How does it match you vs players? It seems like 80% of my games the other person is WAY above my level of play.

Question, I use that basic pitching where you just hit a button and toss it. Is that ok for online play I should I try to learn one of the harder models like the meter for pitching?

Just curious what people are thinking? Anything new or cool about the hitting or pitching I should know before Tuesday?

Any tips on using it? Seems pretty easy but really hard to time.

Hey there partner. Just out of curiosity, does it seem as if you press the button to stop the pulse and yet it’s off my a few tenths of a second? Only reason I mention it is because that’s happened to me before in the past and switching to a wired controller fixed the issue. I’ve since learned a lot more about how to improve you Bluetooth signal and haven’t had the trouble again.

If it’s not the case, then I’ll encourage you to simply keep on using it and you’ll nail the timing to the point (in only a day or two) where you’ll forget you ever even had an issue with it.

I’ve also read somewhere that upload speed (or was it overall speed?) might factor in also, but I’ve never personally had this be the case but I’ve heard it’s a thing

I thought I was crazy! Yes!!! It seems off even when I hit it spot on that it lags behind like half a second! I am using a wireless controller so Ill switched to my wired and see what happens!

Is there a way to stop the notifications in the game? Every time I sell a card, that little red number pops on my screen. It's playing havoc with my OCD.

I wish. I wish we could block it

Just take a break. It happens

I try to hit batting practice for 30 mins everyday

So far right now I notice my biggest issue is I swing way too early. I guess that's a bad habit I have. How did you guys fix that if and when you had that issue?

1. How do I change how I pitch in the game? Pinpoint is not working out well for me.

2. What cam angle do you use to hit and what can you suggest to help me improve hitting? I always swing too early or too late

Buying the game this Thursday when I get paid. So, for someone who sucks a lot at this game how is the hitting and pitching this year? Any big changes from last year?

I cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I currently suck horribly at pinpoint pitching

Just got me a series X This morning. Cant wait to see the show on that baby!

Any word when The Show 23 is coming out?

@joshjays44_PSN said in Hitting:

Being good at hitting is pitch recognition. Since 99% of you play at a lower speed than max, go into the batting cages and crank up pitch speeds to max even if you don't use it. Take swings for 20 mins and try your hardest to recognize the pitch. I've been playing Legend at max speeds for years now so its easy for me but since most of you are online/DD players and you're use to slow pitches it might be difficult. You'll eventually get better at pitch recognition with the higher pitch speeds. After you've done that, go play your regular nooby online games with default pitch speeds and you'll have a much better idea of what pitch is coming next.

Ill give this a try tonight! Thank you!

What did you guys do to get better at hitting? What should I be working on or what I should I be doing daily to get better?

What do I need to do, practice or just start working on so I can get better at hitting

Anyone point me to come good videos on youtube to help me with just some basic's and tips and tricks. 0-10 online currently and I want to get a little better so I can win once and awhile.

I wish man. Would be awesome on steam
