Why does the camera jerk so much when the ball is hit on RTTS defense?

I'll be honest. I didn't notice it till the second time I watched and I had to really look for it. I think some people are just more sensitive to camera changes idk?

Like I said, it's also worse at third, and probably depends on other factors like the TV and stuff, but yes, it's very terrible for me for some reason.

agreed. it makes me immediately take a wrong step n the wrong direction.

rtts 1st persdon/3rd person cam or whatever unplayable for me. not needed just want normal broadcast view the same as if i was pitching amd then fielding but obviously just balls hit to my locked player.

I am not seeing it either. I am not sure what the poster is talking about.

I basically can't tell where the ball is until it's halfway to me. This could easily be fixed if the camera just basically stayed still. Can this be fixed please?

docterhay.....do you get 'the pop up thing' as the 'camera jerks like crazy'?

No, I am talking about ground balls and line drives specifically. The pop up issue is completely separate (and, is also annoying).

I can't be more clear; there is absolutely a shift in camera perspective as soon as any ball is hit, and I'm pretty sure it's the abrupt centering of the camera on the ball, from some position that's defined to get both pitcher and batter into the pre-pitch camera view.

It is very easy to see if you take a few seconds to look for it, and, if you're one of the people like me who for whatever reason cannot pick up the ball because of it, it's incredibly, nearly game-breakingly frustrating. If it doesn't bother you, good for you, but it only takes a couple of seconds to see it and acknowledge it's there.

there are two things that are absolutely true: 1) this effect is there, and 2) it doesn't seem to bother a high fraction of players.

Probably my best option is to submit feedback directly to the developers since people here seem to have to work hard to even see the camera shift that I'm talking about.

I'm telling you straight up, the very first ground ball that was hit in the very first game I played in RTTS, I was like "wtf was that camera shift". I'm telling you I literally cannot see the ball. I'm playing on a 40 inch TV about 8 feet from the screen. So if you're not having problems, consider yourself lucky; I basically have to rely on the automatic defense because I can't pick up the ball until it's past halfway to me.
