    I'm back again and this time for pitching.
    I have tried analog, pinpoint, meter and classic.
    The error in the pitches is absurd even with a 90 controll pitcher.
    From what I have seen there is no point in pitch location as you can pitch to the right side and it ends up on the inside left of the plate.
    Try pitching with Bob Gibson, go on and try it. 🤣

    I just got off the phone with a buddy on the same topic.

    He thought maybe it was realism built in?

    Maybe but then don't waste my time to let me pick. I'm throwing [censored] to players, ending up dead center for HR's. Not great

    I keep hearing this "realism" argument, and I dont buy it for a second! It's a baseball game, it's supposed to be fun, make you feel like you have controll over a player. There is seemingly NO WAY to increase the accuracy. Even on a good release (never seen a perfect release) it's faaaaaar too sporadic to even be considered a MLB pitcher. Maybe AA or Tripple A but "tride and true" pitchers are missing soooo bad you walk people or hit them by pitch.
    I pitched a game with Bob Gibson (currently 90 pitcher), I pitched in the center of the plate (reticle) for an entire game. I walked 4 batters in 8 innings and gave up 4 runs (all homeruns) on All-star difficulty...
    There is NO point to throw at a region. It misses sooo bad you can't "paint" the corners with any form of consistency.

    They said the little circle around it is the radius you may miss at but mine still go all over and hang constantly. If you miss it should only go in that radius and if you miss bad it should hang or go way off. A perfect should go almost exactly where you threw it

    LMAO You again?!?!? You always ask for these videos... you need a 1 hour long video of my performance with Bob Gibson?!?!? Straight up throwing at the center of the plate?
    I have NEVER seen a perfect pitch, they don't exist in ANY pitch mode type... from classic, analog, pinpoint or pulse.
    You obviously know it's true.
    How about you post ME a video of you throwing one and a 30 minute long video of you showing ME! 🤣🤣🤣

    Use pinpoint, if you get the hang of it you can consistently get perfect feed back and if you get a perfect the pitch goes pretty much exactly where you want it. I’m having no trouble painting the corners.
