    Re: ChaseB's MLB 2K10 Thread

    Pretty disappointing to hear that the minor league names aren't very close to the real life counter parts. In previous years, we could at least get the first letter of the first and last name right. Looks like it's gonna be a tough year to get accurate rosters...

      Thanks a lot for your reply! I'm assuming that's excluding curve and 12-6 curve since we already mentioned them, thanks!

        Seen any injuries yet? I'm surprised Santana wasn't injured after taking one off the head.

          That's good to hear. I forgot that 2k didn't have a secondary position, but instead had ratings for each position.

I will bump it up to All-Star next game.
            ... snippet
            ChaseB,
            Just three (3) general things. Answer these in a general sense. Being overly detailed would be too time consuming. But certainly be my guest if you want to be extra detailed oriented. (Side Note: Did you use "classic hitting" or "total control hitting"?)

            (1) All-Star vs. Hall of Fame/Legend Stastistics
            In addition to "All-Star"level difficulty, it would be greatly appreciative if you could also boost it up to the next (final?) level of difficulty (Hall-of-Fame/Legend?) and report back with barebones general statistics or simply the overall experience.

            (2) Pitcher vs. Batter duel on All-Star vs. Hall-of-Fame

            -No need really for specific numbers (that would be too time consuming). But what's the sense of CPU batters simply taking balls and strikes without swinging.
            -CPU's tendency to take strikes
            -CPU's tendency to take balls
            -CPU's tendency to swing at balls outside the strike zone.
            -CPU's batter tendency on a 3-0 count; 3-1 count. 0-2 count (general sense).
            -CPU's tendency to hit foul balls (i.e. defensive swings when they are down in the count).
            -Bottom line: Just a general sense of how the CPU's batter reacts at the plate on higher difficulty settings.

            (3) Homeruns (Contact vs. Power Swing) at All-Star/Hall-of-Fame/Legend Mode)
            Additional thoughts on the number of homerun balls at higher difficulty levels. General sense would work well (high, medium, low, etc.) Be detailed if you want though.
            -Approximate No. ____ of homeruns with contact swing
            -Approximate No. ____ of homeruns with power swing.
            -Bottom line: Is it much, much more difficult to hit homeruns at higher settings with power swing/contact swing? Asking because it was a little too easy on PRO mode (demo) using the power swing. From my understanding, PRO mode is considered easy for beginners in 2k's eyes.

            Much appreciative. Thanks.

            SIDE NOTE:
            From reading a users post on 2k's forum. Apparently using "Classic Hitting" vs "Total Control Hitting" makes a difference. With "Classic Hitting," there are more variations in ball placement on the field. More "doubles'' as well were noted in the demo using "Classic Hitting." Apparently, actually "timing" your swing is important in classic hitting. This is based from a user's experience. This is interesting.

              Considering what EA is going through with their NCAA game, i dont blame 2K, thats money they would have to spend on lawyers thats not needed.

                How easy is it to bring up the opposing team's line-up in order to view the L/R match-ups? Can you view the opponent's available bench and bullpen, also?

                  Agreed, but at least the create-a-player option seems a lot better this year, so I'll probably create a lot of the top prospects.

                    Sad, but very true.

                              I wonder if there is a "no perfect game glitch" $1,000,000 is a lot of coin my friends.
                              Gaming hard since 1988

                              I have won like 25 Super Bowls in Madden so I am kinda a big deal.

                                Happy to see the Legends are in!

                                My question is will we be able to play with them in Franchise?

                                thank you.
