    Ok, but top players comprise 0.5% of the population, why only cater to them?

    Because they cry when they lose and nothing is ever on them.

    Does anyone actually believe SDS makes sweeping changes based on message board posts from a random and miniscule part of their customer base?
    Not a chance. Not even a factor.

    Facts are, everyone on this forum represents not even 1% of the total people who play this game.

    They base their changes on raw data, and when a majority of teams are hitting well over .400 online, that's when they decide to make changes.. now only the WS players are over .400

    Yes based on all star difficulty before barely anyone even made hof. I’m not saying an adjustment didn’t warrant being made but not to the extent and not before the game had been out for even a week

    I don’t get the fielding is broken, haven’t met that if you don’t force your player and go with the animation. But events on HOF is 1-0 fests. Not fun

    Sometimes there is no animation...

    I haven’t had a 1-0 game on hof in the event maybe the entire time

    8-2
    3-2
    6-0
    4-0
    2-0
    3-2
    7-2
    7-5

    I don’t think hof in the event is the same as ranked as I’m lighting peeps up in the event while hof in ranked is a low scoring snooze fest

    I asked for it. Sucks having people flailing at 10 pitches an AB and never strikeout. Strikeouts are finally a thing again this year, even on all-star difficultly.

    My ranked games to world series 2 days ago were

    9-6
    3-0 in 2 innings
    11-3 in 7 innings
    6-1 in 7 innings
    9-8 in 10 innings

    I'm not seeing these low scoring snooze fests

    Welp, I guess I’d just have to buy a monitor if I want to be as good as I was in past mlb the show games to compete bc catching up to 102 fastballs and adjusting to offspeed is nearly impossible for me this year. Meanwhile I’ve had no issues with the fielding after the patch like you which is odd

    I've had a couple instances of players not locking onto balls but it's meh and I'm hoping it gets fixed soon.

    I just played my first event game of this one and I didn’t find the pitch speeds much different than AS in ranked. Obviously you have to be on the fastball, but that is not new. I have yet to play a HOF game in RS.

    I’ll play a few more and see.

    I think hitting is a mess.

    It is a mess. Everyone except for the folks who spend their entire checks and play this religiously are playing completely different.

    Spending money doesn't help make you a better hitter, if it does allmustfall wouldn't be complaining about hitting...

    Because they’re just using X to hit, no PCI. I wish ranked would place players together with using the same interface for hitting.

    That’s not true at all. Have you ever used directional online? Like a large sample size?

    Yet you know that guys that foul of pitches every where or using directional? where's the logic in that if you've never used it?

    And what’s included in these “changes” to bring players BA down? Nerfing hits? Messing up the timing window? Why can’t they just let us play without trying to dictate everything?

    I asked for a faster pitch speeds and smaller PCI. When your in the 700-800's, you shouldn't lose 3-4 in a row to people in the 500-600's on some BS like last year. Pitching actually matters this year.

    Wow. Well, I’ll admit it is slightly less iffy since 1.05 (1.06?) but it’s still usually a battle of who will hang the first gopher ball, I’d say.

    Now I’m a lousy hitter so that is its own issue, but every game I lose usually has an unforced walk or two followed by a home run on a pitch I missed up with.

    If you're in the 700s you shouldn't be playing people on all star anymore. Wouldn't it be better to find a way to make that work than punish people that were struggling to hit on all star before the patches?

    I prefer HOF and can still score runs on HOF. I made people quit on HOF yesterday. I'm sure plenty of others do too. I hope they don't change it.

    Yea, I did too on Thursday. Last night and today it feels like everyone is throwing 120 and my pitchers either throw right over the plate or 2 ft outside. Never had this problem before. Tried different controllers, settings and connections and same problem.
