HOF difficulty & 1-Run game pattern...

The power creep has NOTHING to do with the exit velocity issue. It’s happening even with the best collection cards in the game.

@borderpatrollin_XBL There's nothing wrong with Exit Velocity. People looooove to complain about it EVERY SINGLE YEAR...but it's fine. Sorry you aren't getting a HR every AB. Get Gud

After checking receipts on the online ranked leaderboard in no particular order the heavy hitters above with NO ISSUES have an online ratings of 200, 380, 444 and an absolutely MASSIVE 462 rating along with the one too scared to even load up online. Yes, not a single person telling you how wrong you are has been within 100 points of HOF.
“Get gud” but hits .254

@DeleteyourTTVBTW_MLBTS, in your checking of receipts, you may have neglected to consider that the original poster plays offline. I saw someone start a thread about their experience with HOF, actually did see that they play offline, so I thought I'd share my experience because just about every game I play against the CPU is played on HOF. I didn't tell him to get better and that if he did, he'd expect better results; I said that cards with ratings lower than 75 or thereabouts don't regularly produce exit velocities like he seems to be expecting. By design. And I'm saying that I think that's a good thing and that I like it.
I'm not bagging on the OP's skill, and some of my post was pretty clearly in response to the one right above mine, but had you actually looked at your receipts you could see that he's still getting perfect/perfects between 96-112. With these lower rated cards at this stage of the game, he's probably (and I'm speculating) seeing exit velocities largely in the 80s and 90s on good contact that isn't a perfect/perfect, and in the 70s on okays, or late or early. But what he's not seeing is perfect/perfects in the 70s and low 80s. That would be an "issue." The velocities associated with non perfect/perfects catch up as we see increases in power creep, and they'll soon enough probably all become home runs, too, and then the exit velocity issue will be "fixed." By becoming laughably unrealistic.
And funny that you refer to someone as "too scared to even load up online" when you post behind an account that doesn't provide the very receipts you use to put on your airs.

If exit velos are nerfed a bit against cpu I would argue that stealing bases is easy as can be.
Jram is like 70 speed and 70 steal and succeeds about every time with no extra lead... Plus cpu never throws over this year, last year it seemed like the cpu knew when you were going to steal and had a 80% successful pickoff rate if you led off
So if you get on... Steal

How about guys with 80 plus power against bronze pitchers? Bro stop defending this nonsense it’s not good. The hitting is nerfed. Everything is situational. If a player strikes out and swings at everything the game gives that player late weak hits. It happens all the time. Exit velocity is depending on what’s happening how much you are up by. The inning. Have you played diamond quest? You see all the perks? Those perks should have a major impact on the game and they don’t. If this game does not want you to win. You won’t. It gives you opportunities and windows and making up for that if you miss that opportunity is impossible. No matter how good you are.

@The_Joneser_PSN bro you are trying to sound smart but in reality you don’t lmfao. No one said every time… but they are never over 100 MPH in the game is the point lmfao. It’s literally good contact at 75MPH lol
-
@trfatboy22_PSN I am MORE than happy to play you 1V1 lol

@The_Joneser_PSN bro you are trying to sound smart...
My apologies, Dr. Lexus. I'll rephrase:
Why come you not understand how power attributes work now lol?

Might need a few more variables, here...

I see, now... you're one of those. Never mind.

I can hear Harry Doyle in my head: "One run on one hit. That's all we got!? One gd-dmn hit!?"
You can't say that in here!
-
@borderpatrollin_XBL But how could you with this "broken" game that won't let you hit the ball hard
-
@The_Joneser_PSN Lol I mean the person you replied to has more games online than all of you combined and more importantly HAS ACTUALLY PLAYED HOF ONLINE unlike a single person telling him no issues here bub, I’m still absolutely crushing these 67 overalls in conquest.
Luckily there is nothing wrong with being terrible and needing to face bronze and common pitchers in slow motion and wanting that self confidence boost that it’s somehow “HOF” difficulty. Years ago I was terrible for a couple weeks as well. I get it. You’ll be alright just keep conquering those territories and soon you’ll move on from slow motion gameplay where they don’t have to manipulate it from the start to help you get passed the finish line.

I bet you're always the coolest guy at the sausage party, and that everyone swoons at your prowess at sports video games. I'm sure everyone reading your response is appropriately envious (and completely willing to overlook how you use an account that hides your surely stellar performance while bagging on others').
I do find it amusing that instead of admitting you misinterpreted the context and that this thread wasn't even about HOF online, you instead choose to double-down on your sad little flex, and try to slide by without anyone noticing your inability to comprehend the discussion. I'll point out, again, that the point wasn't "I'm still absolutely crushing" but the fact that the velocity is down by design, for everyone, and not an "issue" to be fixed just because your sad little egos can't bear to lose the shine that comes from video game home runs.
But that type of sissy talk isn't for you. I know that. You're an animal. You just keep being impressive... crack another White Claw because the parents are out of town, tell the boys how you'd be even more spectacular if they didn't nerf your offense, and revel in the immeasurable fame that comes with playing MLB The Show online at HOF and above.
