    This game is bad on every level bro. Can’t even barely hit the ball. And yes it’s worse as you higher and higher.

    I’m an above average player I’d say, and hall of fame is just freaking ridiculous. I don’t think I’ve been in a game where one of the teams hasn’t struck out 15 or more times despite myself and my opponent contact swinging. I understand this isn’t a problem for top tier players but it just isn’t fun at all. It’d be easier to score by putting in 8 guys that have 90+ speed and just repeatedly bunt

    I couldn't disagree more. Yes the game has issues but All-Star is absolutely a nightmare. If you are striking out 15 times then you really need to practice because that is not my experience whatsoever and I am not top-tier. Gameplay is way better on Hall of Fame than it does on All Star and like I said in the past Legend is another breed

    I would agree with you every other year. But for some reason this year hall of fame feels different to me. Every pitcher has a sinker that forces me to decide what pitch I’m going to swing at before it’s even thrown. Then even when I do square the ball up it’s hardly ever a hit. I feel like at least on all-star if I get screwed by line outs I can always square it up again on the next pitch. I can’t say the same on hall of fame

    HoF is by far the most balanced mode of them all. All Star is a joke, legend is kinda extreme. HoF is just right

    If dudes can’t pitch in all star I’d say they don’t know how to pitch. Sure you’ll run into the occasional world beater that just hits everything. But I barely give up any runs in all star. Mean I wouldn’t want to face the top players on it but at 100 wins and most people can’t hit. Hell I can’t hit on it anymore. I’ll strike out twice in a game and slam the ball with good timing over and over to end up with 3 hits and a run and win 1-0. I literally just power swing vs a lefty with Soriano and hit the ball inside the pci with good swing for an easy can of corn.

    Another thing is, it feels fine in events and offline. It’s only in ranked that I’m having major issues. I just figured that ranked was a better representation of what the difficulty is supposed to be like

    Hate to break it to you, but if you strike out 15 times while contact swinging, you’re probably just an above average allstar player

    It’s almost impossible to strikeout people with great plate discipline using contact

    Look at my stats dude, I said me or my opponent because I did once

    That’s cool man. Was wondering what that was. Seen the BA and thought that doesn’t make much sense. Guess there’s alot of quits in online rated?

    Idk bro, what are we considering a top tier player? I do agree that if you’re striking out 15 times a game that practice is Probly in order. But there lies the problem. Back in ‘17, guys could make WS without “practicing”. I did it 5 times and never took one minute of BP. They’ve changed the game so much that I seriously doubt the average Joe can make WS without some sort of practice. Whether it be BP or just logging a lot of hours in RS. This catering to upper level players is gonna result in SDS losing the casual fan player base. I made it as high as 843 and that’s as good as it’s gonna get for me lol. I enjoy grinding programs and the occasional online game. I refuse to put in more time than I already do. I work 12 hours a day at the chemical plant.

    There isn't enough practice to prepare you for warping 110 mph pitches with zero time to read and react. Trust me I've tried. I take a ton of bp against the cpu on legend and can turn on 100 but get 93 blown by me in HOF.

    It’s incredibly hard to hit on hof. I’m terrible at it. I typically just sit sinker up and in, and I wait for that pitch. You know it’s coming eventually.
