@Ding-Dang_Donkey said in Way too much offense:
So far I think SDS did an amazing job with the game, but I’m really frustrated with the amount of runs scored in DD games. All of my games are like 15-14. It’s just not baseball. It’s way less fun because it feels like a home run derby and the winner is the one who happens to clear the wall one more time rather than fly out to the warning track. I think the problem is it’s way too easy to punish mistakes. Every pitch that doesn’t dot the corner is a bomb, which is reasonable, except that even the guys with the best control are consistently missing spots very badly. In real life it’s so much more difficult to square up major league pitches, so the game should reflect that. Since it’s just pressing a button and moving the left stick rather than actually swinging a bat, I think it needs to be more difficult to hit, especially hit it hard.
I have played 10 games of ranked seasons and not once have i had this so called home run derby. Not before the patch and definitely not after.
