Haven't had any personally. Have had a great variety of where the ball ends up. Even the bunts seem more realistic.

I prefer the swing stick being exclusive to the RS, similar to what 2k7 had...angle it right to take pitch to right and angle left to take it that way...but no power boost swing

I honestly thought I would too but the new one grew on me the little I played. I didn't like it the first game but got more involved with it the second and started to like it.
Probably something people will like more in the final version and when your actually in situations where you need to hit the ball at a certain spot. I think it'll be better in that aspect then just RS.

I agree, Ive gotten used to it pretty quickly, and enjoy that I don't have to worry about step timing and can focus more of the location of the pitch.
Can't wait to go back to last years pitching and play on a higher difficulty....and play 9 innings!

How much of an influence does the LS have? If you were to push the stick all the way up, would that usually result in a pop fly to CF, or does it have a minimal influence on where the ball will be hit?

To answer your question, yes if you were to push the left stick all the way up, it would result in a pop fly to Center field depending on your timing.

it has way to much, it overrides what is possible (like swinging late on a fastball yet still pulling it because you hit left)

Well, there are 3 higher difficulties and slider, so hard to really gauge hitting.
