Man I'm in a tough 1 right now 4-4. Top 10 Yanks V DBacks.
EDIT: Lost 5-4 in 12. Here's a screen of the DBacks managing their bullpen. I think it was realistic. Sipp could have been pulled 1 inning earlier but he never was in trouble.
Jeter throwing error to start the 12th cost me. Great game all around

Somewhere along the way, this series was written off because of washed up colors and missing elements in various stadiums. That has been the "why this game sucks" for a long time. In no way am I saying the game is perfect, but looking back at how this game played with 2K8 etc., it has been greatly improved.

Are you still rolling with the sliders you have in the first post of your thread from 2K12? Seeing any HRs and extra base hits by the CPU?

IF Speed 15/OF Speed 25 Base Runner Speed 45
As for extra base hits I am seeing them. I'm trying to balance the way OF take angles to balls along with the way balls are coming off the bats this year.
Not to mention the way balls are rolling on the grass when hit, which this year seem different than other years. The ball seems to just keep going instead of dying due to the grass

Is it still a requirement to have the strikezone ON in order for the Hitter's eye (text thing) to work?

I can dig it this year's version. I even moved the 360 to a new TV to really make it feel like a new experience.
Ok back with more impressions of the game. Played another game against the computer, Braves (me) vs. Astros. Don't remember the pitchers because they were not top of the rotation guys and still default sliders. Was a GREAT game winning 4-1. Hit an awkward homer with BJ Upton down and away which idk how triggered a HR. Regardless it was fun!
Now moving on to online. I HATE online play in most games due to most users playing weird etc. I played the first game, Washington (me) vs. Rangers. He was messing around it seemed the first inning, but after he started playing pretty good. Somehow I had 6 errors??? Made a fun wall climb in inning seven and the game ended 6-5 after bringing the closer with a W for me. I'd definitely like to play some of you guys from here online. It's a solid experience so far. Hopefully I don't get the bugs some are seeing often.
Still happy I purchased this game.

Im having alot of fun with this game. Finding the right camera angles to make it look like a broadcast has been fun. Finding the right sliders will make it even more fun. I like how the computer plays on all star, but had to bump myself to legend and make a few adjustments. Does anyone know if base runner speed affects the runner running to first base? Does it affect the animation where the runner slows down just before reaching first or is that just one of the flaws in the game?

I am enjoying the minor tweaks. Colors look great. Animations seem smother. Check swing functions correctly and can now pull off on contact swing. Fielding speed is fantastic now. Throwing meter and arm strength improved. Best of all, hit variety is great. Ground balls can get through the infield, ripped line drivers make it over heads and there are some real gaps to be found in the outfield now.
I must commend MLB and 2K for their brilliant market strategy as well. Releasing MLB 2K13 the same week as Sim City, so their game didn't seem like the biggest rip off around.

I am having some good games, but I am seeing a lot of split second pausing just after hitting the ball and plays in the outfield. Anyone have any camera settings that eliminate this or is this something that's happening to everyone?

Happy Friday to all..funny story-keep reading.
I finally got the game, got a great story, decided to play the m's instead of my stack angels. I picked the astros since i wanted to see how they faired vs the M's off-season offense. Well King Felix took the mound in a PLAY NOW game default sliders PRO. Seems to be doing ok pitching. It was another situation when it came to hitting the ball. Bud Norris through a NO NO - I did not even get the ball of infield - I think the OVR all rating for the m's is a about right (CRAP). So I feel pretty bad not even getting a single hit with my first go with 2k13.
I'm going to give it another shot right now. I just go out like that?..I have played to many years of 2k to be no no'ed. I hope this is not a sign for bad things to come with bad teams. I wanted to try a Houston AL west chise, but bad teams might now works vs. Power Houses.
Overall I think i like the game way better then 2k12. I'll post again a bit.

Ive heald off so far on both baseball releases. whats keeping me from purchasing 2k13 is that there is no PC version. and that they got rid of the dual stick control batting. I hear that its one stick plus button mashing. can anyone conform this?
