Looking for Advice

I have been playing around with sliders in Franchise, but keep experiencing a hard time, where pitching is too easy but my hitting is atrocious. I have never had issues with hitting, I can't hit for any power (18 HR's in the 29 games), I pop-up way too much, even when it looks like I lake good contact. And I barely average 2 runs a game. Any suggestions how too balance out my pitching and my offense? The sliders are not seeming to make much difference...

Re: Looking for Advice

Dynamic Difficulty for pitching & batting , also set that Dynamic slider @ 10
play about 30 Play Now games before returning to Franchise
unless you're already playing on dynamic difficulty
that's the single biggest thing I do to keep from being overdominate (or completely dominated)
I find it captures the ebb & flow of a 162 game grind very nicely. lotsa hot streaks, with slumps mixed in as well

after another 30 games played in Franchise (and the 30 Play Now games) I'd set the Dynamic Slider back to default 5

after another 30 games in franchise with dynamic sliders at default 5, I then set it at its final resting place at 1

Well in that case I’d simply lower the difficulty. Sometimes you gotta leave the ego at the door!

Re: Looking for Advice

I completely gave up on sliders this year. I gave dynamic difficulty a try and ill most likely wont be going back. For someone who has played this game every year it has been available and for a setting that's six years old , I cant believe it took me this long to figure it out. I look for variety and realism in games won or loss and final scores, which is exactly what dynamic difficulty has done for me. Give it a try. I doubt ill ever have to worry about sliders or what difficulty to play on again.

Re: Looking for Advice

If you're still looking for a slider based solution, based on your symptoms you probably want to raise solid hits.
