    Rmiok222 All Star MLB The Show 21 Sliders

    If anybody is using this set I apologize for all these changes. Don’t hate me.

    As I pitched on HOF it felt so off. The cpu was zero threat and at the same also I couldn’t strike them out.

    My tipping point (after multiple games) was when I threw a 92 pitch complete game shutout with Chris Flexen with ONE strikeout. This isn’t just a one game decision obviously. to add on top of this, I am not a statistic obsessed player on this game but I do like it to be SOMEWHAT realistic..my last two games I pitched 18 innings and had TWO strikeouts. That’s just not right. I then tried to lower timing for the cpu, after I did that they would literally be late on 77 mph changeups and stuff. It looked ridiculous and really dampened my gameplay.


    THAT BEING SAID. I’m changing this to a strictly all star set. Where it’s more difficult on the user side for hitting and pitching. Like I said, anybody that’s using these and have not jumped ship during all this change, my bad.

    I just refuse to make these massive slider changes where in the end ratings are just useless, I made that mistake in past versions of games..it’s a massive rabbit hole. I try to stick to default as much as possible and I wasn’t able to do that on HOF. So human sliders, default besides timing. Im putting at 2. I know that sounds crazy but it balances out me putting user solid hits back to 5, and it’s honestly a nice bridge between AS and HOF this year. Every hitting slider on cpu side is at default. OP updated.

    Disregard my post from literally yesterday where I said I wasn’t changing anything. [emoji23]

      And for the record. Since LOWERING my pitching difficulty I have 5 strikeouts through 4 innings. I’m losing by 3 and have gave up a 437 foot HR to Ian Happ. It’s incredible how you can slowly go down a hole of changing slider after slider just to notice this game is pretty great out of the box on all star.

          Quick question. For someone who is using 10/10 pitch speeds do you think I should raise HUM timing up a notch or 2 or do you think it will imbalance other sliders?

            No it should be okay on 10/10. Obviously if you’re struggling to time it up just bump it up some. 2 on all star is still easier than 5 on HOF and I just wanted a bridge between AS and HOF. I’d try 2 and if it’s too hard I’d bump it up

              As I got my timing back I was able to move hitting to HOF! OSFM is out. Sliders are set. It’s opening day in my Mariners franchise! Taking on the giants at home. Streaming now

                I decided to not do a Phillies franchise for the first time in ages and am also playing with the Mariners since I’ve been living in the PNW the past few years.

                2-3 against the Giants and now I take on the 4-0 White Sox.

                Using your sliders with OSFM and am having a great time so far.

                  Amazing man I’m glad you’re enjoying. I think I jinxed myself. I was talking how my timing improved.....struck out 13 times! Lol. It’s one game and I expect growing pains with this young Mariners team. They’re ranked 2nd to last in terms of contact. Lost 4-3 against the giants. Absolute heartbreak as I was down 4-1 in the bottom on the 9th. Hit a two run HR with Lewis to cut the lead down to one. Singled with Seager, used a pinch runner. Stole second. Then struck out to end the game. Ugh.

                  I was at the edge of my seat though. Fun game!

                    I raked my first game and won 6-0. Next game right back down to Earth and I lose 1-2.

                    Final game of the series I’m down 1-2 in the bottom of the 8th and Haniger hits a two run go-ahead homer and Giles gets the save in the ninth. Been a fun ride so far.

                      Streaming game two of my season now. I can already tell you it’ll more than likely be rough. My Mariners team is going against a lefty and they are AWFUL vs lefties. Hoping for the best. Looking for our first win.

                        Well we are 0-2 to start the year. It’s definitely obvious that the Mariners are ranked 29th in contact. The sliders are working really well. We are trying to avoid the sweep tonight against the Giants. I’m excited to try and get this team hitting well, as well as bring up some of these prospects at some point this year. We are completely fine on the speed and defensive aspect of the game. This team is very fast and has a lot of gold glove potential players.

                        So far the game feels great and I’m getting realistic numbers. I’m not a “stat junkie” by any means but my numbers and stats are very in line. One thing I like is I’m getting a good amount of strikeouts and also striking out at a realistic clip. My top 2 starters gave up 2 HRs a piece the first two games. The only thing that is slightly concerning to me is there is a lot of foul balls, that being said the game is playing so well that I’m scared to even change anything. Human pitch control at 4 on all star has been nice too. On 5 I was throwing way too many strikes, over 70%. I’ll be streaming around 8pm EST tonight if anybody is interested. When the kiddos go to bed I’ll be on!

                            Has anybody else noticed pitch speeds are faster this year? Or did I just hit 30 years old and my reactions slowed down instantly 🤣

                              I am two innings away from my first no hitter in any baseball game of my life [emoji51] I’m also sadly getting shut out. Lol


                              Edit: lost it in the 8th

                                Small update in OP. I’m very inbetween all star and HOF hitting. So I’ve adjusted to make HOF a tad easier for myself.
