Game Settings - making changes

barrybonds · 03-31-2021, 03:11 PM

Hi, I'm starting a new game in MLB and considering changing the player/AI settings. The goal is to achieve realism, especially for player development and trading. The setting should be challenging, but not painful.

I've modified game settings shown below per Foolish Baseball's YouTube tutorial. These worked well with two other MLB saves of 3 seasons each but thought I'd ask how to spice it up a bit!

Global Settings
Keep transaction logs = last 2 years

Players & Facegen
Uncheck “Enable Baseball Cards”
Batter Aging Speed = .750
Batter Dev. Speed = 1.000
Pitcher Aging Speed = .750
Pitcher Dev. Speed = 1.000
Talent Change Randomness = 135

AI Settings
Trading Difficulty = Hard
Trading Preference = Favor Prospects
Ratings Weight = 30
Current Year Stats Weight = 40
Previous Year Stats Weight = 20
2 Years Ago Stats Weight = 10
Lineup Selection = Sabermetric (Splits favored)
