    There are many more out there using a Cronus Zen then we could think or imagine or be aware of.

    MLBTS 21 is the most difficult year I have ever played within On-Line Levels of AS & HOF. I'm really starting to think & wonder if SDS developers really does NOT deserve so much credit with making the game harder On-Line with the changes & twaeking they did from MLBTS 20 & 19. And if it's really due to so many more out there using a Cronus Zen.

    I really have not heard anyone mentioning this or asking about this. Maybe because they are using a Cronus Zen themselves & does NOT want to RISK outing themselves. LMAO

    What do you guys think ?????

    It's a device that can repeat movements, so in theory with pinpoint pitching it could make them get perfect pitches everytime. People like to say it helps with hitting to, but I've never seen any proof it works with anything outside of batting practice.

    Oh gotcha, yikes. Thanks for breaking it down. Being a newbie is fun but man I'm out of the loop.

    So, essentially the OP is saying that guys online at higher levels can repeat their perfect pitch as soon as they make it and put the ball in the exact same location or could they move it around? Sounds fishy. Let's say they got me at the knees on the inside corner and then repeated that, I could cheat in, If I figured it out right? I'm sure it's still tough to barrel a ball in the perfect spot.

    They could move the pitch around, the device is merely copying the pinpoint part of it, which since no matter where you put it you are doing the same motion, it never changes.

    However, while I do think some people use it, I don't think it's a widespread thing as he' s making it out to be. Often people use it as an excuse on why they lost

    Oh yeah, that changes things. That would make it extremely difficult and since I can't hit online as it is, please anyone out there considering this, take pity on a beginner.

    Honestly I don't even understand why people would bother paying the $100 or whatever to get the cronus zen and then getting the script for it. I dot perfectly fine without it. Pinpoint isn't hard.

    From what I researced online about Cronus Zen. The device itself cost $100. However the Cheat Mods for it are FREE & it has Cheat Mods for many of the most popular online games Like Call of Duty, Warone & Star Wars Battlefront just to name a few I seen listed. So someone who does play most of those games & as well including MLBTS, then that $100 cost easliy becomes less of an investment. I wouldn't get a Cronus Zen because I am someone thats desires winning on my iwn merits with how the game is originally programed & within the settings it offers. Using a Cheat code or Cheat Mod will never make me a better player. It only gives me a crutch to depend on & makes me a cheater no matter what. But there are those gamers out there that winning is everything & means most to them & will use any means to win anyway they can so they can brag about being WS top ranking player or a multiple time 12-0 BR winner. Game play online this year just feels so much harder then its ever been before. I just think its the Cronus Zen being used by more gamers then what we are aware of. From the research I did on it. You can configure the settings so that it gives you close to PERFECT each time rather than always PERFECT each time so you could mask that you are using it.

    I honestly can’t judge whether its hard or not since lately hitting feels so riddled with RNG its hard to tell where skill begins and ends IMO.

    Are people using the Cronus Zen for this game?, probably, but thats just gaming these days.

    I just bought the new version a few days ago and have so far only played on the 'March to October' mode. The thing I noticed is they really made it a lot harder to check swing than the previous version. I suspect the new setting on check swing are more like it was a few versions back. I think they had been making it easier to check swing for people whose reaction time made it difficult to avoid 'junk' outside the strike zone. Now they just increased the difficulty back to where it was. So those of us with slower reaction times will get totally exposed. Well I guess the higher skilled players got what they wanted.
