    1. How do I change how I pitch in the game? Pinpoint is not working out well for me.

    2. What cam angle do you use to hit and what can you suggest to help me improve hitting? I always swing too early or too late

    If you’re using pinpoint pitching and having a hard time I’d switch to analog. For hitting I’d go with strike zone.

    I use SZ 2 personally, you may find SZ 1 better though as you can see the batter's footing better when he's set.

    I gave up on pinpoint two games ago and use pulse instead.

    I've been using analog for 3 years and do just fine. For hitting, go to customer practice and practice on one level higher difficulty. For example, if you are struggling on Allstar, set the difficulty to HOF. If you are struggling with R vs R inside heat/sinker, set a high velocity guy and choose what you are struggling on. Get that timing down then mix in the offspeed stuff. Customer practice is HUGE to get better. Any of the strike zone cam angles is preferred.

    So far right now I notice my biggest issue is I swing way too early. I guess that's a bad habit I have. How did you guys fix that if and when you had that issue?

    Play, play, and play some more. Some people use custom practice while others play friendly unranked games. Custom is great for situational issues like struggling with inside heat but there is a difference between any offline difficulty and that same difficulty on line IMO.

    Try lowering the Transparency of your PCI. A lot of guys turn it off completely. I lowered mine to 40 or 50 percent and it helps me focus more on the ball and where it's coming from and what it's going to do. I found myself getting tunnel vision and focusing on my PCI as opposed to the actual pitch.

    I feel like the only issue I have is I can not the inside fastball that comes in pretty hot is there any way I can get better with that. And I have been using classic pitching which works sometimes well but other times not. Is pin point hard to get down?
