Zone/Analog/Stride Hitting

[sandmac]

Love it but how do you use swing type (contact/power)?

Re: Zone/Analog/Stride Hitting

I've heard you have to press the swing type button (X,Square, circle) before the pitch. Then your analog swing will be that type

You use the buttons to determine swing type, O=contact, X=normal, Square=power

This is correct.

Before the pitch is thrown, press Square for Power Swing, or Circle for Contact.

Default Swing is X if you want to go back after selecting Power or Contact.

You will feel the controller rumble after each button press.

Re: Zone/Analog/Stride Hitting

Gosh man I believe you but that doesn't seem to work for me. I get no rumble.

I also notice when changing from stride to flick, I can finally just do contact swings (push forward on R) and then if I do a full stride it seems to do a power swing because I can tell the little yellow hit thing gets way smaller in the post pitch review (pci?).

Honestly I hit just as many homeruns when I don't hit the buttons.

What's confusing about this, to me, is that in the control screen they indicate you need to pull back for a power swing, which obviously you cannot do if you're using the analog with stride.

But I agree, the controller rumbles when you select your swing type pre-pitch. Does it carry over pitch to pitch or do you need to select your option each time?

X or Regular Swing is always default, if you want to Power or Contact Swing, you need to select it for each pitch.

Re: Zone/Analog/Stride Hitting

I think the Showtime thing is kind of a gimmick and arcadey, but I wanted to try it and see how it works. However, I can't figure out what to do when batting using the "Stride" hitting. I hold down R2 to slow it down, do my normal stride (longer though to match the pitch speed) and my guy never ends up swinging at the ball. I also tried using buttons instead and he still didn't swing.

No idea how to swing during "Showtime" mode while using Stride hitting.
