Re: WSB is So Real And Fun

my speed guys rarely get thrown out, but they do by the big guns like ivan the terrible. my slower guys get gunned regularly. especially since i moved up to very fast pitch and they throw something like a fastball/cutter.

Re: WSB is So Real And Fun

the game feels more and more right the longer you play too. i have pretty much pushed the sliders to their limits and the game is even more addicting than it was before.

the next few years, the baseball console competition will be fierce. the best experiences will be asb and wsb. the most poplular will be mvp becuase graphics and brand familiarity are more important to casual gamers than gameplay.

I lowered all my players speed rating by 25% and basestealing is dead on now for me plus it slowed them down in the outfield so balls hit over their heads and in the gaps are harder to get to. WSB is a great game.

Radja, except for the fact that MVP has the best hitting and pitching systems out of all the games. If World Series Baseball 2k4 doesn't fix its animations and pitching model, along with the horrid lighting, I don't see how it'll out do MVP next year.

Re: WSB is So Real And Fun

i played all three games in depth. with MVP, i enjoyed the pitching meter a lot, i had a problem with a lot of issues that made feel like you were always compensating for the AI.
secondly, the franchise was very weak in comparison to the other two games.
i truly feel MVP can become a great game, but even the items you brought up --- quote ( "its animations and pitching model, along with the horrid lighting") --- are more graphical than gameplay.
WSB needs to address some AI issues regarding the gameplay of real life baseball. ASB has the best overall AI. i know many say MVP is in its first year, well so is WSB for ps2. that being given, the other two games have put some serious AI distance between them and MVP already.

i wanted to like MVP because it was a graphically pleasing game. the pitching meter is very innovative. there may be a time it is the best. i just don't see it next year.

Re: WSB is So Real And Fun

Just curious why you think ASB AI is better than WSB? Do you see the AI play the righty lefty percentages? I also love ASB, but can't seem to get groundballs using classic cursor. Zone yields too many hits to center. Normal makes me feel like I'm compensating for the game's shortcomings. Trying real hard to love the game, but gameplay issues (baserunners not advancing, AI pickoff catcher throws never get my runner out unless I let the AI tag me, pinpoint pitching control, HRs on broken bats, etc.) make it hard. I'm not a big franchise fan. Only gameplay.
