    Ok again, we have 10 minutes worth of videos from the past 20 year of baseball. I can give you a 20 minute video of these hits from 1 day of playing this game.

    FFS, kid....im not going through Youtube posting every video because someone got a bloop single in your precious RS game. Find them yourself, there are plenty.

    Unless of course, you'd rather sit in here crying over a game.

    Vlad Guerrerro says your take is trash...

    They for sure need to make contact on pitches outside of the zone result in outs FAR more frequently. As it stands swing out of the zone is a hit 1 out of ten times or a foul/redo 8 out of ten times.

    OP is saying you should be rewarded for swing at hittable pitches and he is correct, but not because it’s in the zone, because they made it so you are not penalized for bad pci placement and timing out of the zone. In the zone if you F up pci placement it is a weak out.

    Lol kid? Who's crying? You are making an illogical argument and have chosen to resort to insults. Sounds like you're being the child. It's cool man.

    I think we can all agree they need to do something about the foul balls. I also think they need to improve on the 'dynamic PCI' so that it actually shrinks when you go out of the zone. I think however if you square a ball up you square a ball up regardless of if it's in the zone. I don't think good PCI placement on balls out of the zone should be nerfed.

    You would think so, but no. The players who rely on trash hits and foul balls can't wait to defend this game.

    Sorry OP, but any criticism of the hitting in this game will be met with the garbage you see above me.

    "That's baseball. I've seen one of the best players in the world hit one out of the zone 5 years ago, therefore it should happen in every online game."

    Lol I never said every swing, I just said some swings can. I never defend this game, but to say out of the zone swings can’t result in hits is delusional. Game isn’t great, but don’t sub at me while trying to make a point.

    Yes you made light of my comment, I said puig hit one out game 5 back in 17 on a weird swing. You say this "That's baseball. I've seen one of the best players in the world hit one out of the zone 5 years ago, therefore it should happen in every online game." Who else could you be talking about, I’m the only person who said something relating to 5 years ago.

    Yeah the fastball 2 feet above the strike zone home runs are the worst.

    If I throw a pitch that high, there should only be 2 outcomes:

    1. A ball
    2. A swinging strike

    This is just a collateral complaint from having unrealistic ball physics and animations all around.

    @retrogzy_xbl said in My biggest problem w this game is that zone hitting can hit home runs on balls way out of the kzone:

    If you do make contact there it should be a single, not a home run. There should be a penalty for swinging out of the zone.

    You will never win this argument here.
    I've been saying for years that zone is a joke and the game needs a new hitting interface.
    Only with Zone can Kenny Lofton pull a slider 3 ft off the plate into the upper deck in RF.

    Physics plays no role. Nor do attributes. If you master zone (and if you have, I applaud you), this game is so easy that the only competition you will get is World Series in h2h.

    And what is the reticle?
    It's your 2nd set of eyes, right?
    So regular players (common-bronze) have horrible eyesight.
    Or, is it the bat?
    Diamonds use those big old red, fat wiffle bats and have eyes like the standard UFO caricature.
    Or is it some bizarre combo of both?
    "I got under that one, Skip. My eyes were too far under the ball."

    Only a game, and I don't have the solution, but I always enjoy the debate.
