Gave “timing” hitting a shot for the events
-
I’m all about having multiple options to play the game but there should be restrictions on head to head settings.

No restrictions but it would be cool if you could filter settings for online play

How about directional?

Yes! Like this idea

I took a lot of time to become a decent zone hitter last year-- the theory being higher risk/skill for higher reward.
But I am totally not seeing the reward aspect this year.
And if what you say is true, why would you use anything BUT timing or directional before Championship Series? -
I agree that using timing with a single button approach is a bit easy, but that isn't the only way to use timing... I use it with analog stride inputs, so you need to time your stride, the pitch, and pick the third of the plate to cover (inside, middle, or outside by moving the right stick in that direction). That way, it isn't that easy...

It was far more rewarding than zone and that is ridiculous lol
if you have patience at the plate you’ll smoke a majority of the pitches inside the zone. This might not be as rewarding on HOF or Legend but for events/BR its the way to go. Just be patient and contact swing or regular swing and enjoy the cheese lol
Zone hitting feels off this year, perfectly hit balls with almost perfect pci placement are outs a majority of the time… so just eliminate any chance you have of making a mistake with the pci and use timing.
Kinda sucks that a brain dead mechanic like timing hitting is on par with one that requires some skill
That's unfortunate. Thanks for testing. I'm sticking with zone 100 percent I like the challenge.

I like the challenge too, it’s just annoying when you do everything right and you end up with a lazy fly ball… I get that people want a realistic game and there is a lot of failure in baseball… At the end of the day this is a GAME the player should be rewarded for being good at the GAME

I'll forgive you because you're new to the game, but timing is older than zone hitting. Last year it was called "analog". This year, they gave us the option to hit the button instead of using the analog stick, mostly because some people have disabilities with their hands, and hitting the button is easier for them.
