    I can't stand the PCI. It drives me nuts. This latest update removed guess pitch and location, which is an epic fail, considering real MLB hitters can try to swing in a certain part of the zone.

    I know people make fun of those using hitting timing, but I don't want to look at the annoying PCI on my screen and just want to enjoy the game the way it was. Ugh.

    I’m the same way, been using directional for years.

    Try classic pitching and for fielding turn the meter off. It will throw based on fielders attributes.

    I'm not judging or telling you how to play by any means, but if you want to really enjoy and improve I'd highly recommend switching to zone hitting and getting accustomed to the PCI. It takes some adjusting and there is a learning curve but the reward is so much better.

    You could even use zone hitting and turn the PCI off so that it doesn't block your view.

    I understand that people may not like zone, but trust me. If you wanna be good at the game and compete at the high levels, you NEED to learn zone hitting. Once you start facing people on HOF and people who know how to locate pitchers, hitting will be a nightmare.

    Also guess pitch was the worst thing they ever could have done for DD. Leave that to offline play. Guess pitch has no place in online DD.... what are we doing, trying to be the 2017 Astros??? Bang bang... OOP! I know what's coming... give me a break lol
