Only when the other player had less than 3 bars (PS2)....

Personally, I'm loving it. Perhaps it's because I'm getting used to load and fire so quick, but it's a lot of fun. The new hitting system really gives you a good feeling whenever you jack one out of the park against an online opponent.

I'm probably also enjoying it because I'm riding an 11-game win streak with A- ranked Missouri (I haven't lost since my first 3 games.) I guarantee it won't last though - as more and more people start learning the system, I'll start getting my head handed to me.

And on that note: Load and fire and analog throwing settings (among others) are locked for ranked games. You have to use them. You can choose any of the modes for an unranked game though.

Oh yeah - ranked games are still 5 innings a la MVP 05.

Is everyone playing as Texas online?

Maybe I can get some games in with OS folks over the next few nights.

I using Wichita State which is my team in a current league so I need to get familiar with their line up so far 5-0 and hit a bomb in my fist ever game of 06. Went right online when I got home and hit a bomb over 400 hitting is not as hard as people make it out to be!

Thats why i was wondering, cause it appears that everyone wants to play as a powerhouse. I hate that. When i play with my friends we usually run small schools, in football. In baseball ill probably run with KU, since they are my favorite team.

So if anyone is on sometime and wants to run some lower level schools get at me.

do both of you have to use the same hitting/fielding system? Lets say I enjoy L&F but my opponent likes zone... can we mix & match? I havent been online yet and Im stuck at work, just curious.

Online is L&F and analog throwing!!

As he mentioned, for unranked games, you can pick whatever you want. Im asking, FOR UNRANKED GAMES can each of you have a different setting?
