To go more into a ratings based gameplay I recommend "Buttons" instead of "Button Accuracy" for fielding throws to make arm ratings have an impact and since you are using meter maybe experiment with cpu pitch calling when you are pitching.
Adjust the training to batting cages or weight room , that works for me when certain guys are cold change it up and they play better might have to mess with it to find it
First 10 minutes of this video were poetic, I play franchises w a lot of friends in all sports games and none of them understand why I want to hamper our influence vs the CPU as much as possible 😂. Will never understand how people get gratification from just stomping on computer teams when you already know you’re good at the game. Like what’s the point of managing/developing the team then? You could win it all with a full 50 overall squad if you really wanted Please don’t let it get to your head that some 14 year olds can’t comprehend what you’re going for here 😂. You’re the only channel that combines immaculate commentary w grueling realistic rebuilds. For us mfs that have been playing sports games our whole lives we need it lmao. No bs fake personality, no “OMGGG 7 HRS in One Game for SHOHEI?!?!?!?!?!?”, etc. Keep keeping it real
I like this faster progress trough the seasons. Hopefully we will get to see more drafted players. it is always my favorite part of your Madden series.
Good job keeping the rebuild as realistic as possible. The reason I subscribed was because it’s fun to watch the progress. Ignore the hater comments bro.
Hopefully we get to see these draft picks get called up and play in this series 🙃 Also I totally understand why you do timing based hitting. It needs be represented by their attributes. It would be ridiculous if you used your pci. I've watched you play this game for years and your a beast. I'll say it for you buddy
Tbh if you switched like, Nelson and Bobby’s numbers and had the same record that probably is a pretty realistic Royals season at that point. Just how the game goes.
I think a happy medium between skill and timing hitting would be directional, it would allow you to use the left stick to influence where hits go based on locations and it won’t be so OP where every swing is a HR/Hit.
It also uses a PCI that’s just hidden. Idk how exactly it works in directional but that’s also a way you can be incentivized for getting better players.
changing the sliders a good bit is a possibility to make the game a lot harder and still keep it realistic, another suggestion could be to make the slider change and use zone in games where you jump into critical situations
Ik I feel you I tried this for fun and sometimes when I get good contact they just hit it foul then I come to see they don’t have good contact usually.
Totally agree with you The true os that with the pci it would just not be as fun as it is without it So just pls continue like this We like see you struggle sometimes for now ahaha
any chance you can look at a few prospects that you looked or passed up like the guy the reds took at 2 and the shortstop you passed up later in the draft? you can look at that when everyone finished signing their picks
For future reference, I’ve figured out that if you have a player scouted at about 90% or higher, their potential and overall is essentially in the middle of whatever range is listed. So if their potential is 80-90, they’re prolly gonna be an 85 or 86
I agree with the “way too Many good contact swings are foul/bad” I was playing game 7 of the ALCS and made good contact on like 20 swings and scored 1 run the whole game because most of the “good” contact was flyouts
Honest question: Have you ever considered doing a smaller rebuild via March to October, Bengal? It could work similarly to your offseason/realistic rebuilds in Madden on your main channel.
I find the series to be enjoyable as it is but I’m just curious, if you use zone hitting with a different camera angle like zone 3 or something that is farther away. Are still scoring a ton of runs?
Just a suggestion: turn off the fielding throw meter so it’s not a perfect throw every time based on your skill. Gives more incentive to acquire players with higher fielding and make more/less plays based on their attributes. Love the vids
I think bengal should be able to have at bats with timing and location swinging …when it’s a big game against great pitchers bengal royals vs braves strider or dodger kershaw or ohtani
I gotta be honest you don’t have to defend yourself with the settings, I love watching because it’s realistic not just watching someone who always wins because they are great at the game
I don't play the game, but I am curious if its easier or harder for defense to have that timing based throw or if theres a way to make defense more based on ratings as well?
So, I actually traded Sal on my own Royals franchise because Kyle Isbel went down with a season ending injury and I needed another outfielder to replace him. Hence leading to me making a deal with the Reds to acquire Jake Fraley
Bengal hitting a homer on his very first swing with a PCI made me literally laugh out loud!
I was coming to comment something similar 😆
I love the struggle. Rebuilds take a long time, especially in baseball. I support you Bengal.

Cleveland Smoove is one of the best auto generated names I've seen lmao
I would’ve drafted him for the memes alone
8:06 Not sure if he qualifies as a legend, but Dustin Colquitt had a good career as a punter for the Chiefs. Has a good number of records for the team
My mind went there as well
A good way of putting is, with zone hitting the team would be as good as you are. With this hitting you are as good as the team is.
I am apalled by what this game is doing to Bobby Witt Jr.
He never get respect
In my game he’s hitting .300
In the second year he hit 32 home runs

Keep keeping it real
Watching bengal hit an absolute swamp donkey first swing of the game after a rant about how he’s good bringing up his online state made my year
I could watch you play any sports franchise man! Always entertaining! Your a beast
bengal not being able to find potential right infront of his face
I enjoy the realism of the hitting and rebuilding of the team. You're not supposed to win every single game in baseball. Keep up the good work
I like this faster progress trough the seasons. Hopefully we will get to see more drafted players. it is always my favorite part of your Madden series.
Paredes is still a Ray. Luke Raley went from TB to the mariners if that’s who you’re thinking of?
Yeah I'm not sure why I was convinced Paredes was traded there as well
It almost feels like the mandela effect it's honestly mind blowing to me haha
@@BengalPlaysI was playing RTTS today and I thought the same exact thing. I could’ve swore Paredes was traded😂
Must be thinking of the Kenny white Sox series 🤦
Good job keeping the rebuild as realistic as possible. The reason I subscribed was because it’s fun to watch the progress. Ignore the hater comments bro.
best part of any bengal franchise series is watching the team progress
Love the realism if you really wanna do that then classic pitching and auto fielding with really help the player based ratings show
No explanations needed. Don’t try to convince anyone, loving this franchise
Hopefully we get to see these draft picks get called up and play in this series 🙃
Also I totally understand why you do timing based hitting. It needs be represented by their attributes. It would be ridiculous if you used your pci. I've watched you play this game for years and your a beast. I'll say it for you buddy
Welcome back to 23 😂 😂 😂
For the camera, you could always do custom and lower the view down a little if you’re looking to see the batter and a better view of the strike zone.
Tbh if you switched like, Nelson and Bobby’s numbers and had the same record that probably is a pretty realistic Royals season at that point. Just how the game goes.
Keep this series going. The videos have been amazing and I’m so invested in this series. You’re too OP with pci, so I like the timing mechanic more.
Do whatever you want with your series man! People are always going to complain, but the ones who are here for your content will watch no matter what!
im liking the more fast pace episodes
Keep doing what you’re doing. This series has been entertaining as always and rebuilds don’t happen overnight
I think a happy medium between skill and timing hitting would be directional, it would allow you to use the left stick to influence where hits go based on locations and it won’t be so OP where every swing is a HR/Hit.
It also uses a PCI that’s just hidden. Idk how exactly it works in directional but that’s also a way you can be incentivized for getting better players.
Here to add to engagment and remind you that we all love this series very much, thank you for doing what you do man
Issac Parades is still on the Rays btw
24:04 Baseball, baseball He-Man, hit the baseball with the power of Grayskull!
changing the sliders a good bit is a possibility to make the game a lot harder and still keep it realistic, another suggestion could be to make the slider change and use zone in games where you jump into critical situations
The way these guys make such sporadic contact reminds me of trying to bat lefty in the cages. Just waving at everything and barely finding the ball
Thank you bengal keep it about ratings
Love your videos bro keep it up as a Royals fan 💙. I enjoy yours and TNJ who’s doing a Montreal Expos one 🔥.
Loving the series and the settings, much more enjoyable and realistic 🔥
Ik I feel you I tried this for fun and sometimes when I get good contact they just hit it foul then I come to see they don’t have good contact usually.
Totally agree with you
The true os that with the pci it would just not be as fun as it is without it
So just pls continue like this
We like see you struggle sometimes for now ahaha
Nice Ray Guy reference! Thanks for the hard work
Bengal you should try using your pci, probably help the whole rebuild experience
I appreciate you using timing based hitting. You do you
Risking Gerrit Cole’s masterclass by bringing in McArthur was disrespectful.
Anyone else notice a big improvement in how the sky looks this year? Actually feels like it might rain when you get the darker clouds
Bring on the struggle. UA-cam is full of channels hitting 550ft every swing. Your content is superior.
That Ray Guy pull was nice, love your ball knowledge.
Bengal flexing his skill was a needed part
The potential for the prospect was up at the top by his picture. Where the overall usually is. 48:44
You should use zone hitting only when u player lock a player for a game
Best mob franchise series out there
Paredes is definitely still on the rays 😂! Luke Raley is the one that went to Seattle and he is on Seattle in the game 😂😂
Maybe like game 162 if the game doesn’t matter, you can play the game with zone hitting and all that and win a game 70 - 0 just for fun.
Lmao just saw the no doubter on your first swing
As a Whole, the timing based hitting is clearly the best for the franchise
Bengal looking for the potential stat in the draft, greened me out 🫠
Theres no way Stewart Hook is not a hall of fame closer with that name
GIVE EM THEEEEE HOOOOOK
50:25 Sonny weaver jr masterclass getting Ray Jennings there
Try making the camera catcher, I think it gives the best view for franchise and it makes the 99+ fastballs kinda hitable
I feel you 100% I also turn off zone hitting for franchise. Kind of ruins the point to me just to mash with bad players.
any chance you can look at a few prospects that you looked or passed up like the guy the reds took at 2 and the shortstop you passed up later in the draft? you can look at that when everyone finished signing their picks
For future reference, I’ve figured out that if you have a player scouted at about 90% or higher, their potential and overall is essentially in the middle of whatever range is listed. So if their potential is 80-90, they’re prolly gonna be an 85 or 86
Been watching all channels since 10k subs
That was just hilariously petty to start the video lol.
Love the series!!
Timing hitting on legend is the only way I can make franchise realistic. I do classic pitching as well just let the ratings do their thing
Try the wide camera you can see the hitter and it feels better when hitting
I agree with the “way too
Many good contact swings are foul/bad” I was playing game 7 of the ALCS and made good contact on like 20 swings and scored 1 run the whole game because most of the “good” contact was flyouts
It’s crazy how many years you have to say this lol. It’s your franchise and playing experience. Play how you want. Thanks for the content!

I find the series to be enjoyable as it is but I’m just curious, if you use zone hitting with a different camera angle like zone 3 or something that is farther away. Are still scoring a ton of runs?
I like realistic simulations. PCI was only created for whiny DD players. Keep doing the good work Bengal.
“As he runs past the ball, WHAT is going on?” 😂😂😂
In that all star game, Garcia probably got thrown out pushing for a triple, which is why you saw a double
Could probably use some hitting when playing player specific games, maybe not with the whole team.
Just a suggestion: turn off the fielding throw meter so it’s not a perfect throw every time based on your skill. Gives more incentive to acquire players with higher fielding and make more/less plays based on their attributes. Love the vids
Do you watch NBA or play NBA 2k ever just wondering if you watch Basketball too or just Baseball and Football
I think bengal should be able to have at bats with timing and location swinging …when it’s a big game against great pitchers bengal royals vs braves strider or dodger kershaw or ohtani
nice to see matt olson, bengals twin make an appearance
I personally am able to track where the ball ends up better with zoom over strike zone.
bengal taking his time with the Round 3 pick stressed me out
I think once a game ur allowed to use zone. So we can see good stuff.
Bro talking about how good he is but can’t make a play in the field that is so funny to me😭😂
Why you hating?
@@BillyWitherspoon I’m not I was just thought it was funny I’m not hating 💀
I have almost 0 baseball knowledge and here i am watching the royals franchise
"The fight for .500 rages on" Bruh lmao
you have the series set up right ratings before user skill in franchise!
I gotta be honest you don’t have to defend yourself with the settings, I love watching because it’s realistic not just watching someone who always wins because they are great at the game
This actually makes me want to the new game and play franchise even though it’s the same game
Waiting on my flight, clutch upload gene
Love to watch BR on twitch
I’ve been using directional hitting, is zone straight up better?
would love to see some diamond dynasty gameplay ?
I know ranked is kinda broken , any chance we get any ranked play videos ?
I understand that you want it to be realistic but maybe just maybe when you player lock take an at-bat with pci
Isaac Parades is indeed still on the Rays
I don't play the game, but I am curious if its easier or harder for defense to have that timing based throw or if theres a way to make defense more based on ratings as well?
yea you can set it to no meter and all you have to do is click where to throw it to
I’m convinced mlb the show 24 has a beef with Bobby Witt Jr.
Random question, does know why Ohtani has two different colored compression sleeves in The Show 24? How can I this?
jose siri. this is the best burrito i’ve ever eaten. yum yum yum.
So, I actually traded Sal on my own Royals franchise because Kyle Isbel went down with a season ending injury and I needed another outfielder to replace him. Hence leading to me making a deal with the Reds to acquire Jake Fraley
Turn off ball indicator in outfield, it makes life way harder. Just makes it more realistic imo.
I only play on this batting camera angle 😅
Cleveland smoove😂😂😂
Isn’t Ray Jennings the name of the running back the Browns picked who was played by Arian Foster in draft day? Lol
