MLB Power Pros Gameplay Question Thread

Re: MLB Power Pros Gameplay Question Thread

My hits have gone down recently. Or maybe my offense is just anemic.

Can't be, though. I have Utley, Aramis, Howard, and Hawpe as my 2-6.

I played around with the settings and things seem to be more realistic.

My bullpen SUCKS though. I hate wasting amazing starts by my starters.

Keep practicing them. They should get better.

anyone up to 50000 credits yet?

in the shop, , that "credit game" for 50000 pp sounds like u're betting 50000 per game...
"you can play a game with your credits!"

if i'm right, sounds like a shortcut to 100000 to me.

am i wrong?

That's interesting.

What would be funny is if they let you play the game risking 50,000, but you can't pick who you play, and they put you up against a hall of Fame squad....lol. Bye bye 50,000 credits...lol.

On a sideonote....

Does anyone else know of any other active forum sites for this game? I'm trying to take in as much info as possible about the game, but haven't found any active forums about this game.

This site and these threads are great for this game without it, alot of us would be no where.

Anyone found any other active forums/threads for this game?

i've found it interesting, the usually busy 2K boards (for good or bad), are very dead in the Power Pros section.
http://japanesebaseball.com has some interesting posts, although from a different point of view

Re: MLB Power Pros Gameplay Question Thread

It seems like you can't... which is really annoying because I haven't gotten my settings to the point where I'm comfortable with them yet for the long term.

I went in on normal, default settings and now i'm dominating with Hitting (seriously, 20-5 games) but sucking on Pitching . I guess I could turn autolock on less, but would that even solve the problem?


Also I think a dedicated MLB power Pro's site would be ace. That'd be quite awesome lol.

Is it just me or does it seem that when you're leading in a close game the computer "cheats", i.e. starts getting lots o hits. Could be that it's cause I'm playing against the sox, but twice they've come back to beat me.

On the zoom in view using X on the PS3, I was Using Ryan Howard at AT&T Park. I hit one out into McCovey Cove....What the hell, they show it splash in the water.........how come it takes this game to finally figure out how cool that is. It seems in almost every wishlist for either of the other games, its splattered all over the place " show the ball go into the water" It takes a "kids" game according to the public, to get this down.

I second this one. For years I've hated how the baseball games don't show the out of ballpark dingers. The joy of watching your home run land is almost as much fun as hitting it.

In this game you can hit the buildings outside wrigley, the cars outside Shea and Dodger stadium. I'm still trying to land one in the pool at Chase field to see what happens. Heck I even hit a moving bus outside of Wrigley. That was very cool.

Kudos to Konami and 2k...

What's cool is that you can test out things like this during fielding practice. I've been trying to climb walls and make a catch, but so far it seems like there's no way to reach for the ball when you climb.

Maybe it only reaches when there's a ball nearby?

Yea, gamefaqs is pretty active but there's a lot more noise than there is over here since it's not moderated heavily.

Re: MLB Power Pros Gameplay Question Thread

Anyone know if you get points for finishing season mode and how much?

Was thinking of just simming that and getting points.

I'm just trying to get points to buy the arrange feature, just to see if it lets you use ALL Arrange teams in season mode or just one.

It would make it 100 times easier that way to edit rosters the way I want them.

I took Bonds in PNC on HR derby, hit 13 HRs in a row, and got 450 pts, took me 2 minutes, so if you do that 5 times, you would have 2250, faster than a 20 minute exhibition at 2000 pts, so if you kept going for about 8 hours straight, you would have 100,000 pts

Just ask the 2007 Yankee's about coming back at the end of games
