Batting Stratgy (Moderate-Strategy Tip Guide)

1. Well let me see we start things off by passing up the first pitch exept if
your really confindent the go strait ahead and swing(just like in real
basesball ,if you swing to the first one it will be either a pop fly or a
ground ball and SOMETIMES a HR)never happened to me though..


2. We look at the pitch. If the pitch starts out it will usually break in or
the other way , depending if he's a Lefty or Righty. These breaking balls that
cross the plate are very good balls to hit out of the park just LOOK at it!
thats the key.


3. Dont move around the hitting cursor to much! unless you have the hitting
handicap all the way down to 0% wich i highly doubt. After you think yo know
where the ball is gonna end up stay with the cursor in that position and when
the ball is 4 1/2 feet away RELEASE the R trigger. When you really get good at
this you'll get the feel and you'll know when your gonna hit a HR.**Never go to
sleep in an at bat , if you do your swing is gonna be an easy ground ball or a
lousy pop fly.

Manual Fielding and Faster Running Tips (Not Complete Manual Fielding)

Hello all,
I'm a first time writer but long time reader and first of all I'd like to state
that this is the BEST BASEBALL GAME EVER!!!!!!!! The reason that I decided to
write is because while playing this game last night I discovered a few things
that should change the way you veiw this game.

1. YOU CAN MANUALLY FIELD.
2. Your A and B equal turbo.

I've seen where someone posted that you can manually field within the infield
which is very true but the same applies to the outfield(at least on veteran and
up).  Now I'm not saying that you have 100% control over the players but if you
use the a button to TURBO towards the ball, infield or outfield the player will
display a sudden burst of speed and he will get get to the ball much quicker. 
Since I started doing this those hard hit balls don't go over my head anymore,
as soon as the ball is hit I continuously press the a button and move in the
direction of the ball and if I can't catch it I'm able to get the ball into 2nd
much easier.  Gone are the days where the computer or a friend can go for
second or score easily of a soft blooper hit over the compters head because he
stands there and watches the ball fall in front of him.  The infeild is even
easier I kno a lot of times the ball will roll right in front of the infeilder
or they'll run for and just when you think there gonna dive for it they don't,
that's because they want you to do it.  On every ball hit, GO GET IT buy using
a as your turbo and if you can to the ball they will dive for just by pressing
a and the direction.  Now be careful because a is also to throw so once you
know that you have start aiming for the base and they'll throw them out.  I
also noticed that they shift a lot more now like you know when a ball is hit
softly to an infeilders left or right side  and they'll just do like a comlete
shift and easily suck it up and throw you out, well if you move as soon as the
ball is hit they'll instanlty adjust to it and do the shift thing a lot more.

Now when I say that a and b equals turbo I mean just that but as you know a and
b by themselves also equal advance and return to the bases.  If you constantly
press these buttons the runners will speed up considerably but you must be
careful because when they get close to bases they will overrun them, the b
button also turbo's the runner back when it's continuously pressed and this
really comes in handy when the computer runs on a pop fly because now you can
let him run a littly bit and if you need to get back keep pressing b and not
only will he go back but right when he gets to the dirt at the end of grass in
front of the bag he'll a super turbo dash move and then dive in.  This allows
you run the bases very aggressive and I now score to three more runs a game
just off gambling on if I think I'll be thrown out, if the feilders throw looks
as if it will beat me I'll turn around after being 3/4 of the way and still
beat him back to the original bag.

Let me know if this works for guys and feel free to e-mail at

Getting More Player Creation Points (Tip/Cheat Strategy)

A *really* cool feature I found involving created players.

Using your created players (it may have to be in a season, but I'm too
lazy to scientifically check - I use them in a season) will cause them to
gain ability points that you can distribute.

I made a pitcher who had a delivery I didn't like. I got through one
successful game with him (1 ER, 4 K) and went back to change him. When I
got to the pitching attributes, there were extra points to distribute in
the main five! (speed, control, power, breaking, stamina)

Playing a hunch, I tried it with my third basemen (who's been on a huge
hitting streak lately) and found that he had a large number of
distributables too!

So presumably, doing well in a season causes your players to gain ability
points.

6. Questions and Answers
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Q: What NO Manual Fielding, that's 1/3 of the game taken away.

A: Sega did this to create different views and new camera angles for the gamers
to experience the graphics at their fullest at ever part of the game. Maybe you
just have to wait for WSB 2K2 if you really need to manual field.


Q: How come the game slows down when my opponent steals or comes home

A: I don't believe it's a cinema slow mo, but I believes it's just a slow
loading process or bug that causes a slow down in the whole game play, but the
runners don't get an advantage nor the fielders. The game quickly changes to
that scene without even having a chance to load and it's loading before you
while every other part loads before it actually happens as batting then you see
the ball.


Q: Where's this guy and that guy, there not even on the team?

A: Sega took the rosters from spring training, so if someone was hurt last
season the may have not been on the roster during spring training but came in
later. Recent trades have been updated in the game, but if your wanting a
Triple A player who barley came in right before the all-star break he won't be
in it, unless you create him?


Q: Where is the homerun derby feature? Is it a code to get it, what's the deal?

A: Unfortunately the homerun derby feature option was left off, for what reason
I do not know. The only way I know of to play homerun derby is during the
season mode in which to get the All-Star Extravaganza you must play at least a
52 Game Season or More. The reason for taking off one of the best features of a
baseball videogame beats me, because even the 16-Bit games contained this game
mode and for Sega to just leave this off puzzles me.


Q: My Fielders are just letting simple hits go right past them while their
standing their how do I fix this?

A: You need to set the level you are playing on to All-Star or Legend, the
fielders start to stop more and go after normal hits in the lower levels that
they normally look at or make no attempt at all for.


Q: What is the handicap feature and how do I use it?

A: The handicap feature is an option that allows the player with the higher
handicap an advantage. So if you want an advantage raise the handicap to the
highest number possible for the biggest advantage.


Q: Ok so I have this handicap thing moved with advantage, but what does it do
to my batting and pitching?

A: On batting, the higher you set the handicap increases your chances of
contact with the ball. So you can now get a little more on top and or under the
ball and still hit the ball with better contact than you normally would which
would result in a weak ground ball or long fly ball. But does this create more
homerun power and not just contact? Well in different instances yes and no. If
you are barley holding down the R Trigger don't expect a homerun but better
contact and more base hits. But if you are holding the R Trigger down more, now
that the contact zone is expaned you will have more of a chance to hit a
homerun. Remember though to hit a homerun even without handicap is contact,
keep that in mind with handicap on where it is expanded.

On Pitching, the higher you set the handicap increases your movements on the
ball through the strike zone and makes the computer miss pitches it may
normally hit. With handicap on (set at least 50%) you have better chances of
getting K's and maximizing your pitches abilities to the fullest. The computer
does help by missing more than it normally would, but it's on handicap. This
would be best for people who have trouble pitching with location and the
computer usually racking up quite a few hits that lead to quite a few runs.

Overall I hope this helps anyone who has been wondering to what extinct does
handicap fully do explained in detail.


Q: Where is the homerun derby mode at?

A: There will be no homerun derby feature included in WSB2K1, the reason is
unknown why Sega has left out the feature and has not responded with a press
release on why they left out this feature. There is no code either to unlock
this feature so don't worry about trying to beat a season only hoping to get
this feature unlocked, it simply was not included this game's release.


Q: Is the WSB2K1 release on the 25th the second version with homerun derby,
weather, ect.?

A: There is only one version of the game and regarless of what date you got the
game it is still the same as the games that are being shipped today as you read
this. Rumors have gone around about this, but there is only one version of the
game and currently Sega has no plans to release another version, call for a
recall of the game, or release a patch to update the game. The WSB2K1 you have
is the Final release for this year and we will just have to wait till WSB2K2 to
see if Sega took their loyal supportors seriously and added many new features
and upgrades with more than we could annticipate for.


Q: Why can't I hit homeruns?

A: You need to work on getting your contact to the ball better. Homeruns can
come with a late, early, or perfect timing swing and rarly do you see pertect
timing swing homerun. So don't worry about swinging late or early and just
focus trying to hit the center of the batting cursor with the ball. The closer
you get it the further the ball will go and the more chances you have increased
to hit a homerun. And even if you do this and do not hit a homerun you build
the skills to get more base hits and the homeruns will come as you learn the
batting interface better.


Q: I use the auto aiming code, but it's not really helping me as much as it's
hurting me what the deal?

A: Well auto aiming does got where the ball is moving too but there is another
factor involved with it. The higher you set the handicap while using this
feature the better you will hit the ball. So using auto aim with a 100% batting
handicap means the ultimate hitting.


A: You said there was no HR Derby I have it so take that.

Q: Show me the proof by some picture or anything, don't say why do I have to
show you I've been here longer than you and respected. Well that don't make a
difference at this point, if someone has the mode take your credit and show us
the picture that just keep opening your mouth like the rest.

7. Current News and Thoughts
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

7/22/00 - WSB2K1 is released

7/24/00 - Lately everyone has been trying to get all they know to get petitions
email Sega, ect. They want the game to be better, and if it's not their way
they don't want it at all. As gamers I respect their thoughts and overall
feeling to the game. But I do not respect them trying to trash a game as good
as this. Yes it doesn't have everything but so be it, it's still the best
baseball game ever created.

7/24/00 - If you still cannot find a game trying looking at Best Buy, Circuit
City, or something like that, most people are only trying major game retailers
where their sure to be pre-ordered or back-ordered.

7/26/00 - Bad News for anyone that does not like WSB2K1 and is waiting for ESPN
Baseball Tonight, unfortunately ESPN Baseball Tonight will not be released to
rival WSB2K1 due to Konami not wanting to release an unfinished version of
their game (A Stab at Sega?). So enjoy WSB2K1 for what it is because it really
is a great game. WSB2K1 still not available at many game retailers as they are
waiting for new shipments in, yet those are more than likely also pre-ordered
and reserved.

7/27/00 - Well we have many rumors confirmed that certain features are not in
the game, but something still bugs me all about and I can't figure it out. The
best I think we can do now is just send any suggestions for the updated version
so Sega will have something to work with.

8/01/00 - None

8/06/00 - I personally think there is NO Hr. Derby mode, and and if you go to
the boards at (www.gamefaqs) then you know I have stated this. I would like to
be proved wrong but until then I will stay where I am.




=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
10. Rumors
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Here I will list rumors that have been posted on many boards over the internet
from Dreamcast Forums about options or features that may or may not be
available in WSB2K1. I have actually emailed Sega and will post the full email
in entirety with their exact responses to my questions on some of the game, you
may feel free to send any rumors you know of or have heard to
unbreakable7@hotmail.com, anything sent as long as not offensive will be posted
up here unless it is the same as something already posted but will contain a
number in parenthesis next to it to indicate how many people have emailed me
about that particular rumor.

Is there any possible way by code to play the features stated on the back of
the game? Please anwser this and not one of the lame responses. Just say yes
or no to each one of these:

1) Is there Home-Run Derby with or without a code?
2) Is there weather option with or without a code?
3) Is there hot and code zones with or without a code?

Please anwser this question because you can change a site's advertising but
you can't change false advertising on a game package that was released for
people. And don't even say that cover happened to be on the package and
forgot to be changed for around 1 million packages throughout the US. Sorry
to sound rude, forgive me, but I really am upset because even my all-star
game during the season used the 2000 All-Stars whats with the game?

9. Future Improvements
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Every 2 Weeks I will E-Mail Sega with the improvements you suggest that should
be in WSB2K2. This way we can hopefully receive a well-improved WSB for next
year. Email me improvements at unbreakable7@hotmail.com. This weeks will be
sent to Sega on August 5th. Also note that some improvements may be the same,
because I will display all the reader's responses, so that if their is a
overused idea it will make more a hit at Sega.

	Ericjwm@aol.com writes:

1) Optional manual or auto fielding as well as optional batting cursor, for
those of us who just want to be able to time the pitch and then swing without
aiming a cursor.

2) Weather conditions such as rain, snow, and wind as well as thin air at Coors
Field.

3) Temperatures that affect the players appearance such as long sleeves in cold
weather.

4) Breakable bats so that it would be possible to get a broken bat single.

5) More season options such as a two player feature during the regular season,
as well as the option of being able to play in or watch any game you want
during the season, besides just the team you picked. It also should have online
play as well.

6) Dynamic camera angles after one of the star players hits a ball that they
know is gone, such as Griffey or Bonds watching the ball as they start walking
to first or Samy Sosa's little jump that he does after he hits a homer.

7) Signature batting stances and swings for the following star players who did
not get the special treatment in this years version : #1) David Justice ; #2)
Frank Thomas ; #3)Raphael Palmeiro ; #4) Albert Belle ; #5) Will Clark ; #6)
Jose Canseco ; #7) Fred Mcgriff ; #8) Vinny Castilla ; #9) Greg Vaughn ; #10)
Mike Piazza ; #11) Ivan Rodriguez ; #12) Andres Gallarraga ; #13) Dante
Bichette ; #14) Chipper Jones ; #15) Manny Ramirez

8) Player injuries and errors.

9) Optional arcade or simulation game play. With the simulation games being
slower paced with more details, like complete and detailed warm up swings for
batters & catchers throwing the ball back to the pitcher after each pitch.

10) More animated ballparks with working waterfalls in Kauffman Stadium, Edison
Field, and Coors Field, as well as improved crowd animations.

11) Improved stadium sounds and play-by-play with color commentary.

As is WSB2K1 wasn't realistic enough.....I think it should be even MORE
realistic. Ex. When your pitcher hits a batter, the next inning the opposing
pitcher hits your lead-off batter, and then the managers come out and the umps
get pissed.

Some things that I would LOVE to see in WSB2K (most of it won't probably
happen):

1) Charging the mound

2) Suspensions

3) Showing the manager, 1st & 3rd base coaches, and those dumb people that
field
foul balls

4) Calling up AA/AAA players, maybe even people from Japan (ok, that's going
too
far)

5) More crowd interaction (Ex. vendors shouting for popcorn, people putting up
those little K signs, people at Turner Field with those foam axes and chanting
'hoooooooooooooo', and 7th inning stretch singing of Take Me Out To The Ball
Game)

6) Celebrity 1st pitches (ok, thats going TOO far)

7) And something very extreme but something I would like to see...random
personal
events (drugs, sudden death, DUI, etc.). I can see it now: "Pedro Martinez
arrested for marijuana and MLB suspends him for 1 year." Ok, no but hey, it
could happen.

	LeOnBrVhRt8 writes:

1) Better sounds from the crowd and crack of the bat, catch of the ball ect.

2) Charge the Mound Option, Which if you choose to you can be suspended for
your actions to use this action

3) Homerun Derby Mode, where balls can go anywhere in any part of the stands
(Batting Practice like NFL2K's practice mode also)

4) Updated Power Rankings for players, Jeff Kent, Andruw Jones, Richard
Hildalgo, ect.

5) Manual Fielding

6) All-Star Extravaganza with homerun derby and all-stars picked based on
current season stats

7) Hot/Cold Zones for Batters

8) When homeruns are hit players do actually homerun jogs and walks back to the
dugout, Sammy Sosa's sidestep to first, BigMac does the arm bash after he
touches home, some players stare at the pitcher after they hit one then trout
the bases.

9) Change to a simulation and not an arcade, let the catcher throw the ball
back, around the horn after a K

10) New Commentary from 2 people at least, go hire some Fox guys or someone
else with colorful commentary PLEASE!!!

11) More camera angles

12) Bring us back a NFL2K version of WSB, don't let PSX laugh in your face
again.

1) The commentary is what brings this game down to an average game. They should
try having play by play commentary like the Triple Play Series and have former
Major League players do it (Harold Reynolds?). If this game had better play by
play commentary it would be perfect.

First World Series Baseball 2k1. I think WSB 2k1 is a pretty good game but it
is missing some key things to make it the best it could be. First I think the
pitching is to hard. It should be where first you pick your pitch. Then you
push the analog stick and A or B to aim your pitch. A would be a strike and B
would be a ball. For example up and A would be a high strike and left and B
would be an outside ball. Then you pick your speed and you can additionally
aim with the analog after you pitch. Next there should be a choose uniform
and hat option. Many teams have more than one jerseys and hats they wear.
Finally in the create a player option you should first choose the skin color.
Next you choose the face style. Next you choose the facial hair and color.
Finally you choose the hair, hair length, and color. These options would make
world series baseball 2k1 the best game it could be.

*NHL2K* Next NHL 2k. I am one of the biggest hockey and Philadelphia Flyers
fans
ever. So hockey is my sport and i love NHL 2k. I think i captures the hockey
sense. I know hockey games. First in all modes there should be injuries and
suspentions. Part of playing through a season is battling through injuries
and suspentions on your way to the Stanley Cup Finals. But it shouldn't get
out of hand. Next simply the players should have their numbers on their
sleeves. nough said. Next there should be a jersey numbers and captain and
assisstants option for each team. This year I was playing a Flyers season and
the real Flyers trade Mikeal Renberg to Phoenix for old time Flyer Rick
Tocchet. Tocchet's number was 22. But that was occuppied by Luke Richardson
so he took number 92. But in my game he was 22 just like Richardson. Next the
captians and assisstants are there to choose the leaders of that game. The
C's and A's should show up on their jerseys. Next I have some suggestions for
the create a player option. You should have the same options in NHL 2k but
add these. Just like in WSB 2k1 you should have to choose skin color, face
style, facial hair, facial hair color, hair style, and hair color. You should
also choose the equipment type. For players, helment style, gloves style,
stick color, blade color, tape style, tape color, skate style. For goalies,
helment style, helment color, blocker style, glove style, stick color, blade
color, tape style, tape color, leg pad style, skate style. Next there should
be a deek button. Here is how the controller should go: ON OFFENCE: X - quick
shot/slap shot, A - pass, B - speed burst, Y - deek, R - dump the puck, L -
line change. ON DEFENCE: X - poke check, A - change player, B - speed
burst/body check, Y - block shot, R - last man back, L - line change. You
don't need to change coaching stratigies in the game you can do that in the
pause menu. In the game play i have 2 things. The goalies should have more
motion caps. so they can like make saves on their back or from their knees.
Finally the glass breaks way to much. It should be rare for the glass to
break. It should only happen when like Al MacInnis takes a 100 mph slap shot
that sails over the net and gives the person in the front row a platter of
glass and rubber. Or like Scott Stevens checks a guy so hard that he windes
up 8 rows back. *NHL2K*

THE OBVIOUS:
1.) Two man color-commentary and PA announcer (and "TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALL
GAME") make example of EA sports commentary

2.) Working weather effects.

3.) Manual fielding option.

4.) Home-Run Derby

5.) Franchise mode (GM, salary caps, retirements, and rookie signings)

6.) Better stat tracking (OBA, Slugging percentage, lefty Vs righty, and, etc.)

7.) Errors (overthrown pitchs, dropped balls, wild pitches, collisions, booted
balls)

8.) Injuries and stamina (Hot, moderate, and cold ala WS 98)

9.) Just a couple of more animations (I haven't seen it or know that it is
already there, but homeplate collision with the catcher)

10.) Dropped third strike rule if it does not exist.

11.) Option to warm-up your relieving pitcher or sit him down.

12.) Team specific crowd chants and music (such as the Braves' Tomahawk Chant)

13.) Emotional reactions after strikeouts (ala WSB 98) and double plays

14.) Ducking pitcher animation from WSB 98

15.) Top Minor League players for each team.

DESIRED :
1.) Rain Delay tarp sequence and according commentary

1) A feature that I feel is WAY overlooked in sports games is a jersey
selector. NHL 2K was the first and only game to my knoweledge to have
one. It would add alot to WSB 2K2 to have that. I know my Blue Jays have
4 jerseys only two of which are in WSB 2K1, unless i have yet to see
them.

1) The game need better throws. Since when does a player throw a ball with as
much ark as this game. The throws on here are horrible. Whers Vladimir
Guerrero's Gun or Jay Buhners and all of the other guys with hoses. The ball
should be thrown on a line not a arch as big as the golden arches in St
Louis.

2) Another addition needed is stats for the current game so we know what a
player has done so far in the current game. Also along these lines is a box
score so we can see players stats at the end of the game.

3) Player of the game awards would be nice and I don't know if the seaosn has
Awards but if not those would be great also.

4) Balls bouncing off of surfaces once a home run has been hit is something I
have wanted for ever. I have yet to see a game implement balls hitting
things like the scoreboard, back walls of bullpens or other parts of the
stadium.

5) Balls hitting players in the fiels also needs to be put in. For this I mean
if a player is running and may get hit by a hit ball than it would be an
out. Also players should be able to be hit by balls thrown, like when
ruuning to first and the pitchers has to throw from behind the runner.

6) A franchise mode with multiple seasons. Also a farm team and rookie drafts.
Multiple player trades, free agents and other gm decisions.
