Help!!! Contact and Hit and Run Sliders are really annoying me

[Mickeyknoxx]

I'm Really trying hard to get a realistuc pitch count. Try a bunch set of sliders, but need to know if happens the same tou guys.

Correct if i'm wrong.... The contact swing is about the chance of the batter hit the ball. Higher the slider, better chance to hit. OK ?

The Hit and Run Slider is about the chance of the batter try to swing. Higher the slider, more chance to the player swing.

I try out a lot of combinations. Contact 50 and hit and run 50. A lot of Strikes and a lot of balls being cached by the fielders easily and a few foul balls. Contact 70 Hit and Run 50. They hit a lot 1b and 2b do HR, the contact increased seems to influence the hit and run... the higher they made more swings. Contact 50 Hit and Run 70-80. Works very similar to Contact 70 and Hit and Run 50. So Am i correct to say that the higher the contact.. this will influence the hit and run too ? I just can't find a good set of sliders to realistic pitch counts, foul balls and hit... I also tried other sets like contact 60 hit and run 60 and on and on...

Can somebody help with some good set that works nice the count and get realistic foul balls, strikes and hits ? ? I play the PC version With Xbox 360 controller Total Control Swing.... Thanks for the help.

Sorry for bad english....

Re: Help!!! Contact and Hit and Run Sliders are really annoying me

You are incorrect about the Hit and Run slider. That is a slider that affects how often the CPU will put on a Hit and Run play, where he attempts to steal second, while the batter attempts to hit the ball through the hole left by whichever fielder covers second.

So Hit and Run will have no effect on how often the batter will swing. If you want the pitch count to go up, you need to throw more balls. Force the CPU to take pitches and swing at bad ones.

After not liking the option, I've changed my mind about Catcher Suggestion. I have it on and it forces me to walk more hitters, and my pitch count increases. I really enjoy the challenge of trying to throw it where my catcher tells me. This also brings into play catcher's ratings (how good they are).

Re: Help!!! Contact and Hit and Run Sliders are really annoying me

Oh Man, thanks a lot.. U save my day... I'm new to baseball...I'm from Brazil...I just got the game last month to see if i liked.. Never have watched before.. So i don't know all about...And Must say... How much time I lost...Actually I remeber watching some flashs in the time where McGuire and Sosa Beat the HR record... But Anyway... Baseball is really exciting and amazing..

But bout the sliders.... Still have some doubts bout the gameplay itselfs I'm sorry if this is going to be long but realy aprreciate with the help......

First.. There is no Slider that affects how often the batter will swing ?..

The batter swings works along the quality and direction of my pitch and the the inside edge scout in the count for each player I mean 0-2 more aggressive, 2-0 less ? ?
The Contact sliders affects just that will happen more contact with the ball or affects also the quality of the contact ? i mean 50 to 55 means more hits than strikes with the same type of ball pitched ?

The Hit and Run play happens with the guy in the 1st going to 2nd and then the batter try to beat on the right in the open hole.. I got it. How can i plan to this on my team ? advance the guy in the 1st a little when the pitch comes release the holding button (LT) and try to hit ?

Some how this affects the batter trying to hit the ball more often ok ? Higher the slider more swings the batter will try with the guy in the 1st ok?

The defense to this is to put the 1st baseman more to the middle then protecting the 1st base in the line, I mean, changing the infield defense position ??

The difference between Hit and Run and steal, the first the batter try to hit. the steal, the guy just run to the 2nd with no swing by the batter ?

The base running agression sliders means when a hit is made how hard the guy will try to get more bases, so more risk to be caught trying to go to 2nd or 3rd and the outfielders or shortstop throwing the ball to the base he's trying to get, ok ??

The defensive swing u have to be on the timing to get the foul ball, other wise u don't hit and other times made a ground out, and other times some good hit that gets a base ?

About the game play is there some specific type of balls to avoid ? I mean the breaking balls are a bitch I almost always swing early, But when a hit get godd bases. I Know the best ball to hit it's the center speed ball.

Does have some kind of act and react thing that affects the place and type of ball throwed ? I mean slider high left corner (act) most times will ground out (react). Curve ball low center (act) will be foul (react). I mean when the count it's 0-2 or other against me what balls i have to avoid ?

I'm done... really appreciatte with the help.. I know this is a comlex game, not predictable at all... just trying to know better to have more fun playing.

Thanks a lot..
