Positive or Negative??

[Materfiend]

I play on the PRO setting for MVP 04. I've made some slider adjustments to cut down on the flashy leather plays by the CPU, but there still remains one problem....the pitcher.

I never truly understood how the -50 to +50 worked. I assumed that if you place a certain feature in the minus that it was considered a takeaway and visa versa if it was a plus. But I've just read a few post that indicate to make a CPU pitcher tire more quickly, it should be a plus value.....Is this the case??? :?:

Thanks in advance

Which slider are you asking about?

[Materfiend]

The sliders in general.

[nittanylionfan3]

I think that your'e right

It's plus, and you better put it in 30+ if you want to see their bullpen before the 8th.

Thanks hongfu_chen. I just want to make sure that I'm clear on this. Using positive numbers on the slider settings will lower the ability of the CPU, and putting numbers in the negative will increase the CPU ability??

Thanks bro. You cleared this whole mess up. Granted I think that I may have been punishing myself with some of my settings. Overall, I've enjoyed the game play itself other than watching the CPU pitcher throw 110-120, before the bullpen even considers warming up. I've managed to slow down the CPU OF to allow a few more balls to drop into play. The CPU was eating up anything going into the outfield but you watch a ball game and see there are a lot of balls the OF can't generally get to. By doing this I end up using the field shift more. It just makes it more realistic.

I'm gonna consider some of your recommendations and balance this circus out. Once again, thanx. :D

User OF speed is + 8

CPU IF speed is - 8 (or more, This is especially important to avoid most of those diving plays and making some senses out of hitting ground ball)

I didn't mean to put the face there.
