What does HOF difficulty change?
-
Yeah there is def. a huge jump in pitch speeds. Coming from a World Series player who uses a monitor.
-
Pitch speeds, PCI and timing window. While hitting is more of a challenge it does somehow feel better (to me anyway).
-
Timing windows is where you'll notice it the most. You have to be much more precise with hitting and won't get as much flukey stuff going for either team. HOF is heaven.

You won't notice a huge difference with pitch speeds, but the PCI will be very obvious. For a lot of people (including me), playing on HOF is a more enjoyable experience, and the game seems to work best at this difficulty level.
I get the sense that they designed it around HOF.
I still thinks it’s mostly designed around LS players and plays a bit strange when 120 contact/power and 120 k/9 starts to come into play. If the attributes don’t make total sense how can the game?
If you were to play a friend Yankees vs Dodgers you’ll see lots of different hits, solid contact singles that drop before the RF, doubles that clear the outfield and hit the wall. In DD you have +100 power, that same single doesn’t drop and is a 108mph line out to RF, the double is a line drive HR, the juiced bloopers bloop in the outfield for doubles instead of the infield for groundouts.

I play on TV and it’s a nightmare facing Kluber every game! It’s better then pitching on all star though lol!

HOF= pitches coming in hot, small hitting window, basically a way better game.

Yeah, TV's won't get it done on all-star, let alone HOF. Get a $100 monitor when you have the extra cash, the picture quality is better too.

Maybe eventually...a TV can get it done on all-star but you are correct about HOF. Maybe I would play better than a lousy 20-23 ranked record lol

Does anyone know the actual amount the PCI decreases like a % wise ? Prime 1/2 are my first experiences on HOF and overall I’m enjoying it so much more than AS
-
I have learned that I don't have the reaction time for HOF... everything slows down when you're old, including reaction time. If someone can throw 100mph+ it gets blown by me every time. And yes I have a 1ms gaming monitor so can't blame a TV.

I think this is a big issue but unfortunately im not sure it has an easy solution. I love the team building aspect and everyone loves shiny new 99s but the game plays much better in online H2H than it does in DD because players have flaws in H2H and you can't get a lineup full of all around players and ace pitchers.
