      Do you have any stats to back up these claims? :wink:

      I would love to use these if it means the CPU batting aggression is lowered immensely, but I have a decent set now giving me some varied games batting. But, my pitching stats are suffering because I either get batted around or pitch shutouts into the later innings, nothing in between.

      If you get a few games posted on here, I'll be happy to test these sliders out and suggest tweaks and such.

        I don't write down stats, I just go with what plays well. If someone could tell me where the opposing pitch count can be located, I can put up some pitch counts, scores and stats from my future games.

        These are up on 2k share so you can test them pretty easily.

          Alright, I'll try these out and post some stats from a few games. I'll try a few games with some good pitchers and some bad pitchers.

          First up, CC Sabathia vs. Boston....be back in a bit

            Not a fan of these, the batters are still jumping on the first pitch even if it is out of the zone. Through 3 innings, Boston is leading 6-0.

            There is a positive with these, the opposing pitchers do walk batters. However, in three different occasions Beckett walked me on 4 straight pitches, which leads me to believe that sometimes walks are scripted...

                Even in real life, if a team is pounding a pitcher, or if they feel a need to come back from a large deficit they will swing a lot on the first pitch. Especially if you always throw a first pitch strike. Someone like CC (an ace) is always around the strike zone.

                In the final of a three game series vs Arizona in my Franchise. I got up on their 5th starter 5-0 in the first inning. My 5th starter, Piniero, held them in check through 3 innings and then they exploded on him starting in the 4th. Once they started teeing off they were very aggressive on the first pitch and it's also what they needed to do to get back in the game.

                It's now 10-6 ARZ in the 8th inning (when I had to save and quit). In my previous two games (W 5-3 and L 4-3), they were more low scoring and the CPU was not as aggressive. In one of those games it was scoreless through 5 innings and the CPU was very patient like waiting for their pitches. I think this game has momentum programming into it, as some teams and players are not aggressive. It's not like before when EVERY player was swinging at everything.

                You need to try a few games with different pitchers (esp. 3rd and 4th starters). Also try teams like Pittsburgh or Texas or Seattle, who have very few power hitters and see if they are as aggressive. Both the SAWKS and YANKS lineups are filled with aggressive swingers.

                  There are no sliders that will fix the problem. Period.

                    Agreed, we have no choice but to hope 2K can release a patch that will fix them properly.
