I swear it’s like one guy posting all of these under different names smh, nobody cares that you lost, this is baseball, you lose 2-win 5-lose 1-win 6, if you change it anymore it’s no longer a sports game.

Huh? This is my first post here in awhile..
Don’t tout competitive gameplay in your pre-release streams if the game isn’t going to be competitive simple as that..

Also, I won, sure the game was closer than it needed to be but I won

️That’s good, but seriously, I hate that the game is moving away from simulation, you’re telling me you’ve never gotten a very early hit. Yeah, they are very annoying, but it’s just something you deal with, thank you for your time.

Simulation is a bad thing.. go play ootp if you want sim. In an online video game User input should be the most important factor by far.

I know exactly what you mean, sim and realism is a bad thing and takes away from user input. You know what’s not realistic? Me hitting .330 overall through 400 online games last year or me hitting .460 with finest bellinger through 400 at bats, that’s not realistic. So what happens then? Simulation factors will take away from my input to make numbers more realistic.

Ah, now I see, yea I guess. I’m just saying, yea very early hits shouldn’t be in the game, but if those are the only hits your opponents can get, that means you’re doing a pretty good job pitching.

You’re not actually hitting a bat with a ball, just playing a video game that simulates you doing so. If the whole thing is inescapably a simulation, at least let’s have a realistic one. I’d guess if the game accurately simulated bat on ball physics and didn’t feel like every single game was played on the moon, you wouldn’t be hitting .460 with Bellinger over a significant statistical sample size. Let’s be honest here - If you’re the kind of guy who chooses Shippet every game and home hunts, you’re quite happy with simulation factors influencing outcomes in game anyway.

The problem is when you’re winning a game say 14-6 and your opponent goes very early double, very late rbi single, early single, early 3 homerun, That’s a big difference now being up 14-10 instead of 14-6

I avoided Shippett as much as possible, miss me with that, I’ve played and beaten you multiple times before.

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
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.
Last year hitting became a coin flip of H/9 and confidence because of complaints like yours.
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.
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.
You finishing 98-67 in ranked tells me everything I need to know...
What does it tell you other than I did a solid job getting to the 800s frequently with limited playing time?
