    For all the people that find ZONE too easy, but don`t like cursors !!!

    I was also one of many that was totally killing the ball with ZONE...Then I decided to tinker with all the player options and give TIMED hitting a chance..and I have been VERY impressed with it , Im hitting the ball to all parts of the field, Im seeing high choppers, slow grounders , seeing eye singles, doubles down the lines.. ECT.. ECT

    Im also striking out and even being patient and getting some walks

    Here`s what you do to get very realistic results .......


    #1 Play on HOF

    #2 Turn off the strike zone when batting....so you have to be your own judge on pitch location

    #3 Turn off Batting and Pitching aids...For added realism

    #4 Use manual fielding

    #5 Use the fastest pitch speed available....

    Doing all this will give you very challenging and close games with timed hitting


    My first 3 games with this set up W 1-0 W 5-4 in 11 innings and L 3-2..and Im not a rookie I have been playing ASB on the highest level for 3 yrs and Im finding this combination to be a challenge

    Im sure there are lots of people that will find this still to easy, but for the rest of us that want an alternative to ZONE and hate cursors....It`s a answer

    Let me hear some feedback !!!!

    I'll try it tonight, though it doesn't sound very interesting not having to aim your swing....

          Before you do that, try the fix for zone P proposed in a thread.

                Good to try but you can't use such options when playing online. Little things make this game real good. Little things make this game a bummer.

                      Why is it that you play on Hall of Fame and not Legend? I found "Timed" hitting to be WAY too easy on Legend. My amounts of hits were ridiculous. Thus, I'm using the 3D curser now. I've never really been a fan of any cursor, but this is the only way I've found to get realistic results and it sure is a challenge.

                            I`ll try lowering my pitch speed to "classic" and see what happends using ZONE but I can`t get over the no foul ball GAME KILLER !!! in ZONE and honestly Im finding timing to be "very realistic" with those altered playing options

                            Heres the break down between the 2 options

                            ZONE you can aim your hits and get lots of variety but NEVER foul a pitch off
                            TIMED You CAN`T aim hits but still get lots of variety & you get foul balls

                            I can live without aiming all my hits but it`s really nice to see pitches actually fouled off in timed batting insted of 100 % contact "Thats ultra un-realistic" IMO

                            But to each his own.....Im just offering an alternative to ZONE w/ foul balls that I personally have altered to make it a challenge
