Or, you just need to hit better.
Zone works perfectly fine vs the cpu, as it always has.
You can square up every single pitch and still be at the mercy of the rng hitting. Yes it’s better than directional but it’s far from perfect. Perfect means your getting rewarded with every solid hit. That simply does not happen in this game.
You shouldn’t get rewarded for every solid hit.
Why not?
Ever watched baseball before?
Should solid contact be rewarded much, much more than bad contact? Absolutely
Should you get a hit every time you make solid contact? Absolutely not.
Would you quit playing this game if you got a hit every time you squared one up?

I know I would. I'm not here to play football scores. There is a difference between rewarding user input and arcade-style play.

They should really consider making two online modes.
Arcade - User input is king.
Simulation - Game replicates real baseball.Would be a great way to please the players. Every year it’s the same bickering back and forth about the gameplay.

Definitely seems like gameplay was tweaked today. I was behind fastballs a lot for the first time since I switch to a monitor. Also good/good has turned into a fly ball to center a lot.

Even in an actual arcade baseball game like Mario Superstar Baseball, you aren’t guaranteed a hit every time you square it up.
User input should matter a lot, but it wouldn’t be baseball without 105 mph line drives right at fielders.

Zone is unusable as of now vs cpu. Currently catching up on POTM missions and I’m on Anderson 17bases. Tried it 6 times all three games with zone. First two games I finish it with directional, it shouldn’t be like that. And I was get (good, okay) with nearly perfect pci placement.
Glad to know I am not the only one. 500 hours already played this year and I am hitting worse now than I did 2 weeks ago. I just failed 1st boss on Showdown again. I think any time I've beaten a Showdown, I just got lucky. At least with moments you can keep restarting.
I am done with Showdowns, looks like if I want to get past stage 1 its innings, and man it's a ton of innings.
Exchanges are awful, 12k for 20 points.
12K for 20 pts if you don't put in buy orders. It should be around 5K.

No I put in buy orders it cost just under 6k for 10 points, that was the 1 79, 4 78, 5 77, 5 76.
79 = 709
78 = Average 485 x 4 = 1940
77 = Average 377 x 5 = 1885
76 = Average 286 x 5 = 1430709+1940+1885+1430 = 5964.
Exchanges only get 10 points. So that is 11.9k for 20 points.
Those were the prices I paid for Yankees rivals. And those were all buy orders. I assume other teams maybe cheaper, but only 5k vs 5.9k I'd say.
If you know how to only spend 5k to get 20 points, I'd love to hear it.

Sorry I misread it as 10 pts. But with the stubs and packs u get in the TA program it's approximately a break even venture.
However, it is definitely cheaper than your method of you're willing to spend the time to buy lower rates cards. Over 1K less per 10 or exchange but it's certainly more time consuming.

Zone unusable? I did all of them the first try and completed a gazillion showdowns (which is also vs CPU) no issues whatsoever using zone.

Those weren't buy now, I put orders in and had to wait. It would have been a lot more to buy now. Like I said it was probably due to Yankees, or just that time of day. It would have probably been around 5k for the 10 points.
6 TA packs, for 10-12k. And that is just for the few teams that I actually have 50 points on.
I would say you could break depending on luck. The 6 I opened last night for Cubs was my worst pull, 2 silvers out of the 6 packs. I usually get 1 gold out of 6.
I really may have no choice, these Showdowns are killing me. I am now going to practice on Legend facing the Boss I am about to face right before I start it. It's worth a shot.
