Fielder Speed Should Be At 50 Or Higher

Re: Fielder Speed Should Be At 50 Or Higher

There's no "one size fits all" approach on this. Something that must also be accounted for is the other sliders. I have my personal sliders set where CPU batting power is at 90. They hit the ball HARD, and I have to speed up my outfielders to compensate for this.

When I lowered the cpu batting power I NEVER felt threatened by the cpu offensively.

My point is this: this thread brings up a number of great thoughts, but other sliders bring other variables into play. The higher the power, the more balls are hit down the line and in the gaps. If you slow your outfielders down it will be a doubles and triples parade all game...not real and no fun.

Also, I have my personal fielding sliders set where fielding is a challenge. Errors are a part of baseball, and when I set those at around 25 (throwing accuracy) and 75 (fielding) it was still WAY too easy. So I can't easily pre-load a throw because I have made actually catching and fielding the ball more difficult.

Again, another variable that comes into play when creating sliders...

Spot on MK. When you change one slider you almost always have to change another. The best for me is INF/OF Speed at 40, INF/OF Throw Speed 60, and CPU Power 70 or 75.
