I just think it's silly to prevent EVERYONE from using it over something so small... especially when there are other solutions available, like simply allowing users to personally set what they want to play against.
Well if that was in the game then I wouldn't have a problem with it. I've been arguing why I don't like it integrated normally into online. If it doesn't affect me, I don't care. I just don't want to play against it, however when it was usable online it was affecting me.

That could work, maybe...but then you'd have to filter analog and zone plus analog. It'd really filter out a lot of potential players. If there was an option to exclude only timing or to exclude whichever hitting/pitching interface you wanted to play against and it was implemented properly then it might work.

That is just a lot of settings though, however with all of the current options such as: strike zone, variable ump, GP, hitting and pitching difficulty, hot zones, presentation, etc. I still find games quickly and against an array of opponents. They'd have to disable timing for DD though as everyone has to play on the same level there.

People just like to complain.
There's some irony there. I feel like the ones who want timing and are being very expressive about it don't even touch online, so how would they actually know?

Of course they don't touch online. Why would they touch online if they can't use their preferred batting mode?

Re: No 'Timing' Hitting for ONLINE Games Is Awful!!

as Ive always said no timing online then remove analog hitting which is basically timing with just moving stick forward and back. Dont give me the crap about how you have to move the stick left right etc no you dont its simply a pull push system and the PCI is placed for you

Zone+Analog is by far the most difficult to hit and to say that its simply a pull push system is a little ridiculous. I understand the original intent of the OP, they should allow every type of hitting but Zone Analog (to me) is by far the most fun and most rewarding and most difficult. Just pressing a button for a swing would get old for me in about 3 seconds.

So you'd play online a lot more with timing?

I just don't buy that. I think people are just complaining, because they think people are hating on their style. I am not personally. If they had a filter for it or it was used for unranked...that would be fine with me.

Have you not experimented with other hitting interfaces??? Analog is pretty similar.

Im talking about Analog itself, analog plus zone is an entirely different animal
