Can't get swing feedback to show when pitching in Franchise

[JstnJ]

Wondering if anyone else has seen this: I can’t get swing feedback to show when I’m pitching in Franchise mode. It only ever shows pitcher release info. Swing feedback is set to On, and I’ve tried toggling related settings, but nothing changes.

Setup:

Franchise mode, 30-team control

Using Franchise to Fidelity’s rosters

Using recommended settings from S&B’s thread (including profiles and global settings)

My main team is controlled by the “HUM” profile; the other 29 use “SIM”

Here are my current settings:

Offense
Ambush hitting controls: Off
Batting Cont: Minimal
Player lock baserunning display: Off

Defense
Team color player marker ring: On
Player shield: Name + Shield
Reaction display: Off
Pitching information: Pitch info
Pitch feedback: Off (tried this On too)

Shared
Pitch history: At-Bat sequence
Strike Zone: Off
Hot Zones: Pitching preview
Pitch info: Off (also tried On)
In-game notifications: Off
Dynamic difficulty update: New level
Confidence: On
Swing feedback: On
Baserunning diamond: On
Scorebar: On

Other
Reverse game log: Off

I’ve combed through the settings and can’t find any obvious conflict — just wondering if this is a known issue with 30-team control or Franchise mode? I have definitely seen swing feedback while pitching in franchise mode in '25 before.

Extra oddity: Sometimes the broadcast region shows the CPU team’s region instead of mine (e.g. I’m the Braves, but it says “Northeast” when playing the Phillies). Might be normal, but figured I’d mention it just in case it’s tied to the profile assignment logic.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Re: Can't get swing feedback to show when pitching in Franchise

So yea, here's an update: something is definitely bugged.


I found that if you select the "Modern" broadcast style in the pregame settings for franchise...you can see swing timing of CPU batters. It is still not completely correct though...it doesn't show the "bat swing" visual, only the "Swing timing: too late" text on what appears to be the PCI overlay.


In summary:

• Selecting regional broadcast style results in no swing feedback from CPU batters.
• Selecting modern broadcast style kind of works, but is still bugged in other ways
• On Human batting side, CPU pitching feedback still shows even while having every Pitch Feedback setting set to OFF
