All-Star should be the only difficulty for all online content

This is a terrible idea. All star is the worst game play. I rather play on rookie or legend than all star
-
No thanks. I’m not looking for games where guys can mash homers 10 feet out of the strike zone.

i'm happy with HOF

I sort of agree with OP. I think there should be casual online ranked seasons and competitive online ranked seasons. Competitive gets better rewards but Casual can get rewards as well and both count for the online grind. Sometimes I just want to watch TV and play (like you can in the current event) but other times I am completely locked in and trying hard. Competitive has two levels HoF and Legend, Casual plays up to Allstar.

A difficultly between All Star and HOF would be nice.
Or simply make two ranked seasons. One Veteran and Allstar and the other HOF and Legend
Nobody even the top 1% would choose HOF LEG to grind when they can smack kids around in Allstar

Good luck pitching on Allstar at times it can be impossible to get good players out that PCI size with 99 players is child’s play .

This is just not true. You can check my game logs for the event with common pitchers and I do just fine. Yeah sometimes I get lit up but it is because I get cocky and complacent with my location. I am not bragging, I would be willing to bet that there are a ton of players that do just a good if not better.

Yeah I also can understand people who don’t like jumping between different hitting difficulty over and over again because of the timing , Allstar-HOF are so different.

Bro it’s a Event I’m sure they mess with sliders . take a common pitcher to Rank season see how you do if you think a good player won’t lit him up on Allstar then lol .

HOF is the sweet spot

Can't do that, I play on HoF/Legend and highly doubt they adjust sliders online. Want to play one? I'll use a common pitcher and you use your god squad. We will play on allstar. I am not saying I am going to win but I'd be willing to bet I can strike out a handful of your players and limit your runs. lol

No way. It isnt a level playing field at all once you learn how to hit on Legend, if 2 legend players played on AS i wouldnt be surprised if the game was 30-28.

Very popular opinion: “All star sucks”
It generally sucks because of the endless ability to foul off balls. Reduce the success rate on foul balls by 30% and it probably becomes the best difficulty in the game right now with the contact swing nerf that just took place.
That said, for WS and consistent CS caliber players then AS would be torture for us and them. The reality is the game is just too easy on AS, regardless of foul ball success/contact swing nerf, for these players. They can and do hit almost everything in the zone and have too good of an eye to swing at pitches barely outside the zone.
AS is better with the contact swing nerf. I no longer cringe with every pitch I throw in AS. HOF difficulty might play more consistently but it's boring AF having 1 or 2 run games that go into extras. For true WS and HOF goons, then HOF difficulty plays best. For us AS and fringe HOF players it's absolute torture.
For the record, I consider myself an AS caliber player even though I have made HOF the past two seasons with my highest rating being 799. I think I am 23 or so games above 500 as well. My best ever in that regard.

That's simply not true for the majority of the player base. It's definitely true for WS and CS caliber players but definitely not for the player base that's consistently between 600-750.

All star is terrible. The dumbest hits happen on All Star. You can literally have late/early hits all game long where the PCI doesnt touch the ball and its terribly frustrating. My opponents will have 15 strike outs with 8 hits that have no business being hits, and score freaking 5 runs or something dumb. I almost think being off on the PCI sometimes will get better results during certain situations in game, than having good timing and decent PCI placement lol. HOF is definitely better as far as PCI placement and timing mattering alot more which I like. The only thing I dont like, is going back and forth from AS to HOF on ranked and the pitch timing. Once you get used to HOF speed, its not bad, but Id like if they made it with AS pitch speeds/timing window but PCI size and placement mattering like it does on HOF.
