My MLB 2K5 Sliders

[Sportsforever]

Just thought I would post my sliders in case anyone wanted to try them. I started with Radja's and Joe's and tweaked them till I was happy with them. Using these and the method of pitching I mentioned in the K-Zone solution post I am really getting some good games. I only use the contact button when swinging. I also have my XBox set to widescreen. Enjoy.

I am going to try these out and see how they work.

Re: My MLB 2K5 Sliders

I will give these a try too. I will let you know how they work for me. Should be very good though.

Re: My MLB 2K5 Sliders

I lowered the error rating for both human and cpu to 51 instead of 52. I was seeing just a tad to many errors. I didn't see enough errors from the CPU when that slider was less than 50 though. These sliders have really been fun so far because with CPU contact at 100 and power down low they score a lot of runs by stringing hits together. I am a week into my season with these and so far I have had scores of 8-6 (W), 5-2(L), 5-2(L), 9-3(W), and 10-6(L). I have only given up 4 HR's and have hit 3 myself. I am looking at maybe lowering the fielder speed down even more and turning on the fielder speed boost. The reason being that you never really have time to use that on the IF anyway and so it will help the OF get to just a few more balls. The only problem is in my testing I don't think the CPU uses the fielding boost. Anyway, let me know what you think of 'em.

Given OF’s can dive twenty feet horizontally while traveling @ 75 mph (and never drop ANY of those super-spectacular snags) I personally don’t feel any additional speed cheats are really necessary
