What is going on with hitting?
-
it's b/c of all the crazy pitchers in this game and pinpoint pitching where every pitch can be located perfectly
-
I have wired fiber and see warping pitches all the time. It gets worse as time goes on. My theory is that the people with good internet get tired of the laggy bs and quit or go to other games. This causes the few players with good internet to match up with even worse connections, resulting in very poor online play. Always seems to be decent to start with more players and then gets worse the more people leave. Just a theory after years of analyzing this stuff.
I could list a whole bunch of stuff that laggy online play causes:
bad fielding animations
noodle bat
more bloops and bleeders for opponent's
better results for hitting for opponent's
baserunning errors
slow jumps on base stealing attempts
lag on tag up plays
warped pitching
list goes on and on -
Hitting is awful right now. You know it’s bad when you get up in the 6 and 700s and most everyone you face is hitting like .150 with everyone on their team. Been my experience anyways. Pitch speeds are insane and pci is tiny. Absolutely no fun whatsoever for me. People are going to purposely lose games just to stay in all star

https://mlb21.theshow.com/universal_profiles/lucas8181/game_historyLet's go ahead and walk through this together. You will see I was gone for almost a month, then TA came out, after reading about the AS content and new TA content, I downloaded the game again, a WEEK after the content dropped. I checked it out for two days, same game, deleted again.
It's not tough to figure out if you do actual looking, instead of trying to snipe someone with a "gotcha!"
Try again

Nope. I was out of town coaching and teaching for 3 weeks, no internet, no PS4. Two weeks before that I deleted the game.
This is so fun, ya'll "got me". The game sucks, especially with faster internet.
Spider man is great though, and the new Ghost of Tsushima content is going to be fantastic.
Keep telling me things you don't know though, it gives me something to do while I drink my morning coffee.

My usual competition are hitting in the 300s but I've also noticed that most people I'm playing are only hitting in the low 200s with the new ta3 cards. I think they messed with hitting when they released to me ta cards.
Why release great hitting cards just to nerf hitting all the while not nerfing pitching? Do yall tak pride in how boring your game has begun? Is ea paying yall to run off your player base in hopes they buy the new madden?

lol, I'm sorry your servers just went down again, in July. This was my last attempt at a sports game, too many problems with all the others. Maybe the MLB will finally let lose, and let other game developers have a crack at baseball.

RBI has been out for the past few years and EA just purchased Metalhead Software which makes Super Mega Baseball (outstanding game)

I’ve been playing this game since 2006, only started playing online in 19. Between 19 and 20 I probably had 1000 RS games, just trying to get better at the game. This year I have played 69 ranked games, and it’s a result of how horrible online play is.

I believe I tried a demo of Super Mega Baseball, it seemed like a fun game, but there was a learning curve. I might go back to it next year. Now that we are getting to the best part of the year for new releases, I'm going to have other things to keep me busy.
Thank you for the suggestions!

It’s pretty simple. PPP ruined this game. And now that the H/9 and control on every pitcher is maxing out, it’s a nightmare.
The best thing SDS could do is disable PPP, and rework it for next year.

You talking 'Ego 99 difficulty?'
You haven't lived until you try to hit pitch and win on that! 🤯 -

On top of pinpoint making everything on the black, even when you do manage to square one up it often goes straight to someone. If you are gonna make good user input give fantastic results for pitching, hitting needs the same treatment.

All the had to do was make analog and meter more accurate which they actually did do. Making PPP to me was an overcorrection and the game plays a lot worse at the higher levels because of it. I really wish it would get removed but the streamers love it, so it's likely here to stay
