Ego setting

[crusader]

Can you still split the ego settings between hitting, pitching and fielding? I can 't seem to find it.

On the main menu press Y / Square to highlight the bottom menu, press right on the dpad to select your profile and you should see an option to "Toggle Ego Mode". Do that and you'll see the ego level change to 4 seperate ones, then select "Change Ego" right below it to set each one individually.

The pictures representing the the different egos are so small I had to walk up to the tv to see what they were, lol.

Understanding how to change egos, I'm curious as to everyone's methodology as to when/how much they adjust their ego? For example, what criteria has to happen before you adjust hitting up or down? Baserunning? Pitching? Hitting?

it depends which type of game your looking for:
I prefer tight game ending up 3-2, 4-3.

So, If i'm at batting Ego 60 and always score 6-7-8 runs, I bump the batting ego to 65. If it's still too easy, move it to 70, etc.
Same for pitching.

For baserunning: If I'm always safe even with medium speed runners, I make the ego harder.

And for defence, if it's too tough and miss a lot of pop fly, I move the ego down.

I have not adjusted things individually yet. I started an elimination mode on 40 and was crushing the CPU by 15 or 20 runs. So I bumped it to 45, then 50 and and I am now at 55. I still won but only by 6 runs and that was due to a lucky Grand Slam so I think I am getting close to where i need to be.

For hitting and pitching - I felt I needed more offense on both sides in my games (a lot of 2-1, 1-0 games) so I lowered my hitting Ego a couple notches and raised pitching Ego some.

Baserunning/Fielding I'm leaving low since I have a hard time reading the ball right now. Sometimes I think it's going in the gap and it's caught and vice versa. Though, with Fielding if I feel I'm getting to too much given my team's ratings, I might start raising it a little, though I could just leave it and not touch anything since the players run slower when you don't move them yourself.
