    Re: Jistics 2005 MVP All-Star Sliders

    It is funny that you said power does add to the distances, because I lowered mine like I said above and hit 2 hr's over 430'+ ? No 487' bombs mind you but still huge homers.

        is anyone getting good power numbers?

        or how about extra innings? a lot? or not much?

            Power numbers are fine, just wish I could get my average more consitently.

              I played a crazy 15 inning game as the Dodgers vs the Padres. It was amazing, like the real thing. I believe I tied it in the 9th to send it to extra innings. Then in the 11th I scored twice in the top of the inning, but he came back in the bottom and matched me. Then we had scoreless ball until the 15th when Burroughs hit a game ending home run. It was intense and the most fun I've had with a game for a looong time.

              I'm really enjoying your sliders jistic. I felt I was cracking a few too many homers so I've turned that down, but great job. Just a note for anyone looking for sliders...find something that works for you. I played with Heelfan's pro-sliders for a good 50 games before I tried jistics. I had tried them way early on, but it was just too hard. Now that I've gotten better they give me a great challenge.

              The most important thing to remember is dont' judge anything off one game. I'd say look at your last 10-15 games....if you lost them all, it's probably too hard, and if you won them all, it's probably too easy. Obviously we all want to win sometimes...but have to find that perfect balance where we can win but it feels like an accomplishment when you do!

                Re: Jistics 2005 MVP All-Star Sliders

                ok, first GREAT SET of sliders jistic!
                so I have played 6 games in my dynasty with the updated set.
                Anyway I just tried moving up to All Star, I love the sliders but I'm just not quite up to an All Star set yet.
                BUT
                I wanna keep on rolling. So I wondered if there's something I can adjust to either cut back on CPU runs (Maybe adjust my Pitch Meter, and Pitch Control?)
                Or, adjust my batting/CPU pitching to get myself more runs.

                The problem is in 6 games I've been shutout 3 times to the tunes of 7-0, 6-0, 6-0. The others were 9-4, 6-2, 5-2.

                Just wondered if someone who knew more about sliders could advise me. Thanks and good set of sliders jistic

                  I see the same issues. And I do have one more revision coming very soon. I was hoping to post today but it may be a day or two. Human hitting is addressed along with human/cpu fieling and baserunning speed. Stay tuned.

                    Re: Jistics 2005 MVP All-Star Sliders

                    Ok this is a pretty major change from my last set. Took a while to test out. The MAJOR things involved in this is hitting, baserunning, and fielding. I've tuned the speeds. Ever see those games on Sportscenter that happen every night where a team scores 10+ runs on like 15 hits? I never seemed to get those at all. Now I do. Not every game mind you, this isn't Slugfest, but the pitching...actualy the defense was too fast. Also I've lowered the pitch speed which allows the Human player to be more patient...and be rewarded for it. Great pitchers will stil be great, however you should now be able to have games where you put up some major offensive numbers...the CPU should too. Not every game should be filled with web gems, just here and there. This just take a lot of the frustration out from playing on All-Star, at least I hope so any way.

                      I'm going to try these later tonight, with one personal change. I like the pitching meter -50 since pitching is too easy for me. Good job Jistic for your hard work.

                        Just tried my first game with the new sliders. Dodgers VS Diamondbacks.

                        I (dodgers) won 5-3. Line score was...

                        R H E
                        Dodgers 5 14 0
                        Diamondbacks 3 6 0

                        I was Perez going up against Vasquez. Obviously I had a lot of hits and a lot of men left on base. The only thing I think might need tweaking is the pitch speed. But that is very dependent on the person's skill level.

                        On the other changes, I think they are GREAT. The biggest difference I've seen is in double plays and tough hits to the outfield. Double plays feel very nice now, where before they always felt super rushed and awkward. I had a ground ball hit to Izturis, ran over and touched second, and then threw to first...it was beautiful! Quinton McCracken is quick and was safe at first, but it was literally a tie.

                        I've actually seen runners go from first to third on a ball hit to right (which was super rare before). Kent hit a little blooper down the line and was able to reach second sliding. I thought he would catch it for sure, but it felt right out of his reach. Before it was rare to see a double on anything NOT hit in the gap and to the wall.

                        The game feels like it's been slowed down, but in a very good way. Everything before felt just too fast...from fielders, to double plays, to trying to advance runners. I think the fielder speed, runner speed, and throwing speeds should be a VERY good balance now.

                        Time will tell with pitch speed, but I've always felt pitch speed is the best way to tweak the difficulty wihout affecting the balance of everything else. Good work Jistic, look forward to seeing how these are over the long haul.

                          Biggest problem i have had on all star using sliders is not being able to hit home runs at all. What are these new sliders producing in the power department?

                              Jistic,
                              I will try these tonight. For me you last sliders were perfect for batting, but it was too easy to keep the CPU from scoring runs. Hopefully this will be better in that aspect.

                              Thanks for your work on this....the best video game EVER!!!!!

                                jistic, i was wondering if you could post what camera views you are using (fielding and hitting/pitching), i know some people might think that this makes no difference, but i think it does, especially for pitching. behind-the-pitcher camera makes a world of difference when you pitching, so i was wondering which cameras you use...thanks

                                p.s.- what about pick-off returns, do you use automatic or manual, also, what about fielding aid?
