Fastballs are too quick.

If you never played the show prior to 18 and 19 then you have nothing to compare it to. The last two years were a joke pitch speed wise. Everybody could pick up a controller and not be late on a fastball but still wait on off speed. Pitch speeds are completely fine, if you can't catch up to a fastball it is a skill issue.
This man is right. 18s pitch speeds were laughably slow. Believe someone did a comparison from 17 to 18 of Aroldis Chapmans 4sm. 99 mph in 17, 99 mph in 18. However when split frame by frame they found out that in 18 Chapmans 99 mph 4sm was the equivalent of an 88 mph 4sm from 17 frame by frame.

Yes they did. This patch or last patch and look at other threads. There are more complaints than mine
Last patch. Patch 1.04.
Wasn’t last patch just an adjustment to the pitch speed slider? That’s how I interpreted it and that’s not a DD change.
That would essentially make fastballs seem faster though if the speed ratio is greater.
“Pitch speed slider has more range” doesn’t sound like a universal change to me. That sounds like they added the option for those who play offline to make pitch speeds more realistic if they desire to.
It was a universal change but imo they didn't change the fastball speed. They added greater gap of fastball timing and offspeed timing to create more strikeouts. Timing window decreased for fastballs while remaining the same for offspeed.

It's a joke
-
They did not change the timing between difference types of pitches as much as they changed the amount of reaction time to get to the fastball. It's too quick on anything all star and below
-
It’s really not that hard to hit a fastball if you’re sitting on it. It could be the screen you’re using though. If you have a tv it often has input delay unless it’s on game mode. That input delay puts you a little bit behind what is actually being processed, so it makes a lot of things seem faster. Last year when I switched to a monitor from a tv it made a huge difference in my timing. I no longer had to sit dead red the entire time and could easily adjust to different pitches. It helped me go from DS to WS in a matter of a week or two.

I'm using same monitor as I was when I first started playing.

Yeah I didn’t mean to say that they’re the same as before, but the only increase was in the slight 1/4th increase of each difficulty more than it was a pitch speed buff.
-
Please don't compare any pitch speeds to 18, nobody likes slow pitch. Pitch speeds are fine on all star, it's not supposed to be an easy game.
-
Then make hall of fame. It wasn't slow before it was still difficult then. There was nothing wrong with it. If it was so slow for you then you should be good enough to make a higher difficulty.

LOL, skepple is one of the top players in the game. WS each season
-
Then he shouldn't be complaining about areas of the game that do not affect him should he? I mean it has no relevance to him. Of course all star is too slow for him lol!
-
How does it not have any relevance to him? You don’t think he sees fastballs?? We all do and nobody else is saying fastballs are too quick except you. All 3 pages confirm that
-
Pitch speeds are fine they just need to stop the bs good okay contact result on good squared up balls! Like how effing hard is that? Jesus Christ sds

I disagree. This is my 3rd year playing and fastballs have always been hard to hit but now irs laughable. There is no comparison to 18 and 19.
The thing is, even if pitch speeds are a little too high, the game is in a good place after 1.05. I’m terrified that if the community does too much more complaining, SDS will do another crazy patch and make the game less enjoyable. This is basically what happened from 1.03 to 1.04.
That’s what happens every year. Just play the game man. Nobody’s going undefeated and everybody getting the same results. Go down you’ll always be able to come back. Eventually it’ll be unplayable for the people who like it
-
I'm saying he doesnt play at all star level. If hes that good he plays hall of fame and legend almost exclusively.
-
And sorry but a TON of people are saying exactly what in saying and more than 3 pages say that. The people are saying the game is broken. Are you paying attention?
-
They say its broken for different reasons. Not broken cause they can’t catch up to a fastball
-
Uhhhh that's exactly one of the reasons. When they say reaction time is impossible its the same thing.
-
I just read the entire thread, you’re the only one complaining about the pitch speeds. Everyone else says their fine. Time to acknowledge that you have a problem with pitch speeds, not the game
