    Camera Movement on will help recognize when a pitch is too outside or too inside for what you want to do. It's essential. As I fine tune more I'll be back but hope that helps any of you struggling with it. Peace. Love. Positivity.

    Honestly though, if you're giving tips and trying to help people get through a learning curve, why not nudge them in the best direction possible.

    You're essentially giving someone a broom handle and trying to teach them to shoot pool, while he's giving them a pool cue and telling them to remember to chalk up.

    Don’t hijack his thread; I’m perfectly fine facing directional hitters; easier to win. If people like it, their choice.

    Noatter how you feel about it some people just prefer directional. It's easier to do all I just wrote than to try and track a ball over the zone that either coming at 100 or break 2 feet at 78. That's why I make it for those in that boat.

    Oh yeah forgot to mention...
    Best results come from a variation of Normal/ Power/ and Contact swinging. Just holding square will not work out well as pitching speeds and locations change throughout game so should your swing choice to fit the situation as well. If you want to poke it over a third or first baseman power will send it right to the outfielder. Be specific.
    Peace. Love. Positivity.

    If they use it how I've described it's not as bad. Most people have no idea what the arrows mean when they use it so this should help them out a bit.

    I appreciate what you are doing. I used directional for a long time before switching to Zone but directional just has to much RNG.

    They all have RNG to some degree. Any RNG is bad. But RNG or not if they not pressing the buttons or knowing what they doing with them arrows it's all for not anyway
