I don’t think you guys are understanding the level of simple it would make zone hitting even on legend

There’s a reason shooter tournaments have console controller and mouse and keyboard separately.. it’s a huge advantage to use a mouse and keyboard

Make sure you move L3 before swinging; seems dumb but happens to me a lot if I don’t remind myself on those 98+ mph fastballs. I’ll often jam the stick at the same time I press X, and the feedback will show my PCI dead centre. You have to move your stick a microsecond before committing

They have incredible reflexes and hand eye coordination.
Here's a simple exercise to improve both.
hold paper money in your hand, value dont matter but a worn/used bill is better. hold it so that all your fingers are straight, now put the ridge of your hand (index finger/thumb) is on your forehead with index finger near your hairline.move your hand away so that your arm becomes straight(without changing height of your hand) when ready let the money go and try to catch it with your other hand( other arm should be at your side. try and get it before it drops below the level of your jaw.
This will improve both your reflexes and hand eye coordination.
Oh also best done in doors, wind is not your friend in this circumstance.Wow thanks man, Because of your amazing tip
you helped me develop a sick black eye lol. Nah I'm just kidding I didn't actually try this because I don't know if your being serious our trolling me. But if you are being serious can you send a link of somebody doing this before I try it, please and thank you. (BTW I may be dumb but I ain't stupid
)Its serious.when i was in my 20s i spent my decembers selling christmas trees, taking money from people sometimes was an adventure,my brother has his off days coming up so ill see if he can help me record something.im in my 40s now so my reflexes arent what they used to be, but it takes a lot to be able to catch falling paper out of the air.

For shooters yes, obviously. There is an entire screen where you can freely move the mouse around for pinpoint accuracy. Not to mention the recoil control to just pull the mouse slightly down.
Now back to this game, where you have to deal with this little box of the strike zone and on top of that the tight feeling PCI that automatically re-centers after every slight movement. It's a totally different world comparing this to shooters and I honestly believe a mouse would actually work counterproductive for this game.

I'd say it's not so much about the placement but more about recognizing the pitch type and location and then knowing the path the pitch will travel and where it'll end up in the zone. From there it's just subtlety with the thumb towards that location instead of slamming the PCI what so many people do. It's hard to explain because it's a feeling or a sense sort of speak that you develop by seeing a gazillion pitches and swinging at a gazillion more.
This is it 100%. I'm always in the right area for the pci but I can't stop jamming the stick all the way and I miss it. If I could ever stop doing that, I'd be a pretty good hitter in this game lol
I don’t use zone, but I think they should give you guys the option for the pci not to re-center itself when you let go of stick. I think that would keep a lot of you from slamming it down if it worked like that. For example, whatever spot you move it to, it stays until you move it.
If they did this ppl would be able to use a mouse and keyboard using an adapter and that would be terrible.
Why? Couldn’t they already do that if they wanted too?
No mouse and keyboard would not work in the show because of how the pci reverts back to the center— this stops mouse users from being able to use a mouse option because mice are free roam. So if you were to try mouse and key board with a game like the show. The pci wouldn’t move fluidly — it would jump and jitter
However if you took that spring back to the center movement away then mouse users would abuse the game. — imagine being able to point and aim a mouse as a pci on a ball? You’d have mnk players making top 10 in WS easily.
I wouldn’t care if someone used a mouse. They already do in plenty of other games. I think without adding the option to make it free roam you alienate a lot of people that would prefer that. Again, doesn’t effect me, but people that use zone should have the option.
Imagine taking a guy like rebel who already is the best player in the world hitting .400 and then giving him a mouse, dude would be hitting .800
Ok, so the best players are still the best players then, it isn't an unfair advantage, it can't be an advantage if everyone has access to it.
-
I am not good at hitting, but if they made it any easier, there would be guys who would make it to ws without ever playing past the 3rd inning in any game

Not being able to control the pci the way you want is ridiculous. Should be fixed for the people that use zone.

Yeah, I mean if people are going to worry so much about mouse users, then allow the rubber band effect to be turned off vs CPU.

Same for me. And my right thumb always seems to be faster than my left when I'm trying to go up in the zone. High Fastball, PCI doesn't move. At my Knees, PCI is as far down as it can go.

We should really get this message across to devs. I don’t even use zone, but I think it’s ridiculous you guys that do can’t adjust how you want it to work.

I am always for more customization and people being allowed to play the game the way they want, buy the competitive players do not tend to feel this way, they seemed to be concerned too much on how it is going to hurt them online.

Lol. Yeah I hear you, they seem to be worried that it could become too competitive for them.

You aren’t understanding it’s not “competitive” it is literally unfair. There are games that do not allow for mouse use because it is unfair. Mlb the show would absolutely be one of those games. Mouse use would destroy the competitive online.
Pointing and clicking at the ball?? Do you understand how game breaking that is?

Totally agree and would also like to add: if you initially choose a certain part of zone don't deviate from it. It's okay to take a strike in the zone, b/c if you chase it generally becomes a weak hit or double play due to reaction + location.

I understand that you don’t want people to customize their pci the way they want. Most people would still use a controller to play this game. As far as mouse vs controller, I own people on shooters with a controller when they have a mouse. Some of the best at shooters in the world use a controller. Yes, most use mouse, but I think it’s more of a psychological thing more than anything. They are used to what they are used to. It doesn’t destroy competition, it would enhance it. Again, I don’t use zone anyway, so I have an unbiased opinion on the matter.

Shooters are a whole different animal. Brah. You are talking about being able to point and click at an image coming in on your screen. Do realize how insanely easy that would be?? Forcing people to use a thumb for a pci is why it’s so hard. If I could point and click a mouse at the ball the difficulty dramatically decreases.
You know this. It’s why you are asking for it imo.

Lol. I don’t use zone, I use directional. You know this from all the conversations we have had. Don’t be worried that more people might be successful if they can customize their pci the way they want. No need for the “brah”. Let’s have a legitimate conversation like grown folks, shall we.
