MLB The Checkswing

Check swings don’t bother me nearly as much as early >>> late side of good.

While agree check swings are a huge issue the most of my check swings come while I'm the away team at a mlb Park and the lag is so awful a 92mph sinker looks 130 and my opponent throws high sinkers and high sliders the entire game.

10 pitches taken, 10 successful check swings. Too early on each and every one, selling out on the fastball like all the other kids. I almost lost this game too. This is a 100% issue that needs to be fixed next year.
Selling out on the fastball? That’s called a skill gap apparently. The earlier you can swing, the better player you are.
I actually played a 12-0 player in ranked yesterday. He was intentionally early on everything, im talking early on 102, early on offspeed. He hit an early home run with Kluber and a very early home run with Trout. I lost obviously.
Feels horrible to me the way you have to swing crazily out in front and then the feedback says you had good timing. I’ve hit perfect foul balls. It’s so broken
Same with pitching too. I had multiple times last night where my pitch was aimed for the strike zone, I had a good release, but it moves a foot or 2 either way and beans the guy. Soooooo bad.

Maybe 3 months ago you hit "perfect/perfect" foul balls. They patched that a long time ago. The issue was incorrect feedback, not a perfect swing on your part going foul.

I have found though, that players who tend to check swing at everything are completely fooled by breaking balls in the strike zone. Now... If only my perfect-release pitch would actually land in the strike zone...

You can still get them, it’s rare but it can happen still. A few ranked games showed I had perfect foul balls, figured it was just wrong feedback. Looked at my results and it’s possible, rare though.

I actually posted a clip here when Run It Back dropped showing that very thing. It was 1 month ago and it’s happened multiple times since, but I haven’t recorded it.

So maybe you can help me understand. Why does it feel like my check swings are extremely “loose” I feel like I’m getting called for a strike barely tapping X, but I can watch a guy check swing all day. I’ve noticed it more so earlier in the ball path to the plate if I tap X too soon, but... idk. Just not understanding I guess.

I’ve noticed early in games even curveballs are hit or miss on “good” analog pitching. Let me thumb work it, if I screw it up, let the game own me.

I have no clue, most of my check swings are called for strikes. Like 90% of them. Even when I barely even touch the button and I know 100% certain I checked it they call me for a strike. That makes it all the more frustrating when these guys get EVERY call.
