Hitting is an absolute joke
-
After years of playing, I have never complained once here or elsewhere. However, the hitting is unreal for 22. I had perfect/perfect outs last season, but it is totally different this year. So many good/good, perfect/perfect with power guys and nothing but, "it's all about the process" comments when they die in the outfield.
My team is all diamond guys with power. I can handle server errors, but I can't handle this game becoming nothing but an RNG flip for the win.

I’ll be honest I’ve seen more out of the zone hits than in the zone. You can’t throw a ball in the dirt without it being hit hard, all star at least.

Maybe that is my issue. We need to wait for pitches outside of the zone!

…….. bloop

But he’s right though I’ve had a lot of good swings just be weak yet if you swing for the pitches out of the zone they get launched. I like the ball animations off the bat but man hitting is just odd

One word. Wind.

Wind never existed before this season or what? Come on.

I will say this: The game, outside of hitting at the moment, is very good. I am a grown [censored] man that plays this game, and GTA once every few months. At least SDS puts out a new version and doesn't keep you waiting for years.
-
For me it’s been an attem ball bonanza.
Ludicrous.

If you are new to the game, this is just a cut and paste of 19 and beyond

After playing some more games tonight, I think low in the dirt swings are being rewarded too much. I've seen more line drive hits with pitches ankle high than I did last season. SDS needs to fix it where it's more choppers than anything.

No wind last two years I believe, it seems to be back one for some modes.

Just because you square up a ball perfectly doesn't mean it's going to leave the yard or not go right to a fielder. The best in the world fail 7/10 times and that has to be reflected in this. The game would be awful if perfect inputs equaled hits every single time. That would be arcade baseball.

No one is complaining that every ball squared up isn’t a hit. It’s that you square balls up with 100 power and they go 200 feet

I’ve said it many times….too much RNG and Simulation. Like you said, it comes down to who got the lucky numbers.
I’ve just accepted it and try to have fun. I would like to see a more rewarding hitting system one of these days though. Who cares if someone puts up “football scores” during a game. If they can do it because of skill….then allow them to do it.

Against the CPU hitting seems fine. Havent played enough H2H to judge yet.

You have always, and still do, have the option for wind vs CPU. H2H SDS controls on or off, mostly off I believe.

No, it would be, ahem, video game baseball. Derp.

Not good news, haven’t played the new game since I’m waiting on Xbox game pass but 19 or 20 was just horrendous with the rng on good swings. I remember they even disabled one of the pitching stats that year to try to fix the problem…forgot which per 9 stat they claimed to turn off.

Hr/9..... Used to keep the balls from flying out with the higher hr/9

Its a shame you spent all that money for a full team of diamonds and you still cant hit.
