    @GoTitans3_XBL said in Yep time to get rid of circle swing:

    It’s not used for any skillful purpose. It’s used to flail at every pitch and foul it off over and over with no penalty except getting an out for people flailing around any way who already have a batter with 2 strikes. The fact that’s in the game makes me believe the people who make the game barely play it.

    Somebody tell me one thing you use contact swing for other than that?

    It’s used to get a single when a runner is on 2nd or 3rd because not everyone needs a home run and some players (not the gamers but the baseball players) can’t hit them.

    Lol just no. Circle swing for a player who can’t hit a homerun isn’t getting out of the infield. What’s that exit velo going to be? 30?

    You most certainly can get the ball into the outfield with Tony Gwynn using circle. I don’t use it but you could do it. I don’t use square either but I’m sure many people use that exclusively.

    So you don’t use it but told me what people use it for? Lol. And nobody is using square, let alone square exclusively, except maybe some random beast who plays offline only on rookie.

    Just because I don’t use it doesn’t mean I don’t know what it’s used for. I’m not a complete moron like you. Do you know why square is used and triangle?

    In real life a batter with 2 strikes that isn’t just swinging for the fences would use circle.

    No they would choke up and shorten their swing. Seems a lot harder than switching the button they press to just foul off every pitch every where. But please keep correlating hitting a different button to top level baseball players.

    People don’t use square. Already told you this. Maybe some random offline players do but nobody cares what they are doing. And I already told you what circle does and it isn’t what you imagine it does. And nice personal attack. Makes you seem smarter.

    It’s awful and can be abused in BR to peoples hearts content.

    The concept isn’t wrong, SDS has just failed to implement it correctly.

    Circle is the video game version of choking up. 🙄

    I’m not going to continue to spell it out for you. If you want to be willfully obtuse then so be it. Have fun.

    I know what you’re saying. You’re a whining little b!tch because people run your pitch count up by using circle. Probably the same little b!tch that only lost because of wind.

    Nothing screams high IQ like a post like this. If you’re not banned apparently this forum is just a free for all as long as you protect sds.

    Perhaps use the time off to seek help and learn to express yourself like an adult.

    Too many alts around here.

    I’m 100% serious they need to get rid of circle swing tho. Then you would have to “git good”.

    I haven’t had the issue. If someone is tough to strike out I just adjust and either lose or win. Last year though I would agree definitely.

    It's a contact swing, but what it really is a call for removal cause the caller doesn't know what pitch to throw when someone is purposefully fouling off pitches to extend an at bat.

    What’s your hitting input method? Analog, buttons? Flick? Stride?

    Sorry, but I use it with players who use the extreme shift. It increases my chances for that free opposite field double.

    Additionally, when using guys like Vizquel, who isn't hitting anything close to a HR gets me better odds at a hit.

    You act like it's all or nothing in hitting. It's ok to hit a single.

    THIS…This is exactly what a contact swing is. I personally use it when I have a runner on 3rd, 2 strikes & less than 2 outs and just need to put the ball in play for the run to score. This is baseball 101.
