SENDING INVITATIONS
You can invite friends to play by highlighting a name in your
Friends List, pressing
A
, and then selecting Send Game
Invitation from the Friends Options Menu.
PREVENTING GAME DELAYS
In an online game, if a pitch is not thrown within
one minute
,
a pitchout is automatically thrown (for a ball). After three
consecutive automatic pitchouts, the other player will be
given the option to end the game (and win by forfeit), or give
the first player more time. This also happens if either player
pauses the game or has the Xbox controller unplugged for
over
three minutes
.
CREATE/TRAIN PLAYER
To create your own player, select Create/Train Player from the
Main Menu, choose a profile, and then press
A
. Select Create-
A-Player, and then press
A
. Specify a name, position, and
physical traits, and then press
A
. Assign player accessories,
press
A
, and then finish creating your player by giving him
attributes (or skills).
PITCHER/BATTER ATTRIBUTES
In the final phase of creating a player, you get 75 points
(for pitchers) or 50 points (for all other players) to use to
increase the player’s attributes. When you select an attribute,
a message will tell you how many points it will cost to improve
that attribute. If you decide to spend the points, it’s similar
to buying a spin on a roulette wheel, and you’ll end up with a
randomly generated number (from 1 to 50), which will then
be added to the current total for the selected attribute. Certain
special attributes are not available until they are unlocked.
ASK NOMAR
How do I get more points to build up my created
player’s attributes? And just how good can he get?
Player attributes max out at 99, and as the attribute
rating rises, the more points you’ll need to increase it.
The points necessary to increase attributes are
earned by winning games, putting on outstanding
individual hitting and pitching performances,
participating in the Championship Challenges, and so
on. To get the most improvement out of your player,
take him through the Training Tracks. His ratings will
go up every time he performs well in the
Training Tracks.
SYSTEM LINK
You can physically connect two Xbox video game systems
using Xbox System Link Cables. Or, use Ethernet cables to plug
the consoles into a 10Base-T network. Refer to your Xbox
Instruction Manual for instructions and additional information.
To use System Link, select Network Play from the Main Menu,
and then System Link. Instructions are similar to those used
for Xbox
