So you want your opponent to pause 30+ times a game to set his defense? I'll kindly not have that every game.
You can actually do it at the beginning of the game for every batter in the line up, or choose to do it on the go. And I really don't mind, those adjustments just take a couple of seconds. Reality is most people don't even know how to set everything properly because the auto-shift does everything for them and they've been relying on the game to do it for them for years.
A couple seconds 27 times or more could add like 20 minutes to a game
couple seconds × 27 = 54 Seconds
In what math universe does that add up to 20 minutesLol oh ok so it takes only 2 seconds to do it?
It sure as hell doesn’t take 40 seconds like you seem to think.
Dude seriously go away...learn what hyperbole is

It stops seeming like an intentional exaggeration when someone does the math for you and you defend it or question it again.

Wow. Major butthurt reporting for duty apparently.

See that's exactly what I mean. If you have nothing to contribute, just scroll along and mind your business.

You came at me for a difference of opinion about mercing me 9 out of 10. You need help sir.
My words are truth. Don't like the shift? Use some different players. You wouldn't hit 450. That's laughable in every sense of the game.
You are taking this way too seriously. Take a step back and go for a walk or something.

You tried to school me on some nonsense. That's not the same as having a different opinion my man
.

I am actually batting around .450 on All-Star FYI. Feel free to look up my BR stats to verify. So not that laughable, maybe for you but not for me. However, you still don't get the point I was making, you're a bit hard headed. I have no issues with the shift. I have issues with the auto-shift aka bailing out lazy/incompetent players.
You are taking this way too seriously. Take a step back and go for a walk or something.
Because I have a valid complaint that bothers me. You on the other hand have contributed nothing but toxicity in this thread.

I would be batting .450 or higher. That's not even an exaggeration. I absolutely hate the fact that the auto-shift is turned on by default. Using a shift, or not, is a strategic decision and should be user controlled at all times.
If you lack the presence of mind to put on a shift in a specific situation, or if you're simply too lazy to do the defensive adjustments, I feel like you should be burned by those balls through the infield holes every single time. But now, the game bails you out by putting an auto-shift on basically 80% of the players in the game, making those well hit pulled balls into the shift ot lasers up the middle automatic outs. Those are great at bats with great swings being outs while my opponent did absolutely nothing for it. Another fine example of lowering the skill gap.
No you wouldn’t be hitting .450 or higher.. trust me the game would still make the ball go right to one of the fielders no matter where they are standing lol.

Careful, you live by the sword, you die by the sword.

Serious question... I turned off automatic shift because I noticed so many “late/okay doubles. However since I’m flirting with the 800s, I’ve noticed more teams are shifting again. I assume at the high skill level it’s more effective?

I concur....with RNG...the determination as to whether it was a hit or not was made long before the hard hit grounder or line drive was fielded by the 2nd baseman playing short right field.

In my opinion, a “shift” against a lefty shouldn’t even be considered anything other than normal defense at this point.

Wait a minute. You are really trying to flex about hitting 450 on AS in BR?
That's like claiming you have the best toilet in the world because it flushes.
Enjoy your day. Happy flushing!

I have the shift off and I'm doing just fine in the higher levels. It works even better there I would say, because the fastballs come in a whole lot faster and therefore it's more likely you'll give up those late swing doubles against the shift.

Once again Johnny, I don't need, nor try to measure up with anyone on a forum. You have a massive micropeen complex about people believing you on claims. You do realize that I'm playing with your insecurities.
Nobody cares what people hit on AS in BR or against the CPU. Frankly, I don't care either about whatever stats I accumulated with the state of play on AS.
Keep flushing though. Have a great day out there. I hope you have other areas in life to bring you joy. Asking strangers to look at each other's profiles online doesn't do it for me. You do you though.

Because you can't and you know it. You just talk a lot.

Because they're terrible and you know it.

And yet you took the effort to look up my real name. You say a lot of things and then act the exact opposite. You're blocked, I'm tired of you.

I read something somewhere I forgot, but it said that Albert Pujols would have maybe 4,000 hits if the shift didn’t exist.

True, but once again I have no issues with the shift in general. My issue is that the game helps players by putting on shifts automatically.

Same I wish it was manual and not automatic
