    RE: Number 1 WS Player Agrees, Patch was bad idea

    They’re focusing on the wrong thing. Hitting was fine the way it was. The problem was that too many pitches seemed to float over the heart of the plate regardless of pitcher attributes and user input. Hence the reason so many balls are ending up in the stands.

    Edit: the only problem with the hitting pre patch was that sometimes balls that were hit with good/ok contact would leave the yard when your pci was hardly on it. Or sometimes you would get good/ok contact feedback when your feedback showed you were practically right on the ball.

    Compared my pitching statistics from 19 to 20...

    Let me be clear I’m not a great player. I’m average, maybe above average at best. I don’t go 12-0 and I make WS but that’s about it, I’m not great.

    I only looked at the era, HR’s allowed, and walks allowed. Despite me playing 167 less games in 20 than 19, I have given up 161 more walks, 229 more home runs and my era went from a 3.85 in 19’ to a 5.35 in 20’.

    I think these numbers help support the statement that User input doesn’t matter as much as it should, either the human pitcher consistency slider has been reduced or human pitcher control Slider has been reduced, or both. to me it’s clear that pitching has lost a lot of its skill gap.

    Hopefully in 21 pitching will get an overhaul. Curious to see if any of you guys have compared your stats.

    Hitting isn’t what needs to be patched, it’s the pitcheing that needs to be fixed

    Pitcher attributes and user input don’t seem to matter, if your pitch placement isn’t perfect then the ball just ends up nowhere close to where it should be.

    I use analog pitching so we’ll reference that, if you don’t put that ball perfectly in that circle forget about it. The ball will end up not even being close to where you want it. Hence why there are so many balls being put into the stands.

    What is the point of control or bb/9 stat if every pitch you throw ends up being a floater. Even if you do get perfect release it’ll still end up either missing the zone (if it’s close to the corner) or it’ll end up catching way too much of the plate. Hey I’d get it if it was in late innings and your pitcher is losing stamina but this happens right out of the gate even with the games best pitchers. Pitching feels nonexistent, it’s a total slugfest right now. It honestly reminds me of 18’ and that’s not a good thing.

    RE: Timing window feels...off

    @HoffsDrawlar said in Timing window feels...off:

    Feels the same way for me, it felt so great the first few days and the patch ruined it. I threw two no hitters today also as it seemed like my opponents felt the same way. They just could not hit anything hard. 20 innings in a row without giving up a hit, garbage.

    Hitting was fine the way it was all they needed to do was fix the pitching control. I can’t tell you how many balls I’ve had perfect release on with guys with great pitchers miss the black or just end up floating down the middle of the plate.

    Anyone else not pull a diamond in BIAH packs?

    Ok so I don’t buy packs like at all. I’ve bought 2 packs all year long and that was only because it was a ducks on the pond pack. So I don’t pull a crazy amount of these packs, but I’ve collected a fair amount of these packs through just grinding out team affinities, programs, etc and I have not pulled a single diamond in any of these BIAH packs. Even when I’ve got the BIAH bundle I still haven’t pulled a diamond. I’ve pulled a few diamonds in standard packs and even got two diamond pulls as a game reward but never in a BIAH pack. I just don’t get how I haven’t at this point when they have 1:15 odds and I’ve ripped maybe between 30-50 of these packs.

    Anyone else’s luck this bad?

    Timing window feels off, I just can’t explain it man, it feels really weird right now.

    I have no clue what to do

    I have no clue what I need to do to get a win. I went from being a World Series player in 19 to not being able to make it further than DS this year. I’m struggling just to make it past wild card. All star difficulty is a joke, it doesn’t matter how good my pitching staff is how well I locate pitches, everything ends up in the seats. Currently on a 6 game losing streak. Despite me outhitting my opponents in almost every game I’m still continuing to lose. I really don’t know what to do. Playing on all star is more stressful than it is fun. I’m losing to guys with records hardly above .500. My lowest pitchers era may be a 5.00. Every game has been something stupid like 8+ runs for both teams.

    What’s the deal with hitting?

    I’m playing on HOF difficulty. Last week before the update I was hitting .306 on the season and rated 895. Now I’m down to 790 and hitting like 270 something on the season. What gives?

    I am getting under the ball quite a bit, but for as many balls that I’m getting just under I’m hitting just as many balls that are hit almost perfectly for good/good lazy flyball outs and good/ok (even though It looks like I’m dead center on the ball in the feedback) it feels like I’m hitting with a wet noodle. The ball just doesn’t feel like it’s jumping off of the bat when I make solid contact. I’m not trying to complain I just want to know if you guys have seen your average significantly drop off too. Did I miss something? Was there some change in the latest patch? Idk what’s going on but it’s really starting to frustrate me.

    HOF pitch speeds

    What’s the consensus on them? I personally find them to be too fast. I’m not a great player by any stretch but in past titles I’ve made World Series and from 15-19 had a consistent batting average from .284-.287 And saw a small decline to .270 in 20. But this year my batting average is below .250. And despite me being rated 838 this ranked Season I’m batting the Mendoza line. Most of the games I play on HOF are extremely low scoring. I don’t understand how fastballs on legend offline are slower then HOF online. What’s everyone’s thoughts? Should the pitch speeds be adjusted?

    Anyone else miss a single dot pci?

    Like wedge last year where there was just one dot for the center pci. I personally find 3 dots as the center pci to be too distracting. Especially with power guys who have the top dot as their biggest pci dot. I find that I tend to just get right under the ball with the top dot resulting in pop ups and fly outs.

    For the most part I really like how you can customize your pci but I hope for next year they give you an option if you want one dot as a center pci or three dots as center pci.

    Your game has been forfeited

    I just got this message then a loss after the game froze while playing the event. I was up by 10 runs, and I was hitting at the moment. Anyone else get this message during a freeze off?

    @redsman09_psn said in Pack Luck:

    Last night I pulled both Trout and Acuna.

    Which pack did you open to pull that Trout?

    I got him in a standard pack from the standard pack bundle I got for winning mini seasons.

    RE: Pack Luck

    Same dude, On opening night I pulled Kyle Tucker (who I recently sold) and Vlad. Last night I pulled both Trout and Acuna. However, I'm hanging on to them to do collections.

    I personally like HOF speeds. Legend speed to me is just ridiculous. So I'm not with you on this one.

    Hey if you can hit it more power to ya. I find it extremely difficult to turn on a fastball on HOF.

    Just quit if you get a legend game then. I've played one and struck out 17 times and lost 1-0 on a squeeze. It's stupid

    Well just played my game on legend, got 2 hits and lost 2-0. My opponent had 7 hits. It was a mess. I will say I’m smacking the ball Around on HOF since playing on legend online.

    RE: Where did the community stats go?

    @jacksonvance35 said in Where did the community stats go?:

    @redsman09_psn said in Where did the community stats go?:

    Last year on the website SDS had posted community statistics that showed what the batting averages of different contact resulted in with batting averages, and also showed what the average “batting average” among players was on each difficulty. Where did that go? I’m really curious to see what the batting average for the community on higher difficulty looks like this year. I really hope it makes a comeback.

    I’d wager it’s pretty bad

    If I remember last year HOF batting average was around like .274, I’d be willing to bet it’s around .220 this year.

    Late on everything

    I don’t know if it’s pitch speeds or the timing window but I’m late on everything. Most of the games I’m only tallying generally less than 5 hits on HOF and most games feel like they are really low scoring. I’ve never been as bad as I am this year. Now I’ve never been great but I normally hit around 280 or so. My Lifetime batting averages since 16 have been between 270 and 287 but this year I have to be batting like 250 or worse. I can normally make WS or at least high 800’s but this year I’m struggling to just stay above 700 because it feels like there’s no offense.

    And yes before someone say get a monitor, I already have a 1ms monitor and my connection is wired. So it’s either game related or my brain just can’t compute with my eyes in time. Any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated because I’m having an awful time playing right now.
