VTek33 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I've been trying to get the number of hits per game down for me and the cpu but it still ends up over 10 every game, my record is 10-3, manny, ortiz, and drew are all hitting over 400, etc. I've got the power sliders set at -40 for both user and cpu, and contact for me at -27, -34 for cpu. I'm playing on MVP with the strike zone/hot/cold zones off and pitch cursor fade and pitch speed at -6. I'm also using Trues newest datafile. I got to thinking rather than lower the contact sliders more, maybe I should change my pitching approach? I usually go for the quick 0-2 count and try to get guys to chase. Before I write too long a post, instead of messing with sliders more, should I try to set guys up more often and go into deeper counts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaddiesDaddy Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 are you using a modded datafile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sblime4u Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 try pitching out of the zone more when your ahead in the count Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTek33 Posted March 16, 2007 Author Share Posted March 16, 2007 MD, no, the only thing I've changed in the datafile is the pitching6 view, nothing for hitting or rally modifiers or anything. Do you think I should consider a different file? sblime, ok I'll see how that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SESbb30 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 use the one from the 07 mod, pitching is harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTek33 Posted March 16, 2007 Author Share Posted March 16, 2007 So go back to the default datafile, put the sliders back to 0, and edit it from there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SESbb30 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 are you using the 07 mod? if you are just put the pitching sliders to make it harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SESbb30 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 and lower the cpu's hitting sliders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTek33 Posted March 16, 2007 Author Share Posted March 16, 2007 Yeah, I'm using the 07 mod with trues' datafile. I made pitching harder for me a while ago but my top pitchers would have very few strikeouts. I guess it's a hard balance to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfalvey Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I had a similar problem until I started pitching around the edges of the strike zone. It's hard to walk CPU batters anyway, so you shouldn't feel as though you need to throw it anywhere near the middle of the plate. Occasionally, though, you can throw a fastball w/ max velocity right down the center with 2 strikes on the batter and it usually catches the hitter off-guard and he never gets the bat off his shoulders. Other things that have worked for me include mixing pitches and changing speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTek33 Posted March 16, 2007 Author Share Posted March 16, 2007 Yeah, I usually try to hit the edges but maybe I'm not changing my spots enough- too many fastballs low and away or trying to get the strikeout going up and in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SESbb30 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 if you had fewer strikeouts, lower cpu contact, and swing freqeuncy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
