One word. Wind.
Wind never existed before this season or what? Come on.
No wind last two years I believe, it seems to be back one for some modes.

@txbizman_psn said in 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.
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.

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.
Not that id wish this on anyone, but watch golf.you dont see them hit many choppers.its the same swing for those low pitches.

How do I post a pic on here? I just fully squared a ball with early side of good, 120 power, pop out to the catcher

Where are you getting these diamomd players with 120 power? Did you all just buy a team? There's nothing avaliable to win or grind for on that level.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say there will be half the diamond cards as there were last year by the end of the year.

Hunter renfroe br program
13 pci rating and early good- 84 degree launch angle 88 exit velo. Happens about once every other game in br then a couple more absolute duds throughout the game -
I think people are too used to anything near the pci being an automatic 500 ft no doubter.
Ball halfway in the pci … “man I squared that up, where’s my HR!”

Lol there’s no way you just said baseball players swing the same way as golfers. Those are 2 totally different swings and golf balls do not move. Either you’ve never played golf or baseball. Or both. No offense.

In a similar vein, Rookie pitchers throw way too many balls. Trying to grind and it’s a joke. In Rookie bad pitchers shouldn’t be working the black like Maddux...
