The question in my mind was how does CleveCluby answer. As for the hypothetical case presented in my previous post, well, that is how we did it on the forum where I moderated. If someone asked so-and-so a question, they waited for him to reply before popping in. If the question or comment was in the general sense, anyone could chime in. Sometimes people don't want/like others answering for them. The weight of ones answer can be diluted by someone else speaking first.

Can we get back to the patch itself and the opinions of it instead of this thread being about you and how forums should operate?


--------

Back to the topic at hand.

One thing I noticed post patch was that the AI seems to be matching up pitchers better than they had previously. In my game vs the Rockies, they brought in a left hander, after the righty gave up a double to Rios, to face Carpenter and Hazelbaker, walked Holliday and pitched to Moss. He got all 3 outs facing lefties.

Could just be a coincidence but I have never seen this before in the game.

Look, others questioned what I wrote and I replied to them.

I am not demanding how this or any other forum should operate. I have given an example of how the forum I moderated did operate. They can do whatever they like here. At my age, I am not interested anymore.

Okay, countryboy, go forward

Have a nice day!

I've also seen it myself when I was using 10/10 (on All-Star) and was lucky to see 25-30% SB success from either side (and most of them weren't even close). I queue the steal or sometimes the runners go on their own (autobaserunning). When I adopted his 4/4 (still on All-Star) setting, it all opened up. Guys can be threats, SB rate got pretty decent. He saw the same thing, which is what made him move down in testing. Just curious, what's your team's steal success rate and how do you steal? Maybe that's the difference? Are you at/over MLB average (71%)?

I am not sure what my team' steal success rate is just started a franchise yesterday. I had been trying to find the right sliders and difficulty level to play on and been watching NBA playoffs. So I haven't had a lot of time to play but I do know that both me and the CPU are more successful then we are unsuccessful. I steal by pushing the steal button that makes it so your guy goes right when the pitcher starts his motion to home plate. That is with both baserunner speed and baserunner steal ability at 5. Have you tried upping baserunner steal ability to see if you can have a higher steal success with high pitch speed?

So after playing a few games with the new patch, I'm satisfied and happy with the game.

Mr. Kodii Rockets can attest to how realistic a number 5 starter is against a formidable lineup.

Does anybody know what face player scan was updated ?

Hmm..makes me wonder what the AI will do vs Ichiro going forward (he's a LHB that's much better vs LHP). Might be even more of a reason to keep him around.

Yeah I don't know if it was coincidence or something to it. Definitely going to have to continue playing to see how it plays out.

I'll be interested to hear/read how the cpu handles Ichiro.

I already had that slider at 10 (as does nomo)

I tried raising baserunner speed (slider, not rating), saw no difference. Lowered infield arm strength (even though it says it doesn't impact catchers - might be old description, etc), no change.

Literally, the only thing that improved it for me was lowering the pitch speeds.
