    I play Pure Analog pitching and hitting (timing), exclusively. Always have. Always will. Seeing the swing marker while on offense is essential to having success. I agree that the defense does not need to see it, but it is necessary while batting to be able to duplicate good swings and fix bad swings. Knowing the result of the swing, not just what happens to the ball, affects how I grip the controller. It also affects how I place my thumb on the stick. I cannot overstate how much more difficult it is without the visual representation of swing location.

    You gave button players an additional advantage with the PCI-anchor thing, which is just straight up cheating if you ask me. AND, you take away a critical game element for a pure analog batter. There are so many disadvantages to playing head-to-head Ranked Season games against button players when using Pure Analog. It's already unfair, and you made it even harder on us.

    Please reinstate this tool back in the game with the change that only the offense is able to view it.

    I spent significant time in Ranked (0-5), Program Moments, Conquest, RTTS and online Homerun Derby. Whatever you guys did, it made pure analog hitting and pitching much harder across all modes. That's fine, but please do not make it impossible.

    Also, in RTTS, there are far too many two-strike bunts. It does not happen in baseball except in rare situations. It gets taught from little league. A foul ball bunt with two strikes is an out, so you don't do it. It definitely does not happen at any pro level as much as it happens in the game.

    Thank you. I love baseball.

    Everything they’re doing is catering to the online crowd. The only real changes they make for offline people are things meant to bring them to DD, their online hub.

    I’d have more respect for SDS if they just got rid of franchise mode and came clean about DD being the be all and end all of their vision.

    I am really confused. I see that the PCI marker appears after your swing with Zone/Button hitting. It does not appear when using Analog/Timing. Is there a setting I am missing? Can I turn on the marker while use Analog/Timing? Was there a bigger change to Analog hitting that I do not know about? Please provide some help here. This has changed my entire experience playing the game.

    Sorry could not take rest seriously after reading this treasure of a statement.

    Reminds me of the "all roads lead to ultimate team" email leak.
