    probably aint what it is.. but it offers a challenge.
    pitchers get tired quicker as the season progresses anyway, atleast for me they did. but i am going to try out what joey t. said and hopefully it fixes it.

      I'm gonna give dynamic difficulty a try, I'm getting tired of the feeling that I'm playing the same game over and over again, hopefully it will get me some variety.

        I'm going to commit murder and try this in Game 3 of my ALCS series against the Red Sox.

        My Yanks are tied 1-1 with them so this could very well be a series changing effect.

          I haven't noticed the pitcher fatigue, Carpenter has gone 7+ in his last 3 starts.

          Is everyone inputting their custom sliders and then clicking dynamic difficulty on?

          I started with Heelfan's sliders and then turned the DD on. I am having a tough time hitting HR's, but it's no big deal to me.

            you will start to notice probably after 15 games or so, not right away

              so let me get this straight....

              if you turn DD on the sliders will adjust to your play style so the results become realistic....

                Re: A Whole New Game - WOW!

                Not so much realistic as unpredictable - from game to game you'll have no idea if you'll be able to hit, if the CPU will be able to hit, if you're gonna have 3 errors, if the CPU is gonna strike out 15 times or not at all, so on.

                With only about a month left to play this thing anyway (football), I've given up on a lot things, including realistic pitch counts, realistic walks, throw speeds, OF speed, pitch speed, etc. I'm just letting DD do its thing and seeing what happens in terms of a fun experience. And the point is, so far so good.

                By the way, my update: Following the 12-4 debacle against the Phils, I shutout the Capitals 2-0. Even though the game played rather easy (18 K's for my staff), it's still pretty neat to think that I got shelled by a good team and then pretty much owned a bad one in consecutive games.

                Was away for the weekend, so didn't play. But I'll probably play a good 10 or 15 more games by the end of the week. I'll have a pretty good idea by then if this is as bitchin as I think it might be.

                  That's what I did, but I don't know that it matters. My first couple games had really wild changes, like pitch speed down to 70, and OF speed WAY up. My guys were FLYING around the field. By game 3, that was gone. Pitch speed was, as far as I can tell, at 100, and my OFers are back to about where I had them (somewhere around default). So, that's why I say I don't think it really matters at all.

                      BTW: Three-game set @ Atlanta -

                      DET 11 17 3
                      ATL 3 6 0

                      DET 3 10 2
                      ATL 5 7 1

                      DET 6 11 1
                      ATL 11 12 0

                      Still truckin' along in 'so far so good' mode. Four-game set at home against TEX (39-36) up next.

                          Right on the first page of sliders, 'General User Options', on the top, right next to Hot/Cold Teams.

                            If a mod can change the name of this thread to 'Dynamic Difficulty Experiment', I'd appreciate it.

                                Really Enjoying the game since I have started using this option. Games don't feel like repetative 2-0 wins for me. I'll post my scores later tonight, but I have played 10 games or so with this option and am loving it. Thanks Undefeated
