Looks similar to last year's sliders. I don't see a slider for the CPU AI to take a strike, foul ball slider, etc. similar to what was in the game 2 years ago.
Hopefully with the attention paid to pitcher/batter confrontation and the new defensive swing mechanics, we'll have more realistic pitch counts, etc.

Keeping my fingers crossed.

I hope so, otherwise it would be a huge bummer for me not to have a foul ball slider.
looks like sliders were removed and things were simplified a bit. This is a good thing if the default sliders play well (which they did in the demo). This will be a really bad thing if the default sliders do not play well.
I noticed the batting success slider is gone. Maybe having 3 sliders for batting is too much so that it's difficult to get a good combination. Take out 1 variable and it's easier to get solid sliders.

I agree with ya. In my opinion, not having a " batting success " slider is big stride in the right direction. I don't think it's a good idea to have success sliders in a sports video game and I think gameplay should depend on the person playing and the player's attributes.
Saw this also.. No slider for Throw Speed = Arm Strengths tweaks via Rosters.. Unless Arm Strength is tied into the Throw Meter (doubt-it)
As a huge baseball fan and 360 owner, i am pissed off that this is not in there when it was a Huge Concern last year as well as previous years.
I just dont understand why this slider cannot be put in as well a infielder throw speed. It doesnt make any sense its like they want to piss the people off that see this as a problem, which is quite a few people.
Forgot to add what was written correlates with Doubles and other extra base hits and infield hits as well. Throwing accuracy which i did not see in there, which i am hoping is related to the throwing meter, is a huge factor as well MVP had this i dont understand why this game doesnt.
The encouraging thing about OF/IF Arm Strength is they can be edited, so this does take away some of the sting of not having an Arm Strength/Speed Sliders.
Some things that are encouraging are the ability to remove a lot of the on screen stuff:
Now this section of Presentation is interesting. Why ask for Height/Weight/Date/Time?
The other thing I noticed is there's no option for Cursor Hitting?
Joe, are you talking about the option to use Classic/Cursor Hitting? Last year the Hitting method was changed under "Controller Setup". Clicking the Left-Stick brought up the screen for changing Hitting/Pitching methods.
