Timing windows today

I'm a [censored] player but usually I make contact... just struck out 15 times vs. Rodon online. Literally was super late on everything was stupid. The amount of people commenting on this thread it's clearly not just me.
Won 2-1 on a contact HR.

It has been tough for me lately and IDK if it’s a skill issue or connectivity issue

I use Buttons to hit cause I suck at zone. I noticed I get alot of missed swings at the ball even though when I look at the bat it’s BARELY off from being a perfect hit. I can understand if it happens every now and then but it happens quite often and I be frustrated cause if I make an almost perfect swing then atleast make contact with the ball and don’t. Don’t just miss it completely

I think that is what you get when using “timing”. I have tried it a time or two and it just seems like a complete dice roll. Zone is a dice roll to a degree as well, but not near like timing. My experience has been that zone is much better if you can get the PCI anywhere near the ball. May not be the best contact with bad PCI placement, but contact will happen more frequently than with “timing”.

When you say, “I make an almost perfect swing,” do you mean the game makes an almost perfect swing for you? But doesn’t reward itself? I’ve heard it all

Meaning the bar is almost center perfect to being a perfect hit. I don’t mind it being a foul ball, ground ball, etc but the amount of complete misses I get on those can be frustrating like I don’t even make contact with the ball at all but yet I get home runs on BS swings that be outside way outside the zone.
Just the other day I was having my usual low scoring game in RS even though I hit some hits that I thought should atleast make contact with the ball either I was barely early or slightly late and no I was just whiffing at the ball but yet I get a HR in 7th inning off a slider that was 2 feet outside the strike zone on s very late swing for my only run of the game.

Oh I know it’s the reason and I understand that but the amount of times it happens can be frustrating in H2H atleast make me make contact with the ball rather it be a foul ball or grounder etc and not just be a complete miss more times than not.

It’s hard at first, but unless you have an injury or something that prevents you from doing so, I’d recommend switching to zone so you will have some control over what’s happening

Add me to the list. IMO this is the worst this year the game has played online.

Same, missing cookies all over the zone more games than not…on PS5, the controller did require a system update today and it seemed to help for a couple games. Then back to being very late on too many pitches, even when camping and sitting on pitches

Server maintenance. I guess we were all correct.

I know what I have to do to get better and I’ve tried it a couple of times it’s really hard atm for me. It’s my 1st ever MLB game and I just learned how to use pin point pitching and it’s definitely made my game better. I win my games cause of pitching not cause of my batting skills lol
