baserunning problem/question!

[globalbeats7]

i have one problem when i try to advance my guys. if i have runners on and i get a base hit i cant seem to advance my runners quick enough. i try pressing the left trigger (xbox) and holding it cuz the book says it advances all runners. but the guys stop at the base rather than rounding and keep going. i try using the left thumbstick and x but sometimes i guess i press it at the wrong time or soemthing cuz again they stop right after the base. the ball would be at the wall still and they do that. is there a method to baserunning that i am not aware of? can someone help me out? thanks!

Re: baserunning problem/question!

you can try just hammering on the left trigger. Just rapid fire as runners appriach the bases, or

my best suggestion is start using the X button with the directional stick. It's much better, and you have much more control.

I'm really good at it. Maybe because I loved MVP2003, and I have MVP2004 as well as ESPN, and I'm used to controlling all the runners independantly. But, I have the best luck like that. X alone is advance all to I believe. Just try hammering on that too.

Re: baserunning problem/question!

I have the same issue. I believe you have to wait until the runner reaches first base then you can push up and x to send him to second base. I have lost a couple of games because I was "preloading" the base advance. I like the way MVP has handled baserunning. Espn should try letting you preload or queue the advance.

Do you have auto round on? That works best for me. I still have occasions where they don't go, but 9 times out of ten they do.

I didn't know you could use the X-button to run the bases, thank god I hate the left trigger.

Re: baserunning problem/question!

i have auto baserunning on. thats a nice help to have. however, my troubles are when i have a couple guys on and i get a double in the gap. using the X-directional when two guys are at their respectable base doesnt work cuz i end up only sending one guy to the next base. and once i get the other guy to move he has already stopped right pass the base. instead of both guys scoring i end up with a man on second (batter who hit the double) and third (the f*ckface who should have kept running). other than this, i f*ckin love this game. i always hated baseball games cuz the seasons are too long to play out and the games get repitative after a while. but with this one, i puff on an el a little bit and play ball. something new every single game. beautiful. someone help me out with the baserunning PLEASE!

thanks
