    No I was referring to guess pitch. If you guess the pitch right, it obviously lights up the zone and makes the click sound if you guess the pitch right. Well if you don't guess either right, then nothing happens, which immediately lets you eliminate the pitch you chose and the zone you chose from the possible pitch destinations. So my point is that in real life a hitter is locked on that pitch or that zone and doesn't have several seconds to realize either selection is wrong, which is what you can do in the game.

    Hope that clears things up.

      I have never used it. Don't really think its cheating by any means, just have never had the urge to try it out.

        lol @ people getting all bent out of shape because someone thinks using GP is cheating. Its like watching Clemens and Bonds get angry when someone accuses them of using HGH.

        I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

          And I fail to understand where that comment is coming from, or the point of it in this thread. Did the OP offend peoples' sensibilities here, simply because he finds the game easy?

            I think it rubs people the wrong way when someone posts a thread about a game being too easy, almost like they're so great at the game

              Ok... so then why don't you just use the No Feedback option?

                Re: does anyone actually use guess pitch

                I use it and whorship this feature. it has allowed me to become a super insanely super patient hitter. on average i can get a starting pitcher up to if ont over 100 pitches by the 4-5th inning. i use 1/6, look 4-seamfastball and low center zone. if i dont get any icon to show up, i dont swing, unless there are two strikes then i do no matter what and somethings that no matter what is really really ugly bad.

                here the last couple days ive been asking myself - self are able to do this without the guess pitch feature, then i see a ball go low below the zone and realize that if i didnt have the guess pitch feature i would have swung at taht ball down out of the zone. so all praise the all mighty guess pitch feature as it has allowed me to continue to love baseball games.

                  Re: does anyone actually use guess pitch

                  I didnt mean it as completely cheating.If your new to the game, sure you have to use it.But if youve played the game since 06 and are experienced then i think it might be time to say goodby to guess pitch, or at least use no feedback.Especially with 08, Ive noticed this is the easiest one of them all to hit pitches.But if you like getting 15-20 hits a game thats cool.I play ALOT so i am used to waiting for my pitch with guess pitch off.Sorry for starting a riot haha, remember these are MY opinions and there is no need to get angry.

                    And we're off and running again ...

                    I've played the game since 2006, and yet I still like and use Guess Pitch with feedback. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

                    I do not get 15 to 20 hits per game using Guess Pitch.

                    I would not want to get 15 to 20 hits per game.

                    Thus, what you call "opinions" are actually stated as facts (or assumptions), and these facts/assumptions are incorrect.

                    So, what is the point of your thread? As soon as I saw the title "Does anyone actually use guess pitch?" it was crystal clear to me that the word "actually" was your way of saying, politely, "is anyone pathetic enough to use this? I am not." And I get annoyed when people come on to forums and opine that there is only one way to play a video game -- their way.

                    If the true point of your post, as I suspect from reading between the lines, is to suggest that you are really good at this game, and people who use Guess Pitch are not good at this game, why don't you get honest and just come out and say that?

                    Again, what was the point of this thread? Why did you really start it? You are telling people that use Guess Pitch that they need to give it up, right? Why? Why would it possibly matter to you whether or not Joe Shmoe in Keokuk, Iowa plays with Guess Pitch? I certainly don't care whether you play with or without it. Whatever floats your boat.

                      totally agree with u...

                      i play this game since 05(mlb 06) (i did play a little bit of mlb 05, chavez on the cover too, but that game was quite diferent from 06) and i must say love the guess pitch feature(feedback ON)..

                      About the 20 hit stuff becasue of the guess pitch on...well,thats bollocks...i get too many hits no matter if i use guess pitch or not...

                      the only stat i can say that changes when i use it is that i get more walks and x-base hits with it on than the single fest i have with it off.


                      hit number is not affected by it in my experience..might as well be a lot diferent for other people..but not for me.

                      BTW, great post chuckm1961...i couldnt have said it better!

                            that comment that I bolded, was unnecessary man. No need to tell people how they should be playing the game. None whatsoever.

                            I've played the game since '06 and have used GP each year. Before that I played ASB and used the GP in that series as well. Some people like it and some don't. No problem with either feeling. The problem is when someone tries to tell someone that one way or other is "wrong" in a sense, is uncalled for.
                            I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                            I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

                              the thread wasn't pointless when it began, if he was just trying to get a discussion going on the positives/negatives of using GP and not using it. However, if this is nothing more than to put himself on a pedastal because he doesn't have to use it, then it indeed is pointless.

                              And I wouldn't be surprised if this thread gets locked shortly, as it seems to be nothing more than a breeding ground for a debate rather than a discussion.

                                Never have and never will.

                                Batting .283 as a team averaging 4.9 runs a game through 30 games in my chise so really dont need it.

                                Do i consider it cheating? Yes.

                                Do i think less of anyone who does use it? No, its their game they paid for it, play it how you want.
