    PCI going from a normal swing to contact swing isn’t 3X the size either, that just a silly exaggeration. You’re full of it, period. Most of us are sick of seeing this complaint.

    Stop crying and just press O lol... Jesus that X button is so important to you. Who friggin cares

    The game is in a very rough spot. I can’t believe I’m saying this but it’s the worst it has ever been. My last game was a nail biter where I struck out my opponent a whopping 23 times. However, I still gave up 5 runs. Almost every time he touched the ball it was a home run. He’d get men on base with a strikeout passed ball, then launch the next pitch with a contact swing where his PCI was no where near the ball. I eventually beat him 7-5 and had several balls that were squared up in the middle of the PCI that resulted in weak fly balls. I don’t really know what to say about the state of the game. I’m not the greatest player in the world by a long shot but did go 12-0 twice last year and have been playing since ‘18. All Star is in the worst spot it’s ever been and contact swing is compounding the issues with gameplay. It’s a bummer considering it’s a game I love to play. Nothing groundbreaking here, and sounds like a lot of people are having the same problems, but it’s not fun when you are fearing you’ll lose to a player who literally can’t put the pci on the ball.

    I guess you can be a victim just like everyone else who complains about the contact swing. I’ll be proactive and learn to neutralize it. Oh wait I have learned how to neutralize it’s called pitching to weak contact. I guess mastering pinpoint pitching is worth something.

    Here you go, Nancy. Sukyaself. I didn't do the exact calculations so maybe it is only 2.9x but hey it could also be 3.1x you never know. I all know for sure is.... you look like a huge bag of D right now.

    That's terrible. How is that a hit? Not playing online till contact swing is addressed.

    Thank you for making my point kid!!! It’s not even close to 3X bigger hell it’s not even a quarter larger than normal swing. And you’re complaining about this!!! Gtfo, if you’re triggered by this then maybe you should seek professional help. IT A FLIPPING VIDEO GAME. If you’re not having fun stop playing and do something else. You’ve been complaining about this the whole year. It’s old, it’s not productive, and quite frankly makes you sound like a spoiled and entitled crybaby. Get over it!!! 🤦‍♂️

    It may not be 3x as large, but it’s a heck of a lot bigger than a quarter larger. You need to refer back to math and area of a circle if you can’t see the difference. It’s approximately 2X as big. Maybe someone else on here has the time and willingness to do an exact measurement. That’s assuming the pictures are the exact same size as well, otherwise it will be extremely difficult.

    Thanks for the lesson in geometry however you are incorrect about it being double the size. And the area of a circle can be determined using the formula A=(pi)(r squared).

    Yes, I know. I already answered my own question/post in a follow up posting where it wasn’t quite 2X the size, it was 1.7-1.75 times bigger.

    You’re once again wrong so stop embarrassing yourself. Please you crybabies who can’t handle this contact swing can do one of two things, accept it and move on or stop playing. It that simple so STFU stupid.

    Lol, I’m right (or at least very close to right), but thanks for playing. Unless you have some other information that disproves my answer, which is backed by math, I’ll stick with mine. And it’s only a matter of time before they correct the contact swinging mistake. I’m actually a little surprised it has taken them this long, tbh. Then we’ll finally see which of the CS can actually learn to hit with normal swing or just start hitting a lot of weaker balls. It’s coming, only a matter of time.

    Ok smart guy here is the math

    Image one has a radius .875. Square that radius gives you .77 multiply that by 3.14 gives you an area of 2.4

    Image 2 has a radius .75. Square that radius gives you .56 multiply that by 3.14 gives you an area of 1.77.

    The difference between the two is .73. Basically it’s a just under 3/4 the size of the normal swing or in your terms just under 1.5x the size. Yes you’re absolutely wrong and now I’m done arguing with your [censored]. Later kid

    Lmao, sure thing. I will give you credit for getting the math right, even if your measurements are bit off. You can stop arguing all you want, you’re still wrong. But even if you were right, if you don’t see anything wrong with a hitting area 1.5x the area with zero penalties to the batter, I don’t know how to fix that broken thought process. But you do you, peace…✌️

    These are just dumb posts ,, so one swing out of the 30 or 40 that game triggers people... Weird... What do people think contact swing should do?

    Contact swings should never yield 430 ft bombs, yet they do. Frequently too. that's the issue

    Sorry kid measurements were spot on. Actually used a measurement app on my phone to find the radius. After that it’s plug and play. I can do this all day.

    Yet you conveniently didn’t respond to the more important part of what I said about the contact circle and choose to get picky about the discrepancy in the difference between our results which was a relatively minor .2 difference. Pretty sad that you continue to defend the broken contact swing. You must be one of the poor saps who rely on it or any other design flaw(contact,bunting,etc) in the game to get by. But alas, this topic has more than run its course and your lack of actual insight on this matter bores me. Take care and I hope you learn to hit when they fix contact swing.

    Kid I’ve been playing this game longer than you all the way back to when it was still 989 sports. So please spare me your analytical insight especially when you’ve been wrong from the beginning. The circle is bigger however it makes it that much harder to square hence the contact swing as there is more area to cover because the circle is bigger. Contact swing is this years RNG. Next year what’s your complaint gonna be? Ooooh I got it catchers reaction times. If it’s not one thing it’s another. Btw I hit plenty well last year to the tune .320 and this year it’s almost .400 so try again kid. Oh and that’s not using your garbage contact swing. I only use normal swing.

    Pfft…Wrong?…Haha, ok. Whatever you need to tell yourself. Just because you think you’re right, doesn’t make it so. It has little to do with squaring up as HRs at the fringe of the larger circle are about as common as a normal swing. The only difference between the 2 is a larger circle, And though I’m not certain of this, it seems like the sweet spot is a little later get as well, but like I said, I’m not sure of that one.

    Anyway, we’ve dragged this nonsensical topic on long enough. You’re going to believe whatever you want to believe and I’m going to believe what I see and experience as well. So you enjoy your game your way and I’ll wait for the changes. Take it easy, “Kid”.

    I had given up 2 hits going into the 9th, checked box score after game, struck out 23 of 27 batters and somehow OP rattled off 5 hits and 5 runs in the 9th off my best arms. Even threw to 3B to get the out before OP scored 1 run to end the inning and it threw it not to 3B(SS covering) but the 3B standing at the mound. I will go get gud or something.
