Remember last year when frickin Ichiro was the unstoppable card? Bloop hit after bloop hit and speed cheese. 20 is so much better from my end.
People want to go back to being able to bloop their opponent to death, not me, no thank you.

Last night I went back and played a game of 19, 20 is soooo much better, fastballs in 20 seem faster, off speed pitches in 20 are slower, the pci changes are amazing in 20, heck even the strike zone in 20 is better, in 19 the zone is black and it’s actually quite distracting. You don’t have line outs galore in 20, if you can consistently square up the ball you’re going to get rewarded, you don’t have the ridiculous constant bloops that 19 has. The analog meter in 20 goes so much faster which is nice. 20 has issues with fielding and to a lesser extent pitching but overall 20 is a much better game.
i agree completely

Here’s the thing with this game. Just now I lost 3-2 to my opponent that struck out 20 times. Hit only contact were 3 homers and all mistakes. 2 singles. I got 2 runs on 3 hits but I had 8 contacts that were outs. To me. In my opinion. This is not good gameplay. I’m constantly losing to these players that have 15-20 strike outs but get these mistakes that they crush. WHY my question is to you. Is the only contact this dude made all hits and my contact is outs? How is this decided? If I were more consistent maybe like you are I could win. However — that still should not be the case. If I’m out inputting my opponent by double or triple their inputs the decision to make one players outs and another’s all hits is absurd.
He literally had 20 strike outs. You can check the game log. The inputs he made were all good ok. And they were all rewarded. My inputs were good/squared, good good no perfects that weren’t hits. But still. This imo needs work.
I don’t find this to be one game. It happens a lot. My question is also this. How much better does one have to be in order to consistently win. Because I was clearly better then this dude. All he did was flail swing 20 strike outs. And then a ball would miss and he’d crush it.
-
Btw I have A lot of games that I strike my opponent out 15-20 times and lose. And everyone of those games I out input my opponent by more then double.
-
I will say also I would be fine with the input part if they eliminated mistakes. It’s basically a guaranteed homer for someone striking out that many times because they don’t see a ball.

I get being annoyed at hangers, pitching needs work, A lot of work! but it's really annoying to me when I see people equate strikeouts with winning or losing.
Just because your opponent strikes out 20 times doesn't mean you necessarily deserve a win everytime that happens. -

Just because your opponent strikes out 20 times doesn't mean you necessarily deserve a win everytime that happens.His only attempt at good inputs is down t 7 outs...

So? If you aren't hitting consistently, that means those attempts at good inputs might make the difference.
And yes, sometimes the game screws you and your inputs don't get rewarded, I'm not saying it doesn't happen.
But this game isn't called who can strikeout out the other person more. -
I'm just really down on the game right now. It feels hopeless. I'm going to take a break for a few days and hopefully it'll feel better when I come back. I'll just grind out Showdown for now.

Hitting is good enough right now but the fielding and baserunning are extremely frustrating and it’s taking the joy out of the game for most. That and the way hits are recorded as errors and vice versa plus the announcers saying the wrong thing at times, just makes for an overall sloppy experience. I love this game, I just hope they tighten it up a bit
I'm with you. The assisted baserunnning and the amount of bobbled ground balls are the biggest things and bug the heck out of me. Outfield catches are the other thing. (Granted, I haven't had that thing where it just hits or goes through a fielder in position). Other than that, It's been fine when sticking to my preferred modes of play. Showdown is a different story, at least for me.

The game plays well and agree with you that it plays better the 2019 by a longshot aside from the obvious fielding issues that will be fixed.
However, the timing window doesn’t make any sense to me. I’d like to see a frame by frame difference between a 92mph cutter and 92 mph sinker. There is no way it’s the same which makes my hitting experience at higher level frustrating.

I’m so sick of not getting pitches to swing at from the CPU. I don’t play the CPU to have every at-bat go to a full count.

Is this Skepple guy Ramone's boyfriend or something? I casually read this forum sometimes and you post on every thread. Your head must be so far up SDS's @nal canal that you can't see anything from anyone else's perspective.
The game is CLEARLY and significantly flawed in many ways. I'm honestly curious why you feel the need to completely ignore all the flaws and consistently blame all the other gamers for the problems.
I hope someone hits an okay / early grand slam off of you today. Wipe Ramone's K umoff your face, Christ.Congrats you know how to copy paste!
