At it again this morning. May have to bump hitting difficulty up a notch. Offense has been sort of effortless for me so far. Lots of home runs and lots of high scoring on the offense for me this year so far. I’ve lead off 4 games with a HR and my lead off hitter isn’t a HR by any stretch of the imagination. Seems like the ball comes off the bat harder and faster than last year.

What are you set at currently? I'm on HOF, no slider adjustments.

Does the cpu swing and miss a ton, and easy to get 12+ Ks against them nearly every game? Sliders away still near guaranteed chase swing and miss? Really trusting guys who had this problem last year to let me know. Are the "extra long bats" from 2022 back? Really hoping so! Literally the only thing holding me back from purchasing.

I'm finding the game seems to be better tuned out of the box than last year, as far as pitching to the CPU on HOF. But I'm only a week in to my franchise so its a small sample size.

What level and what hitting type are you using?

I've noticed the past few years when I play with Zone I defintely hit more bombs than I do in say Directional. It was that way for me at least, last year and it feels similar this year.

As of right now I'm playing HOF with directional hitting and it's been good so far, but it's a pretty small sample size since switching from Zone.

It’s playable. But I like the feedback since I suck at classic pitching. Hope they fix it

It might just be a visual thing, and not actually an effect of the pitch itself.

Also since you're using classic pitching, the late or early release of the pitch I think is tied to the pitcher attributes, not tied to you clicking the pitch button.

You can turn off the Pitch Feedback like me to get rid of the annoyance.
