Re: Directional hitting on critical situations has to be predetermined
Timing Window is off in Directional Hitting. It feels like you are always slightly ahead or late on pitches, I do not feel like you are ever RIGHT on it.
Now, I am not talking about what the feedback says, you will get good timing...but visually it doesn't seem to line up. As a result I have bumped Human Timing to 7 on sliders and it helps.Comment

Re: Directional hitting on critical situations has to be predetermined
I feel like directional is much improved from last year. Last year I had to have human solid contact at 10 in order to make it feel at all legitimate (still got popouts and weak grounders). This year I have it at 7.Comment

Re: Directional hitting on critical situations has to be predetermined
I don't get into the scripted/not scripted stuff, but I do think that timing is an issue. I miss lots of pitches using directional that I swear I'm dead-on regarding the timing of my swing. It's baffling. I may consider a timing bump of +1-2 to see if that can give me more contact on balls I swear I've squared up.Comment

There's something to this. Juan Encarcion is my worst batter on the team. And he's got the best ratings. It could be coincidence but I do not believe soComment

A player who successfully gets a hit 3 out of every 10 at bats is considered an all-star in this game.Comment

It's also very possible that you can time a pitch perfectly and still hit the top half of the ball and drive it in the ground, popup, hit it hard but right at somebody, etc.

Totally agree, round bat ,round ball and all that.
I chalk this up to people want realism, until they get it.Comment

Re: Directional hitting on critical situations has to be predetermined
Lol. Well I personally don't have any complaints about directional hitting. In terms of critical situations (if we are talking about the things you can sim to in franchise) i want to say i was successful more often than not while doing a season sim just to look at how things progressed.
In my Mariners franchise I'm 6-5 and hitting around .225 as a team I think. I just chock it up to "thats baseball" and move on. I'm actually a firm believer that if I was extremely successful in this game right from the getgo i wouldn't appreciate it as much and would get bored. Sometimes it feels good to try and fail, it makes succeeding the next time feel that much sweeter.
Then again although I'm a Yankees fan I'veb grown up watching Mets games as well with my father and i think this is where i've grown that "we'll get 'em next time" mindset from lol!
