have you considered putting hitting on Dynamic Difficulty? should take around 30-35 exhibition games to get you up to veteran, I believe

What method are you using? Zone, directional etc... Directional hitting is all about your timing and the players attributes while all other methods are based on user skill, so to cut out some variables you might want to try playing with directional hitting.



The camera view can make a big difference in your perception so you might want to change the one you're using. I use The Show 16 camera view but wide and catcher high are also good options.



The pitch speed sliders may need adjusted. You would think they might need to be slowed down which very well could be true, but in fact they might need to be sped up. I personally play on HOF with max pitch speeds where I have literally a fraction of a second to make a decision, but I tried default allstar difficulty and the ball was coming in so slow that my brain couldn't make any sense of it. Even though I had tons of time to judge the pitches I couldn't hit anything. It just didn't seem natural.


Lastly, practice, practice, practice.

Yeah, being patient really pays off in the long run this year. I still swing at a lot of garbage too, but I like to tell myself that I'm getting better.

can someone link this to Warm Winds directional hitting guide? really great stuff there. I'd do it but I'm posting from my PlayStation.

also, finding the most optimal camera angle is paramount
