Re: TNK MLB 2018 SLIDERS

Yeah,

In my experience, for example,Team Batting-average is about 0.05 differential between HOF and Allstar.
Lets say if your team batting average around .300 in Allstar, it will go down around .250 in HOF.
My team batting average was around .310 with all-star, so that is why i chose HOF with this slider.
Home-run numbers are always fair, too, in my experience(Since I'm Jays fan, so always among top lol).

For pitching, number seems good except the strike-out ratio.
It will go down fairly alot in HOF compared to Allstar.
So, it is kinda hard to get stirke-out.
Otherwise, number seemed good to me.

All sliders are same with TNK ones, but I like the challenge, so I always go for HOF Pitching/Batting.

I always play all 162 games, and TNK slider is always the one I chose.
Bare in mind that everyone has different experience.

Anyway, always appreciated with your work, TNK.

Thanks.

Do you use directional or zone hitting and meter pitching?

The show 16 I used zone, and 17 I used directional.
I followed TNK.

For pitching, I use meter.

Always like your sliders. Been getting pretty good results. Right now I have been playing all star hitting and hall of fame pitching. I did lower user human power to 4, at 5 I was hitting home runs to easily. At 4 I have seen more doubles and balls off the walls.

TNK - TESTING
Exhibition Game

Boston Red Sox (ME) @ New York Mets (CPU)
Pitching Matchup - Rick Porcello vs Jacob deGrom

This game was played on HOF Difficulty for Hitting & Pitching

The Red Sox took a 1-0 lead on a solo HR by JD Martinez in the 1st inning and the score remained 1-0 until the top of the 6th when Martinez mashed his 2nd HR of the game off deGrom to LF to give Boston a 2-0 lead. Rick Porcello was terrific as he took a no-hit the Mets through 5 innings before giving up a RBI double to Cespedes after Nimmo walked with 2 outs in the bottom of the 6th to make it a 2-1 game. Joe Kelly came on in relief of Porcello with two men on and 2 outs in the bottom of the 7th and Kelly would strike out Rosario to end the threat and keep it a 2-1 game. The game would go to the bottom of the 9th with Boston leading 2-1 and Craig Kimbrel would come on to slam the door with a 1-2-3 inning to record the save as the Red Sox win 2-1

* I really like HOF difficulty and felt like I had to be sharper than on All-Star and focus more both at the plate and on the mound. I'm sticking with HOF for more games

* 7 total walks in the game (this is excellent!!!)

Yes, you have to be more patient at the plate, more careful when you pitch.
Sometimes you will get frustrated, but more realistic.
You need to earn wins with HOF pitching/batting.

Your slider works really well in HOF, so I will use it with this year's version as well.
All in all, great challenge and more fun.

Re: TNK MLB 2018 SLIDERS

Yeah.....I can definitely see myself sticking with HOF going forward

Play some test games and post results for me!!! I'm pretty happy with the way these are playing right now. I think it's just fine tuning at this point and we'll have them "franchise ready" as soon as the OSFM rosters come out

Is meter pitching a requirement? If not, what can I use instead?
