The sliders work.
Perhaps not as extreme as some would like...but they work.
Some of them do not....and the dev team told us they were disabled.
That's my main point when people say they don't work at all. Why would they even bother saying that some don't work if they all don't? .....they would just not say anything.
The dev team has been pretty open with us on pretty much any aspect of the game....I don't see any reason to doubt them on this.

i dont know about the right analog swinging, as zone hitting is a lot easier, but throwing with the right analog stick like 2k8 would be nice

I want to see many options with hitting, and at each difficulty level. I'd like to see zone,cursor,no aim(just hit x), and throw in one that uses right analog stick. I personally would like to see cursor style hitting, but if we had the options everyone could be happy.

now your just talking like a community leader, lol, come on knight you know there are plenty of sliders in this game that don't work period, how about the foul ball slider, if that one works i'm, a monkey's uncle, there are plenty of others that may work but are so subtle that you really can't tell if they work or not, also how the heck do sliders make it into a game that don't work period, like the outfielder and infielder run and throw speeds, that was very shoddy QA at scea.

I must just stink, but I think the hitting system is just about right. I'd like to see more extra base hits much more than few hits total.

I like the time progression idea, but I almost certain that has been confirmed for this year's game.

I'm not a big RttS fan. It's okay, but I'd rather manage the whole organization. The idea of practicing could be okay if it was like the mini games in Madden/NCAA.

I'm not a big fan of mater based throwing systems either. Over the course of 162 games it's just a bunch of extra clicks that I prefer are determined randomly by the player's stats. That's makes signing the right players more important and adds to the realism because pitchers can have bad games. Once I use a meter system for awhile I usually get the timing down so well that almost every pitch goes where I want it.

Re: Five Ways to Make 09 The Show a Hit

Sask,

This community leader thing has nothing to do with covering for SCEA. We aren't going to be salesmen for them, or guys like, what was his name 2kgamer, or whoever he was that came onto the 2k boards prior to release of the game and said "no lag", blah, blah, blah, bulltoot and then disappeared when the game was released. Made an absolute arse of himself, fibber to boot.

There's always the possibility sliders got put in that weren't finished and taking them out might cause some other problem. I really don't know. I do agree about the foul ball slider 100%. If it's subtle, it needs to be less so, way less so, if it doesn't work at all, it needs to.

We are going to be voices for this community because they appreciate our/everyones input, everyones. Just look at the end credits of The Show 08. It mentions the people of Operation Sports (all of us).

I bet if we took a vote we'd probably put SLIDERS THAT REALLY WORK right at the top of the list. I know if there was just one thing for me, it would definitely be this getting accomplished.
