![]() All in all, this game was definitely a good start to rebuilding a franchise that I for one hope gets renewed for next season. They remain low and run with their heads ahead of their feet, not straight up. Runners should not slow up and run with their bodies at a 90 degree angle to the ground. The baserunners look like they are running in a Benny Hill skit, and basestealling is a tad unresponsive. My biggest gripe is the baserunning, which has always been my big gripe. The commentary is much better, the graphics and sound are vastly improved. That being said, baseball is a statistical driven sport and this game goes a long way into intertwining statistical percentages with game play. People need to understand that baseball isn't a high action sport, and it isn't the developers fault that that is what they are given to work with. I don't think it will ever be where nba2k is, but I think its because of the sport, not the game. But it has made big strides in the right direction. I don't think it will ever be This game isn't perfect by any stretch of the imagination. ![]() ![]() You can adjust the Tendency after you find the three pitches you want to keep, but its affect on the overall game is very minimal.This game isn't perfect by any stretch of the imagination. The Speed, Control, and Movement are all based off of your player role, so they won’t budge an inch. As you pick different pitches, you’ll notice the Tendency category changes for all three pitches every time you change one selection. Certain pitches like the slider can’t be picked for your third pitch, but can be for your second. The second and third pitches also have some strange caveats, but are have a little more freedom. The first pitch must always be a fastball of some sort (cutter, four-seam, two-seam, etc.). Team Leader: Again, virtually indistinguishable from the All Around.Īs a pitcher, you’ll have to choose three pitches to start your career. Average pitches.Ĭontrol: Similar to the All Around, though you will have better starting control over your pitches than you will velocity or movement. High velocity and decent movement for pitches.Ĭlutch: Has a good clutch rating, but offers little else. Average pitches.įinisher: Low stamina and high composer. Work Horse: High stamina, and solidly average in most every major pitching attribute. Average pitch statistics.įly Ball: Has decent pick-off, but fairly below average in other attributes. Ground Ball: Slightly better at preventing homeruns. High velocity and decent movement for pitches. Strike Out: Better at preventing contact by right- and left-handed batters, but lower stamina. Will result in rudimentary control, velocity for pitches. It should also be noted, the categories here will impact your individual pitches as well.Īll Around: Average attributes in all categories. Even though the pitcher has a bit more to work with in regards to strengths and weaknesses between roles, there are also only a handful of the nine available that we would recommend using. The pitcher roles are a little bit different, and thus offer slightly more customizability than the fielder roles. Even if the player at the second position is rated higher than your created one, you will get the starting nod. Make sure it’s a position your created persona will be able to play easily (second base and shortstop, catcher and first base, third base and outfield) as MLB 2K13 will automatically place you into this second position in the Majors if a higher-rated player is holding your primary spot. The archetype you choose will have a tremendous influence on how easy (or challenging) it is for you to progress through the Minors and into the MLB.Īs a fielder, you’ll also have the advantage during creation to choose a secondary position. Both career paths feature nine different player archetypes, with each having distinct advantages and disadvantages. Though there are nine positions on the field, My Player basically breaks down into fielders and pitchers. ![]() ![]() MLB 2K13’s My Player mode isn’t as intricate as the career mode found in the NBA 2K series, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t a lot of different ways you can play. ![]()
