@sauciestburrito_psn said in This isn't fun:
After I made world series a couple months ago I stopped playing ranked for a while so I went down to all-star difficulty. I just played my first game on hall of fame since they updated the pci movement and WOW. That was the most painfully boring experience of my life. Literally both pitchers had perfect games through 9 innings before I got disconnected. It's impossible to get good pci placement cause it moves so much. I will do everything in my power to never play another game above all star if this is how the game plays at hall of Fame and up.
translation: I took time off for a while, and forgot how hard it is to get use to something challenging again, rather then saying I couldnt hit, i blamed the PCI update. It takes a while to use to HOF again, I had that same philosophy of not playing on anything above all star a month ago, but after a while it came back again. Some games on HOF are like that. Pitching is just really good this year. I wouldnt give up on HOF if I were you.
I played a bunch of games on HOF and some on legend before the update, and could hit decently. Not one of them felt like this one. I don't play a lot of ranked and there's a million things I'd rather do than try and get good at hitting with a slip-n-slide pci while every game goes into extras tied 0-0. What a boring experience.
I mean, isnt HOF/Legend suppose to be hard? You took a break, sometimes taking a break you lose a step. Plus the player pool later in the year is usaully people who know what they are doing, so games can be harder.

Yes but it shouldn't be "both pitchers throw perfect games" hard. Plus the update in which they unintentionally made hitting harder. Pitching is just way too OP this year imo. They need to make pitching harder as the difficulty goes up too, not just hitting

I get it, The tough thing is, the top players walk through HOF, so if they made HOF any easier it would be a massive complain fest from the top part of the community. Which are the ones that complain the absolute most about people having fun.

It takes a few games to get used to it. It’s not that bad. Can’t just drop in from playing all star slow pitch softball with a tennis racket and expect to be great.

The real issue though is the connections influencing pitch speeds and timing windows. I can score double digit runs with 18 hits and then the next game can’t touch the ball in World Series games.
Well I can touch it, but to time it up and hit it fair is another story.

It is hard to get that practice unless you just play tons of ranked. If you play BR or Events you are stuck at All Star with no choice. Then with RS getting reset every season you get bumped down...sure if you play enough and get high enough you don't fall as much, but that goes back to having to play a lot of ranked. The gap between AS and HOF is probably not as big as it seems, but it feels like it because you really can't get that practice anywhere but in Ranked. Playing offline on Legend is not anything like facing a human at HOF.

That's true, problem is I don't play that much ranked and I don't wanna waste my time playing several mind numbingly boring games getting used to the new pci. It's a conundrum cause I'm better than most people at the all star level so I always end up winning my way to hall of fame and up, even though I don't wanna play there

I think HOF and Legend play similar. All-Star is a major step down difficulty wise. I can jump between legend and HOF pretty easily. You start at 700 which is HOF.
I actually love HOF difficulty. Seems like a great balance of timing windows, pci and pitch speed. It’s too bad it only lives in the 700-800 range of RS.

like 275-199, ALthough a lot of my losses have came from me tanking during seasons, I use to just try and make WS, but after the past couple seasons, i want both rewars, so i'd tank to bump up my win count, and hit 30 wins, then make WS.
