    I know that not all perfect perfect in “ real baseball “ are hits homeruns doubles etc… however when you hit one with trout and it’s just a warning track flyball you get really annoyed, I mean he’s a 500k player, the pitcher had pitched 7 and 2/3rds gave up 4 runs and confidence was halfway in the blue… yet homeruns are hit when the ball isn’t in the “ power “ pci… makes zero sense! When I hit I I was like oh that’s for sure a homer, nope warning track…. It wasn’t a line drive it was a long deep fly ball that was pitched in the middle of the zone FYI I still won the game, win 7 on the season chasing that 40 lfg

    It all depends on where the ball was pitched and what type of pitch it was

    Oh yeah? Please tell me the magical pitch/pitch location combos that yield only warning track fly balls….

    Let me guess, hit to dead center field with a 400+ foot center field wall?

    The game is strictly RNG after making contact. It is what it is don’t try and understand outcomes because sometimes they just don’t make sense. SDS probably needs to revamp the entire hitting engine. I think most people just want consistency and if SDS would be more transparent about pitching stats and how they affect the game I think we’d be more understanding. PCI needs to be consistent. If SDS just came out and made all balls in the lower half of the PCI be ground balls 100% of the time and Lower middle be grounders with a chance of being hard liners it would make the game better bc at least things would be consistent. I do think pitch types and locations definitely do play a role in outcomes but to what extent is impossible to tell.

    I’d say about 10% of my perfects are hit for a homer. Most are line drives caught by the infield

    I’d say about 15% of my just early, pci not near the balls go for home runs 😂

    Listen I know we like this game for realism. But a perfect perfect hit is a video game thing. And therefore should result in at least a single IMO.

    Just to touch on my first post. RNG doesn’t make this game bad. It’s a baseball game. The most random professional sport. There has to be some sort of RNG other wise some games would never end especially on all-star. The better PCI placement the better chance of a good RNG dice roll. The better player wins 90% of games with those few odd ball games being the exception and what causes 100% of angry posts on this forum lol.

    Yeah RNG isn't inherently bad but SDS seem to have their result tables or pools or whatever messed up.

    Like foul balls should probably never be in any P/P result pools.

    The ball also doesn't seem to hook and slice off the bat as much as previous years, I only see that spin when I hit balls just foul in 21. So they need to add those curved hits back into the hit pools.

    A few years back on streams SDS would always be tweaking with gameplay and talking about more hit variety and so on. They stopped doing it. Wonder when the last time was they checked these RNG hit pools? They need to be refreshed and have some entries added and removed.

    Last year it seemed like perfect perfect worked as intended. This year, I swear to god, i feel like 90% of my perfect perfect are outs. It seems broken this year

    I played some dbag from the first page in the WS rankings last night and he had 15 hits and 13 runs on HOF difficulty against Al Leiter. Just seemed fishy to me how he blistered every single pitch and never hit one hard for a double play or a line drive at the center fielder.

    I’ve played this game a lot and something felt off.

    100% agree. Like I said I think it requires a complete hitting engine revamp and I think maybe that’s what we see in next years iteration of the game. Covid shouldn’t be as big of an issue and they can focus next years game strictly on new consoles. They had to get this game ready and playable on 4 different consoles on 2 different generations, while battling Covid. The game is good this year considering all of that.

    I watched a couple zen controller YouTube videos and it makes a lot of sense these guys are probably using it. Looks like it just assists with squaring the pci to the ball….put that in the hands of someone that is already good at the game and it would explain ridiculous results.
