Pared's MVP 2005 Gameplay Sliders

[rmbirney]

just played a game padres vs reds, the reds hit a walkoff shot on me off hoffman.

the line was R H E
SD 0 0 0 2 0 1 0 0 0 3 9 0
CIN0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 3 4 9 0

pitching IP H R ER BB SO HR pitches stamina
SD(me)
peavy 7.2 6 1 1 5 5 0 106 11%
otsuka 0.1 0 0 0 0 0 0 ? ?
hoffman 0.1 3 3 3 0 1 1 ? ?

CIN(cpu)
milton 7.0 9 3 3 1 8 0 ? ?
mercker 2.0 0 0 0 1 3 0 ? ?

it was a good game overall, pitching w/o vibration and strike zone on the behind the pitcher cam is difficult, hence the walks by peavy.

i'm a little confused, when on click on the link in your sig it has user/cpu contact at 14 and power at 7. did you release a more updated version since the one in your quote?

No, that is for people who can not hit as well or wants more offense. ALL 0's are more realistic and challenging!

Pared....

What batting cam are you using to hit?

I have a feeling I will be back to testing the sliders tomorrow. There are just way too many bugs and freezing in MLB 2006. Sucks though, b/c it was/is a great game and I was enjoying it... when it wasn't freezing. Anyway, I think I'm back with MVP again.

Barring the freezing what do you think is the better game overall?

I haven't had many freezes in MLB but some of the bugs are putting me off a little.

I'd have to say MVP is the winner this year.

I think realistic would be -50 I tried the default settings and though the game played great out the box I started to hit to many homeruns so I dropped everything to -50, tamed everything for me . But what may work for me may not work for others.

I think some of the sliders may even contol different things for example when I had foul ball frequency at 0 I had lots of hits and foul balls but not a lot of k's but when I raised the foul ball freq I got more strikeouts.

I'm not using pared's sliders just so people don't get confused.

I'm having a hard time to stop giving up hits to my opponent. I gave up 18 hits to the Brewers but I scored 3 runs in the 9th in a losing effort. 6-4 was the final. I gave up a total of 31 hits in 2 games.

I'm using Pared's sliders with some tweaks:

Pitch Speed: -5
CPU Pitcher Ball Rate: 4
CPU Pitch Control: -16
User Batting Contact: 20
CPU Batting Contact: 20
User Batting Power: 0
CPU Batting Power: -1
CPU Swing Frequency: -25
CPU Steal Rate: 20

What are some suggestions that I could do to stop giving up so many hits? Is it necessary to change, perhaps the batting power for the CPU? Or leave it as it is?
