99 MPH Cutters

HR with no PCI coverageThis is game is broken trash. And every update makes it worse. Just about need a big league contract to even hit above 799 in Ranked Season. You’re getting more and more out of control with these super pitchers every year. Corbin Burnes couldn’t touch 98 on his best day, yet he’s throwing a 98 mph cutter with a 82 mph slider. It’s laughable. 102 looks like 202 with the boosted pitch speed settings. Game isn’t even enjoyable anymore unless it’s your pro streamer who plays 24/7. Oh and now you have hackers on your servers using boosting software to make perfect perfect swings and pitch release now. So there’s that too. get your [censored] together SDS
Honestly though man if you can get into the World Series level and adjust to the pitch speeds it is actually really enjoyable. It is really a chess match and you can feel if a pitcher is cruising and when the wheels fall off for them.
It is definitely not easy though and the game is absolute poo on the lower difficulties.

I found online play to be really enjoyable early on when teams were full of 85-90 players and not all 90+. To me the game just doesn't play as well when both teams are god squads. I played an RS game last night that was excruciating, then jumped into the LS event which was much more fun and balanced.

HR with no PCI coverage"Corbin Burnes couldn’t touch 98 on his best day, yet he’s throwing a 98 mph cutter with a 82 mph slider."
POTM Stats - Sinker(95mph), Cutter(95mph), Slider(87mph), Changeup(88mph), Curveball(81mph)
Actual 2021 Stats: Sinker(96.7mph), Cutter(95.3mph), Slider(87.2mph), Changeup(90.6mph), Curveball(81.5mph)
(source)
I'd say that is pretty [censored] accurate! Not sure if you know how averages work but to have an average of 96.7 he most likely touches 98 from time to time.

I think we can all agree that there needs to be a closer consensus on this game. I think with this iteration of the game, SDS Further separated the middle ground. I think there are way more people who either love the game or hate the game this year than ever have been. There are no clear ways to absolutely fix everything, so I’m not sure how we get back to more of a median that this is a great game with a few flaws that we can all live with.

I have never seen a Perfect/Perfect pop up...deep warning track outs with low power players, yes. But good job lying

A couple of years ago there was no perfect/perfect. Just good/good that you would get pop ups and no home runs on. So SDS introduced perfect/perfect as well as good/good. Perfect/perfect was supposed to be at the very least a base hit. But they just pulled the classic bait and switch. Same [censored] they just call it something different. SDS are truly disgusting as far as a gaming company goes. They just lie to cover up thier inability to properly code a baseball game. More poeple need to get up in there [censored] constantly...like to the point of harassment...but not quite.
At no point was perfect/perfect ever supposed to at least always be a hit. They were very clear with that from the beginning. There are so many legitimate things to point to in criticizing SDS, but it seems most people want to either stretch the truth or straight up lie because I guess if they don't they feel their point isn't valid enough?
This is correct. SDS has posted that p/p can result in outs and there is a percentage breakdown. People can watch this posted by SDS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RWYlZKJVUc&t=991s . Go to 16:36. Perfect/Perfect result in a .860 batting average, which means 14% will be outs. So theoretically you could have a game where your perfect/perfect are 50% outs on 8 perfect/perfect and the next two games perfect/perfect results in 0% outs. Of course everyone will remember how half of their perfect/perfects are outs.
I don't think the game has perfect mechanics and sometimes the PCI feedback confuses me.

How is contact swinging ruining the game? Ichiro is literally a HOF player and a does nothing but "contact" swing

Actually Corbin Burnes touches 98 with his cutter fairly regularly!!!!

I watched Ichiro for many years and him taking bp. He doesn't hit 450 ft. bombs slapping the ball. His swing is different when he pulls the ball.

If there is one thing I know for sure, it's that next year at this time The Show 22 will be the worst version of the game. And then 23. And then 24. Some people are just never happy and every single year there are people on here bitching about how "broken" the game is. The game is fine. Enjoy it instead of looking for things to get mad about.

I've still ever seen a p/p pop up or anyone ever providing a video of such occurrence, so if you are lying or over exaggerating about that, it's hard to take anything else seriously
I haven't seen that, but plenty of PP fouls this year. I only had PP flyballs with 100+ power dying at the warning track last year.
This year, nearly all PP flyballs I hit are homeruns, even with 70-80 power hitters.
IMO P/P fly balls have a minimum distance of 400 feet. So if you fly out to like CF a P/P swing is much more likely to not be a HR. Not sure I've seen any P/P fly balls to RF/LF not be home runs.

Then you’ve never hit with Roberto Alomar

I can't recall of any P/P fly ball that didn't go out unless it was to an area of the field that was 400+ feet. So that could be LCF/RCF

Same, never any LF/RF PP's not being homeruns.
I loved it last year. Doing a conquest game on Veteran of all difficulities. POTM Tatis 125 power, barely hitting over CF at Yankee stadium (almost robbed) on a PP flyball. Next batter, MVP Trout, same hit and dies at the warning track. Just no excuse for that stuff.

Pinpoint is not OP. There are more people using zen than people think. I am really good with pinpoint and could only hit the strike zone line a few times with Maddux who has 99 control and I was trying with perfect pitches. Maybe 4 times in 3 innings or so. Yet, people can dot this with less than 80 control constantly including Chapman and his stellar 40 control. Zen is a problem.

I hit the line all the time and I wouldn't say I'm an expert at it.

Oh yeah the mythical 450 ft bombs everytime you use a contact swing. You are wrong and there is nothing wrong with contact swings
