    Way to go SDS….more participation trophies this year I see.

    First online Battle Royale game and the guy has zero plate discipline, foul tipping balls off his feet and in the dirt.

    What’s the point of playing a baseball game if you don’t have to use plate discipline? Why not just make your main game mode Homerun Derby to please children and uncoordinated fat dudes?

    Pretty disappointing considering the hitting mechanics feel much improved.

    I’m pretty sure there is some algorithm that boosts hitters after several foul tips on horrid swings. Nothing like rewarding poor gameplay.

    Maybe considering it's a tech test to figure stuff like this out try giving some constructive criticism on specific area that can improve so that hopefully it can be improved instead of coming on here and just crying like a baby.
    "You're unfinished product isn't absolutely perfect! Wah!!!" That's you

    It’s built into the engine. It is not a simple tweak from testing.

    I will be dissatisfied with the state of the game if I choose. It is an idiotic aspect of the gameplay and there is no point in sugar coating it. You have made it abundantly clear that you are not interested in the truth.

    So someone has a serious complaint about foul tips and you decide to go through everything he said to get the last laugh pathetic.

    You should know what you're talking about before butting into something you know nothing about. I didn't have to go through everything he said, months after an argument on the forums this guy randomly decided to make a thread to attack me. His post here had nothing close to constructive criticism it was just whining. If he had actual criticisms or something to suggest as a fix or any thought in the post I would've just scrolled right by.

    Alright BR being on all star difficulty allowing people to swing freely and get a foul tip everytime isn't an issue? The outer PCI could use a rework.

    I never said it wasn't a problem, I said he was just whining with no sort of input towards any sort of fix and then he claimed it couldn't be fixed. You on the other hand at least have an idea that they could do something about the outer PCI. Like I said, if it was constructive criticism or had any sort of suggestion towards a fix I would've just scrolled by

    So what you're saying is, the range of the PCI is too big and players with poor swing discipline can still make contact on balls out of the zone?

    I agree that the outer PCI leads to way too many foul balls, especially at AS. Was one of the first things I noticed in BR as well. Feels very much the same as 21 in this regard. I have played two BR games and I think opponents have one hit off me…yet I only have 5 k’s. I am not great by any means, but have pitched well enough that I should have more K’s. Both players swung at everything.

    Yeah I was really hoping they change that aspect of the game.

    Way to go SDS….more participation trophies this year I see.

    First online Battle Royale game and the guy has zero plate discipline, foul tipping balls off his feet and in the dirt.

    What’s the point of playing a baseball game if you don’t have to use plate discipline? Why not just make your main game mode Homerun Derby to please children and uncoordinated fat dudes?

    Lol what you want them to do make the game exclusively for hard core ballers and sell ⅕ of the copies they'd sell otherwise? People just have to find their happy medium if you don't like a game don't play it I'm sure they put a good amount of thought into how to balance the game for every skill level to enjoy

    I think we all need to just realize that Sds is moving from competitive gameplay to Mario kart. Everyone plays everyone wins....no one wins too much and no one loses too much. Where every player is created equal and not judged by their skill level...

    I figured this out a long time ago. SDS knows most people are not like us (The Hardcore) they are "Casuals" and they dont want to practice the game, they just want to pick up and play.

    See! this is what I've been saying for ages and you guys say I'm trolling. I hope they don't noobafy the game as the years go by, I mean we have RBI baseball and Super Mega baseball for the casuals to go play......they can have their instant gratification no no skill baseball game with those. SDS should move away from this silly casual DD online thing and put at least a bit more emphasis into Franchise and making the game more realistic.
