I thought that SAME thing! I loved that game. First baseball game I ever played. I actually just played it a few weeks ago.

I thought that was the one he rapped in ???

""Just Ca Ca Call me Jr"" LOL

If they didn't bring in anyone new, I think it's the Dev Chris who does them...though I could be wrong

So if square is power and circle is now contact then is triangle now used for bunting with classic batting ??

Was that using classic swing though? It seemed (from the jerky step movements) that someone was trying out the stick swinging, so it could be that you select the swing ahead of time (Square=Power, Circle=Contact) and then keep the same swinging motion with the R Stick.

-This is true, I think it was confirmed that you choose your swing type before the pitch. And I dont see how people keep saying the hitting was herky jerky, when the guy did the step and load before the pitch was thrown it looked smooth. He was loading way too late on the swings though. It looks like you load when the pitcher is about to release, which is spot on.

Correct, it was analog he was using and you use the face buttons to pick the type of swing you would like.

I'm going to take a wild guess that it's still for normal swing on classic batting but I could be wrong :wink:

Yea but with right analog hitting being on, that would be circle(contact)...What would be the point of contact swing on X?

You might have misunderstood me. My "jerky" remark wasn't a commentary on the hitting...never said the hitting was herky-jerky at all. It looked just fine.

I only commented on the jerky way he was playing with the step movements before the pitch, which made it clear he was using the analog hitting.

Correct..

[] = Power Swing
X = Normal Swing
O = Contact Swing

Contact Swing is new.

[] and X stay the same as they are in the game now... (Power and Normal)...

O is Contact, a new swing type, that is going for just contact (slapping at the ball) and trying to put it in play or possibly stay alive and build a count to your favor.

Ya I got that..I was asking how it will work for classic batting

On Analog is X used to bunt or is it something else ??

I was just saying in general from posts I have read, I didn't get that at all from what you said, I was agreeing with a statement that I thought you made... My mistake
