    HCP's MLB 20 "Here We Go" Setup

    What's up peeps, here we go again with MLB 20. Haven't posted a set in a few years, but wound up with a very nice set last year so thought I'd post again this season. Obviously as first gonna be rocking default until I get a decent sample size (you come in here, more on that later).

    The only facet of my setup I never revert to default at beginning of a new game release is my pitch speeds. Fastball is at 10 and Offspeed at 9 and I will not budge those. Its gonna take a good at least 50 games before I'll move a slider off default. So far in my games default has looked best I've seen from Show.

    So you come in helping get to the threshold for tweaks faster. The more stats/Feedback/vids I get the faster I can tune this out for a even better game.

    My initial impressions of default so far are:

    1. User power needs to be watched as lot of scoring via HR so far.

    2. User pitcher control may have to be lowered for more walk results.

    Okay so here's the setup so far. I'll upload to vault after I post this, and out my PSN at bottom. Please help me round this game out!

    You're batting camera is going to be very important in you getting good and consistent results. I always suggest taking a good look at your camera before adjusting sliders for Human Hitting.

    Here's a link to my approach to using Directional Hitting.

        Re: HCP's MLB 20 "Here We Go" Setup

        I like them so far... I did increase solid hits to 6 for both human and cpu as the ground balls seemed a little to weak. several ground balls felt like they were coming off the end of the bat.

        I also lowered Foul frequency to 3 for both human and cpu .. Way too many foul balls, especially for the cpu. Each cpu player seem to foul off 8 pitches or more in each at bat. I felt that was a little much.

        Everything else is at default

        Thru 6 games I have a record in my Franchise of 4 - 2

        W.. 9-6
        L.. 8-11
        W.. 5-4
        W.. 6-5
        L.. 0-7
        W.. 4-3

          That's how it is man, best I can provide anyone really is a good base to make those personal little tweaks to to match your style.

          There are definitely more changes coming to the set tho, I'm just set funny ways of never making changes without a 20-30 game sample size. And I haven't gotten there yet, currently playing game 12 of my Yanks chise.

                  HCP's MLB 20 &amp;quot;Here We Go&amp;quot; Setup

                  I’m seeing similar things as you. I don’t think power is too high. I believe there are just too many meatballs being thrown. For the CPU I didn’t want to change anything that would reduce player differentiation, like control or consistency. I don’t want to see every pitcher being Cy Young. Rather I just lowered CPU Strike Freq. to 4 so that they will nibble wayyyy more and it’s worked wonders so far (small sample). As far as user goes. I’m just being more careful with my pitches knowing how dangerous the CPU is this year.

                    Interesting, I would love to see some of your boxscores and results with that.

                          Very very small sample size here can't stress that enough, but here are the results after 1st 6 games after switch to 7 consistencies.

                          User Runs: 18 / Runs Via HR: 6 / % of Runs Via HR: 33.33%

                          CPU Runs: 22 / Runs Via HR: 7 / % of Runs Via HR: 31.81%
