For those of us who don't want to use zone, anybody know how I can help the CPU not suck so much at PCI placement? I'm about to blow my stack over here, the amount of good swings I put on balls right down the meatpipe and they get fouled off, popped up or weakly hit because he's swinging under, over, inside, or outside the ball... it's so F*#%&*! frustrating.
I'm specifically having this problem in RTTS. Franchise I've been having ups and downs but I don't feel like I'm getting cheated on meat pitches in franchise, if I swing good on them, I'll barrel them up, they don't always go out of the park or into the gaps, but they feel like I'm hitting them hard at least. My guy has 99 vision (not even including equipment) and great contact vs. righties, good contact vs. lefties. Maxed power vs. righties, low 80's power vs. lefties. Max clutch. I'm in the biggest cold spell I've ever been in, I can't barrel up anything and a large part of the problem is that even when I put a great swing on something extremely crushable the problem I listed above will happen.
I can't pull anything because if I swing on anything middle to inside a TAD early it always goes 80 feet foul, never pull anything down the line or just into right field. I feel like I wait an eternity on any breaking pitch and then I swing and I'm still early and hit a chopper. I tried bumping the pitch speed up and that barely helped, not enough to counteract the negatives of being late on more fastballs, when I already can't hit a fastball right down the pipe with good timing what am I supposed to do with fastballs on late timing
I've been playing this game since 12 and I've gotten what I consider pretty good at hitting. I'm not an elite "Legend only with zone analog, no guess pitch, increased slider difficulty" type guy (in other words, a masochist), but I play on All-Star analog (RIP Stride) and usually crush at that level, and have done well enough on HOF when I've ventured up there.
Lately I just feel like I'm a noob, nothing is hard hit, and if it is it's straight to a defender or dies at the warning track.
Maybe I just need to take like a week off lol. But I veered away from my original question: how can I make the CPU do a better job at PCI placement if I just want to use analog with no zone? Would that be the contact slider, the solid hits slider, or am I just out of luck?

Again i've tried Directional, to this day I can't figure it out. I hit so poorly on directional it's not even funny. By the sound of it I doubt you can do any worse on zone and the benefit is you'll be able to crush the meat pitches. You can also try influencing more on Directional if you're insistent on staying. Maybe if you influence where you want to hit it with good timing you'll hit more of the meat pitches.
