Authentic's MLB 12 The Show Sliders for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita

[authentic]

Well, it's that time of the year again. Time to release sliders for the best sports game on the market.

For those of you who don't know, I try to create the best realistic game possible. I have played a lot of games already and have a good base to which I am confident to release.

In this thread I would like everyone and anyone to comment on issues they see, or positives they see to help for the betterment of this project. Like every year, certain slider sets work better for some, and fail for others. It is impossible for me to create a set that will please everyone, but I will try my hardest to release multiple sets that will please everyone's needs and wants. Like my NBA 2K12 set, I will release sets for every option available.

I would like to ask that everyone comment in a classy way and try not to get into huge arguments that will throw the thread off topic. Keep it on topic guys.

Also, as the topic says, I will be doing sliders for both the PS3 and PS Vita. Right now I only have the PS3 version set up. I just got the Vita version on release day so I haven't had as much testing as I would like. Expect a Vita version within the next week.

Alright, all that aside. Here are the sliders.

No problem man. Don't be hesitant to post a box score of your games. That's the best way to make small adjustments to suit your needs. Good luck!

Great to see you back with your sliders. I'm firing them up no and playing spring training with my Nat's. I'll post results

[JayD]

I use classic pitching and was curious if you have tried your set with it?

I have not, but like I said, I will end up releasing a set for classic, meter and analog pitching eventually. You could always try it and give input. Makes my job a little easier

Just lost 4-1 with the Cubs to the Brewers. Gallardo shut me down. Brewers had 12 hits and I had 9. I had many chances. I was down 4-0 going into the 9th and pushed one accross. I walked once and the Brewers walked 3 times. Overall, it was a great game. You really have to be patient and hit fastballs in hitters counts. If you get down, fight until you get a good pitch to hit.

I'm 2-1 in the 5th. Plays great. I am getting a good variety of foul balls on both sides. I had a great at bat with Morse fouling about 5 balls and on a full count take it to the center field wall with a nice catch by the center fielder. I am hitting the ball very solid maybe turn down solid hits a notch. Also, the cpu is peppering strikes, maybe a notch down. All in all these play great.
