I still wanna know if KT got a beat down for stealing dad's credit card!

This game has a steep learning curve. You just made an apology post and give it just a couple hours before changing your mind. Unless you have insanely ridiculous reaction time and hand eye coordination you aren't going to be great at the game a couple months into your first year playing.
If you want to give up and move onto another game that's your call but even tho it is flawed you will get better with practice and just time in the game so I would suck it up and push through but it's your call. -

Go ahead and flame me for it. I don’t care.
I’ve been trying so hard to improve at this game. It’s just not possible.
The roll of the dice
hitting is pure dog [censored]. The game basically decides if you’ll get a hit or not when it feels like it.Sweet come back engine. I love that.
Events are honestly the least fun I’ve ever had on a video game my entire life. It’s nothing but guys who take any pitch even a millimeter off the black and hammer anything inside. On top of facing DeGrom every [censored] game.
So glad this game was free (game pass) because honestly even spending a penny on it would’ve been a waste.
Hate to voice displeasure again on the forum but it’s the only outlet I have for this miserable excuse for a game. Will not be back next year I can say that.
I can't flame you, truth hurts. Game is playing horrid. 4 time WS player and dropped down to 400 because Legend and HOF is nothing but 120 mph pitches. Can't even react. Dropped down to 400 and still getting warping pitches. First game at 400 getting blown away by fastballs I am looking for because they just go hand to glove. Don't feel bad in the least tanking down. It is either that or not play at all. I have to guess pitches instead of reading and reacting which is what I should be able to do. I didn't have to guess when I was playing baseball but do in this game because SDS doesn't understand lag kills this game. Beginning to think it is their dog [censored] servers for most of the issues instead of the opponent's connection.
Don't get me started on the sinkers that haven't been fixed in years.

I’m a glass half full kind of guy. Wanted to believe so badly the game was good and it was just poor tv settings. Unfortunately it’s a bad game online and always will be.
It's not TV settings. I have ps5, monitor, great router, fiber internet, Most people aren't smart enough to see the lag or haven't played baseball and can't see the difference in the pitch speeds. I watch a ton of top streamers and their pitch speed on legend looks like my all star/hof speed most of the time. No wonder they hit .400. [censored] looks like slow pitch softball.
I literally have a few days to make WS during a season and during those days it is a breeze. Most days are a chore to hit on all star.

Well I just lost an elimination game in BR vs WS banner. It was 0-0 bottom of the 4th, I’m batting. I go to sub Mike Schmidt on 2nd with 99 speed Tim locastro. I get stuck in the substitution screen while he is pitching to my batter. I’m watching the count and hearing the strikes. My virtual batter works a 3-2 count (I am still in the substitution screen) then strikes out looking obviously because I couldn’t swing because I was in the substitution screen. I finally can get back to the game with a 1-2 count on my 2nd hitter.
Oh and I lost the first game because of a freeze off where I was up 2-0 in the top of the 3rd
Yeah the game is bad right now.
-
I won’t go into the OP praising and criticising within 2 hours. My own two cents.
I’ve noticed players with good animations seem to do better. For example. POTM Siemien has worse stats than Acuna. Yet I’m hitting 315 with Sinien and 180 with Acuna.
The only difference is I notice Simien after getting a ball in play seems to have some sort of Kris Bryant swing animation about him
The two biggest problems I have about this game
-
102mph fast balls. Even on AS. They’re too fast. [censored] that. It’s not enjoyable.
-
Timing windows. I have hit a P/P and then when the feedback shows at the start of the next pitch (after it went foul) says “just early”
Well. It clearly wasn’t just early. Was it. Or it wasn’t perfect. Gods sake.

You think a video of a video, streamed through a third party platform, and then to your computer screen is an exact copy of what the streamers see?
Interesting.

He always likes to claim that but I don’t believe it. I watch a few different Youtuber’s and all their pitch speeds look very hittable even on HoF and legend. I think it has to do with the capture and then whatever Youtube does to it when it uploads. And that doesn’t mean I think online is perfect because it’s far from it.

I have seen many pitches warp on Movie Gaming. Rarely on OhChev.
I would say most people's eyes are not trained to see the differences. They are very noticeable to me. I played baseball for 18 years at very high levels.

I will agree, the gameplay online has been the worst I've seen. From comebacks being almost obsolete cause the pitchers confidence determining what's a hit, popup, ground out, or fly out user input is very random no matter how precise your PCI is. The always say get better, how about get better at making this game. Stop using the pitcher to determine everything
-
This game online is totally dependent on the connection you have with your opponent. If it’s good, it’s playable. If it’s laggy, it’s unplayable. In my eyes, it’s a pretty simple equation. Peer to peer is simply not ideal for a baseball game where milliseconds have a huge influence on outcome.

Laggy is a problem all it's own. This game has a whole lot of other "issues" that aren't at all network related.

I keep playing because I don't care about wins and losses.
Just played a WS 12-0 banner guy in RS on HOF and made him quit after he was down 12-4. Amazing what I can do when I can actually read and react. Just earlier today I was getting blown away by fastballs on all star. No, I did not take an adderall or suck down some red bull. Why can't the game play like this all the time? It could with a little work from SDS.

This isn't an arcade baseball game. There is skill involved regardless of what others say. On a next gen it's super smooth, mo loading, free content..Great players..Excellent rewards..Can field a team of end gamers for free. Everyone plays straight up and this game is super next level. Gives yoy content all the way up to next season. I can go one. It's ur first year I presume. PRACTICE AND PATEINCE makes perfect. Dudes ne delusional.

I feel you to a point dude. Online play is very inconsistent. I don’t play it often if I’m being honest just because I’m not super good at the game , maybe have played a handful of online matches all season. If you don’t enjoy anything other than online this is exactly how you’ll end up. The game online plays differently from opponent to opponent so you’ll end up feeling good one game , and feeling terrible the next.
You’re entitled to your feelings and opinion of the game , but if you’re going to honestly say that the online PvP portion of the game is all that you enjoy about it then you’re going to have a love hate relationship with it. If you change your mind so be it. I have some helpful tips for hitting and pitching that you might not be aware of and would be glad to share with you. Good luck and hope you figure it out

Well buddy this is a video game. So if you are expecting it to match whatever “very high levels” you claim to have played in real life you are in for a rude awakening.
