    hey WSB, look at a couple of my posts, i show all my pitch counts and K's, etc. lowering the BE(S) to 55, i have not gotten over 5 K's with my starter as of yet, and I'm playing with the Yanks. Latest Box score: NYY 8 12 0 ANA 1 6 0. i had 121 pitches total, 9 K's 2 BB between 3 pitchers. for them, 120 pitches total, 6 K's 4 BB.

    i like it i like it, but I'm going to lower the CPU BE(S) a little at a time. Are there any cons you see with these settings? Im just looking for objective opinions about them since you'll know them best.

        stilts I noticed you and the CPU play with HVP. Do you find the CPU grooving a lot of pitches? That's the problem with HVP. I'm wondering if you're hitting game is too easy right now. Also, I don't want to look through all this, but can you tell me if you're using very small or small batting cursor.

        thanks

            Re: I think I got it. New and improved sliders!!!

            WSB...Does your last post mean that when I set my pitching variable to high, it also effects the CPU Pitching?

            It kind of makes sense to me if it does because I've noticed what you suggested. When I set my variable to HVP I also noticed an improvement with my hitting.

            That being said, I LOVE HVP...To me, it makes pitching a lot more exciting and realistic. With MVP, I was simply pinpointing everything.

            To combat my improved hitting, I will reduce my batting cursor to very small and try it out...

            These are my sliders from the last game for pitching..

            CPU BA 45
            BE (B) 75
            BE (S) 60

            HVP, no cursors, no vib, etc...

            ANA (CPU) 5 12 0
            TOR 6 10 0

            A very realistic game IMO...Tanyon Sturtze was on the mound for me, so I wouldn't expect a gem. I threw 117 total pitches and struck out 3. Very realistc again...

            I will keep trying these sliders out and keep you updated.

                idon't know if it effects the cpu pitching as well. i know that you can check by looking at it during the game.

                off the bat, i think it does as your improved hitting suggested that to me. btw, does your hit totals per game seem pretty high? are you hitting this much every game so far?

                    My hit totals are high right now because I'm still using Medium speed.

                    That last game was actually my first game with the small cursor.

                    Overall, I'm hitting about .300 as a team, which is high but still right around the top teams in the league (within 1 or 2 points of a few other teams).

                    Now that I see this trend happening, I am going to reduce the cursor to very small and see if I need to increase the speed to fast.

                    So really, I'm not worried about the hitting stats because I know I can make it harder and the slider dynamics don't seem as complex as the pitching ones.

                    By the way, I'm using CPU Pitching at 100 and TS at 1

                        WSBFanatic-- I don't think the computer grooves too many pitches with HVP, depending on who im facing. When i face good pitchers, they paint the corners, and every once in a while will groove one, but not often. (I use a small cursor and very fast pitching, btw) but against bad pitchers, its a lot easier. The one variable in all this is that i use the Yankees. 1-9, they have great hitters down the line. So i end up with a good amount of runs and hits most of the time. I just played another really great game against the angels tho, ended up 6-3 in my favor, i had 13 hits they had 9. I would try MVP, but i definitely want my pitching at HVP, and i dont feel like remembering to switch it each half inning... but maybe ill try it at some point to see the results. I'm now 16-6!

                                Just played my second game with CPU BA 45, BB 75, BE 60...

                                Got destroyed with my ace on the mound...We're talking like 23 hits here..

                                Seems like the CPU takes a couple of games to adjust to new sliders or something...

                                Anyways, stilts, I'm trying 40, 75, 55 again with HVP...I'll let you know how it goes.
