S & B’s MLB 2024 Simulation Sliders

Re: S & B’s MLB 2024 Simulation Sliders

If anyone wants a bump in CPU, I tried one game with 7/6/7/5 and the CPU lit me up. The Rays scored 16 runs on 23 hits. You can sure tell the difference between power at 5 and 6.

Just moving Contact from 5 - 7 seems (regardless of other bumps) seems to do a lot to fix CPU batting averages and strikeout rate.

I’m not sure what a good value is. We have it at 0 to get more hits down the line. Raising it could lower the amount of hits down the line that would have been fair.

I see the version 4.. thanks for continuing to put in the work. what is frustrating is feeling like we have a good set of sliders then after a few dozen games it reverts to being too easy again. it's a constant adjustment, it seems

I have noticed that. That is frustrating.

it's a poorly made simulation.. once upon a time all these games were was a simulation so the game makers spent the time focusing on just that. now they dont have to focus on that aspect of the game as much.

It’s really frustrating.. I’m about to just give up on the game. Pitching to the CPU is just too boring (it’s mindless) and CPU hitting just isn’t there. 50% chase rates and they strikeout like crazy unless contact is at 9 or 10
I just don’t understand how some can play 162 games and keep their full attention

Pitching in general to me personally has always been boring and mindless, even when CPU was more dangerous at the plate.

Last couple years it's been just quick sim innings I pitch, made the game more challenging.

This year I started using Legend + via Dynamic Difficulty and I'll pitch every 3rd inning or so. I've had innings where I just get torched, but still few and far between. But a bit more challenging at times.

I'm also curious as I mentioned before on how guys pitch to the CPU, it shouldn't matter, but it does. Very easy on all levels to get a pattern that the CPU just can't do anything with.

If more guys would pitch to where the catcher recommends, they might see some more offense from them. Maybe not, but it's taboo around here to even have catcher suggestions even on LOL.

Are y'all still having trouble with these latest settings? I just got swept by the NYY where getting them out was a real challenge. Then won 2 of 3 against Pitt. Feels sort of like the ebbs and flows of a season.

I am still plugging away but I had 6 straight games where the CPU didn’t have more than 6 hits and most of those games they happen in one inning. The last game against the Cardinals they scored 4 runs on 3 hits in the first inning. They finished the game with 4 runs on 6 hits. But I feel it is just a stretch and I’m going to give it more games before I adjust anything.

Okay cool just checking. I'm keeping an eye on my end as well.

Re: S & B’s MLB 2024 Simulation Sliders

I really wish they added a “chase” slider for CPU hitting.
Chasing bad pitches is a major problem for them even on legend difficulty. They go after absolute junk pitches. The early swing on the fast ball also drives me nuts..

The closest sliders I had to something decent was 10 contact, 10 timing and 7 power. Problem with those is they still chase at 50% most games and when they make contact everything is a line drive

same thing has been happening to me.. starters ERAs are reasonable but I have 4 relievers with ERAs under 1.5.

It's just a poorly made game, all there is to it. every one of us here knows how great this game could be, that is what really stinks

Cpu hitting is just not good.. I agree the frustration is that the game could really be great

We aren’t the only ones that feel the cpu hitting sucks
