What difficulty is everyone playing on this year?

I wanted to get an idea what difficulty the community has been playing most of their games on this year.

I've been playing on All-Star the past few years because to me it felt like the most balanced difficulty. However, this year i've been absolutely dominating All-Star and for the first time in years i'm considering moving up to Hall Of Fame.

How is the Hall Of Fame difficulty (for those that use it)?

HoF. It seems HoF is last year's All-Star...or that is how it feels to me.

Edit: This is for hitting.

Default Hall of Fame across the board.

Thanks for all the fast responses!

Seems like Hall Of Fame is becoming a popular choice. Think I'll be bumping it up before my next game.

Re: What difficulty is everyone playing on this year?

I love HOF this year, for both hitting and pitching. You don't have to be 100 % perfect when pitching, but you can't live in the middle of the plate either. My strikeout and walk numbers have looked very good vs. the CPU because of the way HOF makes you pitch.

And HOF hitting works for me because of my style of hitting - I'll usually try to sit on a spot with the PCI and take everything that isn't near that spot until 2 strikes. The HOF plate coverage isn't large enough to let me fully cover the plate with 2 strikes, so I do strike out some. The CPU also seems to throw fewer strikes, which potentially gives me a chance to draw more walks (though I still have to have a good eye).

I play Zone/Meter, so YMMV. Nothing feels remotely cheap to me about HOF this year. It's just a good challenge if you're assuming a high level of control over your game's outcome.
