MLB 12 The Show Videos - Zone Analog Batting and Pulse Pitching

[nomo17k]

I'd be amazed if it was HUM who was playing while the movies were captured. I can imagine very best players moving PCI to the pitch location at will like that, but I honestly have seen only a couple who could do that online, not that I was always playing against top players...

I hit the cage the other day to try (button) zone hitting. It's actually more fun hitting that way and it feels good to generate solid hits even on pitches on the black. I've set my personal challenge for MLB12 to be able to hit with zone analog, PCI pre-fixed. Hope analog swing was adjusted to be a tiny bit quicker though...

It's gonna be fun.

1:40 shows that Miller Park batter's eye was not updated. It still has the green railing from back in 2010.

Removing that railing turned Miller Park from a neutral stadium to a hitter's stadium. There is not many solid black batter's eyes in the MLB, and Miller Park is one of them. Well, not in MLB12TheShow

I hope this video isn't from the final build. These types of things usually don't get patched.

Read the first page. These videos were made before CD.

The pitchers arms move much more realistic. I want it now.

Two things I don't like about pulse pitching 1) That constant pulsing will probably give me an actual headache after a while 2) No control over pitch speed. I think the existing meter system is an elegant method of simulating pitching and I won't be changing.

As for the new zone analogue hitting, I speak as someone who can't even walk and chew gum at the same time, so I will definitely be sticking with the timing method.

Pulse pitching seems to be a more complex version of the pitching mechanic used by com2us in there 9innings baseball game for iPhone or iPad.

I really want to see footage of Cliff Lee and Roy Halladay to see if their motions are improved. I absolutely hated Lee's motion last year.

More than likely the longer you hold down the pitch button the "harder" the throw. That's my guess anyways.

Am I the only one that noticed that David Wright had a different style of helmet?

I wasn't that great with analog batting, but I'd atleast like to try ZAB, and Pulse Pitching, in spring training.

Currently there is no way to control speed in pulse pitching. May be incorporated in the future.
