    Re: Pared's MVP 2005 Gameplay Sliders

    After about 10 games or so with these sliders I have some more notes:

    - The best way to play is definitely with the ball cursor off. After changing this I went from 0 walks a game to 2-5 every game.

    - Patience is key with hitting. At first I thought the user hitting was a little underpowered but if you connect on a pitch you are waiting for, you will hit the ball hard. My approach to hitting is to look for a fastball in a specefic spot until I have 2 strikes. The cpu throws a lot of their breaking pitches for balls so you really get deep into counts by doing this. Once you get 2 strikes you then have to protect more and try to foul stuff off until you get a hittable pitch. Last game I walked 7 times using this approach.

    - The combination of sliders and changing how I play has given my perfect results. In my last game both pitchers had pitch counts over 90 by the 6th inning.

      Pared,
      Your sliders are great once again my friend. I just have to work on my pitching, I am giving up about 3 or 4 HRS a game exhibition for now. Playing with the Braves. ATL in da house. I was playing the ChiSox and OF Podsenik stole third on me on the first pitch. Thanks for your hard work..

          Just thought I would post some stats from using these sliders:

          White Sox vs. Twins (Me) at the Metrodome

          Santana: 7.1, 7 H, 2R, 2ER, 2BB, 8 K, 1 HR (103 Pitches)
          Buehrle: 7 IP, 8 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 1 BB, 3 K (102 Pitches

          My bullpen had 2 more K's and 1 more BB

          There let up 2 more runs, 1 ER...

          I won 7-2...but was close until the 8th really.

          (Really good results, they stole on me twice...and just everything worked out well.)

                  Might have solved the CPU and User issues, these feel real good.

                  CPU Power -2
                  User Power +2

                  Lemme know what you think.

                      Might have to try these. The AI is crushing a lot of homeruns against me while I continue struggle to put good wood on the ball. I also lowered the CPU contact from 18 to 15.

                          I can't hit forthe life of me with these sliders. Any suggestions?

                              Try this suggestion from my earlier post:

                              - Patience is key with hitting. At first I thought the user hitting was a little underpowered but if you connect on a pitch you are waiting for, you will hit the ball hard. My approach to hitting is to look for a fastball in a specific spot until I have 2 strikes. The cpu throws a lot of their breaking pitches for balls so you really get deep into counts by doing this. Once you get 2 strikes you then have to protect more and try to foul stuff off until you get a hittable pitch. Last game I walked 7 times using this approach.
