What are you using? (Swing, Pitching, Difficulty)

[NimCross]

I am curious to see what everyone else is using. Last year I played on HoF mode with the buttons.

So far with 11 I am using Stick Pitch and Hit on All Star mode. However, I am finding there is no way I can intentionally swing inside or outside when the pitch is coming in those directions. Without being able to do this I am finding hitting difficult.

Are you using buttons or the swing stick? What mode are you playing on? What are you finding on these settings?

Thanks for the feedback,
Nim

I use:
Analog Veteran Hitting
Analog Veteran Pitching
Analog All-Star Fielding

Notes:
-I haven't changed sliders. The FB's comes good for me. The CB's goo too. I just learn to wait for my pitch and crush it.

-I love hitting this year and i just moved up to Veteran. Fun and I crush the ball when the pitch is there for me.

-Pitching wise, I hang my Cb's sometimes and it gets killed just like real life. I might move it up to All-Star soon

-Fielding is the best part for me. I'm probably going to move it up to HoF and see how it goes from there. I usually either don't make errors or only one per game which I hear is good.

-This is my first year that I moved off of Rookie on anything, so I'm happy with the results I'm getting and love the game.

Cool! Thanks.

Timing Hitting (Veteran)
Meter Pitching (All-Star)
Button Fielding

Analog controls in video games never really did it for me (except in NBA 2K because it feels so much more elegant) so I like to stick with what I've always used in The Show. Getting great results so far with the settings I'm using, coupled with Marino's sliders.

Like you last year I was on HOF for hitting and between HOF and Legend for pitching.

My current settings are:
Analog Pitching: HOF
Analog Hitting: All-Star
Analog Fielding: All-Star

I seem to be right in the middle of the pack in all statistical categories which is legit since i'm the Blue Jays.

Like you, I find it near impossible to swing inside or outside after judging whether it's inside or out, then timing it.

I'm hoping after repetition, my brain will learn that if i pull that way there is better contact. That's how i got better at hitting in general, I just instinctively started to swing at pitches that could get solid contact, and I learned that subconsciously.

EDIT: I also did not touch the sliders this year. They all seem great. One that may need a tweak is the player fatigue. They seem to need too many games off.

I think the default slider tunes are awesome too.

Analog for all. Havnt touched a slider.

Hitting : Veteran. Good numbers and fun except too difficult to read pitches and draw walks. Catcher cam 4 BTW. Also, I dont bother trying to swing inside or out and hit fine that way.

Pitching : All star. Perfect sim for me. For the first time in any bball game Im walking 2-4 batters a game!

Fielding: All star. Also perfect and fun. I actually have to think about how im going to throw the ball.

If I could just get a better read on pitches this game would be perfect.

I'm playing on Legend with Analog pitching and Zone hitting. I'm using button fielding.

I would use Analog hitting if I could use the left stick for the PCI location and just swing with the right stick. With the much improved CPU batting AI, Legend pitching really isn't that tough and I'm really loving Analog pitching.
