@@ryankelley2429 yoooo. 😂😂 my pitcher is tired as hell by the 4th inning. It takes the other teams pitcher the minimum, and takes me like 20 pitches to get 1 mf batter out.
@@shamrock31 whenever I'm pitching, if the batter hits more than like 4 fouls (on two strike pitches) I purposely throw at their head lol. Screw it, I would rather work around a base runner than throw 40 pitches in inning.
I was skeptical to use the strike zone camera because I didn’t want to lose the view of my batter, but i finally bit the bullet and decided to try it. Absolutely a great decision, it makes it 10x easier to read pitches and get good contact
bro, im a gamer, im a legend at pitching no matter what difficulty. Now when it comes to batting.......... I swear to god it seems like ive never played the game in my life. help me.
So have I just got it and I’m really disappointed it looks and feels like a 2k8 game but the mechanics are much worse and it’s not as smooth pretty weird for a modern game to look so crappy but I’ll still play
I'm amazing at contact but my timing sucks so the ball goes deep but not deep enough or it goes on the ground and goes by the shortstops. I'm also new to the game.
Tip for some players having issues with batting... make sure you aren’t letting go of the stick before you swing! I realized I kept moving it and letting go right before I would swing and I would miss everything. Now I’m making sure I hold my stick where I want the PCI. Sounds self explanatory but when you go quick it can happen!
Great tips, I'd also like to add WATCH TAPE The first HR I hit, I recorded a game clip and watched for A) What pitch was thrown B) What swing I used and most importantly C) Where my PCI was. This helped out a lot, especially when learning what swings to use against certain pitches
same. I had a batting stance that could swing the ball deep but I would always get out. and then I also would have the ball just go low. I think batting stance is key and for your swing motion if you want to get the ball to rise more or to get more power in your swing then make it a one handed swing.
I appreciate this. My weakness is not feeling comfortable moving the PCI on the left stick. Just feels weird on my thumb. Going to just keep practicing. Thanks man
Let alone beginner bro and same thing I use to play the other mlb shows and mlb 2k13 and this game I can’t hit anything but a damn pop up no matter if I am good timing or perfect pci perfectly on ball , contact , regular , power swing it don’t make a difference I can’t figure out how to get the damn bases loaded 🤦🏽♂️
They should really have a preview of the PCI in the menu when you're changing it so you don't have to go back and forth lol. Basic user experience stuff.
I'm playing mlb for the first time. I've only played for about 5 hours on Xbox yesterday. I followed all your tips and saw immediate improvement, the tip about higher difficulty was the one that made the most difference. I still have really bad timing but have hit 11 home runs in about 7 games. Hoping to practice some more. This is such a fun game.
I did this in high school and it seems to work at least OKAY for the game. Watch the pitchers hat. When they release the ball you can get an idea of where it's gonna go based on that.
Press right trigger when u go up to bat. It will show u the players stats. Use whatever swing depending on their stats. If they have more power, use power, if they have more contact, use contact. Keep in mind power is a lot harder to hit since the zone is smaller. U can use normal with anyone without worrying about stats
I'm new to the show (series X) and I'm in the UK. This video for a newbie is super useful, I could use tutorials on some of the basics such as substituting players mid-game etc. I've got the pin-point pitching down, so I'll be looking to play you at some point :) keep it up bro.
Seems like when I swing the bat especially on Veteran difficulty it’s a fly ball or it’s a ground out. Unless it’s a perfect hit it’s an out for me and feels like I can’t even hit. It even is the same for hits that are considered good. I didn’t have these issues in 20.
It's kind of annoying for me because I've tried to play like moments or March to October and I've gotten so many unlucky outs. I've have good swings or even perfect but my pci hasn't been the perfect placement. But it wasn't even that my pci was bad, it just wasn't perfect
It’s ur aim then. Ur aim has to be good also. Try pressing right trigger before u hit and see wherever the pitcher has been throwing. Before he pitches, already prepare ur aim somewhere areound the area he’s pitching in.
Last time I seriously played online was maybe 18. Back then most people were just as bad as I was at zone hitting so I won a lot. Now I hop into 21 and get taken deep anytime a 100mph fastball is within a foot of the strike zone
I feel like they changed the angles of pitches. I watch a ton of low pitches hit the strike zone low for strikes. It's like you have to preload your swing to not be late...but every time I try to hold up on a swing they say I swung. It's way harder this year. Unnecessarily harder.
I’m in the minor league rn first time playing mlb I love sports with the COVID going on and all this time as a black man I never knew how hard baseball is in real life respect to all the players and legends I’m highly addicted learning all the new stats and rules plus I’m hit my first HR
Alright well if you wanna get a hr use power but make sure they can hit hr contact is just to get easy line drive and normal is ideal you should use normal it takes all those in one basically
This game pisses me off so much with it’s hitting system. I’ll hit a good timing ball right on the pci and it’s a fly out. My opponent does the same thing and it’s a huge HR. Then I’m swinging and everything, I’ve tried changing my camera but nothing is working for me. I’ve tried changing everything but nothing works out for me. I’m losing my shit on this game and it’s killing me.
dude thanks for this i love how you’re very informative but also don’t force yr preferences as the correct settings and leave it for subjectivity thanks man great vid!
Ok this may have been the simplest change, but dude! Thank you so much for the strike zone camera tip! My average offline alone has gone thru the roof since making that change! Keep up the good work!
10:31 I have one major weakness. Low change ups. I always fail on low change ups. If someone throws me a fastball outside, I crush it. Low change up, not so much
Learning to take pitches is the hardest part but it’s the most rewarding. Sometimes a pitcher will mess up and leave something over the middle for you to tee off on but seriously, take some pitches and get a feel for how they’re trying to throw to you. Also consider its baseball, even the best hitters fail 2/3 times.
as a first time player on xbox.. the hitting has been by far the hardest thing! constantly late or if I am ontime/early I swing at a ton of junk out of the zone.. I moved the hitting difficulty down for my RTTS player to at least get my timing, but definitely going to get some BP in today at All Star and try moving to strike zone camera.
Thanks for these tips dude.. I couldn’t hit a home run for a moment challenge for a long time and I’m hopefully that these will work after hitting absolute bombs with the settings
I would suggest using directional hitting offline and on legend for timing and vision purposes. I only used directional hitting for the longest time until I became an eagle eye at the plate. When I switched to zone hitting it was just about the pci and not about my vision or timing. Master one first then the other.
I can't tell you how many stikes I have by checking the ball. They need settings to remove check swings. It used to be hit the button normal now you have to hold it down until he is done running the bases it seems. AWFUL!
I use the same hitting view as koogs and I cannot catch up to high fastballs ever. I'll always get the PCI in a good spot but the timing is horrible. Any advice on that anyone? Edit: just noticed you can choose where the cpu throws balls in practice that is awesome. Gonna practice high fastballs
Just bought it and waiting for it to install, never played a baseball game but always enjoyed watching diamond dynasty series and RTTS series, I cant wait to get into it. Going to keep this video saved, have a feeling i'll be watching it more than once.
I’ve been playing so much the last couple weeks 😂 weirdest thing about the swing feedback is that one time I had perfect timing yet the ball was foul. Like I had to be late or early in order for it to be put in play 😂
If you go to your settings and turn the announcers voice to zero, and turn the crowd volume up to 100, you can hear the crowd chanting/whispering clues as to what pitch is coming next. It happens fast , usually on 3-2 , 0-2 counts. You just gotta be alert and quickly decipher what the crowd is trying to tell you before the pitcher releases the ball. It happens even faster online, just as the pitcher is in his windup
I love when I finally get a perfect perfect just to line out to the center fielder

How do you know when to use Power/Contact/Normal swing choices? I feel like I don't see a difference in them.
All u have to do is use contact but sometimes when i got a runner on third and a guy with bad contact i will use contact to drive in that run

What’s your strategy with swing types? Are you always normal swinging or do you sometimes do power swings? Contact swing?
Alright well if you wanna get a hr use power but make sure they can hit hr contact is just to get easy line drive and normal is ideal you should use normal it takes all those in one basically
Contact swing in certain situations with two strikes.

Why does everything feel slow? I’m ahead of everything it’s infuriating
Same
It’s probally because we are all playin on a lower difficulty since we don’t have much ranked series points
Well I mean it's better to be early than late. Over time you'll adjust though. Just focus on seeing the ball a little deeper in the zone.
Yea I feel you on that and when I do try to hold up a little I am always getting behind the pitch can't get that happy medium

If you go to your settings and turn the announcers voice to zero, and turn the crowd volume up to 100, you can hear the crowd chanting/whispering clues as to what pitch is coming next. It happens fast , usually on 3-2 , 0-2 counts. You just gotta be alert and quickly decipher what the crowd is trying to tell you before the pitcher releases the ball.
It happens even faster online, just as the pitcher is in his windup
In other words, the hitting in this game is bs, so only play when you’re feeling lucky
