How is this happening in every game online! What am I missing? Is it contact swings? Timing interface. I'm not exaggerating it's everygame. Stuff like this and sinkers 6 inches inside being blooped to the opposite field. You aren't punished for swinging at junk pitches at all this year
Please tell me I'm not crazy guys. Look where this pitch ends up and tell me why he gets rewarded for this ugly swing
Tyler O'Neill just had a hit like that about 6 minutes ago, then Arenado hit a HR off a breaking ball in the dirt. RNG, am I right?
-
The ball was belt high and barely out of the zone when he made contact. Was it a great swing? No, but it wasn't a great pitch either. It went right off the end of the bat for a weak hit up the middle. Not every hit is a perfect/perfect laser, and not every out is from weak contact. I'm not going to sit here and argue with you because clearly you're frustrated and looking for a fight. All I can say is this has been in the game for years. It will continue to be in the game for years. If you don't like it, stop buying the game.

Infield in has risks.

He reached out on a slider away and poked it into center. I have as many issues with gameplay this year as everyone else, but I honestly see nothing wrong with that. The result in the feedback is where the pitch would have ended up, not where the batter made contact.

The only one I can sense looking for an argument is you dude. Chill.

Bloops are bad this year and that certainly was a bad swing but I'm not sure that was the best example. There is no way of knowing for sure but that probably wouldn't have gone through if you didn't have the infield in. I don't want to say "that's baseball" because thats a lame excuse for bad gameplay usually but that's a textbook example of why not to bring your infield in
Thanks for the tip. Still man this game sucks. Yall are good men for not making fun of me. I just don't see how we are supposed to play the game if this is going to be how things are this year. Changups 8 inches below the zone arent safe, sliders 8 inches off the zone arent safe, sinkers in arent safe where are we supposed to pitch!
I'm gonna take a break from it. I love this game, but this night had been really infuriating. I don't usually get mad or upset about video games. Again thanks- don't bring the infield in.

Little Billy sure is a tough out this year. We’ll get him next year….they can’t keep catering to him, right? Please tell me I’m right and we’ll have legit gameplay next year.

SDS can lie all they want, but there is definitely a comeback mechanic. I was up in a BR game 7-2 with this dude hitting nothing all game then magically scores 5 runs in the bottom of the third off of B[censored]s then winds up winning cause I can’t be perfect every fucking inning. Game is an absolute joke. Pitching, fielding, hitting. It’s all a pile of [censored].

In general, when I fail, I find it's easier to blame magical and mythical imaginary people. Then, I don't have to take responsibility for my actions, or attempt to improve.
Glad to see you take the same path. F self accountability, totally over rated.

Why would he blame himself for when the game wants to start rewarding trash swings to drive in some runs? Oh let me guess….that’s a conspiracy theory right?

It’s amazing to me how blinded you are to the truth. Continue being the good little sheep that you are. People like you are part of the problem. You can’t justify that BS, so it must just be the player’s fault right. The irony of telling a player to take accountability when SDS takes ZERO themselves

I'm sorry you feel that way, I still love you bud. You're going to be ok, breathe and find balance in you life. Let me know if you'd like to meditate together, God loves you.

Someone lost what are we crying about now

Can I just ask something?
If SDS can't even correctly implement a new mode like mini seasons what makes people think they have the ability to perfectly code in a script to cause comebacks or screw them over in a game?
Noone ever considers it's just bad mechanics, the game must be out to screw them and anyone that disagrees is a sheep!
Except sheep usually just go along with everything, everyone the tin foil hat crowd calls sheep are usually people also complaining about the game they just don't think everything is out to get them personally -

Dude @FooFencer_NSW is an OG on this forum. I'm impressed that you took some feedback and didn't explode, that's not easily done in these waters, still your headline was "how can anyone defend this BS?" And your post essentially sounded like you were inviting an argument. Now I've seen you post a ton and a lot of what you say feels like mind reading haha, you definitely put a good voice to opinions and bring up a lot of good points. All I can say is, try not to let these hits ruin the game for you. I'm bummed about content and I know you are too, but there's not much to be done...we're in this now, might as well try to enjoy it.
Though I'd be a lot happier if they'd put TA back where they found it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m not lying when I tell you I have pitches almost twice as far outside and inside being hit for 6-7 straight fouls. It’s nearly impossible to get out a decent hitter right now. Every event game I enter batting averages are in the high .400s and of those a couple of guys are really great hitters, the others are just relying on contact swing. Very frustrating, very little fun. But hey, if I don’t want to boost I need some coins from somewhere.
-
Routine pop up if your infield isn’t in. That’s why I don’t even use the shift. It promotes weak hits to land. I’d rather someone just beat me with a straight up defense.

Not that it matters, but I've probably been around this forum longer than you have. When you start a thread with "Please somebody defend this BS!", you're not exactly looking to skip through a meadow and have a picnic. Maybe you didn't intend for it, but the topic and post read like someone having a temper tantrum because things didn't go their way. If this is your idea of being "cordial", then I'd hate to see how you communicate when you're upset.
The hitting system is far from perfect. Curve [censored] bouncing to the plate shouldn't be fouled off with bad timing. That is not the same as what you're using as "evidence". You threw a pitch belt high which was barely off the plate. He swung late and went with it, and it happened to bloop past an infield that was in. If you want to make an argument as to why the hitting needs to be improved, then you picked a bad example.
