Hitting during the Day vs Hitting during the night

[milldaddy35]

Do any of you guys find it easier to hit at night, or during the day with overcast skies? I just played a game @ Camden during the day, and I couldn't track the ball at all, and only recorded three hits. I then played 2 night games in a row and had 7, and 11 hits respectably. Is anyone else noticing it is harder to track the ball during the day than at night or with dark skies?

I do. I find that tracking the ball on sunny days is a bit more difficult vs at night or overcast.

Having always played as the Cubs, I'm very much used to playing daytime games. I probably do track the ball better in the daylight than I do at night. Either way, I definately do the worst playing in the rain. Both at bat and pitching.

I thought the thread was about real life day vs night.
Me personally, I always hit better on Saturday mornings with a cup of coffee by my side.

LOL that was funny. Everyone looked at me weirdly here.

I just started a franchise with the Orioles. The opener was a day game at Camden. Skies were sunny and i could see the ball ok. Around the fifth inning the shadows crept over and I couldn't pick up the ball to save my life (which i loved). Then in game two (a night game) i still found myself having a very difficult time simply seeing the ball at all. Tonight i'm going to give fish eye a shot and see if that helps at all.

Wide is another good camera angle if you haven't tried it. That is what I hit on. Able to pick up low pitches easily.

Maybe it is the Fish Eye camera. I agree with the person that played at Camden the other night. All the hits were before the 4th inning, then the shadow messed me up bad. Is it like this at every stadium?

I use The Show 15 camera. Pitcher is a lot closer than other cameras.

I don't think it's limited to Camden. I've experienced the late afternoon shadows at other parks as well. Most of the games are night games though. If you do have an afternoon game i guess you could always change the weather to overcast and that would prevent any shadows. Or just start over with a team that plays in a dome

Better at night, some stadiums during the day are too bright. Playing at Texas kills me.

Never too bright for me, but my eyes really suck at seeing in the dark, both in real life and on TV/video games. I've always found myself turning up the brightness on the TV when playing non-sports games that are dimly lit.

I have super sensitive eyes and I would LOVE it if they would add an option to make all games across all modes be played at night.

Even if I can track the ball during the day I usually can't play very long because my eyes get so strained. If I play season and pick overcast or night I can play for hours!

They need to institute a sensitive eyes mode!

I hate playing at Safeco in the evening because it seems like the sunlight glows on the batters eye and i lose track of it
