huskerdoug Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I have set batter's eye on for the first time the last 2 games and I never get the guessed pitch or location regardless what I try. I attemped 3 innings in a row always selecting down and away pitches, and many times the pitch was there. I never once saw the pitch type. The only time I have ever seen it was in practice hitting mode, and they always throw it down the middle so I never move the eye. I am on the PC using keyboard only. Do I have to select the button in the control menu (F4 is what mine is set for) after I select a location I want the eye, or do I hold the location I want until the pitcher starts? Would be nice to have this feature, especially for 0-0 or 2-0, 3-0, 3-1 counts where I can sit pitch and location and attack if I like it. Anybody had any success figuring this out on PC?

Maestro23 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I don't use the keyboard, but this thread might help. http://www.mvpmods.com/index.php?showtopic...+Controls\ Welcome to the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huskerdoug Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 I have batters eye turned on, so I know that is not the issue, and I can see what the control I need to use to do whatever the control is for. When I press that button (F4) for me, the little dark circle vanishes. What I dont know is if that turns it off for that pitch or sets the location I want. It appears it turns it off, as in practice I no longer get to see the fastball (always turns green in practice down the middle). I have never had any success in a game situation to guess a pitch, so is it broken on PC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted, I use a gamepad, but will see if it works on PC or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huskerdoug Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 Ok thanks, I dont think the type of controller should matter in this case, so let me know if you have success during an actual game. My next game I am going to guess the same location for every pitch the entire game, if batters eye works you would think you should see at least ONE correctly guessed pitch :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huskerdoug Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 OK i think i figured it out. On the PC with keyboard controls you have 10 options only. You can leave the eye alone looking for a pitch right in the middle, or you can select one of 9 zones outside of the strike zone, you cannot look for a pitch down and away IN THE ZONE, just way outside. I am not sure if you can fine tune this with a controller or joystick, but keyboard you either look right down the middle or for junk way out of the strike zone. I am sure this is the case as countless times when I looked down and away, the pitch would clip the down and away zone but I was never notified prior. On 4 occassions throughout the game I got the pitch indicator prior to him throwing, each time it was way down and away, exactally where the dark gray icon was. With a controller can you fine tune the eye inside the zone? Let me know if you have success. Below is an image of what I am talking about, that is where I must look, outside the zone.

jaywil Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I am using a logitech rumble pad, I have the batters eye turned on (i guess) when I go to control under batters it says to push my (4) button. In game I press the (4) button, but I do not notice any changes.... Shouldn't I see something???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huskerdoug Posted March 23, 2009 Author Share Posted March 23, 2009 When you have batter's eye activated, pressing button 4 will only turn it off for that next pitch from what I figured out. With my controls (keyboard) it seems that batter's eye is pretty pointless because I can only guess right down the middle, or one of 9 locations way outside the strike zone as shown in that screen shot I took. I am not sure if with a controller you can fine tune the little circle inside the strike zone. If anyone can tell me if you can, I will try to dig out an old controler and see if I can get it working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maestro23 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Can someone tell me where I go to turn Batters Eye on?? Controller Options, then hit "#4" on your keyboard. Can change your hitting/pitching modes here as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
