    Re: High Heat Sightings and First Impressions here...

    Ok everybodie, I was playing my franchise with the simulation sliders at 80 to 85 %, and with that settings never saw the bug [2 outs, man at 3rd] but, today I played like 4 games with my brother at defaults settings and guess what, 4 innings, man at 3rd, fly to CF, 3 out, and the run scored, then I tried the situations several times, with defaults settings happens all the time, but if you pop up the simulation sliders, you WONT get the bug, so, in others words, it is not a bug, it is some kind of new feature like arcade or something, so, everyone find the simulation sliders pump up then post the impressions.

        All bugs are "undocumented features." Heh.

        This game is frustrating me right now.

            AHH famous words of software developers - "Its not a bug it's a feature"

            Still haven't seen the infamous bug.

            Skyboxer,

            For me HH has an awesome blend of the baseball players attributes along with the human users input, at least last year, all the other games once you got good at them were way to skewed toward your user skills. With all the different setting in HH, you could play thousands of games and never dominate, that for me is what makes it cool. I loved WSB last year, but at a point against the CPU, they just couldn't score much if at all off of me, that doesn't happen in HH. Your pitchers will get hit, they will have good days and bad days, it's just how it should be.

                    I get you cookusu. Yes WSBB was too easy. Hopefully Fatpitcher is right and the AI will be harder to beat this year.
                    I will rent HH though when available to play it on console and see what's up. I want to see if it offers more than just good stat gameplay. I want visual stuff too like choppers,slow rollers etc...along with good eyecandy
                    WSBB even with it's ease of AI last year still was a fun game. ASBB just did not do it for me last year and this year seems to be the same thing, IMO. I will rent it also though.
                    WSBB and MVP will be bought. Mainly because I like last years WSBB as it was fun and MVP for the new pitcher/batter interface.

                        My simulation slider was set at 7 when it happened.

                                Depends on the pitcher, but it is sort of that way in real life coaches are constantly trying to get guys to throw their fastball more often.

                                I just pushed up the foul frequency slider one notch and I noticed a lot more pop fouls and pitches fouled back, it really helped the game seem more realistic.
