     Before you read this I won. I’m just asking to see what’s going on but…  Me and my opponent hit 8 perfects in the game. 5 by me a 3 by my opponent. ONLY 1 of those perfects was a hit (single) by my opponent. In the whole game I had 12 hits while my opponent had. I’m not exaggerating when I say this I literally had 7 hits where my opponent threw a pitch on the inside of the plate and I’m late on it and my pic barley under it and it lands for a hit. I had 7 of those, but my 5 perfects were all outs??!!? If you don’t believe me I record everything. Out of all my 12 hits I only had 3 good goods, and 2 earlies. What makes things worse is that my opponent had 3 of those same exact hits and 2 very late hits. He only had 3 good hits in the game same as me. 
    

    For us to get hits do we have to do opposite of what we are supposed to do and just get lucky and not have any skill? I’m really trying to figure out because this isn’t an outlier of a game where this happened only once. Can someone please let me know something please. Because this game so does not work as intended or advertise lol. Don’t get me wrong I love this game so much and it does such a great job with content drops and new things and trying to be innovative but it lacks at the #1 thing a game needs to be best at and that’s gameplay input/ programming how the game works. It’s just is like madden vs 2k football05. 2k football will be so Superior to Madden because of its gameplay. No one cared about the lack of jerseys and content at the time because the game was played so well. When you have a good game you don’t have to mask it with new things every 3 days bc the gameplay will speak for itself. But yea lol I kinda got carried away lol my bad.

    Can you point me to what game you are talking about? Your game history shows that you have had 1 perfect perfect since friday and it was a hit.

    A Perfect/Perfect isn’t THE perfect hit. It’s a hit where the ball meets the bat square and the timing is perfect. There are still a lot of other factors that determine where the ball will land. Like: where the ball is in the zone when hit, how hard the ball i[censored], wind conditions, altitude, and what part of the bat where the ball meets it.

    It does take skill to this the ball (which I understand but still suck at). And remember to take into account the skill of the other player and the cards they are using.

    I honestly can't answer your question and I can't argue with the .800 batting average or whatever it was on PPs they posted a few days back, because I haven't tracked it myself. I have wanted to for sure, because I just don't see anyway me or my opponents are .800 on PPs. I do know this though...I do NOT want this game to mimic "real baseball". My mind tells me I want a game that completely mimics the real game, but that is just not true. I know I would get destroyed by a lot of players if we had a game that rewards input, but that is what I want in this game. I know it is never going to happen though. Things I would like to see...

    • Pitcher Confidence gone
    • Clutch Gone
    • Most Quirks Gone
    • A PCI that represents barrel or more accurately represents what it shows/does
    • A perfect/perfect being a guaranteed hit...doesn't have to be a homer. A PP with Nicky Lopez should probably most often be a single.
    • Contact on pitches out of the zone with bad timing not resulting in hits.
    • Pinpoint functioning more similar to last year. I am find if pinpoint is harder to get perfects, but perfects should at least coincide with PAR. A pitcher with poor control should have a pinpoint that is harder to land a perfect and a pitcher with better control should have a pinpoint that is easier to land a perfect.
    • Non extended leads not resulting in pickoffs.
    • Pickoff attempts at third when the person keeps extending their lead not resulting in a ball thrown down the line.

    I know that bloops are real baseball and so are dramatic comebacks, but I do want input to matter way more than it does. I also know that a perfectly squared up ball in real baseball can result in an out. I am not playing baseball...I am playing a video game.

    They said it in the stream. Hitting is working as intended. Which means they are aware of how hitting is and satisfied with it. Which says A LOT.

    Nothing wrong with that. Some claims are so outlandish they deserve to be fact checked and they are pretty easy to check, especially if you are on a PC.

    Yeah, I need to see San actual game log to verify 0 for 5 on PP’s.

    If one can’t be produced, the original post is dog [censored].

    Fact checking and dispelling misinformation is not stalking. Looking up game history is not stalking, he's not trying to find out his real name or something like that lol

    Dude is making stupid claims. I don’t like this years gameplay at all, but claiming 0-5 on PP’s is [censored]. Verify it or be prepared to have it debunked for you.

    No he’s not bc you can’t even look up if someone got a perfect out. It just says line out or fly out or ground out. Not perfect line out or anything. He’s making things up. I literally have it on my YouTube. ILL TAKE MY FILM OVER A TROLL TALKING…

    Explain to me how you can fact check if someone got a perfect out? Where does it show it? For it show it in show game log, show box scores, or game summary? Bc I’m looking and I do see where it says perfect hit but it doesn’t say perfect out. It just says line out or Fly out. You say it’s nothing wrong to face check but what about fact checking the person who said they are doing the “fact checking”. I LITERALLY RECORD EVERY GAME ON MY YOUTUBE. I can show anyone. I don’t just come in forums and lie. What do I gain? I can literally say something happened and someone say no it didn’t. Just cuz he said it didn’t happen doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. Dang

    It shows on your box score when you look at your game history.

    Here is one of mine against the CPU

    Perfect Contact Hits (Perfect-Perfect)
    Justice: 109 mph (Justice homered to center (405 feet). 1 RBI)
    Miller: 110 mph (Miller doubled to left. )
    Edman: 101 mph (Edman lined to right for a single. )
    Miller: 108 mph (Miller homered to left (416 feet). 1 RBI)
    Pujols: 112 mph (Pujols lined out to LF (L7). )
    Edman: 111 mph (Edman homered to right (415 feet). 1 RBI)

    Another player posted a thread about a ball being knocked down by the 3rd baseman. Here are his prefect perfects for that game.

    Perfect Contact Hits (Perfect-Perfect)
    Fielder: 106 mph (Fielder grounded out to 3B on a deflected hit (5-3). )
    Aaron: 107 mph (Aaron doubled to center. )

    So they do show.
