Impossible to Hit!!!

[KnickNation17]

I can't hit in this game for some reason. All I do is ground out or Pop out for the entire game. Someone threw a perfect game against me not to long ago. Im on Veteran hitting and on Timing. Ive tried putting my contact all the way up and it doesn't work. Its getting to the point where I don't want to play because Its so frustrating. Im using the Mets Btw.

Any suggestions or sliders or tips or something I just want it Hit!!!

Try changing to Zone hitting, on Veteran you shouldn't have to worry about moving the PCI and will have more plate coverage.

Swallow your pride and play with Rooke hitting. I'm playing on Veteran with analog controls and have no problem hitting. But I played on Rookie hitting for three weeks until I got the hang of it.

Still Cant Hit Please Help!!!

I posted a while back about not being able to hit and I still can't hit in MLB 12 The Show. Ive tried Everything. Ive bumped up solid hits almost all the way and put it on rookie and Im still getting 4 hits per game. Ive tried Zone and Timing hitting and still nothing.

Please if there are any tips or any sliders in the vault that are balanced please let me know. Its really becoming frustrating and I can't enjoy the game

Thanks

Are you 'late' or 'behind' on everything? You might have a really laggy TV.

Don't swing at anything that isn't up. Once you are able to read pitches better, you end up working counts, and getting better pitches to hit. Take strikes. If you don't get anything to hit, just take it as an L for that AB. I swear I get punished when I don't use baseball logic and swing at bad counts...

Put the COntact slider back to default, and lower the Pitch Speed slider, and start there. Maxing Contact at 10 won't really help anything.

If you are using Guess Pitch, don't.

I love it when people come on and complain they suck at any level that is not the easiest. Man, play on rookie!!! Don't worry about it, nobody has to know.

Re: Impossible to Hit!!!

What if you set the hitting method to timing and the difficulty to rookie ? still nothing ?

Re: Impossible to Hit!!!

One thing you may want to try is to set the pitching on all-star to get realism of walks and pitch counts and try lowering your hitting difficulty. Raise the difficulty level every few games for one game to assess your progress. Adjust the sliders to suit your play style to achieve competetive games. The game offers so much variety to match each individual's ability. You or nobody should care what level you play at. Enjoy the game.

Do what Bobhead said. Just play on default except lower the pitch speed. That's the only slider that matters IMO. Different tv's (lag) and different pitch reconigtion abilities for users is what separates the good hitters from the struggling.

This being my second year with the show, i play with pitch speed reduced to 0. And that gets me realistic results.
