What controls do you like?

Pure analog? Zone? etc.

What do you guys find in most realistic for pitching and hitting and fielding?

Thanks!

I've used pure analog for a while now, but I'm gonna try to transition to timing this year (mostly for cosmetic purposes, since the strides often look weird with pure analog, especially guys with high leg kicks). I started using pulse pitching when it came out and I love it because it adds that little bit of realistic uncertainty in your pitches. With the meter I felt like I could pinpoint pitches with anybody, which detracted from the realism. On defense I've started throwing without the meter since it lets the player's ratings be the deciding factor in the throw's accuracy and not the user's input.

I tried to use pulse pitching, but it made me dizzy lol! I switch between pure analog and zone hitting, meter pitching, sometimes the analog stick makes my wrist sore. I do like the stick for fielding, but I turn of the meter too.

I use zone for hitting (buttons) and analog for everything else (AS). I'm just terrible hitting on analog, it's easier for me to check swing on zone. Maybe I'll try analog hitting again when the PS4 version comes out and see what happens.

I can never get the stride good on analog. I am always just early.

Pure analog hit, pitch and field. Don't be a button pusher, (no offense to button pushers). Most realistic feel is to have all presentation options such as h/c zones, strike zone, swing pitch info, turned off. Naked like watching it in real life. Pitching camera is always behind the mound.
