The PCI anchor is nothing more than a starting point for your PCI. Despite having the word "anchor", you can still freely move the PCI even after setting it.

Ex: Lets say you choose to set the PCI anchor at the top of the zone because you're expecting a high fastball. If the pitch is down in the zone, you can still press the L-stick down and the PCI will move down.

It doesn't matter where you place it, although when I've used it, I've placed it in the zone I thought the pitcher may be throwing in (inside, outside, high, low) and its worked ok.

I'm still out on whether I like the PCI anchor or not. I like the idea/concept, but I'm still adjusting to it.

Re: pci anchor

I like to anchor the PCI in the high and inside corner, then move my PCI down to the low and inside corner (it helps prevent me from dropping my PCI and seems to be the location I struggle with). Then if I need to react to a pitch up and in I just release the stick to snap the PCI back up.

This is pretty much what I do as well.

Press L3 to activate the setting of the anchor. Then move the L stick to the part of the zone you want the anchor to be set.

The dots represent the 9 locations you can set the pci anchor

Remember you can still move the PCI even after setting the anchor. Its just a starting point.

Re: pci anchor

I see. I might dabble with this, not sure. I play zone with pci off. I might have to turn on just to get use to it before going back off.

That said, when it’s on but pci off, the anchor is still on correct?

And if that was confusing, I’m sorry.

How now brown cow.
