Strike zone camera: cheap?

[skrody]

how do you guys feel about the 'strike zone' camera angle for hitting?

is it cheap? does it feel like cheating?

i watched a bunch of streams on twitch of guys playing, boasting their rank and whatever - and when i saw them hit it was zoomed in, only in the strike zone, and i wondered - how good would you be if you that camera angle didnt exist.

do you use it? what are your thoughts?

I used it for a bit last year, but I found it waaaay too easy to read pitches. I would draw a ton of walks and never strike out.

If you can perfect strike zone camera with zone hitting and wedge PCI it's pretty unstoppable

Aesthetically I dislike it, so I don't use it. I never found I hit that much better with it anyway, and it's far from a realistic view of the ball.

But, if they are going to allow it in online play, they should go ahead and allow Custom Catcher Cameras already. Once they fix it with a patch of course, because custom cams are currently broken.

not cheap at all. i find it can be harder to read changeups, also, if my batter is too tall or i can't see his body on the screen then i find it harder to time.

I can't read low pitches at all from this camera. And I don't believe any camera is "cheap", aside from the way Broadcast/Pitcher/etc used to be where you could see the catcher's hand signals.

well considering i think that majority of the top online players such as cardinalbird use this camera, there is something about it that helps them become top online players. may not be cheap but it is odd that the best of the best use this camera.

Well i used the def camera in mlb 12 and did fine personally.

Aesthetically people hate on strike zone but I dont care about looking at my batter personally. Plus this camera takes awhile to get used to.

My problem is they out all the good zoom cameras and added alot views that distort the pitcher so you can have a wider view. I really get no advantage of using those.

I personally find strikezone to be closest to the most realistic too and dont buy the argument that other cams are more realistic.

Its all personal preference though. If you play online and you do best with strikezone why would you change? Its mostly salty people who complain about it just to make excuses.
