    I propose that SDS introduce universal pitch speeds no matter what level you are playing. I'm a Xbox guy so it's only my 2nd year playing the Show. Even though it's not a perfect game, I'm very happy that it is available on Xbox and I have spent countless hours playing it. My biggest pet peeve with the game is the pitch speeds. How can I ever get my timing down when I'm forced to play Program Moments that are set to Rookie or Veteran? Instead of the pitch speeds changing on each level, why not make the movement or break on pitches more difficult for harder levels. I also feel that Ranked should work the same way regarding pitch speeds. The only other change that would be as beneficial as universal pitch speeds would be to allow each individual to choose their difficulty in moments. I can see a minimum difficulty, but if I wanna play All Star difficulty in a moment I think I should be able to do that. If your a beast and a HOF player, you should be able to keep your timing and play on HOF.
    What do you guys think? Lastly, I'd like to thank the guys at SDS for all their hard work. Again, it's not a perfect game but know that their are people who appreciate what you guys do. ✌️

    People have asked for consistent universal pitch speeds for years so they don't have to keep adjusting between modes SDS simply won't do it nor will they explain why

    The pitch speeds should be equal to real life both offline or online, regardless of difficulty. Difficulties should make it easier or harder on the timing of the swing.

    Veteran and below should be slower IMO, or at least Rookie and below. But play RS and see the varying speed of the same pitcher from game to game regardless of level, lol....thats connection and not on SDS end

    Pitch speeds were universal up till 2018 I believe. Not sure if the change was user driven or not, but it would be hard to see SDS reverting after 5 years.

    Connection can be a frustrating issue, I agree.I for one cannot afford the best connection .There are many likewise . One big reason I do not pay much tribute to online heroes accomplishments. Now in previous versions of the Show you could challenge very good user created teams to a 9 inning battle play a team in your rated neighborhood and settle in for a good game of BASEBALL. Cheese away ,it dosnt work. Th present state of the game it seems is to Force online play. It is getting harder and harder to enjoy the game for a lot of BASEBALL fans. Games vrs user created teams never affected the users team,only the player who challenged. There are too many unfair matchup variants to in any way EVER call ranked season fair. And WAY too much BS to EVER call it BASEBALL.

    Number on moments are set so everyone can accomplish them. Secondly yes we have wanted universal pitch speeds but SDS thought it was a failure in 18. The biggest problem is server stability and the McDonald’s wifi people play in. Until everyone goes to playing with a lan line into their systems this issue will continue

    I totally agree with you here, even pitch speeds on Legend maxed out in slightly slower than RL but if this became the universal pitch speed that would make DD casuals and noobs super triggered, they prolly wouldn't even want to play the game anymore.
