Zone or timing?

[brewersfan08]

I've been using timing on all star and having trouble scoring runs and getting hits...I have no problem on veteran though but I just wanted to know if zone is easier or more rewarding I guess than timing

I like zone more, I tried timing but didnt like it because when a pitch would be right down the middle and you would get perfect timing, the CPU would sometimes swing over or under the pitch and you would miss.

Same boat with you. It is frustraing to see the miss on a meatball, and it happens quite often. I swtiched to zone and usually don't touch left stick and I got better result than timing.

i'm crushing everything on zone lol

I think that timing is heavy based on stats and then skill. Thats what I use. Zone is more skill based so if you are that good you can crush the ball. At least that is what I read here.

I am not a great player. I am set on timing and guess pitch and veteran. My mets, through april are hitting .223. I can guess the right pitch and have solid contact with marlon byrd and fly out. I like that.

Timing is crap for the reasons you stated. I've tried to get good at zone, but for me it's just too frustrating and takes too much time (which I don't have) and practice. Give pure analog a try. I've been using it all year and absolutely love it

I use timing because I feel like you get more realistic results, because timing is more based on players statistics.

I enjoy timing due to having players attribute contribute more of a factor to my results. I'm using a hybrid slider set I put together combining Armor & Swords hitting components with TNK's fielding and pitching. I'm definitely enjoying it and getting some great, close games.

At times it is a struggle on offense though, im just now getting a few games that I reach double digit hits. I do have some frustrating moment where I will get served up a meatball right down the middle, even with good timing it will get popped up or I will swing through it.
