Okay, so, I’ve been messing around with MLB The Show 24 lately, and let me tell you, getting the pitching down is no joke. It’s like, the most important thing in the game, you know? Mess that up and the whole game goes sideways. I wanted to share my little journey on figuring out the best way to pitch in this game, ’cause it took me some time, believe me.
So, first off, I jumped right in, trying all sorts of stuff. I watched a bunch of videos online and read some guides. One name that kept popping up was Gerrit Cole. Apparently, his pitching animation is the one to use. I was like, “Alright, let’s give this a shot.” I went into the settings and switched my player’s animation to mimic his. It felt kinda weird at first, not gonna lie, but I stuck with it.
Then there’s this whole thing about pitching styles. I heard a lot about “Pinpoint Pitching.” People online were all about how accurate it is. I gave it a try, and wow, it’s a game-changer. It really lets you put the ball exactly where you want it. It took some practice, but once I got the hang of it, it was awesome.
My Experiment Process
- Tried different views: I messed around with different camera angles too. I found one that worked for me, it’s important to see the whole field and where your players are, you know?
- Practiced a lot: I spent hours just practicing. Pitching, changing settings, trying different animations. It was a lot of trial and error.
- Focused on accuracy: I really focused on trying to get the ball to go exactly where I wanted it. This Pinpoint Pitching thing really helped with that.
After all that, I think I’ve kinda cracked the code, at least for me. Using Gerrit Cole’s animation and Pinpoint Pitching made a huge difference. My games started getting better, and I was actually winning more. It felt good to see all that practice pay off.
But hey, this is just what worked for me. Everyone’s different, right? You might find something else that clicks for you. The key is to just keep experimenting and practicing. Don’t be afraid to try new things and see what happens. And most importantly, have fun with it! It’s a game, after all. It’s supposed to be enjoyable. This game’s pitching is a beast, but once you get it, it’s so satisfying.
This little adventure in MLB The Show 24 taught me a lot. Not just about the game, but about patience and persistence, you know? Keep at it, and you’ll get there. That’s my two cents, anyway. Hope this helps someone out there!
