mkharsh33 MLB 2K11 Sliders: Classic Hitting / Total Control Pitching

[mkharsh33]

Thanks, guys! I have video game ADD - I can't seem to stay locked into one game (LOL!). So, no, I have not played any games using the updated slider ideas. (I've gotten into NCAA Football - but roster glitch sucks ... been playing some old school NBA 2K11 as well). I AM keeping the MLB rosters updated, so we'll still be good there.

QUESTION: are you guys finding user hitting too easy and the need to bump the cpu pitch success higher??? I haven't personally had that happen, but wanted to know what you guys were seeing. Appreciate the kind words!

Nope, I wish, actually the cpu seems to get alot of hits on me, even though I try to work zone, though about dropping their contact by 5 to see if it helps.

work the count...patience, patience, patience. play like real baseball, don't go up hacking. make the pitcher pitch a LOT of pitches. wait for him to groove you one...he will. I hit a HR with Altuve the other night... 53 HR power. It can be done.

I personally have found it getting quite easier. However, that may just be me getting better at the game though. Any suggestions?

EDIT: Just realized you already answered my question a couple pages back. Sorry didn't notice. Thanks.

I bumped AI Pitching Success to 70, left HUM contact at 35 but increased HUM Power to 60. Liking the results so far. SD 5-hit me last night, but Berkman still hit a bomb, and got doubles from Freese and Holliday. Got struck out 5 times and drew 3 walks from Stauffer. I grounded out a bit, which I'm good with. I like the Success at 70 so far.

Hey harsh, I made the follwoing changes for a month of my franchise and I was very well surprised by what I got. Two simple AI changes:

AI pitch success - 75
AI pitch break influence - 100

Really makes a hitter out of you especially if your a fan of the pitcher/batter battles. Now if only check swing worked

The ball's not acting like a wiffle ball, is it? That would be my only apprehension about trying that out, too much unrealistic movement. 12-6 curves are already beeyotches to hit.
