Directional hitting all day everyday because it feels like you’re really batting, like you’re in the box .... I can’t stand lining something up to hit, that’s arcade stuff ...
But when your really playing don't you Have to the line the bat up with the ball?
Yeah but it’s all timing... and putting the bat on the ball in that brief second you have ...
So...it's timing AND aiming
No, not aiming. The basics of hitting begin with a consistent swing plane and hours and hours of t-work. If someone has to “aim” to hit a ball off a tee, find a new game.
How do you hit a pitch that's not in the middle of the zone? do you change your swing plane or just swing in the middle of the zone every pitch? Just asking for a friend..
As long as you time it right you will hit the ball duhhhh
So if I time my level swing right i'll hit the ball in the dirt?
Don’t you know how baseball works?
As long as you time it right you will hit the ball duhhhh
Exactly you are now a baseball Sensei.
So like I said...if I time my level swing right I'll hit a low ball in the dirt?

You do realize it is impossible to hit a ball below the level of your swing no matter how you time it

With zone hitting you can square up a fastball and get perfect perfect and it can still be an out ... Because it's baseball. Also with zone hitting you can hit a low pitch and get great results. With directional the pitch can be right down the middle and you swing good.. aka perfect timing.. and you pop it up. That happened to me multiple times when I feel I'm not seeing the ball well so switch to directional for a inning or so to track the ball better. I've played guys in BR that literally can hit anything in the zone and get great rewards for being so good at hitting. So I don't really understand your complaint. If you read the forums A LOT of people are having a hard time this year compared to years previous. But if the basis of your complaint here is that zone hitters are at a disadvantage than that's ludacris. What's your fantasy?
This is always what irritates me about most of these complaint threads. "I hit perfect perfect and it went right to the outfielder for an out." or "I had an exit velocity of 109 and it gets caught WTF!".
Yeah, that's the point of baseball. There are 9 guys in the field trying to defend against your hitting. The best hitters only get hits 30-33% of the time. More times than not, those are going to be hits but not always. The only thing you have complete control over is hitting it over the fence.
I see this argument a lot....The best hitters only get hits 30-33% of the time...you can't use this argument because you are hitting with an entire team...not an individual player
Huh??? The same percentage applies lol
No it doesn't....you have players who go 5-5 4-5 And such...the individual and the team are not the same %
I'm not explaining it right obviously lol
No you're explaining what you think is right.. only, it's so very wrong...
Sure, a hitter goes 5/5, then the next goes 0/5... And so on.. which makes an average for a team. It's how percentages work. And doesn't change how 30% of the time is still an elite hitter IRL, no different than a team.. it doesn't change. -

This is the worst the game has played. First off I asked the question on livestream to RAMONE. Dude isn’t anything but a liar. I’m pissed off.
Here it is. Speed up hitting. Make zones smaller. Bet. I enjoy that part. Perfect. Makes it way harder to hit. Plus strikeouts is fun. But why is it that people who dont use zone hitting get such an advantage on perfect perfect. Zone hitting is Good, Okay. Good,good. And you know what those end up as? Lazy flyballs to the outfield. Squared up zone hitting is garbage. No reward.
You say the same stuff every year. I dont care what it is but if you ever want a competitive scene make online hitting universal. Make it all pure analog, directional or zone. Select one of those.
I personally prefer zone because that takes skill. But at this point in the game if you use zone your a chump and at a significant disadvantage. Tell me Im wrong and your a liar.
I dont mind catching L’s to someone who is better than me. I enjoy playing someone who is good competition. What i dont enjoy is striking out teams 15 times a game and giving up only solo bombs. And I cant put runs together because good good isnt good enough.
Im going to keep playing because i dont have anything better to do. But you all really lost a seriously dedicated and competitive player tonight man. Started to lose its touch in 17 and all the bells and whistles up overloading content when all the consumers really want is a working game.
It isn’t all terrible. Ive enjoyed some of the little things you all fixed. But at this point I dont trust any of you. If you want to contact me please feel free to message me on PSN. I will give you insight on all of the little things I feel is wrong. Who am I and why do you think you should care what I think?
Im a valued customer who supports you year in and year out. Someone needs to contact me personally.I agree 100% on making zone hitting universal specifically for all competitive online play. I’ve said it since the very beginning. Having dumbed down ways to hit like “timing only” which they changed the name to “directional” to placate people and hide the fact it’s still a dumbed down way to hit, isnt and shouldn’t be an option for online competitive play. It ruins competition. Period. To see who is the better player in any given game, a real competitive setting is playing with the same settings and conditions.
I understand the “why” for other options. They want to appease the masses. Well you can’t do both my friends at SDS. Either you want a true baseball sim and have competitive balance, OR you can appease people who lack skill to place the PCI on the ball AND swing on time.

No [censored]. And when you’re actually pitching you don’t a have a curser to line up before you throw your pitch. Does having to move a curser to aim your pitch when playing a video game take away the realism to? And when you’re fielding a fly ball in real life is there a big [censored] ball marker to tell you where to stand to catch the fly ball???
You know in real life I don’t have to plug a HDMI cord into anything if I want to play baseball. Having to plug this cord in and turn my TV take away all the realism of me playing this game
The way some of you think is completely off the wall

We’re talking about batting, how it feels when you actually hit, we know it’s a video game for Christ sake, you don’t have to point out the obvious. But the game does thrive to be a simulation so whatever you can do do make it play like a simulation you do... So calm the &$): down with your BS dude...
