    Just got a USED 24 inch Acer monitor with 3ms response time, and I get into a showdown challenge. First batter, I hit a high and tight 99mph fastball for a double. 2nd batter, hit ANOTHER fastball for a home run and win the challenge!!!

    What a freaking difference!!! I saw those 2 fastballs with ease!!!

    I can already smell the disappointment when you get blown away by those same fastballs in RS on HOF. It makes a difference, yes, but I would temper the excitment just a notch if I were you or else you'll be extremely disappointed lol.

    And I'm sure it WILL make a pretty big difference playing online, if I'm seeing the pitches THIS much better offline

    It makes a huge difference online too. Don’t know why he’s acting like it doesn’t.

    Sure HOF and legend compared to Veteran or All Star is going to be harder. But it’s still that much easier to see on a monitor.

    I still play on a TV but went from a 2010 one to a 2018 one. It’s insanely noticeable at first but then you will become used to those speeds and response time and slowly HOF will feel fast again. Not unhittable like you might’ve felt before, just fast.

    Huge difference huh. Okay. It's literally 20-40 milliseconds difference. Yeah it's a difference, but it's certainly not "huge".

    It’s a huge difference. I went from not being able to see a fastball to being very early on 98+ mph consistently and having to tell myself to wait back.

    If you’re a top player than sure all star on a tv might just feel like HOF with a bigger PCI and you might be able to win. But for the average player it’s night and day. To the point unless you’re a top player this game isn’t even worth playing without a monitor.

    Well, I went from making WS on my TV to making WS on my monitor. Not to boast or anything, I'm just saying that I already had success without the monitor. And even though I also do notice a difference, it's not huge is all I'm saying.

    It’s really not that bad. You just sit closer and it all evens out.

    Yeah.. I'm the same way.. I was it set up in front of my normal tv in my "mancave" only for this game. Then when playing something else I'll go back to my original tv

    Depending on your tv, it is a massive difference going to monitor. Don’t let anyone tell ya different.

    For people with newer TVs that have game mode, a monitor will only be a slight upgrade.

    If you go from an old tv without game mode to a monitor, then you’ll definitely see a huge difference.

    Ok... here's some perspective from me. I started a SHOWDOWN when I connected this new monitor, I USUALLY go 4 for 12 in challenges, I just went 12 for 12!!! With NUMEROUS walk off home runs!!

    I would always ask myself watching YOUTUBERS, how are they so good at this game??? Now I know why

    I play on a 32in vizio 1080p tv with game mode. Ordered a new monitor that should be here Friday. We will see if it’s worth the upgrade
