    Hey Guys,

    One of the powers of working for 2k is i can start leagues very early by adding "filler" teams to get the league full to start. I've done this for the Test league. We will still accept signups if anyone wants to take the following teams:

    :bmin::bstl::cinnr::bhou::kwasn::bla::btex::bcol::bmil::bsea::bpit::batl::bfla::bsd::bkc::boak: :bdet:


    The league has been set off "legend" settings, so hopefully offense will be earned.

    I want to also use this thread to talk about slider settings, what you like or dislike

    Good game willo,

    Sliders seems to hold up pretty well.
    IMO the pitch speed is very fast, i wouldn't mind seeing it a bit lower so you have more time to read the pitch. The down side is this will lead to more offense

    Anyone else have thoughts on this slider

    I agree with the pitch speed its alittle to quick to try and see what pitch and where the location of the pitch is.

    Ok so the sliders are to fast for pitches. Its hack n slash on every pitch no matter where the pitch is and once you get used to it the hitting becomes easier. At least on a lower slide setting you can fool the opposing batter into swinging at a changeup when expecting a fastball etc.

    Times three. Except after being on the receiving end of the two beatings. :D

    All in good fun though.

    Good games guys. Except for Ibanez dropping balls, and watching the ball roll past me. [Btw good sportsmanship on that, Rangers]

    Thanks for the feedback guys!

    The "Pitch Meter Speed" went from 80/100 to now 70/100.
    Please let me know your thoughts on this slider change

    any way to reduce the amount of Home Runs ?

    i played 2 games vs today and both times i had 6+ homeruns is anyone else having this happen to them. I mean i dont mind hitting the Homeruns but would like to see this setting tweaked it possible.

    Also should be a rule that you can only take 1 base if a ball is over thrown. (my thoughts)

    Anyone have a problem with guys not catching balls seems they miss them alot or more than normal amounts, like flyballs ...

    So can those dummy teams still be filled? I can take the spot of one of them if you still need people for the test league.

    Anyone still feel like the pitches are just TAD too fast? It could just be that for the first few innings RANGERSFAN and I had a bit of delay but it still seems like a guessing game to me, pretty much swing at everything which I usually dont do. lol

    o and get this, i throw a scoreless 1st inning with......MAICER IZTURIS!?!?! how the hell did he get into my starting rotatin? I checked, my rotation is lackey, santana, saunders, weaver and i forget the fifth's name. crazy game.
