Pitch speeds on HOF?
-
Recently, it seems as if pitch speeds have been reduced on HOF difficulty in ranked seasons. Does anyone else notice this?
Also, I would like to add, I think that cutters are artificially slowed down in this years game. E.g. a cutter clocked at 93 mph feels like 88/89 mph.
One last thing that’s kind of off topic, but my observation: high sinkers almost look like curveballs out of the hand, and as a result, appear to come in much faster than expected. I hope SDS can fix the sinker cheese for next years game.

Agree 100 on the sinker. They should be like 2 seamers, an accessory for most pitchers.
On pitch speeds I'm the opposite, I feel like it's been sped up since the last patch, can barely see the pitch before it's in the glove.

I've noticed the same. Fastballs are more manageable. High stinkers look 120 mph. Cutters get rocked. I don't throw cutters anywhere near the zone. I only use them occasionally as waste pitches to try to slow down the hitters eye

If I could punch high sinkers in the face I would

HOF pitches seem the same to me, for the most part. But the high sinkers are difficult out of the hand. I just assume anyone with a sinker will spam it high until they prove otherwise.
As far as cutters go, I love running them inside against same handedness. I get a lot of Ks looking because people think you're running a fastball inside, then it cuts back in at the last second.

Cutters from guys like Kluber and hamels are so clutch. You need to mix them well.
Pitch speeds seem the same to me, some days I can just see the ball better. When I’m well rested and my eyes are fresh the speeds seem fine. If I play too many games or stay up to late I start to be late. This is not the same as input lag which will absolutely make the pitches come in at 120. -
Pitch speed seem pretty consistent on HOF. I really do love playing on this difficulty as opposed to all star. Feel like i can really pitch
