“Timing” hitting?
-
@xxfrystealerxx I sometimes do that to go from buttons/zone to analog stride/zone to get my timing back in order. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't; don't know what other people do.
Or they're just scouting your tendencies in the pitcher stats.

@xxfrystealerxx, it's possible that your opponent was doing the opposite of what you originally thought... I use timing with analog stride in RS (and have for years, back when it was called Pure Analog) because I like the way it feels, and because the sticks give you a little control over swing placement (inside, middle, outside), but I know I'm putting myself at a disadvantage without controlling PCI placement.
I will, however, sometimes do exactly what you saw if I face someone who gets too predictable with a single location; take a bit, put it in zone, camp that reticle in their favorite spot, and let it rip. Much easier to hit HRs in zone if you get your location right as opposed to counting on the game to place it for you in timing/directional... of course, I'm [censored] with zone against someone who moves it around, and I just like timing with the sticks better, so don't bother to practice it. I don't set the world on fire, but I usually play at close to a .600 clip in RS using timing/analog, and that's enough for me to enjoy the experience.

Thanks for all of your input, it makes sense! I will say, however, that the scenario I described was not just for one pitch like the sarcastic example I initially used in my post (I was a bit salty at the time lol) but like when I notice this happening and the opponent pauses then starts mashing it's like all of a sudden they hit everything when the first few innings they couldn't get a hit. Maybe I am just too predictable when I pitch, I am only an average player at best overall but yeah... thanks guys! haha

No they are probably cheating when that happens my friend and I notice it too

@VioletNine9 ok but how is that possible? and so you're saying that I am not crazy then so thanks cuz when it happens I literally am just like "wtf did they hand the controller to a different player or something?"

Cronus they are hooking up their peripherals. I’m not gonna post anything here and the SDS white knights will die on that hill but there’s plenty of hacks for this games and examples you can find online.

@Crimson_Monk for sure I complain about the same thing to myself atleast 5 times a game when my inputs are good but the ball is still no where near where it was aimed or right down the middle it becomes offly frustrating when you lose a game because of it smh
-
@yankblan where can you see a players previous games tendancies well in a game with them or are you judt refering to hot/cold zones
-
@VioletNine9 Not white knighting, as idiots say, but Cronus works for pitching, not so for hitting. All the videos seen are HR Derby or batting practice. That fear mongering of a few years back died out quick.

@b00std_mark_II When you pause, in the stats tab, you can choose either hitting or pitching.
There you can sort all the pitch by situations/type/pitchers/hitters and so on. (beware the strike zone is from the pitcher's perspective) If your sequencing and placement is predictable, it'll show there.
