Wow This Mode is Not Like RTTS
-
And it only gets worse! Even when you start to get your timing down and PCI in the correct spot, you still will find yourself wondering "what else must I do to get a hit?". So, if you're enjoying the game without playing DD, I'd stay away.
I'm too far down this rabbit hole to even stop, so I just keep playing in hopes I can get just a pubic hair better.

@JackD290_MLBTS DD and RTTS are tuned completely differently. Offline, RTTS can be set to a "casual" gameplay experience- makes things a fair amount easier. DD is set to "competitive" by default. That's probably why you're struggling.
Switch your offline experience and see if the difficulties suddenly cross over- if they do, you just need to, and I'm sorry- get better. Which would just take more reps, that's all

Welcome to the real show! Lol. Where hitting is extremely difficult for just about everyone. Until you master it. Then even when you master it, you will find yourself yelling at the monitor because the rng will get you half the time.
-
@Sarge1387_PSN No I’ve had my RTTS career set to competitive the whole time and the two modes feel completely different.
-
Well I mean one player swing and timing vs a whole lineup
-
@Apolloz_99_MLBTS Yeah but the lineup’s stats are better and it’s 3 difficulty levels lower…
Is the logic in the room with us?
-
@JackD290_MLBTS every player has a different swing and different timing. You use one player compared to a whole lineup.
-
@Apolloz_99_MLBTS So stats and difficulty are irrelevant?
If so then I don’t see how anyone is supposed to be good at this mode if you have to memorise every single player’s swings and timings, that’s some next level brain training memory exercise stuff, I just wanna play a video game and have fun man
-
@JackD290_MLBTS there is a reason people prefer a certain difficulty. It’s also why there are certain players in almost every lineup year after year. Swings have matter more than attribute for some time now. The game can still be fun if you don’t focus on tribal things.
-
I can almost guarantee that if you just stick with it for a week or so you'll get the timing down and be able to hit in DD as well. Just takes a little practice.
-
Ok, fair...just offering up my suggestion as to why you're experiencing a noticeable difference. No offense meant
-
The result of SDS listening to the loud complaints that the mode was too easy, and seeing the achievement levels of the extreme 1% of players who treat MLB The Show like a way of life vice a video game.
This leaves the 99% of customers who have a healthy comprehension of the difference between life and video games having to wade through a game mode filled with layer after layer of artificial difficulties laid before them to try to silence the clamors of the 1%.

@Sarge1387_PSN Sorry my answer probably came across really blunt, you didn’t upset me
