Fastballs are too quick.

Austinnotterpop also says it. It is a major issue. And how many people are just quitting playing because of it or trying to struggle through it without saying something. My guess is a great many.
Adjust to it. Sit fastball, adjust to off speed. That should be every players approach in this game since it’s baseball.
-
You wouldn't say that because you're a really really good player or so I've been told. Those of us who are average or a little above average are the ones complaining I would bet.

Allmustfall16 says exactly what I am so you're a liar and need to quit posting. Or start posting the truth. He is just the first one I saw. There are plenty of others but you are no longer worthy of my respinse
You’re quoting two guys that didn’t even post in this thread, that’s rich. And that’s not at all what @allmustfall16 is complaning about. Your reading comprehension is flawed

I didnt say it was ALL anyone was complaining about NOR did I say it was just this thread. I just said it was what players are complaining about. That does not mean it was the only thing.

And I have 2 upvotes for my post so I'm not alone so that also shows how much you know about this issue.
2 upvotes!? well, [censored] I retract my statement, instead of getting better at timing and hitting the straightest pitch in the game, you should complain about it on here until they turn this game into beer league softball, but underhand slow pitch might still be to fast for you.

I played over 1000 games last year and was about 25 games over 500. So many many games at all star. Sorry but you dont know what your talking about

players are complaining about adjusting to the timing window or the timing window not being accurate, not about pitch speeds, but those two upvotes have you all filled with [censored] and vinegar, so you know, forget about getting better, complain on here so that people that are actually decent at this game have to play at your level.
-
If your that good make it to a higher level. Is it that hard for you to figure out?
-
I mean the guys PSN icon is literally a troll so...
-
Pitch speeds are great. Get a better TV/monitor...
-
Then maybe I should have said they are not accurate instead of too fast. It comes down to the same thing.
-
Pitch speeds seem slower on all star than 19..

I thought pitch speeds were slower than 19? Does anyone know if pitch speeds are the same as 2019 right now?
I sure thought so too. Nolan Ryan was great on allstar for a minute there until people adjusted.

Its because they are slower. Anyone saying otherwise doesn't have a clue
-
Sorry but they are faster. It's not even close lol.

Before 1.4 I was 14-6 and after am 8-12. Half the losses were due to the window timing for fastballs. At least half my wins were games I just got lucky and ran into one thrown down the middle and won 1-0 or 2-1.

Ah yes, but none of them compare to the seemingly 200mph beach balls that whizzed past in ‘18

When SDS listen to people like the OP, we get the $hitshow of the last couple of years.
If you are only winning half your games, there's a reason for it. If the fastball is too fast for you, good.
I'm not elite and have never made WS. There is a reason for that. I need to git gud.
OP might need to readjust his own expectations and put his abilities into perspective.
-
I dont expect to get to ws. I'm very happy to make championship. I think I did 4 times last year. But at least I was competitive and felt like I could halfway get the fastball and adjust to the breaking ball but now it's either sell out for the fastball or guess offspeed and have little to no chance. Yes theres a reason for that... it's because they changed the mechanics of the game. My skill is at least as good as last year but that reaction window should be on hall of fame not all star. All star is the 3rd of five tiers. Middle of the road. Average. So slightly above average players should be able to compete on that level. And that is not how it is right now.
