This is it. PP lazy flyballs.
Waste pitch high out of zone cuz hes timing only and only swinging at fastballs. Oop lets reward him 0-2 with a bloop hit swinging at one above his head.Arenaldo PP wtp... not even a hit..thats all i ask. Be rewarded for good input.
Wanna waste an 0-2 slider in dirt or in backfoot of batter...haha jokes on you. We will just hang it to be banged. This game is absolutely dog
-
Just struck out a guy ten times and he had more hits off late timin than i did total. I had a PP flyout to track w utley and he golfs a waste pitch for a hr. Lose 3 1. Two meatballs down middle and squared up w good timeinf and both line outs to cf the same exact play. Yes 69 evo ground balla squeak by the infield. This game is absolute trash and rewards you for literally being bad.
-
Strike a guy out 17x..i struck out 2 times.
Give up 5 hits 4 runs...8hits and shutout.
So the 3 of the 4 times he actually makes contact is rewarded w hr w zero good timing.
Yet having good timing and ball in middle of pci is a lazy flyout. I just dont get it. -
Except the % of that actually happening is low. I have a winning record and id bet ive yet to even play a one armed man.

When a batter swings in real life. Does he adjust for pitch location or just time the pitch and hope it hits his bat?
A major league hitter, in particular--but anyone who had played a lot of baseball--has taken so many swings and drilled swings to specific locations (tees, toss, etc) for so long that adjusting for location when batting is muscle memory. It's timing that screws with that; you decide, too early or too late, where the swing should be and you choose the wrong location because the pitcher has deceived you and disrupted your timing.
Maybe you know more than Warren Spahn, but I happen to trust his take a bit more.
The advantage of timing is pitch location does not matter
I use analog, so it absolutely does, but even if someone simply pushes a button, a well-placed pitch beats timing/directional roughly 76% of the time (most timing/directional players hit about .240). Anyone with "skill" should do pretty well against those odds.
and takes out half the chess game of pitcher/batter.
Playing Missile Command while batting adds nothing to this aspect of the game.
I can pound inside fbs in key situations and get my opponent to want to sit up high on fb...and then change location on them and even with good timing of the fb theyd miss due to location. So timing is not the only factor
Again, with analog, that plays out the same way for you--except I'll actually swing and miss instead of foul it off. With a button-push, you're still looking at that 76%.
...and try timing a pitch while also moving the pci to get contact. That is inherently harder and should be rewarded more but its not.
It is clearly rewarded more, or no one would use it.
RS is for user for user skill. Its set to competitive settings which states that. Then you are rewarded w better players the farther you make it.
If RS was meant to exclude a particular interface, you wouldn't be allowed to use it.
Theres no reason for timing/direction only online unless unranked.
I prefer ranked to unranked, so I'll keep doing that, but thanks for being so open minded.
I wanna know whos hitting hrs while being late w zone? Its a popout almost every time if youre barely above the inner pci and late.
It should be weak contact most of the time, so that's a good thing. But it does happen, unless the in-game feedback has been lying to me. I'm not saying that it happens as often as it does with early swings (this should be rare, also), but it does happen.
I
So pitch location has zero to due with hitting? So if i swing w perfect timing every time at the same level..im gonna magically hit a ball at my knees because..well muscle memory?? Even when you hit off a tee...coaches move the tee around to different get this...locations.
If i used timing only and swung with power every time those just late swings would be hrs.
Pure analog doesnt make the user take location into effect either.
In RS w contact and power maxed. Letting the cpu "AIM" for you, esp on AS level, is an advantage esp if you swing w power every time.
Yes online should be user vs user. Not user vs cpu.
I guess we should just select a pitch and let the cpu do the rest too. ️Also..for the handicapped...nothing prevents them from playing the game online. Just not ranked.
So basically you’re against handicapped people playing the game?
Sorry you lose to players using timing and directional. That’s completely on you.
Youre quite touchy w the handicap talk. Calm down. Ya when its handicapped and made easier to hit. Yes.. i lose at times. Havent made world series w zone. Go ahead and get to hof level hitting and see how long ya last in it w zone.
But carry on white knight. -

Getting to the world series? The past few seasons ive been given the WS rewards even tho ive never made it to the WS in DD. So i for example i have andre dawsons card. But never made it to WS..???

Why is good timing and ball in inner circle of pci not rewarded. Ive also had more outs on PP than i have hits. Literal lazy flyball outs on perfect perfect. Yet people get hits on inside sinkers they are late on. Which should be sawing them off. Every time an update happens the gameplay gets worse. Esp when they emphasize no gamplay adjustments were made. Someone else needs to start making a game.
-
That is tru
-
Is the inner pci the barrel of bat? Im confused how since patch..being barely above.the center dot is now a lazy flyball. And it says im late even when bat meets ball in green. So i shut that off to save my sanity. But i literally get the same outs every inning. Is my timing perfect every time for being just late?
-
The difference is w timing..location and break on ball doesnt matter. Its 2 things they dont have to worry about. And with the randomness that is pitching. Itl just float one over middle enough and be considered meatball and timing only blasts it. Just my opinion..
-
Just played a game w 19hrs in DD. So dumb and a pointless way to play. Ruins the experience and the bad part is these kids think they are good cuz they spam power button in outer space. I hit one 477 w contact swing.
-
Its getting out of hand w high altitudes short fences..esp w timing only and power swinging. Then rewardin them w the parallel advancements due to hr OP at stadium. Its sad and ruins the game.
-
Id be happier if they put a Games played restriction on them and then those cards were retired. This was how it was in 2015 i think. then in your stats you had a hall of fame section to see thier stats and such.
-
pulled a trout..couldn even make my roster. sold him for 248k
-
i havent had any issues in that regard this week. But when a d/c comes after a hit that scores a run or a hr...i dont think its the game. Usually thats completely randomn or freezes

@Easy_Duhz_It_ said in timing power swing trash:
Basically what you're saying is that you're mad that someone else found settings IN HIS OWN game that worked for him. You're upset that people won't handicap themselves to play against you so you can feel better about yourself.
just want a fair playing field esp on the lower levels. So basically youre mad at me for wanting to play users based on thier skill and not the computers. you sir are the problem with online gaming. But Easy Duhz it huh

tel me you use timing only without telling me.
no, its an online game set on competitive which is supposed to be user skilled based. not AI aiming for you. itd be like playing in a COD tourny with auto aim on. but carry on. you dont get it.
Hitting Feels Amazing
Only game ive ever played that rewards being bad.
