For those talking about the HR numbers, it is important to note that IRL, this past weekend set a new record for the most HRs in MLB history. HR numbers are skyrocketing the past two years and actually increasing week after week this season. I'd like to think the default slider settings should reflect a high level of HRs and players who don't care for that style should be able to lower sliders accordingly

Re: Hr's down after patch
Meanwhile I've hit 8 HR's in my last 4 games with all hitting sliders at default other then foul frequency down to 3. What difficulty level are you playing on? I'm on All-Star for hitting using directional.
EDIT - In my last game I hit 5 HR's including a 2-run shot in the ninth to tie the game and then back to back solo HR's in the 11th to give me the 7-5 lead and the eventual win. In fact all 7 of my RBI's were from HR's, game before that I hit a grand slam with Seager and those would be the only 4 runs I'd score that game. Suddenly all I can score off of is HR's but I'm certainly not seeing the power outage that I was for a bit there.Last edited by The Chef; 06-21-2017, 06:05 PM.Comment

Re: Hr's down after patch
This is getting blown waaaaay out of proportion. I have seen no difference in my offensive output than any other prior year. Even on Hall of Fame difficulty.
(1) When early in counts, layoff pitches on the corner. Do I feel squared up balls sometimes get popped up, yeah. But it seems like when that happens I'm swinging at something on the black and when you do the cursor gets really small and your margin for error is micro-small. You have to hit that pitch perfectly for it to go. As it should, the pitcher made a great pitch.
(2) Timing is everything this year. Take a pitch. Get your batter's stride down and the pitcher's delivery.
(3) Just as pitches on the corner make the cursor small, meatballs or anything off-speed and elevated give you a bigger cursor. Be patient at the plate and wait for the pitcher to leave something out over the plate. Other than line outs hit directly to the opposing player, rarely when I line up a ball with good timing does it not drop.
In summation. Don't get up and hack. Get your rhythm down. And wait for your pitch. Not rocket science.Comment

Re: Hr's down after patch
Did the +1 on solid hits and power. Played 3 games with the cubs, scored only 2 runs. And those 2 runs were on a HR in the 9th in my last game. Maybe I just suck at hitting now.
Hitting was perfect for me before these last few patches.Comment

Re: Hr's down after patch
Yeah I'm convinced my thing was just a slump. Now I'm back at it and feeling my results are very fair at the plate, all without any slider changes since the patch.
Maybe power is down since the patch, but I'm not complaining. Had some wonderfully tense games of late.
Edit: I also had the biggest blowout of the season in my favour in my recent stretch. 28-1.Last edited by TheWarmWind; 06-22-2017, 10:07 AM.Comment

Re: Hr's down after patch
The first couple games after this last patch I was putting what I though were good swings on balls and man the results were pretty poor. Ball didn't jump off the bat the same way. Then last game I crank out 5 HR. Even Tim Beckham hit an oppo field no doubt HR. I think 4/5 were no doubt HR.
I use directional on AS.
It's frustrating but it's part of why I love the game. My first year I get to the playoffs and I feel like the game is too easy. I'm scoring like 8 runs a game but I still lose in the NLCS after I blow some leads.
The next season I have the #1 offense in the MLB and then I get swept in the NLDS and score like 3 runs total.
