It's just swing early it's gone anything just above the sz as well swing early gone
It's another year of early being more effective than good.

Stop. Rewarding. Bad. Input.
How is it bad input? You are supposed to be early on a pull hit and late on opposite field. I’m more sick of the dribblers that keep going for hits vs me and the hr a foot outside the zone or pulling low and outside offspeed 500 feet. Oppo makes since but not pull.
Very early is bad input, guys shouldn't be rewarded for not being able to see and adjust to an off speed pitch.
But they did, the launch angle is why it’s a hit. It’s not bad input. Go watch real life pulled hits, they are “very early or early” that’s why it is pulled. If they were on time it would be up the middle

My guy, there are very early hits being hit without the pci being on the ball, don't make excuses for bad input being rewarded. They touted in their stream that online was going to have this new "competitive mode" it's clear that's not the case and players are rewarded for being bad more than ever.

I think the OP is a troll. Or really just not a baseball guy. And oh by the way the pci feedback for opponents doesn't work right. So how do you know where his pci was?
-
Tbf the swinging early is maybe just compensation for lag but whatever
-
It’s not only about being early, is about being early and pci nowhere near the ball... that’s being rewarded at a very high rate.. it has to stop.
Edit: If any of you say this isn’t bad i put then ny best guess is that most of your base hits are coming from this type of input

My guy, understand real baseball hitting and launch angle or quit complaining. Not to mention the opponents pci feedback window is not right. It never has been.

Correct, which is why there is so much push back on this from certain players.

Anytime something is mentioned that would take away bad play being rewarded there is always a part of the fanbase that will be very upset about it.

A much larger part of the fanbase, which understands that hitting a round ball with a round bat and trying to make it go forward is very difficult and sometimes results in luck. If they nerf hitting again this year, it's on you. Last year hitting became a coin flip of H/9 and confidence because of complaints like yours.

I don’t even want it to be completely gone but my opponent in that game had 4 hits with that type of input. IDC about giving one bloop occasionally becuase that baseballs but come on.
I had 2 P/P straight to the SS in that game I think and then the one time I barely touch the ball with my pci... EYYUUP the middle base hit

We’re not talking about nerfing hitting. What we want is the amount of bloopers that happen in game to be reduced, it’s happening so much that it isn’t luck anymore.
-
To be honest, I wouldn't care if you could only get hits on good or better, that will never happen but that's where I'm coming from. Very early shouldn't be a hit, that's randomness, that's not good input.
-
I’ve had just as many perfect/perfect me going for outs as bad pci going for hits. Just like the real game the Baseball Gods giveth and taketh away.
I know I know
Don’t reward blah blah.

Another post about a good player losing to a bad player huh. If I got a nickel....

This is a really awful take in retrospect. Last years game was far too offensive, with often ludicrously high scores in H2H play. This is probably because the PCI was generally too big overall and allowed too much area for contact, early swings were significantly OP and resulted in an unrealistic amount of home runs, pitching was seemingly random at times in respect to the final location of the pitch, there were too many juiced cards with 100+ power available to all for free, the entirety of H2H gameplay across all modes (Although RS would be the problem area for me) felt very unrealistic and arcade game like, with no reward for making more accurate input than your opponent with the controller, nor for attempting to adopt a realistic baseball strategy in the face of an opponent who would usually mash the square button at every single pitch and get rewarded with multiple home runs per game.

All my pp are outs right now legit just power swinging taking late flukes coz cba with the game now not sure whats changed but something has.

nah I lose all the time, don't care about losing to bad players, it happens sometimes. When they do beat me though they should have to have good input. But I know in your simulation world input shouldn't matter and just the ratings on the cards so why are you even here?

Did you play all season? I agree it was crazy, but it was better than the latter half where Bauer could eat you alive if you weren’t perfect perfect on everything because his H/9 was 125. I finished the year 98-67 or something in Ranked, by no means am I the guy complaining because I am a bad player. I’m not top tier either, but it felt more arcadey after the changes, not before. Cards shouldn’t drive input. The 70-30 balance they have this year is perfect and shouldn’t be touched.

That would leave us in the exact same spot as last year, I’m quite confident about that take. This is 70-30 input. Last year was 50-50 input. We’re all basically saying the same thing but coming from two different mindsets on what powers these bloop hits. They don’t have a choice - a physics engine is a physics engine. If we really want the change you’re asking, RS needs to be on Legend at any level. This stuff doesn’t happen as much as you move up the ranks.
