I may have solved the CPU swingathon...

I am using guru's 2kshare v1.5 sliders and all i did was set the AI Batting Pitch Influence to 0 and i am in the 2nd inning of a game between the pirates and padres and i already have 1 strikeout with snell and have had a few 2-2 and 3-2 counts...

I've observed that by throwing a healthy amount of balls you will see the CPU start to take called strikes in the zone.

just finished the second and now have 2 strikeouts, not sure if 0 is best for this slider, may affect other teams plate production, but so far they have 3 hits and have had men in scoring position.

started a new game to see if it was a fluke... playing with indians vs a's and in the first lee loaded the bases and gave up a grand slam so i dont think setting it to 0 affects CPU hitting whatsoever. i also have the strike zone window turned on to see where pitches are in the zone. next batter i struck out on a 2-2 count. have also noticed swinging 1st pitch strikes that were in the zone and 2nd pitch strikes that CPU let go right through the zone.

side note: i believe the origin of this whole problem is due to the inside edge bug with the walk rating and overall rating. always being D and A or B respectively.

What does "AI Batting Pitch Influence" even mean?

[waitforamirror]

i have wondered that as well. i by no means think this fixes the game, have yet to see a batter not swing on the 1st pitch if its in the zone, but now they do miss some... i think setting this to 0 does combat the REAL bug that causes this, but it does allow you to get deeper counts and even strikeouts.

just had felix pie take a 1st pitch strike!!!, now playing indians vs orioles

bump for possible hope that this might work.
