this game used to be fun and now just makes me mad. i don't even play online and i don't even play past rookie most of the time. idk what they did to the game to ruin the fielding and hitting but it's not fun anymore for me and i don't think i like the game anymore. truly sucks because it was like 1 of my 2 hobbies for the past 10 years, but i'd rather not be pissed off all the time. haven't played at all since saturday and i don't think i'll be interested in giving it another try anytime soon
I would recommend playing March to October on veteran. It’s pretty rewarding. The game will screw you some, but mostly it will let you win. And you are earning affinity points that go towards face of the franchise players if you play online. I had the most success power swinging until I got two strikes. Last thing, if you play on a tv, make sure you’re on game mode. The smaller timing windows would make it very difficult to hit if your weren’t using that. I’m sure you’re aware of that but just in case.

This is more of a skilled base game and isn't for the weak.
Yeah, you can really tell it's "skilled base" when you throw a pitch aimed outside the strike zone, get a perfect release because you have skill, and have it go over the middle third of the plate and get hit 400+ feet.
Don’t even argue with him, hr sucks so much he is scared to ever play online.

Since you play offline, do you play DD or Franchise? If you play Franchise you can always change the sliders to favor you in hitting vs the CPU. If you are just playing for fun than you should not get to upset. If you still need the baseball fix then you can always go back a play 19,18,17,16......

Yeap skilled bases when good okays are homeruns but a perfect perfect is an out. Not skill based at all. The hitting is horrendous at this point
-
I would say that 75% of my p/p contacts have been hits and if I’m being honest, most of them have been homeruns.
I hit a 487 foot HR with 108+ exit velo using normal swing (X) hitting lefty with LS Albies (contact and power in the 50-60s against righties) in an event game against 99 Kluber this week.
When I get good/squared up, that’s when the RNG doesn’t like me. Haha -

Perfect perfect is literally almost always a hit. It's morons like you that persuade the developers to make more changes that break the [censored] game.

Are you insane? Perfect perfect are not always hits. I went 2/7 one game on perfect perfects. And everyone was with a power rating of 80 or higher. Hitting is a joke compared to early release

Absolutely not true. I’ve had numerous perfect perfect line drives that turned into pop flies. The most recent one was off a 94 mph fastball. The exit velocity on a “perfect perfect” swing was 86 mph. There is something seriously wrong.

a couple people mentioned Game Mode on the TV, which I did not know about. Tried that, and it doesn't seem like much of a difference for me, but i was able to finish my march to october with the yankees with a world series win on beginner and get my gleyber card. fielding still sucks and swinging the bat is like swinging underwater but i'm giving it another shot and trying not to take it so seriously.
appreciate the feedback, except for those 2 turds

What? Not for me. I’m Batting like 250-350
On perfect perfectI’ll go 1-5 or so per game in perfect perfect. Even against the cpu . Shoot sometimes if in on I’ll go 4-12 on perfect perfect.... should be 8-12 at a minimum

HAHA so this is the guy you noobs keep mentioning that I was....he also speaks the truth so I can see why you people hate him.

If you play most of the time on rookie only ... You're going to see more errors and bad Fielding because of the difficulty your playing on. Players Fielding stats are very important to stopping errors and outfielders making better reads... If your playing with a bronze team or a silver team or Big Papi at first.. Nelly Cruz JD Martinez in the OF.. you're going to see some bad Fielding
-
I've been where the OP was several times online and offline mainly due to losing games because of the bad bad bad bad bad bad fielding. did i say bad fielding? I lose games because my outfielder WILLIE MAYS gets caught in an animation and an easy fly ball 3rd out drops past him. I mean it's not like this only happened once but several several times! It gets old fast. It's total BS. And I PLAY OFFLINE!!

i'm super happy to be back in 20 for two days now lol!
i went back to 19 and was messing with PCI visuals for the zone hitting, and i started wrecking the ball with 'wedge'. so i went back to 20, changed the PCI appearance to have white diamonds in the center at 70% transparency so it's pretty clear to see, and the inner and outer parts fade away. when i was playing before, i was always trying to lift the ball for a big fly by getting slightly under it as in years and games past. but i figured out you really need to get those center diamonds on the ball if you want 'perfect' contact. and perfect contact is the best thing ever lol
also - i tried this new PCI first in custom practice mode on Legend difficulty for like an hour lol just trying to make contact. took it down to hall of fame, starting putting hits together, and now when i play on veteran, etc for other game modes i won't say i'm a good hitter, but i will say that i give myself a far better chance now every time at the plate.
