    I play mostly with Phillies, I don’t load my lineup with every top rated player. I enjoy playing with cards I like rather than simply the highest rated card, so yeah maybe it’s a little harder getting hits with Rhys Hoskins rather than Jo Adell. It’s just not fun to me to rake all game, I’d rather a challenge than hang 7 runs with 5 homers, just doesn’t feel real to me.

    regardless of who you have, your record is extremely poor to be speaking this way about hitting

    for example - i don't consider myself an excellent player at all - my team is all earned and my BA is the same as yours except i'm 35-12 - i don't think hitting is easy at all otherwise i'd be hitting over .300

    I would disagree that my record is ‘extremely poor’, let’s save that for the 14-30 guy. I merely expressed my opinion about hitting and that I feel as though it is not challenging enough, the team with the best avg in baseball last year was the Astros at .270. .300 is an arcade number that I really have no aspiration for in the style of game I play.
    I’ve chased the best hitters the last several years and made World Series and such but always found I have more fun playing with players I like rather than the best attributes. If you think a guy with 75 contact is the same as someone with 122 than I’ve got nothing to say to that. You’re welcome to think hitting is challenging using every 99ovr you can have in your lineup I just don’t agree. Also pitching is wildly frustrating with the inconsistencies and lack of a real strike zone (clear strikes on the edges called for balls).

    The Astros may have hit .270 last year, but they didn't have hall of famers in their prime at every position. There is no reason why the average in a fantasy baseball video game should be constrained to what a team had in the majors last year.

    If you're playing with mostly Phillies, you have a .248 average, and you're complaining that hitting is too easy... do you want to hit .180? What exactly is your goal here? It seems like what you really want is for your opponents to have averages as low as you while they're using 99's up and down their line up.

    You're not wrong about the hitting being screwy with poor placement resulting in a hit too often, and great placement being a lineout/flyout too often. That is a matter of RNG though, not hitting difficulty.

    buddy i am not trying to fight with you i think we all have different expectations of what "good" is, or "excellent" constitutes. that's all.

    300 is not "arcade" though, as many players in real life hit 300 on a season - it marks terrific performance

    you and I have a similar BA, it's around .250 in RS , most of which on AS games. nothing spectacular at all. you know what i mean?

    i win based on my pitching - yes sometimes frustrating but overall you can be a deadly pitcher if you think smart - i have plenty of RS pitchers sub 1 ERA after tons of IP

But if you're going to say something is too easy, you should probably be very good at it first, at the risk of being called out on it.

    I can't speak for online because I haven't put the time in , but I can speak for franchise offline, YES the hitting is too easy.... Even on Legend level it just isn't the challenge it should be... CPU pitchers also walk way too may batters, more than I've ever seen in any other version... Game needs some balance tweaks, better more accurate pitching when you hit the spots, and hitting being a little toned down, more realistic....

    Not defending OP at all, but this argument doesnt work here lol. MLB teams also arent facing HoF pitchers all the time, not to mention fake ones that havent thrown a MLB pitch yet in most cases.

    But yes, being a video game the avg player will have a better BA than MLB teams that is true. I would say a solid avg is .275-.300. The elite guys are in the high .300's. Really good players in between.

    I think hitting is ok, but way to many foul tips. Shouldn't be so many long battles when guys are fouling off pitches in the dirt and those 2 feet above zone. Pitching is worse. If it ain't perfect feedback, it's a meatball dead center

    Hey man no disrespect you need to play on HOF or legend. Playing on any difficulty don't count. So for sure you play on alot of all star and veteran difficulty. Whenever you comfortable doing so.

    @whitejw98 said in Hitting is way to easy:

    If hitting I'd too easy for you, blame the community.. After more than a month of nonstop whining, SDS finally caved and gave them what they wanted. It was really awesome seeing everyone united in appreciation after the developers listened to feedback and addressed their complaints. Oh wait that's not what happened. Everyone just moved on and found something different to whine about.

    As usual..Its the usual suspects as well..Add in some more sheeple players/ community followers who probably do not know the actual game of baseball and its nuances who just follow the some cry baby delusional entitled and SDS keeps the game close for them. Add to that entitlement aspect for Billy Boy and his beastie Chad who get harrased in school and will be a future PD officer dishing out his entitlement 🤣🤣 (JK kinda)..Echo that sentiment I read about the whining over nonsense or something that actually works well but they are last pick on the court type of players again a bunch are entitled (Good # of rage quits)..Been a minute since I read a good "buy stubs & players thats why I get smacked!" This year more so, those free cards are beasts. Plus if they grinded there's a lot of stubs out there..

    That’s really my post, it’s gotten so dumbed down that you can launch a well spotted fastball with mediocre bat placement out of the yard with Jackie Robinson. I can’t believe people like it being so simple but maybe I’m in the minority of wanting a challenge and not homerun derby.

    I am really sorry you have to go through this. It's just not right.

    If you want to make it a thing, that's cool. 9 innings. Legend difficulty. Nothing stupid like rain or quick counts or balks. Send it. I'll be on tomorrow at 7:30 PST.

    I like it, I’ll send it tonight. Agreed no bs type stuff. No Shippett. (My only request).
