. Better P Through Analytics
As in the previous release in the MLB 2K series, p in MLB
2K10 requires a combination of analysis of scouting reports and
hurling technique on the mound. Scouting reports are based on 2K
Games' exclusive "Inside Edge" data service, which provides
up-to-date information on AI representations of real batters
across a wide range of data points. With this players can make an
educated guess as to their best chances using particular pitches
against a particular batter based on everything from the current
count, whether it is a night or day game, to how far into the
season it is. P technique is centered around a gesture
p mechanism, where in players deliver pitches through
specific controller inputs using face buttons and/or the analog
stick. With regards to this, the difference this time around is
that in addition to these enacting inputs, MLB 2K10 incorporates
a push button pitch selection system. Players must still input
the correct series of gestures for the pitch they intend, which
are more difficult for more complex pitches, but this new push
button step also provides the game with precise information as to
what pitch you intend to throw. With is extra information, which
the game uses as a baseline for compiling analytics, players can
see where their gestures for particular pitches are off, and
correct them as need be.
An Improved Hitting Experience with "Batter's Eye"
Players' experience at the plate has also been improved in MLB
2K10 through a combination of data and new features. Just as with
pitchers, batters have access to 2K Sports' "Insider Edge" data
to help them make better decisions in specific game situations
based on a variety of stats related to themselves if playing as a
representative of a real MLB player, or the pitcher they face.
But the new feature that completely changes the batters
experience in "Batter's Eye." With this, highly skilled batters
can get occasional, spilt second views of what the pitch is going
to be. Used in conjunction with new batting functionality like
defensive and contact swings, batters can potentially fend off
pitches until the count is in their favor, and/or they are ready
to make an educated guess at what the pitch is going to be and
swing accordingly. As with the p analytics available in
defensive positions, offensive players have access to a batting
analyzer at the push of a button to figure out what they are
doing wrong and right at the plate.
Fielding and Baserunning
Of course baseball isn't just about initial conflict between
pitcher and hitter, so MLB 2K10 gives you all you need to finish
the play from any place on the field. Fielding and baserunning in
MLB 2K10 features easy controls and tons of great animations just
as in earlier releases, but in this most recent version players
can also now cue up the actions of their players while on
defense, or from the basepads with simple controller inputs. In
the case of fielders, once the defensive player is selected,
simply press the face button for the appropriate base or cutoff
man you want. Once your man makes the stop, he will throw to your
chosen spot automatically. This is a big help, especially when
trying to turn a quick double play, or in the case of a ball that
makes it all the way to the wall. Cueing up the actions of base
runners is just as easy. For example, in the event of a full
count where you want to send your runners regardless of the
pitch, or during a steal attempt, simply select your base
runner(s) and use your game controller's trigger to set events in
motion. If you change your mind you can just as easily send them
scrambling back with a the same trigger.
