@GooseOnEm_PSN I feel like its harder to control when it does not snap back to the center. I also feel like there is a reason they made these new hitting inputs. I maybe onto something ^

Help me out here please. So if you press the button to swing the pci stops moving right? You have to place the pci first, then swing correct? Which i feel like is extremely hard to do with outlier fast balls. Barely have time to push the button to swing let alone get the pci to the ball. What alot of us do is swing and move the pci at the same time, that is were alot of us are going wrong. The method of swing and moving the pci at the same time seemed to work better in previous years. I feel like the pci glitches alot more now in this game, it doesnt move to where we want it. Does anyone else notice this? Or maybe im just getting older and dont have the reflexes anymore. Id like some input from good players.

Big zone hitting works for my old a s s. I dont need perfect hits just good contact. Everyone wants to be like those professional u tubers. 90 percent of us cannot place the pci where we want it like them. 50 percent of perfects end up as a single or an out anyway.

They need to loosen up the hitting. Its so hard to hit in this game. Every year hitting feels like it gets harder and harder.

@Belli_bomb_PSN I think its just getting used to and new game. Takes a while. Try a new a new controller if still doing it in a few days.

@Dolenz_PSN I think you are right thank you. I struggle with hitting the button while moving the pci at the same time. I think im hitting the button before the pci gets there. If I keep doing it. Ill try big zone hitting. Assuming they put that in the game for this exact reason

Why when I know im clearly moving my pci is my feed back showing it dead center alot of times after I swing and make contact. Am I maybe not moving it and think I am?

@GradektheBard_PSN no actually your opinion does not reflect the majority. Good try though

@GoozeFn_PSN that's exactly what they are doing. But they are incorrect. Its actually the opposite. After everyone plays with a full team of 99s for a month they get bored and leave.

@GoozeFn_PSN we agree for the most part. Starting the power creep higher is setting off alarm bells for me. Not good. This makes 75 percent of live series cards useless. So dumb.

@GoozeFn_PSN if you read what I wrote again^^ i stated unless its a live series collection card or a legend collection. So we agree. Its not rocket science. Slowing down the power creep will keep more people interested in the grind and game longer. Looks like some of the world baseball classic players are already 90s. Thats not good. Too fast. 90s out of the gate that are not live series or big collection cards are not good for the longevity of the game.

I do not want to see a 100... 99s by July. Its stupid. Ill go one step further i do not want to see anything above a 95 that is not a live series collection or a legend collection by July. I do not want to see anything but a few cards above 90 the first two months of the game if they are not live series collections. Period. This dumbs down the game and makes it boring. Slow down the [censored] power creep!! It takes most people 3 months just to finish the live series collections

@iBonafideScrub__PSN being unrewarded within the hitting engine is the main issue this year. Its very disheartening and frustrating to say the least. Unless you are a top 1 percent player we are not good enough to overcome these things through out a game. You need to pause the game punch your pillow or something. Calm down and try to move past this non sense that happens every single game. Its very toxic and will take its toll on you and mess with your mind set during the game.

"""You gotta remind yourself, its about the process""" quote from the announcer. I get one of those literally every 3 innings.

I just want them to fix the constant high exit velocity line drive outs right to a fielder. Maybe they need to make the out field bigger, or something to prevent fielders from running down every line drive, make speed matter more. Placing a 60 or lower speed fielder in the corners should hurt the defense way more than it does in game. The amount of line drive outs with exit velocity over a 100mph is not realistic. This seems to be the biggest complaint when people talk about hitting being unrewarding this year. Happens way too much. Yes I know real baseball line drives go right to someone. But its not a commen occurrence. In real baseball if someone squares up the ball with high velocity its usually a hit.

@The_Joneser_PSN bro all you have to do is go and look at the thousands of Google reviews complaining about the same stuff. Its not just a few of us. You want to come on here and discredit what people are saying. Makes you look like a tool. Not everyone who complains comes onto these forums. Most people dont even know these forums exist.

@Talkingben9558_XBL I agree! How are they doing it then? Cause im matching up with a few of them lately. Every hitter has a 500 plus average. I hit around 330 ish this year. Prior years I was closer to 400 ish. 500 is crazy!!! Especially this year.

@DemIsE4_XBL im completely convinced the players that are hitting 500 plus are in a better geographical location and are seeing the ball better because of better server or connections on their end. Yes some people that play this game are really good! But their connections are playing a bigger roll then people think. Like how are some people hitting 500 plus online with every batter? When half of my great inputs are line drive outs right to someone. It feels impossible for anyone to be able to hit 500 consistently.

What! Yeah how about a big fat NO. The op has to be trolling.

@TheBigPapa55_PSN that's because in events most players arnt trying that hard.

@DemIsE4_XBL so whoever has faster internet speeds is at a disadvantage? Thats wack! They need to get their own dedicated servers.
