Pulse Pitching is too easy!!

I kind of figured this would happen eventually. I'm only my 7th or 8th game in and already throwing 75-79% strikes with it. It becomes too easy to time when to hit the button to pitch to make an accurate pitch. Back to Classic Pitching I go!!

Did you attempt to up the difficulty on pitching? If you are hitting your spots every time with 4th or 5th starters on Legend pitching, then I'm not sure what to tell you.

Re: Pulse Pitching is too easy!!

I'm on Allstar with it. It's not that I don't lose, or get hits on me. It's just my strike % is wayyy too high. MLB average is 62% with good pitchers around 65% The league high was 69% by 7 pitchers, and 68% by 10 pitchers. I'm well over 70% which is extremely too high

I didn't ask if you lost, I asked if you upped the difficulty.

Well always throwing the ball in the zone would probably do that. A high strike percentage isn't necessarily a good thing either. You could give up a dozen first-pitch hits and your strike percentage is 100%, but I doubt you'd be in the game much longer with a stat-line like that.

I understand all that. I use the API and throw the catcher suggested pitch every time, whoch definitely has me throwing outside the strike zone when called for. The cpu does foull off alot of pitches too which doesn't help (lowered that to zero and still see plenty). I don't throw right down the middle though lol. It's just easy to time when to hit the button for the circle to be as small as possible for an accurate pitch.

I tried Legend difficulty and that doesn't make it any harder to time the button to throw the pitch where u want to throw. All that did was give up a homerun on my 4th pitch trying it on a high-inside fastball so no thanks.

I just want accurate strike % while using API like I do, and pulse pitching doesn't do that imo.
