Ranked at HOF is not really that fun…
-
HOF is the best difficulty to play on, just because you can't catch up to pitches and get your pci on the ball doesn't mean it's not fun you just have to play it more that's all. not trying to be a [censored] or anything but once you get the hang of HOF is extremely fun

I believe someone said it earlier but I feel like the best solution would be to keep pitch speeds the same across all divisions but decrease the size of the PCI as you go up in rank.
Agree completely!!!

You’re outnumbered bro. For every person that says HOF is great, there are ten that say it sucks!! I’ve played numerous games on HOF and have won a few! None of them were any fun at all even the games I won!! I, and many others, play this game cuz we love baseball and wanna have fun. I’m 46 years old. This is the ONLY game I own. I don’t have lightning quick reflexes. I have NO DESIRE to put in the kind of time it would take for me to really good on HOF. Screw that!!!

Everyone just thinks that they should score 5-10 runs a game because of how they did in AS and lower. I feel like HoF is about as close to a real baseball simulation as it can be. The pitchers in The Show currently (Oswalt, Cabrera, Glavine, Maddox, etc) are equivalent to real life deGrom with Spider Tack, results wise. The best hitters in baseball are only getting 1 hit every 4-5 ABs vs him over their career. Put all those guys on one team and you'll be lucky to surpass 6-7 hits. Then you add in the lack of plate discipline that a lot of The Show players have and you are looking at 2-4 hits a game on average. So unless they get lucky on a couple, they are getting shut out game after game.

Then you’d have scrubs complaining it’s too fast and the good players complaining it’s too slow. HOF is way too easy for players that are playing on legend consistently
WTF wants to play on legend consistently??? F THAT!!! That’s for kids that don’t go outside or the ones addicted to amphetamines! Lol

Yeah I agree! I played a couple games on HOF yesterday after being on AS most of this month. Such a big adjustment from one to the other. Its ridiculous RS should all be the same difficulty. HOF FOR ALL!
This will never happen. That would alienate way too many people. I made 974 last season and now I can't make contact on HOF or legend. Pitches look like they are 120. If you sell out for that and swing as soon as it leaves the pitchers hand you look like an idiot. The lag when swinging at pitches is way worse the last week.
If this is happening to me imagine 4-500 rated players trying to hit HOF. There wouldn't be many people playing this game. Has to be something on SDS end. Wonder if there is any correlation with these trash servers. Game getting frustrating this last week. I play to have fun. Ball instantly going from pitcher's hand to glove is not fun. May have to jump back on PUBG. I have tried rebooting router, wired, wireless. Something changed in the last week to make this game miserable. Game is doing the exact same thing it has been doing for 4 years recently. Nice while it lasted.
Well obviously you were only able to get to 974 because of your internet, world series players aren't actually there because of skill, they just have the internet advantage. They don't actually hit any better.

What about just expanding HOF from 600-999… WS starts at 900 still. The Legend players would get up there bc HOF is easy to them. People who enjoy playing on Legend is quite literally 1% or less of the player population. I don’t even think 1% is in WS right now. Most people stop playing once they get there bc they don’t like legend or they tank out to get back to HOF. Feel like that could be the best solution bc right now HOF is too short lived as a difficulty for players that are good but not cracked out their mind. Which is the population I fall into lol @Exotic_Combs_PSN

until they fix contact swings there is no reason to play anything below HOF and this is coming from a online rated and custom league player. Contact swings on AS are absurd!

I got there on pitching. Not on hitting 120 mph pitches. My internet is a hindrance in this game.
Precisely why I haven't cared about my record since 17. More fun to drop down to all star and play with different cards than to play on legend/HOF and have zero reaction or recognition time. Lenend/HOF are not fun. Maybe it would be if I move to one of the coast. That seems to be where the majority of goons are. -

After facing Edward Cabrera on HOF…ugh
That card is fk nuts bro. Worst pitcher to face. Faced Oswalt for the first time on HOF last night and I couldn’t touch him.
As a Cabrera user, I will admit that he is completely unfair. I have yet to let up a run with him in 37.1 innings (4 CGSO), only 6 hits, 0 walks and 54 Ks. His sinker is nearly unhittable on HoF, not quite to Legend but hopefully I am riding on the back of him and Oswalt to WS.
Yea it’s beginning to be no fun going against him and Crochett. My Cabrera in 25 innings has 1.04 ERA with 50ks. Nuts

HoF is on some roids im telling sds did a secret nerf on HoF

Bottom line is I want 95 to look the same every time I play. Not like a marble shot out of cannon one week and a beach ball the next. However, I will do what I need to do in order to make the game fun. Game hasn't been fun the last week with warping pitch speeds. I'll either tank back down to all star and try different cards or maybe start a franchise. I'm pretty sure I would hit better with the Royals on legend in Franchise mode than I do with a top tier squad in RS on HOF/Legend. I'll adapt, been doing it for the majority of my DD time.

DD HOF plays differently than with regular players and teams. Those 80+ per nines is DD are the issue.

I got up to 850 this season… trying like hell to either hit 900 or get 40 wins (currently at 31)… but anyone throwing 102 with pinpoint on HOF is a 1-0 2-1 Batting average killer. My team era is 2.25, but so is my batting average now… .225. It’s just not fun. However I did tweak some PCI stuff and had 9 and 11 hits my last 2 game and won handedly. So maybe there is hope next season to get to 900. But I’m on vacation next week so my focus is 9 more wins (don’t even care if I go 9-9, and then chill out on ranked seasons and play more BR, which has been the most fun online aspect for me this year.
