I agree.... all star feels most balanced

It's the first time that I'm playing this game and I really loving it but I don't know if it's me or not but I'm feeling that the pitching meter it a little broken.

I'm currently on Hall on fame pitching difficulty (Dynamic Difficulty) and I've the impression that you can miss by a little the "green" zone (don't know how it's called) on the pitching meter and seeing your throw going miles away that the zone that I've aimed.

In fact, I'm seeing no big differences between the time when I'm missing this zone by a little or when I'm missing completely (which happen). It should be the case no ?

Or I haven't really understood the pitching meter.

HOF meter pitching is pretty unforgiving on default sliders. It's like you said - missing the meter by any amount can result in a really big error radius (and the ball landing anywhere in that radius). Think of it like leaving a huge circle on a mis-timed pulse pitching button press.

You can lower the REALLY inaccurate misses with the consistency slider (raising it) if it's getting to you that much.

Well it's user dependant. It used to be perfect for me but this year AS is too easy. I've been slugging 5 homeruns per game and lasering shots left and right. The CPU just grooves at least 1 pitch per batter. So frustrating, I'm almost thinking there's a difficulty glitch and the game is stuck on Rookie even though AS is selected.

I have not seen much changes in this patch at all as far as gameplay goes

CPU still warms up the BP in the 5th innings even if it is a 2-2 game and he is only at 70 pitches.

Does the AI think that nobody works the count or something and swings at everything>? because that might be the only way to stop the CPU for automatically bringing the BP ready in the 5th.

no difference for me in Home runs either though I never had a issue with it.

I'm only one user so take my experience with a grain of salt. But, I'll tell u that I've had no issues with balls in the dirt allowing runners to advance on me. I've had about 6 and ONLY ONCE did the ball get far enough away for Dee Gordon (I mean c'mon, he's fast) to take 2nd.

I've also had soft sacrifice bunts down both lines.

I'm pleased with these

Probably too much to hope they un-nerfed hitting. Pretty sure they way overcorrected with the last patch.
