    You didn’t answer my question. You have zero proof. You are just assuming that they are using timing hitting.

    I’ve been using it…you cheese your opponents to death with it….with bare minimum effort.

    Interesting that they added Timing and removed opponents feedback at the same time.

    Last year it was called "pure analog". The only difference was you couldn't use buttons, your only input option was the right stick. Did you complain about it last year, or is it just the name change that's got you all worked up?

    You could use it with buttons as well. Using directional without moving the stick is the same as timing. It’s been that way since they originally changed timing to directional and added the ability to aim where you wanted to ball to be hit.

    Here goes another thread of the same whining and complaining from the usual suspects. It’s going to be a long year for them. It must be exhausting complaining about the same thing several times a day for months on end just to repeat the process when the next iteration of the game comes out.

    Perfect, thanks for the expansion on that. I've never used directional, but that makes perfect sense.

    If I remember right, people who said they used directional last year were laughed out of the forums. Why do they now think it's the reason they aren't very good at the game?

    I'm not very good at the game, it's not the games fault, I'm just old and slow.

    Have you tried the timing interface. I used it for 2 games to see what all the fuss was about and if you don't have good or perfect timing its always a swing and a miss. The timing windows are extremely punishing. You know you can say this game sucks without blaming losses on this garbage right?

    Man, Timing just made my dog knock over a glass of water. No need to prove it. It's obvious.

    No they didn’t!!! Timing/direction/pure analog whatever have been here for years, and feedback was removed last year, because 20 was a sh** show. Stop making stuff up

    They’re unwilling to come out and say why they removed feedback so at this point I’m fine with making up reasons why they did so. They can solve this for us.. if they want to.

    Why does it need to be a secret?

    Feedback is created by sending sound waves into an active speaker that is simultaneously sending sound waves out of the speaker. This back and forth movement of sound waves creates a swirl of vibrations, ultimately resulting in feedback.

    Originally, feedback was a very undesired side effect of adding electronics to Spanish style guitars. To counteract this, Les Paul invented a solid body guitar, known as the log, to remove the ability for sound to swirl inside an open bodied Spanish Guitar. Fender was the next company to invent a solid body electric guitar. The most popular being the Telecaster, named because of the Television craze of the 1950's.

    However, with musicians such as Jimi Hendrix popularizing the use of feedback in music, the musician and audience view of controlled feedback drastically changed. By August of 1969, Hendrix perfected the use of feedback in his now legendary performance of the Star Spangled Banner.

    Footnote:

    Other solutions for feedback were also invented, mainly a semi-hollow body guitar that is a Spanish Guitar, but with an added block of wood in the middle of the body to stop the swirling sound waves.

    Timing is just pure analog from previous years. They added the option to use the button swing, so they changed the name. As another forum user informed me, it's also the exact same as directional hitting when you don't choose a direction.

    Why are people complaining about directional hitting? Because they have a conspiracy theory that states they are getting beat online because of this input type. They have no proof that their opponents are using it, and they have no proof that it works better than squaring up a ball with the PCI. But, it sure gives them a reason to complain about the game for no reason.

    We all know they won’t. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have anything else to do all day.

    FWIW, pure analog from years past is not the same as timing this year. The major difference is that with pure analog you also had to direct the bat with the right stick. Meaning, if the pitch was on the inside and you wanted to pull it, you would have to push the right stick up and left (for a RH hitter). So timing was not the only component of it.

    I can't tell you how many times I would have good timing on a outside pitch but roll over to SS because I didn't push the right stick towards RF. Because of the 'aim' mechanic, it caused the swing timing to be much more dynamic than it is in this years game. At least it feels that way. Now it doesn't matter which way you push the right stick as long as the timing is good. Really wish they would bring back pure analog; it was a very rewarding way to hit especially on higher difficulties.

    Timing has ruined the game. People just swinging early blasting homeruns. Why would they implement this feature. No skill to win. It is so obvious when people are using timing. SDS what were you thinking

    How is it obvious? I hit early balls out with zone… it’s called extension and swing plane…. Timing ruins it from the amount of fouls balls they get

    Timing was 100000000000% there last year. Called directional, just like it is now...
