S & B’s MLB 2024 Simulation Sliders

Re: S & B’s MLB 2024 Simulation Sliders

my first comment I think I mentioned my struggles with meter on Legend.. over the past few years I experimented with sliders a million different ways and it always went the same way. Either i give up 2.5 runs a game or get blasted for 7+ a game. it's like I went just one slider too far and bam.. and like I said, I tried many different combos. any idea why that happened? my theory is the sliders didnt work but it simply went from Legend to Legend+ after a certain threshold was met

I am not sure. I know it is frustrating going through that. I would try V3 with power at 6 for a few games without moving. Just pitch only with one team so you can test faster. Or pitch with both teams in a game. That way you’ll get two different teams.

Do you guys know if there is an actual difference between legend and legend + I can’t tell to be honest

I would say no. There isn't a big difference between Allstar and Allstar + so I assume it would be same difference.

That is an average of 4.4 runs per game so that is good. That is good variety and the games with 5 and 4 runs are good to see.

That is pretty good variety imo.

Reds on the road vs Brewers. Pirates leading division by 3.5 games with a 40-28 record. Brewers and I are tied at 37-32 to start this three game series.

My channel has a bunch of my games played in a playlist if anyone gets bored or just wants to see some gameplay with version 3.

Re: S & B’s MLB 2024 Simulation Sliders

a concerning G6.. Framber vs Blue Jays not a single hard hit ball 2 shut outs in a row.

One thing I found tinkering with sliders and restarting franchises many times... Id start a season with certain settings and get blasted but then by the 4th game CPU would go back to default garbage hitting. started new season with sliders up 1 or two, same thing would happen literally 5 times. I hate this game so much, why did the game makers think making a CPU that cant hit even on Legend would be fun I dont get that

Are you playing as the Astros or random games?

I know you are frustrated and what you are going through is real. We have all been there before. But I think you should try to let the game breathe a little. Try to let the pitcher have a good game or have a pitcher have a bad game. You said before that you would move a slider up and get hammered and then change it back.

Are you still using Meter? What are you using for pitcher control and consistency?

I'm playing as the Dodgers and I had 5 straight games of only giving up 7 hits or less. But then he last two they had 14 and 12.

I have played 21 games with the Dodgers on V3 and they are hitting .244 and my team ERA is 3.40. Compared to the real life Dodgers ERA of 3.16.
I am averaging 3.67 runs allowed per game.

Astros classic.. Im using your settings but bumped up power to 6 halfway through Game 6. I did give up 5 runs to Rangers in Game 8 but that was using Hunter Brown who I lowered to a 70 rating. so I guess we will see what Blanco does in Game 9 I bumped him to a 82

Take it from someone who tests sliders pretty thoroughly like Bryan and I do with these. Playing with one team and only at beginning of the season isn't best way to see how sliders will hold up long term.

Best way is to simulate middle of June at least, or later. This allows players to settle into the season with hot and cold streaks. Because who knows, Verlander could start year with era under 2. But then he goes cold and is knocked around his next 3-4 starts.

Also, play with different teams. I'd recommend picking a day on the calendar and play every game and pitch with each team. Trust us, version 3 produces a large variety of games. Hit distribution percentages are near perfect. Tbh, if anything the cpu average is a tad too high overall but it's fine. Stop restarting a season. Test in middle of season and with every team you can.
