    Pci sizes are tiny, Balls seem faster , Timing windows seem broken , Am i missing anything?

    Lol……

    How can you post LOL then proceed to complain that you can't hit a sinker ? Probally while you play on all-star hmmm

    Yeah its ridiculous. With Outlier fastballs you literally have to swing when ball is in pitchers hand. I take losses just to stay under 700.

    Ive noticed some of the youtubers who usually crack balls at legend are even struggling on all-star battle royale or events so i dont believe its me thats got worse at hitting i think the gamestate is just bad atm

    For myself, a good/not great player, I like the game on HOF. I can hit enough to win the majority of the time. But it's also a challenge. Legend, however, is extremely tough but I usually enjoy the challenge. It certainly makes HOF seem much easier.

    I would love all-star if you couldn’t foul off every pitch regardless if they are in the dirt or in the other batters box.

    Yea this is just nuts, just lost 1-0 while I only had one hit. The pci is just barely bigger than the ball and I can't time one up to save my life either. My hats off to anybody who can consistently put decent contact on the ball on this difficulty.

    I made it to 879 today winning against Cabrera and Degrom every game (which is incredibly frustrating to say the least). The problem is they have all been snoozefest 2-1 games with 20 strikeouts aside. HOF literally sucks to play on right now. Last year HOF was the move but this year it is terrible. I lost my next two btw both 1 to 0 so back at 830. I want to make world series so bad, but cant handle these shiity games

    hof/legend are really fun for me but man they are a huge step up from the dinger fest that is all star, I can hit most pitchers except for a few on HOF and playing on legend just makes HOF seem like a joke

    ranked seasons is basically a degrom/cabrera simulator

    As a seasoned AS veteran I made it to around 680 the other day. I normally manipulate the search bar so it stays under 700 but given I was so close I just let it ride.

    I ended up matching someone on Legend. He had Marquez and I started with Alex Reyes.

    I went 2-0 up in the first (I couldn’t quite believe it)

    I went perfect through 4 with Reyes and sensed he was getting annoyed. So I brought in De Grom to try and make him quit. Another scoreless inning in the 5th and he then tried to friendly me. Then he quit.

    So an AS player beat someone in WS (who was around 905 so only just) on legend.

    One thing I will say. It was really nice to actually get strike outs without constant foul balls and to be fair the guy kept using normal swing as did I.

    It was a horrible game.

    It’s a video game. I want to play 8-5 games. I don’t want 1-0/2-1 games that take 45-60 minutes. It’s no fun.

    I’m now at 730 or so. And when I get home later I will lose to get back to 500. I have no interest in playing HoF not alone legend.

    Only the proper elite players have slug fests on HoF.

    This game is literal aids online I can score 10+ on HOF offline and yet get 1 hit on online allstar it makes no fkn sense. The programmers at SDS are truly the worst programmers in all of the industry How SDS has made it this far with the bottom of the barrell that it hires is truly magical but anybody that says online is decent should go see a psychiatrist No other game exudes the aids like this game online. Just a miserable experience..

    Hate to admit it but I’m doing the same this year. This game just plays too inconsistently to even sweat out games on HOF. I’ll play some ranked and BR on A.S. when I need my fix and move on to other games as well.

    Those people you speak of is a very small minority. Don’t feel bad as most who play this game can’t do it either.
