First - 23 is the best show I’ve played and I’ve been playing the show since 06. Much more fluid experience and, on the series x, it looks amazing.

However, these bats sounds are horrific. There were better bat sounds in FPS baseball back in the 90s! What were they thinking… all bat/ball contact sounds like a fouled tip.

The MLB experience is unique partly due to “the crack of the bat”. The distinct sound of wood hitting hard leather. Very unique and loud.

Certainly hope they address the muted bat sounds or overhaul the bat sounds all together. I hit an HR over 450 in battle royale and it sounded as if it was a foul tip…MLB doesn’t sound like that. When someone hits a home run, everyone in the stadium can hear the sound of the bat/ball contact.

I agree with this take. The crack of the bat sounds better than the tech test, but is still off.

Seems like certain balls hit are programmed wrong for contact. Agree, maybe a patch can fix this.

Other than that the game is really good and immersive.

I actually like the bat sounds this year. Not sure why but I really can hear the difference when i clock one

I do as well. It seems as though there are maybe 4-5 different sounds this year as opposed to maybe 2 sounds the previous years.

And I like that the sounds vary depending on timing and where contact is made on the bat.

Some just seem off from time to time. So I agree with the OP.

I'm going to be that guy who says I love some of the bat sounds, but every so often there is a bat sound that sounds a little wonky.

There are definitely some hollow sounding ones that are jarring. I do love the sound when you really connect. Hopefully they can correct the others.

This year's bat crack for PERFECT PERFECT is the best it has ever been.
