Use AIM. I thought this thread was actually bustling

It is,just in a different way than you would expect :(

I figure the more we talk in here the more people will check out the thread and think about getting the game.I dont want the thread to die and then have to bump it.

Alright what options do you guys play with online so I can learn on that?

Well right now we have only been playing ranked games that have been set to 5 innings,analog batting and fielding on,it's the default ea online setting.

You should practice hitting and fielding using the right thumbstick,but something tells me in the long run if we do have a league people will want to use the classic hitting and fielding.

I will dominate just like I did in the MVP tourneys last year!It's all over ladies.

I dont recall being dominated :lol

I also recall it was me with the best record in the league till all you biznatchs stopped playing,I think Bob had the most wins but he had more losses than me.

Doesnt matter anyway,this isnt MVP,I have 3 hrs total in like 36 games :lol I used to sometimes get 3 or more hrs an inning.
 
Miguel said:
:lol I have 4 HRs against Matrix I think. in 4 games. Plus it was my first 3-4 games I ever played. :lol

4 hrs,5 losses,no wins,80 errors and one massive choke job ;P
 
I'm going to see if I can log on right now, got a couple games in offline working on analog hitting and fielding and it is fun as hell.
 
Anyone on right now? Last game was laggy as fuck (b/c of my shitty connection that I'm trying to fix) but I actually got used to it.

When I'm lying in your bed
Play the motions through my head
You know that I'm thinking, I'm thinking
And I have reasons to believe that
I'm not the only one that you spend this time with
But I'll stay

You say you're weak
You wont let me down, you wont let me down
You lie through your teeth
You smile in your sleep, smile in your sleep

When we met you said we were the same
You know that we're different, we're different
And all the times you promised me
That everything would work out in the end
You were gravely mistaken

You say you're weak
You wont let me down, you wont let me down
You lie through your teeth
You smile in your sleep, smile in your sleep

(you lie, you lie, you lie, you lie)
You lie, through your teeth, you wont let me down (you lie)

I deserve better than this
I dream of steel
Maroon and warm, your end
You gasp for air
I'll see this through, I'll see through you
Your pale blue eyes

When you're lying in your bed
Your eulogie's been read
You know that it's fading, you lied

You say you're weak
You wont let me down, you wont let me down
You lie through your teeth
You smile in your sleep, smile in your sleep

(you smile ,you smile, you smile, you smile)
I deserve better than this

EA TRAAAAAAX
 
Alright, I played a few more games online (now 2-1 against terrible opposition). I think my connection was working pretty well today; in the two games I played there wasn't any "lag" in the sense of stuttery play, but there was still about a .25 second delay in the button presses being recorded, and this is really noticeable in the pitching (makes it very difficult). I can get "Perfect" on just about any pitch offline but online I'm lucky to get it in the zone b/c my timing is so thrown off.

Is this common or do you guys not have this kind of delay when you play online?

Anyway it's a fun game. Really makes me wish EA had a share of the MLB license so they would have had more time to polish the game (the mechanics are fun as hell, but could use a little more work) and obviously so we could play with MLB teams. There are weird little things too like I can't figure out how to get the display to show my stats instead of ratings besides doing it in-game each time. Also I wish you could turn off commentary and stuff online to hopefully minimize the chance of lag.

Good times though, certainly worth the 30 bucks for someone who hasn't played a baseball game in a while. Oh, baserunning sucks though (unless there are serious nuances to the mechanic that I haven't grasped yet, but I doubt it).
 
:lol

I created myself, DM, a bunch of friends/people on my HS baseball team, and some people from another forum for my UH roster in dynasty. Matrix and others will be added next as my setup guy...:lol

DM is my best hitter :(

Batting .571 or so through 4 games.
