Yeah good overview, I find myself stuck between Meter and Pinpoint. If pinpoint would change based on the pitcher confidence/energy that would be a huge bonus for realism. I find I can hit my spots way too well (even on Legend) with Pinpoint, whereas Meter adds the element of a larger sweet spot based on control/confidence.

They should make Pinpoint harder to hit with lower control pitchers (based on overall control and control per pitch), along with altering based on confidence/energy.

Pitching is way too easy and accurate on anything other interface than classic with no visual aiming help. I can consistently pitch CG shutouts with a sub 70 rated starting pitcher on anything else. Let the attributes matter.

Yeah, but classic is boring, no offense but it stops being a video game at that point and just a simulation. If I wanted to do that I'd just play OOTB.

So just absolutely dominating and schooling cpu hitters all the time doesn't get stale and boring?

Does meter use pitcher attributes at all? Or will the pitch go to your target everytime you have perfect timing?
