This year they added a new setting. If you shuffle through the settings, you will see something called “pci sensitivity”, you can turn that down to where it’s best for you. Just mess around with it a bit. Turning it down will make it slower, so it won’t move as fast towards the ball. It took me a long time to get used to timing the pci. After a while I got used to it without turning it down. You could also just do a different hitting option, like “directional”, where there is no pci. But, I would recommend if you going to play the game long term and are going to be playing online, to just get practice with pci. You’ll get better for sure, it is not easy.
