Timing/directional

Why did they add timing when directional was already in the game? What does directional do that timing doesn't?
I find it harder to hit than ever since switching to XBOX. I use zone only. No PCI anchor BS. I spent the day yesterday switching camera angles. You know it's going bad when all of a sudden you think something is wrong after 10 years of playing on zone.
They added timing for Switch players. Using the tiny knobs on the controllers is difficult, especially for large hands.

That’s actually a really good suggestion.I’m going to give it a shot!
Thanks man. I mean, it can’t get much worse, right?

OK believe it or not, I turned the pci off and hit a tank in the first at bat, three pitches in.
I’m just trying it out vs the cpu, and it feels weird but… so far so good. I’m now JUST looking at the ball.

Hey brother it changed everything for me. Switching my batting view to strikezone high helped tremendously too. Give yourself several games though to get used to it and just trust your instincts. Just think about all those years we played baseball games where ya just watched the ball and hit it. It’s just a big bunch of distraction to me. Your eyes and thumbs will take you to the ball - you’ll see just watch the feedback and before long you’ll be ripping it.
Just stick with it but I suspect you’ll see results quite quickly and, if not, you can always switch it back on but I’d recommend staying with zone hitting regardless of whether or not you choose to use the on screen pci because zone gives you superior control when you want to hit the ball where they ain’t. -

Well, it was just 9 innings vs cpu on AS but, 9 runs on 13 hits. 6 PP hits. Only walked once, and struck out 8 times (chasing high hard stuff mostly). There is definitely something to this.I’m going to keep at it for a bit. Will be interesting to see how this translates to online games.
Thanks tons, brother!

Very impressive I think. Especially that you’re already cracking perfect perfects on AS in your first attempt my goodness man that took me daysto do that lol
Your timing will catch up to your hand eye coordination as you keep after it but you’re well on your way it sounds like to me! WTG mang -
I have my pci fade out but basically do the same. I still suck but I’m improving

Thanks buddy!
The online thing is another story, but at least now I’m getting some weak contact instead of whiffing all the time. There is potential.I do struggle with opponents that pitch as fast as possible. I’ve always hated playing guys like that. It’s not a race, FFS!
