I'm not sure what it is about this game but is it just me or does it seem less fun? Maybe it's that I can't hit or that the CPU magically seems to always come up with the hit it needs to pull ahead.

I've drafted the #1 overall team and am hitting .235. Just dropped to default Veteran from 6 contact, 6 solid hit All Star. DFL in HR, SLG pct., hits, hits allowed.

This just isn't fun. I've even dropped pitch speed for the first time in four years and it doesn't seem to matter. Time to go back to 11, I think.

I am hitting better and winning more games than any other version.

As good as 11 was, 12 is even better, IMHO. Having more fun this year.

How is it you're hitting better? What are you using for sliders?

I'm having a blast, as well. Last night I scored 10 runs, AND with no homeruns. Felt good to score that many without going deep.

I always play stock sliders. The devs have the game optimized at those sliders.

I see the ball much better this year with the new camera angle.

Definitely more fun; default sliders, rookie, timing, auto defense... 8-5 record, 3.11 era, .278 avg., 6 HR , Dodger's!!

I had way more fun playing this game in march, but now in April, I'm suddenly playing way worse. I'm averaging maybe 1-2 runs a game(AI is like that too!)
