I've always had a tough time recreating the batting experience I had in my playing days while playing the show. Simply put, everything looked like a strike to me in previous versions of the show. Offspeeed pitch depth was hard to identify, and I just couldn't get the same feel I had in real life.
That all changed when I created a custom hitting view. Basically I have the camera as high up as it will let you go at the plate, and it's zoomed in as far as it can. This results in being able to barely see the hitter (only one shoulder is slightly visible), but the experience is SO much closer to real life.
The camera looks like it's tilted down towards the pitcher instead of up at the pitcher (like the traditional catcher cameras)
Ideally, I would love to be able to create a camera angle from the hitter's eye, but this does the trick for now.
I'm taking pitches that are balls more and more, and it's just an awesome experience.
Give it a shot!
I took last year off, so I'm not sure if custom camera angles were possible, but I'm very thankful the SCEA team built this feature.
Give it a shot, it's great!
