Well, my point was that the system was working, but maybe it's just an intermittent thing, so keep trying.
Didn't think I had to spell it out that clearly, but internet. |
At least on the 360 the game play is VERY different online compared to the regular game.. have to decide a LOT sooner to swing.. took me and Hipocrite 7-8 innings to figure out the timing (I won 1-0 in 12, but every inning after the 8th we both had runners on)
|
lol
I either use too many smileys or way too few. Was totally joking. |

This was happening to me too - each time it actually was sending a charge to my cards, just not registering on the system. I found this out when an Amazon purchase was denied because my charge had been temporarily locked for suspicious activity (multiple 2.99 charges). So if you were getting card errors, I'd check to see if they were actually going through. Still no game in the game purchased history for me, though :( |
okay...so can someone explain the two-stick pitching system? what do i do with the left stick and what do i do with the right? i thought i had it, but i'm still kinda confused i guess
|
If it's like the 360:
Left stick aims where you want to throw the ball (note: this is where the pitch will ORIGINALLY head, before any break is figured). Right stick does the motion for the pitch |

Hmmm, mine seemingly went smooth, but I immediately got an e-mail from Capital One telling me to call them. lol |
weird

okay. and what controls how much power goes into the pitch? why do i keep getting these "bad gesture" things? does that mean my motion for the pitch is totally messed up? |
|
yep - i have multiple pending charges on my account too...

thanks mizzou! the manual is slightly helpful, but not great. that walkthrough made shit a lot clearer! |
Bought the GameStop deal and tried it out and I really can't see myself playing it when I have The Show. I absolutely hate the gestures based pitching, it's like they took the annoying QTEs that I can deal with when they're in the middle of Uncharted and decided to build a game around them.
It also didn't help that they kept the same abysmal UI that's in NBA 2k10 that they made no effort to port to PC. |
Still crashing out. Very convenient timing for Gamestop. Wonder if they had some kind of quota they could/were willing to sell up to and then these mysterious errors start happening...
Either way, I'm sure they won't be crying about missing out on my $2.99 but it has ensured I'll never do business with them online again. Complete clusterfuck. If only Steam had the same deal. |

me too :rant: |

good thing i looked though - i also noticed i have a $14 charge from a chicago cab pending...and yet i haven't been in chicago in months...:rant::rant::rant:SHADY SONS OF BITCHES!!! |
I'd like to publicly thank DaddyTorgo and sovereignstar for all of their efforts in trying to help me get the game. sov finally got the purchase done but I was still locked out from the download due to being outside the US.
It was much appreciated. |
mofo - they had better sort this shit out. what a fricking joke. welcome to the late 20th century gamestop.
what makes it 10x worse is I tried using my wife's account when mine failed the first couple of times. anyone here know if it's possible to fudge a bank statement? |
So do you or do you not have the game yet? My generosity has no limits.
I can send you my gift download that was so hastily "returned" to me. ;) |
still don't have the game, I did send a message to their customer support (who I'm sure if they are still there are shitting bricks by now from all the pissed off people seeing 15 charges on their cards lol)
If 21C really can't get it from down under and you don't have anyone else to give it to, that would be very nice of you. I'll paypal you if you have an account. |
sending PM

that's lame...sorry 21c |

another question - how come sometimes i have the two circles collapsing into one (grey + gold) when pitching, and sometimes it seems like i just have the gold ones (and on those i can't reach full power)?
|
Just downloaded from Gamestop. My first game, I was being no-hit by Liriano. In the 8th inning with two outs, the Twins up by two runs, he's taken out of the game.
:banghead: |

Did you expect more in that requard in a console game? Heck, I think Puresim even does that from time to time. ;) |
okay - more pitching help: i seem to constantly get the "overthrown" message and only 81% of my power. That'd mean I'm holding it just a bit too long, right? That and my gesture-making is still not great I have to admit...
|
bastards charged me twice and wouldnt let me download......
|
assholes...wtf?
i'm going to have a field day with bank of america disputing all those charges i'm sure |
DT: For the pitching, here's the tip:
You should FINISH the motion right when it hits the circle (let's take the screwball for example, which is left-downleft-down-down-right-right, I believe) You make the first part of the motion (to the left), hold for a split second, and run the rest of the command in a smooth motion, finishing up at right, hopefully when the meter is at max. Same with a simpler pitch.. fastball (down-up). Press down.. wait for the meter to fill, and move up, finishing when the meter hits max. Of course, as you tire, the window for inputting the commands lessens... |
ohhhhh
motherfuck. i've been making the first part of the motion and holding it until it hits the circle then rushing the rest!! no wonder i overthrow all the time!! thanks SF!!! on the plus side, as i play quick games to try to learn the controls better - i just hit my first grandslam with victor martinez down the LF line over the monster earlier in this game |
The 2nd 360 patch and combined 1st & 2nd patch for PS3 were submitted to QA. No word on the PC though.
To celebrate, here's a 1st inning 3 run shot I just hit with LUUUUUUUUUUKE: 2K Sports |
I've seen the 2k guys say that the PC patch may end up being similar to the patch for nba 2k10, in that it'll be a combination of multiple console patches.
which frankly, is fucking annoying and pretty ridiculous. but i knew that before i bought the game (did my homework), and i wouldn't have paid more than $2.99 to have the game now and have to wait for the patch, because I'd just feel ripped-off. But since I only paid the $2.99 for it, I still feel like I got a good deal, even though there may be issues with it. |

was the forum post about it |
Patch is our for x360.. pitching is harder.. fielders speed has been toned down, etc..
|
Good to see they finally fixed the editing limit somewhat. Now, you can name more than 150 names. It also doesn't count against the limit if it's a name in the database already.
