    First year...100% pinpoint. Takes a game or two to get down and then it is smooth sailing. Much better control and stamina...at this point I really am surprised everyone isn't using pinpoint, because there are significant advantages to the other methods. But I also get using what a person likes. I use the cards I like...not what some streamer says I should use or what card has the best attributes. It is important to use what you like and is fun.

    I've been using pulse for years. It's a relaxable pitch style.

    I like it. Yeah its not super hard, but when that pulse hits, I know i did my job!

    Its my first year playing, and so far i've completed a bunch, halfway done w/ mookie series. I'd rather feel more comfortable then trying crazy things

    Wait. Is the default setting for pitching called "classic"?

    And if so, it must suck hard because I've never heard a single person using it.

    I started a couple months ago and never changed any pitching setting.

    Im actually reasonably competitive online with this so I cant imagine how much better i could be if i changed to a better pitching method.

    I think Default is either meter or pulse........I can't even remember

    I used to be meter and directional. This is the first MLB game for me in a couple years and by the beginning of June I started sticking with Pin Point and zone.

    I can’t imagine not using PP now.

    No I just double checked. I've definitely been using Classic. I didn't know any better at first.

    I think I'll try Meter now. PPP just seems too difficult. I favor fun over serious competition.

    Which is why I'll never buy a monitor.
    I prefer to relax in my recliner with my gaming projector on my 120 inch screen.

    I now know I'm at least good enough to complete every BR program, which is fine. I'll never make RS World Series or go 12-0 Flawless. But that's cool.

    I've used PULSE last 5 years.

    It's a good balance between user input and pitcher rating.

    I loved MLB2K Pinpoint but can't seem to get it down on THE SHOW.
