Timing and directional should be removed for ranked diamond dynasty.
-
I'm going to take the counterpoint here. I have a neurological condition that sometimes affects my left hand. There are days its barely working, but I still want to play the game I love. So, I go directional. Its much easier for me to pick a direction and try to time my swing properly. I know I'm at a disadvantage competitively, but I love to play so much I don't care. I'm simply having fun playing a game I love.
-
If timing and directional gave an unfair advantage then all the try hard streamers would be using it. They all bought xbox consoles a couple years ago becsuse they thought xbox was better. Do yourself a favor, play a game, hell an inning, using timing. It's trash.
It also needs to be allowed in ranked for children, old timers, and people with disabilities.
-
@lvega127_PSN and I’m glad there is an option for you to play the game
-
I disagree. The one thing that should be taken away is all the strike zone views.

@Stryder40_XBL directional confirmed

According to my wife, I'm both a child and an old-timer. I tore my Achilles playing Pickleball a few days ago, so maybe that counts as a disability. Three-for-three!

@fuminpuma_PSN youre being sarcastic but for selfish reasons id love that. Because its the only variable that explains (outside of the fact im just not very good to be fair lol) why i feel so outmatched. Especially hitting. Ive done everythjng else in my control, i specifically bought a cord to always play wired, i cleaned the dust from inside the ps5, i try to keep over 100gb free on drives at all times etc.
Im not buying a computer monitor to play one game. Feels like a design flaw. Plus it just wouldnt work for my setup in my already cluttered living room. Lol

@Insanecat556677_PSN if you think ranked modes are about skill you've never played...basically any ranked mode. Including this one where how people try to win games is with spamming super fast runners and deking out throws to exploit animations. When bunting was easy it was bunt-steal-steal-bunt. or spam sinkers up and in when that was impossible to hit. these things are not "skillful" and not how you play real baseball. but alas ppl always rely on cheese to win games. But if you actually think directional gives you an advantage you are delusional.
-
So for the people who use those batting interfaces, screw them, right? Let them learn how to use what you use if they wanna play online? Gtfo with that.

A zone hitter.

@SquishySoldier_MLBTS a good LG tv with low input lag is a good compromise, bought one last year and I had to readjust because I was early on everything. I don’t want to sit in front of a monitor to relax.
-
@yankblan_PSN i agree. I had a monitor, but last year I bought a 73 lgc3. It's awesome
-
Ban is a little harsh. Would be nice if they just told you at start of game what interface each opponent is using for pitching and hitting, and if they pause and change it, what they changed to.

exactly. i'm tired of looking at every players junk
-
@Insanecat556677_PSN Just going to share my experience with you…I used directional when I first started playing. After a couple years of never getting past 600 I decided to switch to zone. Since then I have improved greatly, Both in hitting and winning & even make WS once in awhile. Nothing wrong with using directional but you have to be ok with never winning consistently.

Since directional/timing is allowed and it is easier, why don't you just use it yourself?
I regret that I have but one Like to give…
-
I demand pinpoint can only be used for offline and play with friends.
-
@yankblan_PSN thanks ill keep them in mind for my next main tv. Ive had this one a few years so i know which brand to consider next time.
-
I find directional and timing Suck on hof. I use zone. If ur on allstar good luck facing these guys. Foul ball after foul ball
-
@LuvMyXBOX_XBL NO! Anyone messes with my zoom strike zone views I’ll lose it! Helps me see without sitting close to tv. Is it all twenty something’s on here? The whining and complaining, jeez!
