iSkylla Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Can you direct me to a thread to help me with pitching? I feel completely lost in this game. Also, what pitch settings are you using? (Not sliders) Breakpoint aim or pinpoint? Thanks. Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/39488-pitching/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
rixmithco Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 If you go into Practice mode there is a tutorial you can bring up on pitching. That is the best place to start. I use pinpoint aim, but I think that breakpoint aim is (surprisingly) easier.

iSkylla Posted May 9, 2009 Author Share Posted May 9, 2009 What's the difference between the two? I've done the tutorial, still a bit confused as to when to do the second part (the gesture?) Like if it's a fastball, you do down until the yellow fills the circle and you do up when?

electro_cute Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 as soon as it fills. hold first gesture while the circle is filling then do the second one imidatly after it's filled.

CircleChange11 Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 [1] Breakpoint means that you aim where the pitch will START it's break. Pinpoint means that you aim where its going to FINISH. [2] Practice, practice, practice. THere is also a link in of the other pitching supoort threads to a video tutorial on 3-step pitching. It's from 2k8, but it's the same system in 2k9, only in 2k9 it's less dificult. In 2k8, different pitchers had different "paces" (speeds you wold have to do the gesture, etc), and it would get vastly more challenging as fatigue increased.

iSkylla Posted May 10, 2009 Author Share Posted May 10, 2009 Yeah, I got the breakpoint and pinpoint after, I'm more of a fan of breakpoint. I took off release timing for the time being and it's a bit easier though I still get hit pretty hard some of the time, especially if you leave hanging curveball. Anyways thanks for the help, I'm doing my franchise, I have the yankees and I got Justin Verlander and Tim Wakefield for essentially nothing.
