Re: Operation Sports MLB 13 The Show Community Impressions Thread

This time I tried with all star batting, veteran Pulse pitching(I haven't used pulse pitching in a full game since like this time last year on mlb12)

Reds: 6 runs,14 hits
Phillies: 8 runs, 11 hits

Both teams struck out 6 times

Phillies with 5HR
Reds with 2HR

79% of my pitches were strikes
80% of CPU pitches were strikes(cpu strike frequency was at 2)

Must have been something with the starters.
Halladay lets up 6 runs,13 hits in 6 innings
Cueto lets up 6 runs,8 hits in 5 innings


Rest of Phillies pitchers combined for 1 hit,0 runs in 3 innings

Rest of Reds pitchers combined for 3 hits,2 runs in 3 innings

YES! I have gotten my redemption finally... Playing in my 3rd postseason after getting knocked out of the first 2 during the Wild Card game with the Red Sox... This time Im in the NL with the Braves, I beat the DBacks in the WC game and then in Game 1 NLDS vs the Reds I was down by 1 with 2 outs in the 9th and a guy in 2nd when... BJ Upton blasts a 2 runs shot to take the lead! Kimbrel came in the shut the door... Finally I came back and won rather than the other way around...

Also, I played the Challenge of the Week, what a difference!
They did great with it this year, I remember last year I would swing away and hope I made contact. With the hitting window opened a bit I can now see the pitch and decide... Even though I only got like 70,000ish points or something like that, it was a blast to play... and its free now!

Also I played my first HRD online with Middlebrooks and... WON! patience is key, also solid contact lol... can get a little intense watch everyone's HR and outs going up but it was very very fun...

One thing that I'm starting to get annoyed with. Playing the Nats in a three game set. Through 10 innings, Bryce Harper has 3 stolen bases. Each one has come on a called pitch out. If I can't get him when I "know" he is stealing whats the point?

I don't know, I look at those guys and they look fat to me. Maybe we can get a big bone model (Cartman voice).

I played some more today. I like that I can now hit.

He doesn't have great speed so that is surprising. If Harper can do that, Trout should do that and steal third as well, while the catcher throws to second

Memo to self: "reduce base runner speed or steal ability"

Thanks for the heads up. I hadn't messed with base running sliders and I'm not home yet but am scared if I lower runner speed it may affect my base stealers.

Re: Operation Sports MLB 13 The Show Community Impressions Thread

I love this game. My only problem is lack of discipline in the hitting department. I had a Perfect Game thrown against me today in which I struck out 18 times! Safe to say I will be spending some time in Batting Practice . My pitching isn't bad, though I do make silly fielding mistakes as well that usually cost me. I love the challenge though and I'm looking forward to my first 0-165 season


One highlight I have had is throwing two people out at home (seperate games)

Re: Operation Sports MLB 13 The Show Community Impressions Thread

Not really surprised since I was expecting it, but I could count the number of SCEA pitchers who were given a running fastball or a circle-change on one hand... The number of pitchers with 2-seams and sinkers as their primary pitch is great though

Did u use the new throw meter? If so, did u go all the way to the red or keep it in the green?

I'm still trying to work out the throwing system.

Re: Operation Sports MLB 13 The Show Community Impressions Thread

Game is really starting to piss me off. No matter what im always ahead. Turn timing and contact all the way up. Still ahead. Pitch speed all the way up ahead. Its ridiculous. No mater how long i wait im ahead or strike out.

The throwing meter wasn't visible. I just charged the ball and threw home. Call it dumb luck or whatever, it was just cool.

Just watched a TOR vs DET (cpu vs cpu) game where R.A. Dickey threw a no hitter. The last out was a fly ball to straight away center that was caught on the track. Matt V and I thought it was gone. The Cpu vs Cpu in this game is awesome

I don't know if this was asked, but what do ya'll think of the intro video? I think this is the first time in years that it was not of real life footage.
