Re: Holy Grail Sliders - 2K8 edition

I have tried 3 other sets of sliders and so far these have been the most entertaining and balanced sliders I have came across. I am not the most skilled diehard player, and these sliders worked perfect for me. Before I was losing most games giving up anywhere from 3 to 6 runs and only scoring 1 run if I was lucky. Couldn't hit for nothing. Played three games with your first set of sliders and it was like playing 2k8 for the first time. I play with Swing Stick 2.0 and use precision pitching and it played just fine. I play with the Reds, in 2 games against Philly I won 6-5 with in the 9th with both teams having 10 hits a piece and I had 1 error in the outfield which I hadn't even seen yet. In the second game I trailed most the game 3-1 until I had a 4 run bot. of the 8th to win 5-3. The Phils had 5 hits with a solo Howard blast and a 2-run Utley blast. I had 12 hits, kept leaving runners on until the 8th were a walk, a pair of doubles and a 2 run Phillips homer finally cashed in. Finished them off with a Cordero save, the first save opp. I have had on 2k8. The third game against the Brew Crew was a back and forth slugfest, pulled off a 9-7 victory with the Brewers having 13 hits o errors and my Reds having 15 hits and 2 infield errors. Love the variety of hits and types of plays that unfold on these sliders, shots in the gaps and down the lines, players diving and having balls kicking of their gloves, and the CPU pitching is much much better. I am now going to tweak the changes you made and can't wait to see how it plays. Good job and THANK YOU I was about to give up on this game.

You're right, either estimate or count the clicks.
