Does the cpu score without hitting hr's all the time. That has been my only real complaint about the series, most of their runs came off the long ball.

Are you seeing teams steal?

If you read any threads, any previews or played the demo you would know these things have been fixed.

Really. I only have seen the cpu score on hr's and still haven't seen them steal in the demo games I have played.

? Must be a different game then anyone else has played, hit variety has been lauded by Steve here at OS , and no one who has played the demo has said this is an issue anymore.

6 demo games, only 2 HR's, I have seen bloops, check swings, infield singles, line drives, ground ball base hits, broken bat singles, swinging bunts, etc.....

I have had multiple steal attempts with guys on base.

I have seen Upton and Theriot successfully steal on me as I have hopped from game to game.

Very first game I played I had Crawford and Upton double steal.

Crawford, Upton, Bartlett, Rollins, Victorino have all attempted to steal on me when I don't hold them on, or stop paying attention to them

so I don't know how you haven't seen the computer steal once

I remember Big Hurt Baseball, when there was a rain delay, it would show the stadium half full of water

Can you use alternate uniforms when you play online?

Re: Why Do I Do This To Myself: I Have a Copy of MLB 2K9 (Q&A)

There are plans to get an online game going. I've been talking with Bryan "PastaPadre" and if the game is waiting for him when he gets home from work, then we will hopefully play online tonight.

Thanks Chase, I'm sure a lot of us will be waiting to hear about the online experience. Hell, you're on my friends list...set me up with a party invite and let me listen in!

Does the ball change colors to indicate the pitch as it leaves the pitcher's hand?

No, doesn't look like it.

1. if you go into online settings (dont need to setup an actual online game), can you find anywhere to set custom online sliders? I'm hoping VC put these back in this year..

offline:

2. can you turn off the strike zone, ball trail, and pitching cursor?

3. if you choose to use the 3 step pitching mechanic from 2k8, does the pitching interface look different than the giant yellow circle? maybe it looks like last year I'm hoping, anything but that giant yellow mess covering the whole catcher...

4. and the blank screen in between innings in the demo, is this gone in the retail? Im hoping this is replaced by highlight package or something presentation wise..

1. I was assuming the custom slider options would be back in since they are in NBA 2K9, and my assumption was correct. You can go buck wild with the custom sliders like in NBA 2K9.

2. You can turn off ball trail and strike zone window. I did not see one to turn off ball cursor.

3. It doesn't appear to change in a significant way. Also, I tried to get a meatball doing pitching the old way and no dice.

4. If you hit a HR or something it will show that clip between innings, then cut to black for a moment before restoring.

Do the Blue Jays have the baby blues available as home alts?

Only one question! Thanks

The Alt 2s are the old-school baby blues.

To piggy back this, are all uniforms available for each team or are some of them locked?

It seems like they are all unlocked. If they are locked, then they must now show up until they are unlocked.
