The primary overlap point would be a knack for microscopic detail. Using an array of oscillators, arpeggiators, and crazy sounds you can't easily place they gather errant scraps of instrumentation and noise into uncanny wholes. But when we say "drone," don't think dark and dense-- this is lively, diverse music.

my issue is i cant get people to swing at balls, then when i throw in the strike zone they get a insta homerun

Noah Beck

You might be releasing too early

gns

Guys use the easiest hitting interface and press a button

Grok Productions

Depends on the situation.
For example if you get the batter on 2 straight sliders in the strikezone they will certainly chase at one Thats just outside it. And even if they time it right, they will miss or get weak contact.

Or if you focus on the outside corner, up with a fastball, a good knuckle curve can get them diving at the outside corner, even if you let it dive into the dirt.

Pitching is about understanding what batters see your pitches doing (in terms of break and location) and when they see you do it.

You can ALWAYS get them to dive out the zone on this game. Just really take your time and think out your pitch progression

Ty Feibel

3y↑2

I know im late but try to get them to take a strike, then throw a ball just outside and try to get them to swing at it. Just make them chase for fastballs they shouldnt swing ag

Sho Brown

3y↑36

These are some pretty cool pitching mechanics. Really makes it skill based

Luke !

Just getting good at it, A perfect pitch with this is unhittabble

God Ki

You can manipulate it to throw broken pitches

Stephen curry’s Burner

Tip: every pitch starts with a straight line after that line finishes take a little pause then complete the motion.

Reminds me of the pitching in the MLB 2K games where you would flick the stick in a pattern according to the pitch break and movement.

Andrew Cosgrave

I noticed some improvements after taking off my right stick kontrol freak, also never really noticed the release point being timed with the size of the circle so I can't wait to try it out after watching this, Thanks Koogs!

Dillon Johnson

3y↑8

I've been absolutely dotting with every pitcher I use in BR with pure analog. I honestly don't see the point in learning a new (extremely difficult) pitching mechanic when it feels like they finally fixed pure analog. Great video though Koogs, as always! 👍

AlphaAL15

3y↑1

For the moment yes right now Analog is still the best way but i bet at the end of may the will do whatever it takes to Fu-c-k Analog to force people to use pinpoint

Dillon Johnson

@Preston greenbay yeah I hope they leave it alone, it's perfect!

Preston greenbay

Yea I used all of them and analog still is the most accurate even with the perfect pitch for some reason

Beavie

Coming from X-Box, this may actually be the one I learn from. The last MLB game I played was MLB 2k11 and I have gotten familiar with the pitching in that game. The only real difference I see with this is there is a third motion with the analog stick. Usually in 2k you do the first motion (like down for a 4-seam) then move again when the circle is full. Thanks for the tips!

Braden Jarvis

you love to see it, the xbox community is joining the MLB the show community.

The old 2K style! Missed it when I started playing The Show

I knew there was something that I was missing and I found out what it was thanks to this video. I really like this pitching mechanic I have used it before but I think this is a little better. Hell of a video nice job.

I have a feeling the slurve is gonna be the weirdest for pinpoint pitching.

Tyler Craig

It’s almost exactly like a curveball. Not that hard. Splitters though… sheesh

Reid James

I hate the timing of the splitter Shroom

Big Body Mitch

@Road Kill its just hard for me in the stretch idk. But what do you think is the best change up pitch to throw?

Road Kill

@Big Body Mitch Same motion as a splitter

I remember using this in MLB 2k13. Nice throwback to the old days.

I'm excited to try pinpoint but know my terrible-ass is just gonna end up going to pulse lmao

Gabriel C. B.

I thought that but give It a try. This tutorial is on point. Im a complete NOOB.

Kyle McNulty

@BigMittenGaming Lol I never liked that thing. Feel like I don't have much control over it compared to analog.

BigMittenGaming

I just say screw it and use the meter. Most consistent with that wild fast thing somehow lol

Kyle McNulty

Pulse pitching would give me anxiety trying to time it out at the smallest point lol. Pure analog is probably the best way to go at least until I give pinpoint a shot.

Jackson Myers

3y↑1

@ElkhartGossip I just use pulse because I barely have to pay attention to use it and it usually works well

I love pinpoint pitching, never liked pure analog, so I'm sure happy with this change.

Patrick Bateman

3y↑1

It's going to take awhile for me to get used to pinpoint. Pinpoint is definitely the upper advantage for competitive, but like I said it's going to take awhile. Meter is still my go to, but if I have time to get practice like let's say when I'm doing stuff on conquest, then I'll definitely do it.

Joe McKinley

This was super helpful, I’ve been missing that whole step moving it back to the bottom circle 💀

Sonny Peterman

3y↑13

Wow had no idea you had to flick it back down when you release no wonder I get some wild pitches sometimes

Cameron Abrahams

I don’t know why exactly he was talking about the small blue circle bc i’ve never noticed it. Just bring the analog down whenever the Pitcher is about to release the ball

Klastix

thought i was going crazy lmao

Scooby climbs

Just tried and got pulled in the first inning. Hahaha. Have always had a heavy thumb which has made it difficult to play a lot of games that need that light touch.

BuckeyesBestEver

I’m sure there are other videos explaining this. You were the top video and I’m glad I watched Koogs. You did a great job going step by step through the process. I was able to get consistent perfect pitches, thanks.

Dude thank you so much I literally didn’t even notice the circles getting smaller with the timing I didn’t know what I was doing LOL I’m new but it’s awesome and thank you so much

Cameron Abrahams

Don’t worry about the circle moving. Focus on the pitcher. As soon as the pitcher is about to release the ball, that is when u release it. Makes it Wayy Easier

SSmith

Super helpful, I didn't know about the blue circle getting smaller so my timing was always off and I had no idea why. I can get 2/3 perfect and still the ball will be on the opposite corner of where I placed it. Why is that? I feel like I would have more success on meter.

Gabriel C. B.

3y↑1

I was about to give up on Pin Point Pitching . Then I saw this & in my humble opinion its the One that explains it the Best!! Im a complete NOOB (with caps) I struggle hitting at Rookie 😅 & rely so much in Pitching (veteran /All-Star) and this has helped me A LOT !!

cheez

This is honestly the best thing they've added in the game... makes pitching more fun and accurate and takes more skill I get it tho most of you want everything easy in life 😉

Clemsker

3y↑2

I wish I could re-map my buttons. Being left handed it’s much better for me to aim the pitch with my right thumb and execute the command with my left.

Reef

Thanks man the tips really helped! I didnt know about the timing of the smaller circle. First time player thanks a lot.

here after i let two walk off home runs in a row in DD cause apparently i can pitch no hitters and shutouts until it comes to the bottom of the 9th

Alex Ebert

Lets goo the last MLB game I played was 2k12 and pinpoint is basically the same as what those mechanics were

stangboy88

I havent been able to try the show until this year either and have been playing 2k12 on PC for years now. Its funny how easy it was for my to pickup this style pitching in the show with over 2000 hours in 2k12 lol

Brady Hanson

i love how this explained it a lot better than the sds streams, thx koogs

Pilot James

Can you do tutorials for fielding and base running in the road to the show mode?

Dre D'Avanzo

I've fully mastered pin-point pitching already. It's the best way to pitch and I love it.

Chris Heyward

Doing a curve is literally torture

Bryson Mcneil

3y↑1

It’s so hard to use this pin point that it almost makes pure analog better because pure analog is so accurate this year and pure analog is so easy to use

algol29

If I want to throw a pitch up and in, the vibration of the controller still tells you where you are in regards to the plate, right?

C SMITH

3y↑1

Great video! Question: can u manually curve a pitch or is it only done by: time & accuracy || ie (Using Fastball): if i aim left but "throw" right would it curve..

Micheal Jones

At the end of the motion, do you just realize the right stick after holding, or do you flip the stick down?

James Clark

Thank you for this. Pinpoint pitching is now enjoyable!

Mixologist

Thanks I played practice for like 5 minutes but didn't know wtf I was doing. Watched ur video the other day to learn this my first time playing the show but this game looks good as hell bout to grind for a little and maybe try online

Dane B

Thanks for the tips. I was missing that bit about waiting for the 2 blue circles. I'm doing much better now.

フレデリク

I was in trouble because I didn't know the correct operation method for pinpoint pitching.
I'm not good at English, but the easy-to-understand explanations helped me.
Thank you very much.

I’m an Xbox player new to the show since this is the first year it’s been on here so I think I might take advantage of this and learn it since I don’t already know the 2 other picthing controls.

Brian ViPond

I actually thought you were supposed to flick the Right stick down as fast as possible. Thanks for the tutorial Koogs, this helped a lot

nundzi

Nothing rises more than 100% accurate and blue perfect 4-seamer. Everytime I get it i know its gonna be a ball.

N7JOSH

Honestly I’ve had the most trouble with the fast ball. I love pinpoint pitching.

@Koogs do you think KontrolFreeks would help with this to have better control? Do you/have you used them? If so which ones do you use?

nickmattingly55

3y↑1

I'm not koogs but he doesn't use a kontrol freek for pitching most people don't, they only use one when hitting. For whatever reason controlling the pitches on the right thumb stick WITHOUT a kontrol freek is significantly easier.

dexter d

Thanks KOOGS46; Very helpful , so the last step after holding up is stick down to the blue
It going to take much practice to get good at this

MobileGameReviews

So from personal experience so far, i find hard pitches like slurve to be easier than fastballs when guys are on base lol. Like getting my breaking balls out quicker

younghollywood941

Is this turned on or off during the game? I just started franchise, first inning had this.. watched this tutorial, thought I should go practice, so i exited, then came back and now its the "normal" pitching

Zack Grimes

Do you use Kontrol Freaks for the pitching analog? I know they're great for hitting.

Evan Schwartz

Can someone explain how to throw a perfect splitter on pinpoint? I cannot figure that pitch out and there’s no tutorials anywhere

Taddi Mason

Yeah i need help with it too. Mine wont let me go past it the first time and come back. When i go past the first time it stops and i cant get perfect. Its annoying.

CycloneAtlas

Thank you so much I wasn’t quite sure with everything because they were very vague with what to do

Malcolm Garman

You want to go down, exactly when the pitcher releases the ball.

How do you add a 4th pitch in rtts? I can't find the options anywhere and I just finished first yr in the majors.

Aidan Taylor

This was super helpful and the only thing I can’t do is trace the pitch. I don’t know why but when I trace it well it is way too slow. Thank You though 👍

Gaming galaxy

So when u bring the analog down to the blue circle, if u vear left or right of the blue circle does that mean ur pitch will do the same

David

thanks for the tips! def will take a lot of practice

Tim Murphy

Thanks for the tips! I’m actually XBox owner who is very excited to finally get a baseball game to play. As a complete newcomer to the series, do you think I should just dive in and learn pinpoint pitching? I don’t anticipate doing too much online play, but you never know.

Braden Jarvis

I recommend playing road the the show first, then when you get to know how the game works and functions, start playing some diamond dynasty.

Matthew Liebling

Thanks for this, the tutorial didn’t explain at all how it works

Jared Melamed

The splitter doesn’t work for me. Whenever I go over the first closing circle it stops it

DontrelleRoosevelt

This game STILL, after over 20 years, lacks basic intuitive and fun, unique controls.

2K handled great, RBI feels great now.

They need to replace that part of the development team over there, preferably Russell and family.

Hugo Ramos

Thanks for the video, it helped a lot. NO MORE PITCHES ON THE DIRT!!!!

Andrew Beadle

Darryl Bruce

This helped so much. Thanks man!

Danny Watkins

I have never played MLB the Show. I was a very good pitcher on the MLB 2K series games. This looks similar. Will that help me once I buy The Show?

Scott Ita-leiendecker

He made pinpoint make sense. Thank you so much

Grqphiics

For anyone needing to know (not sure if it’s because of the update but you can add 5 pitches to your pitch types...go to your bullpen training and scroll all the way down and it shows “Add (pitch type) and then your character learns it

OilersFan365

pinpoint sucks even when i get perfect perfect it still goes up in the zone sometimes pure analog is way better

♣️ Dmitry ♠️

Yes it's kind of easy if you don't have anyone on bases. I struggle with pinpoint pitching once bases get loaded or my pitcher gets tired.

Cosmosis

I can't do pinpoint pitching for the life of me. I might have to stick with metered.

Bog Boi

How do you keep the red part up to aim where your pitch goes pre pitch?

RDG760 jr

This helped man, thanks 🤘

Jonathan

Any way to control speed with pinpoint? Not sure if it’s helpful, but I found controlling speed to make a difference at times.

Joe Young

Y’all never played Skate 3, and I never played an MLB game from the show franchise. Still bet I will have the nastiest pitches 😉

Biggles_Mets

Thank you koogs I am so confused.

Is pin point with analog? Nvm. This is gonna be intense.

SticksSoSick 1

Are you using the left stick still? Like during the right analog motion do you still hold the left stick or no?

Stephen Gordon

3y↑1

The fact that there are tutorial videos for this style shows its not a good option if you wanna be consistent

high verson

There are even more tutorials for the other setting.

Tyler Craig

I got stoned one night and became a wizard at pinpoint. Before that I wasn’t doing it correctly at all.

Google User

I get green lines with 90% accuracy and the ball goes way off target. Meanwhile yellow lines will sometimes be more accurate. PP pitching is the worst
