Bahahah amazing. Glad I didn't buy 20. [censored] SDS!
Your not missing out on anything. If this keeps up, this will be the worst year of this game yet.
Kinda interesting they changed it on the very day little Billy bought the game. Shows you right there where their priorities are.

I love that the game has never had as high of a skill gap as it does now, yet people think SDS is pandering to those of no skill...
Pitch speeds are fast, PCIs are small, and bad pci placement is not rewarded.
Maybe you all aren’t near as good as you thought you were.

Is this an inside joke?

The whole point is that good input is not really rewarded either. It’s just a battle of who hangs the first/most curveballs.

The games hitting was perfect at launch this is what I’m saying, it makes me question what game you have been playing
With a good okay here and a perfect release missed, what leads you to still be a SDS apologist?

Maybe all the people complaining are actually little billys.

Bingo. This game plays like garbage but the idea that it helps “little billy” is absolutely crazy. Everyone gets screwed by the game just the same

At release we had a brilliant game ‘twas truly a joy, nothing could get in the way of our grinding oh boy
The hitting engine was rewarding user input which was key instead we should wonder why pitching felt a little wonky.
But hey, these are professionals and it’s a simple fix, nothing SDS cannot nix
Day after Early access weekend...
A boy named billy had purchased the show and boy oh boy did he blow
Games would end over and over in slaughter and little Billy’s eyes started to water
I hate this game daddy it’s broken and trash, we need a patch ASAP so do something brash.
Billy’s daddy worked so hard he almost forgot his name, but he had to program a way to keep little billy in the game
Son I’ve done it patch 1.04 is here, You won’t recognize the game to be clear
But it will be fun for you with plenty of cheese,
Just how you like it billy with plenty of easeRandom and fake the skill gap is narrow, you’ll beat people you shouldn’t so sing little sparrow
Sing about how you’ve ruined a potential Amazing beautiful masterpiece of a game because you suck and I hate you so so so much.
I ran to my PS4 to play the game.Hoping all would be better since 2019 was lame.It started off fast and it was so much fun.Hitting dinger after dinger scoring run after run..SDS finally did it they made this game what we wanted then along came the 1st patch and ever since I been haunted.I don't know what happened it all became such a blur I started hanging curveballs and I couldn't dot my slurve.All of a sudden through all the commotion I couldn't hit the ball off speed pitches seemed to be in slow motion.The fastball was fast I couldn't catch up,my exo velo became slow like a dump truck.I couldn't believe what was happening in the game.I went from Bronx bombing to just being lame.My fielders we're miffed and all full of doubt they couldn't lock onto a ball or get anyone out.Error after error they just kept on booting they cost me a game what we're they doing?My baserunners on base absolutely had no clue they kept running and running even when I didn't want them to.I kept swinging away I kept getting rolled over I got so mad I broke my controller.I've had enough they lied to me once again they just wanted my money again and again.I thought this year it was gonna be the best but I was fed the same BS again by good ole greedy SDS..The End.

How can you even argue that when good timed balls in the PCI are constantly producing okay or popped up contact, while early/ ball under PCI is hitting bombs.

About 2 days away from Mantle my online record is 0-0 have only tried the free showdown, and 1 entry event won 6 games. Still have my free BR entry. All offline so far because last year was matched up vs Little Billy all the time. Practicing patience and just enjoying off-line so far. Grinding MTO.

Bad PCI placement is not rewarded??? Look at each of these hits and look at the feedback then come back and say the same thing.

I’m doing the same, no way I’m touching RS right now with how they tuned this game after early access weekend to cater to Billy. I am playing Online Rated though just to get my online fix. It’s just as bad, if not worse.

That’s an exaggeration. Actual good timing swings with center pci placement consistently puts out perfect/perfect or good/squared.
The “Good” timing label is so large that often swings that really aren’t good get labeled as so. That’s what is causing the okay contact to come into play.
For example, I’ve been jammed inside and the ball I hit goes straight to CF, yet that gets labeled as “good” timing. That’s actually terrible timing, yet others would take a screen shot and then go tweet it out to complain.
