    Simple question re hot zones

    I don't understand hot zones in RTTS!! Should I aim to only hit balls in my player's hot zones? Does the number of hot zones change depending on where I get hits?

    Hot Zones essentially give your player the best chance of making the best contact possible, however, location of the PCI in relation to pitch location plays a part, as well as timing of the swing.

    Yes, at least in my experience with franchise mode (I don't play RTTS), hot zones will change over the course of a season/game.

    Hope that helps somewhat
    I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

    I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

      Hot Zones are dynamic on RTTS. and no, you should not avoid swinging at something not in your hot zones, but you do get a little boost in your hot zones. But at all times you should be looking to make solid contact on the pitch no matter where in the zone it is.

        I look at the hot zones to see where I (RTTS) am getting my hits from, but I dont use it when I am hitting. Thanks to ManicMatt, I am hitting a lot better now and in more zones.
        Really wish sports games played to ratings!
        Only thing SIM about sports games now, are the team name and players
        CFB 25 The absolute GOAT!!!
        MLB 23 FOREVER 20 is better, 23 just for Guardians
        Madden get rid of the extras (SS/XF, HFA, media, scenarios, game plan) or turn them down considerably.

          Glad I can be of some help. Baseball was my game growing up, and I miss playing real ball. It's not quite the same as the real thing, but I do love cerebral battle that The Show brings to the pitcher/batter battle.
