    Timed Hitting:Looks like I was wrong for the most part

    Before i bought the game the idea of a power swing used with a cursor(i hate cursor batting but i can live with it) just sorta ruined the game for me.

    Well today i decided to test timed hitting,before i started i thought itd be a HR fest,but when i finished my first game using it the results were pretty good.

    3 runs and 11 hits,nothing close to what i expected to begin with,but the thing is all 3 of my runs were scored on 3 solo homeruns lol.

    but overall it made the game so much more fun for me since i love the high heat style batting.....it isnt even close to being as great as high heats batting,but it really helps

    so for the long time hig hheat fans with WSB,try out the timed hitting (hopefully it wont eventually result in inflated HR #'s)

    maybe you can make timed hitting even harder if you raise cpu pitcher ability and lower the cpu throw strikes?

            Yes raide the pitching to high and pitch speed to very fast and play on allstar or legend plus use timed hitting and turn off pitch preview and turn off strike zone and turn up sliders to allstar or so and its is pretty darn tuff and challeging.

                Drawback: Swing replays look like crap... The bat magnetizes to ball. Check it out.

                    I noticed that too. It actually looks like the bat doesn't track the ball when you use timed hitting. It seems your bat is on a different plane then the ball but you'll still hit the ball.

                    I wish the analog stick did something on timed hitting (either to try to go with the pitch like MVP or to pick a zone where the pitch is coming in like HH, as I understand HH - I don't have it). Just pressing the button is a little too simple. I don't think they spent a lot of time (pardon the pun) on timed hitting. I'm going to stick with the cursor and just try to get a feel for it.

                        Are you sure that the analog stick doesn't do anything? When I was playing with the "swing feedback" on it said things like "swing over / under the pitch". How could this be when you are supposed to be only pressing a button? Does this mean that you can only hit pitches down the middle?
