Re: Die hard sliders!!

Pokerlife, where should we start adjusting these sliders from - allstar or pro, or does it even matter

Re: Die hard sliders!!

sorry guys just got home but the answer is pro and its starting from the very left at zero and moving them to the right... So once your done just look in top right and make sure it says custom P once your done

I went ahead and chanced it,and just put in pro difficulty and adjusted from there.It does say custom p by the way.

I then went and played a game.....HOLY SKOBIBOWITZ!!. I had the best game ever with these,everything felt great..and didn't see anything out of the norm.
I was the Dodgers playing the Reds in L.A . It was Penny on the mound for me against Aaron Herrang (however you spell it..lol)

The game started out slow,the Reds struck first with Griffey hitting a double and scoring on a shot down the line.
The Dodgers would answer in the next inning with Jeff Kent smashing a double off the wall in left center,and eventually came in to score.
The score would remain 1-1 till the bottom of the 9th. Juan Pierre (who hadn't done squat the whole game) led off with a triple! I couldn't believe it....then my next batter hit a slow roller to 1st,of course the Reds were playing up...but Pierre beat the throw to the plate for the win.

My wife yelled at me though....lol she was asleep,and as soon as I seen Pierre was safe I yelled a little to loud and scared her...lol oops.
Anyhow....I forgot to check any stats,but I do remember Penny fanned 6 while Herrang had 11 strikeouts
I've got to work on my hitting some more...lol. But I feel confident that when the patch is released,these are the sliders I'll be going with.

Great Job

Re: Die hard sliders!!

Glad you gave them a try cowher!! Sounds like it was an exciting game lol.. I just got done playing 3 games VS the A's in my franchise and i lose all 3 games lol... I struck out 7 to 8 times every dam game Dont know if i was having a bad night or if thats respectable but you said you struck out 11 times as well

So tomorrow im gona raise the human contact from 0 to 25 and see if it makes much difference lol.. Ill report back tomorrow evening with my results

Re: Die hard sliders!!

Yea you really have to be disciplined at bat like I usually take the first pitch. After awhile I just get impatient and start swinging at the first pitch but if you really stay patient you will draw walks and go deep into the count hoping to get a pitch down the middle. You just get a great variety of pitches and speed too. El duque fooled the crap out of me with his delivery, cause he hides the ball in his delivery and its hard to pick up coming out of his hand,anyway these sliders are perfect for me.

Glad you like them bro... Lol same here i start the game off usally pretty patient at the plate taking the first pitch.. Next thing you know im hacking away Ill catch myself during the game and tell myself to quit hacking and stay patient and that usally works ok.. But i have to say it out loud in my head or else im hacking away lol.... Have you found any great batting views to pick the pitch up a little better??? I love the wide view and dont really want to change it just trying to find the perfect zoom..

Re: Die hard sliders!!

Oh bythe way i played a few games with contact set to 25 and i was hitting to many HRs and doubles so im gona stick to keeping it at zero/// I still struck out 7 to 8 times a game with it set to 25 so i think its pretty much just staying patient at the plate

I use wide with 30 zoom and im just used to that right now. If anything id might bump the 30 up a little but i like the wide 30 zoom

Re: Die hard sliders!!

Are these for Classic Batting or Swing Stick ??

[pokerlife]

Re: Die hard sliders!!

swing stick

[Kramer5150]

Re: Die hard sliders!!

As far as the camera goes...I use tight,with the default zoom.
It seems to help me more than the zoom settings.
I end up watching the zoom more than paying attention to the pitcher..lol

Re: Die hard sliders!!

poker ur sliders are good, i am liking them cause i am finally getting a good amount of Ks against the AI when i pitch well. the only thing i am havin trouble wit is the hitting i think i am gonna put the contact to like 10 and see how i do cause in the first two games i havent hit any hrs and have scored only 5 runs wit few hits... i like it but i would like to hit a HR lol... love the challenge though so i wanna try to keep it low.


btw i was wondering how ur games are going wit it at 0. give me some stats if u could!! thanks

I had the same problem but as you get used to it you will start smashing the ball just be patient and try taking the first pitch most times and wait for your pitch. The more you play with these settings you will get better like last game i had 6 hrs. Im gonna bump down the power from 57 to 30 and try that out. My scores through 9 games were W 4-3 ,L 5-4, L 11-1, W 2-1, W 8-1, L 5-3, L 4-1, W 7-1 ,W 12-5. Im also gonna try bumping the ai contact up and see what I get. Pitching now also seems like i can mow down batters which is cool but dont want it too easy,thats why im bumping up ai contact.
