Hitting seems to be a lot harder than it was in mlb the show 21. I would normally be fine with a little bit of adjustments to hitting. Such as not having bad hits turn into home runs. But pitching clearly has the advantage this year and I don’t think it’s good for the game. The power has gotten overly nerfed and the PCI feels a lot smaller for all star, hof, and legend. It also feels like the timing for swings is way off. Swing timing is a lot later and it makes it almost impossible to hit against outlier. Especially considering that 80% of the pitchers that people are gonna use have outlier. If anything it should be easier to hit against outlier. And I’m also not getting rewarded for good swings just like in past years. And with the hitting seemingly being harder it’s not gonna help when I hit a perfect perfect line drive right to one of the fielders. I think some major changes need to be made in hitting before the game is released. The PCI size was great last year (Maybe a little too small in legend difficulty). The timing was something I was hoping would improve for this years game but in my first impressions it seems to be worse. If the timing on swings and PCI size can be adjusted in the right direction than I think this years game would amazing.

I know this is just the tech test and will probably change but co-op NEEDS the ability to play with friends. I doubt many people would play it if it was just random people. That kinda defeats the point.
