Spring Training game on 21

R H E
Mets 3 9 0
Giants 4 7 1

Giants take lead 4-1 after 3 run blast from Lamont Wade in the 4th.
I chip away at the lead to make it 4-3. McCann strikes out in the 9th with the tying run on 2nd to end the game.

I pulled two wild cards: Ace of Spades +1 CPU contact Ace of Hearts +1 CPU power.

The wild cards definitely influenced the game. Wades blast just snuck over the right center field wall which was at 370.


Incredible game play even on 21. I cant wait until Tuesday until to play 22. It is already downloaded on my console I just cant play it yet.

Those numbers look great. You did pretty good holding them with those raised numbers.

You seeing a lot of singles? That is what we are trying to hone in on.

Out of my 9 hits 1 was a HR, 3 were doubles and the remaining 5 were singles.

I am seeing a lot of well hit line drives from me and the CPU also.

Yeah we are seeing that as well. We are considering lowering power to 3 to help but we don’t want to nerf the offense too much or give them less homeruns. Just need some of those doubles into singles.

A handful didn't like 21, but many of us loved the gameplay. Our final slider set last season gave me the best variety of games I've ever had for MLBTS since I started playing in 2012. These are not near finalized for 2022 but certain slider settings are carrying over smoothly from 21 which makes things easier.

You're going to be blown away by the gameplay Tuesday if you're enjoying 2021.

For me its the outfield/infield throwing adjustments combined with the baserunning speed lowered that bring the gameplay in line. No more CPU flying around the bases on regular hit balls to the OF. The games are fluid and keep you guessing everytime the ball is put into play. A lot of well hit balls for outs which is how it should be.

My anticipation for 22 is building.

Yes you are 100% correct about the baserunning. Our settings look crazy but they work perfectly and create extremely realistic baserunning and goes a long way influencing hit variety. Singles are singles and doubles are doubles. Not thrown out by a mile at 2nd or 3rd. It created more jams to have to pitch out of with runners on base. Way more of an immersive feeling withing the game.

Once we figure out how to create more singles for 2022 we will be right back to that again as we were last year. Creating more singles is probably the hardest thing to do with sliders. But once you get those at the 60-65% mark of all hits then everything else kind of pieces together easily.

Big patch came out today. Nice to see them fix stuff so soon. And we get some more uniforms too!

SDS fixed a lot of stuff and even before release. Then you get the people in Gen Pop complaining that they shouldn’t have to fix all that stuff. They complain they don’t fix it and complain when they do.

Just wanted to let everyone know that our thread will be a safe place as well. Just like Armor’s thread.
