View of Batter when hit HR

So it seems this year that sometimes when the batter hits a home run the camera looks directly at the batter instead of the field where the ball was hit.

Is this new? I do not care for it at all. I prefer the old view towards the field. Can I change this in the settings?

Thanks for the information.

Do people in the community actually like this change?

I dont mind it at all. I think it gives the pitchers perspective of giving up a HR. It feels demoralizing at times as I feel it should. They probably could have went further with it giving animations of the batter staring down the pitcher or allowing us to see the bat flip to really pull in the immersion. Thats just me though.

I’m not a fan of it but what I do like is that on all homerun cam shots, they break away and show the ball and where it lands.

I think it is horrible. It should be an option. Also the cartoon HR distance should be an option...half the time I have to wait until replay to even see where ball landed.

Also on close HRs it removes the suspense of whether the fielder caught the ball. Perhaps fun for DD or arcade mode but not for Franchise or even RTTS.

The close up means nobody is catching it. The non close up home runs means it's not a sure thing and could be caught.
