Sega Sports Tip – Gameplay Sliders
Think of the gameplay sliders as functioning like this:
EASY <-------------------------------------------------> HARD
For example:
• If you don’t want players catching up to each other as easily, move the Pursuit slider to the left.
• If you’re having trouble catching the ball, move the Catching slider to the left.
• If you want more of a challenge when kicking field goals, move the Kicking slider to the right.
Everybody has their own preferences on the field. Gameplay Sliders allow you to customize the game to
your liking, so spend some time adjusting and tweaking all nine of them, as well as playing with various
combinations of settings, until the game is perfectly suited to your style of play.
