry you didn't make the playoffs.
Just wanted to share some feedback. I am only 5 games into my Yankee franchise, but what a difference from previous editions.
First, with your sliders, I can actually DRAW WALKS! This is something I could NEVER do in previous games. I played 3 games against Baltimore Orioles and 2 against Tampa and I drew 19 walks in 5 games.
Second, it is SO satisfying to be able to work the count and not be behind 0-2 every at-bat. And when the count is 3-2, the CPU doesn't always throw a strike. It will try and get you to chase a pitch outside the zone.
I do still strike out a lot, but that's my fault and not because I can't hit. I have struck out 76 times in 5 games so far. I am hoping I can cut that down as the year progresses.
Pitching is more of a challenge on Legend which I think is great and realistic. I have only walked 2 batters so far in 5 games but pitching (I use meter) does feel tougher.
Last game I was up 3-0 against the Rays in the 6th with Jordan Montgomery cruising along. Choi hits a solo HR, next batter is Zunino and he hits a HR, Joey Wendle singles, 2 batters later, Austin Meadows hits a 2-Run HR. I lost a 3 run lead in the span of 5 batters.
And my pitch edits seem to be working really well. Love the variety of pitches and my control ratings are a bit lower than the base ratings so it's a little bit more of a challenge.
Thanks again for all the hard work on your slider set.
