Until I see Beltran banging on the cover, I feel garbage is an overstatement.

I really CANNOT emphasize this enough: YELL at the game, instead.

I do this. My neighbors hate me. I throw pillows at couches too.

Thank the lord I live in a house lol.

As far as I know, you can't use a downloaded roster or player online, only against cpu. You can load it in your startup menu, but you lose that once you enter DD.

@buttmuncher150 said in Griffey always stuck in the mud:

Griffey jogged to so many balls in CF now I have Mays in CF and Griffey in RF
Last game- I got a fly ball to right center and I’m tracking it with Griffey and he feels stuck in the mud so I’m telling myself “ you better catch this” Then it goes over Griffey’s head and Mays, controlled by the computer comes out of now where and catches it. Saving my lead
Like are you kidding? They couldn’t let Griffey catch the ball? Or give me control of Mays in the first place?

yup. I've seen that animation too frequently!! I swear SS Dawson is the way to go in RF
Swings a decent bat with pop, great speed and guns the ball in

@cvogsfashow said in Mariano Rivera needs a Knuckleball-pitch:

Agreed, just because his pitches moved so much and were so devastating, in order to make him a very usable card. They could also get away with Cutter, 2S, Sinker, Slider, Change up. I doubt they give him a five pitch arsenal....but you never know he is the best closer to ever play the game of Baseball so jack that card up like they did with a lot of the SS this year.

100%. It'd be a sin to not give him a 5 pitch repertoire IMO and then kenley Jansen gets 5..

I've played 2 conquest games in the past couple hours. The first was a stronghold game against the Tigers on ROOKIE that went TEN innings with FIFTEEN well struck balls that were outs. The second was a steal fans game against the padres on HoF in which they didn't have a hit until the bottom of the third and here's how it went. SS Kenley jansen pitching. Strikes out the first guy. Second batter walks on 4 BORDERLINE pitches. Next batter hits the ball straight back to the pitcher, I hit the green on the throwing meter to throw to second base for an easy double play to win the game. Jansen stands there for 3 secs, and throws the ball to second after the batter is already standing on second, has had a drink of water, tied both his shoes, and taken a quick nap. Next batter doubles into the gap scoring 2 runs and winning the game.

I mean come on. I REAAAALLLYY don't want to say the game is scripted but when stuff like this happens, it's hard to deny it.

Every time I play a game like this, the chances of my buying 20 go down. I'm just not going to pay money for this type of experience year after year.

Sorry, like I said, I just needed to vent.

Get better at the game. You played on Rookie...even if you had 15 balls squared up for outs...if you are good one would leave the park. Game isn't scripted.

Get better at what exactly? Squaring up the ball with good/good timing? Should I try hitting HIGHER than 110 exit velos? Please be specific. Should I try hitting balls THROUGH the defenders gloves? Is there a magic result higher than good/squared up that I'm missing?

I did hit 2 homers in the top of the 10th inning. So I am good enough to hit home runs against rookie apparently... Oh and those 2 homers had the same contact input and exit velos as multiple balls that were outs. So what exactly should I be better at? Like I said, please be specific.

Get better at hitting to be specific. You were on Rookie, if you couldn't score more than you gave up in a three inning game.......go do some custom practice, it helps a lot.

Want coins now, sell. Want to maximize coins, sell in a couple weeks. Want to play with a new card for the last month and a half of the game cycle, keep.

looks like you've been playing too much madden, it's stubs not coins

NHL actually, but still an EA title. And yeah, I catch myself saying coins instead of stubs all the time. I've stopped caring. Everyone knows what I mean.

Mays is the best Centerfield defender in the game, IMHO.......He is a great hitter but not as forgiving as Griffey in my experience.

Side Note ---i love that they put in Mays famous over the shoulder catch animation if you make a play that is similar.

Griffey is a great defender but an insane hitter and the exact reverse of Mays.

Its real close, but if you need a bit more speed and defense, go Mays, and if you need a bit more offense in a lefty bat, go Griffey.

Again....this is just my personal experience so YMMV

SS Sixto Lezcano

Mo Rivera is one of my dream players. He might have been the guy i picked, if i could put any new player in the game i wanted.

I cant wait to use him.

Only problem....unless they super nerf him or give him shart stain ratings, every last inning will have players going Mo vs Mo.

Itll either be the most used card of all time or itll get Yankees fans rocked when we still use him, even if his card is a [censored].

Looking forward to it either way....

I guess this nonsense is to be expected in January, but I was legit pumped for the Franco teaser in the trailer, and he has a dominant change up from the left side, he should be really fun to use and we could always use more lefties in the pen for the show.

I would love the option to put a logo on the jersey sleeve. Like the Braves throwback feather or something like that.

I pretty sure this and more number font options is on everyones wish list.

@SaveFarris said in Hank Aaron:

Proofreading ... what is it again?

You fixed it.

Note to self - use Felipe Vazquez for the freebies

Is there any res on why I can't play DD

err nevermind I forgot you can't allow a run sorry

good control. great speed differentials. plays really good above all star. bonus he had a good swing

MLB tried Chemistry and power ups in the 90s and despite the initial popularity, things soured rather quickly.
