The game is already trash and having to deal with that doesn’t help much.
If the game is "trash" then why are you here?
You don’t think the game is bad? What kind of game you’ve been playing then?

Some people being forced to play a prestige 68 flying 12-0 banners in 700 ranked division would consider you being toxic for XP grinding a god squad and then force feeding them an [censored] whopping. I’m not saying that’s the case but it’s always good to consider other people’s perspective. Your team is extrodinarliy op for that level, I play a lot of teams w fotf or evolution cards at those levels
First of all, I don't do and never did any "XP grinding" just for the sake of gaining XP. I just play, I don't need that nonsense. The way I reached prestige 68 is by playing showdowns to get all TA programs to 100%. That was the goal, the XP was a nice side effect.
Secondly, my team is good but not "extraordinarily OP" at all. Even in these tiers I run into God squads almost every single game contrary to what you say. And even then; it's not the car, it's the driver.
Thirdly, how can I ever be considered toxic when I HAVE TO climb through the ranks? If it were up to me, I wouldn't wanna play any of these guys either.
And lastly, if you want to play online you're gonna run into players who are better than you and will most likely give you a beatdown. It happens to all of us. If you can't cope with that, you shouldn't be playing online at all and stick to the offline game modes.

Offline player, feels good not dealing with all the nonsense and drama
Agreed, this is a major reason why I prefer to play offline. I don't need to play a game thats dragged out because my opponent is salty.

Yes, I declined your friendly quit offer. You're looking for a game to play, so play.All these guys made it their mission to make my life miserable for declining the friendly quit. Taking minutes to wind up between pitches, pausing for a minute and a half every inning, stepping off, throwing over to first base 5 times in a row while I don't even take a lead. I don't know if these shenanigans ever works out for anyone, but if anything it only gets me juiced up to absolutely obliterate you. I honestly don't understand why people are so toxic, salty and miserable. Just play the darn game man. Such a turn off to play like this every single game.
Had a guy decide to watch a replay of his two run HR Saturday which came in the top of the first. Think I ended up with 6 HR's in a 12-3 win and watched every one of them.
I get a lot fewer friendly quit requests since I tanked my RS record and quit out like 30 games so far.
There are HRs you just gotta watch. I don’t get mad for replays. I even replay the one I give up sometimes.
No HR is worth replaying, homers are far from rare
I could say the same thing about real life games but they replay them all on TV. There's nothing wrong or trolling about replaying a homer. It's in the game and it's part of presentation. It brings a part of what is enjoyable about offline play (seeing the ball arc and what a HR replay looks like if a team hit one in real life) and brings it to the online experience.

It takes considerably less skill to hit with 99 Mantle than it does Bellinger.

What I'm saying is that I've played guys who had Mantle and co and couldn't hit a baseball if they'd be swinging a truck.

I played game last night! Bad idea cause I was tired! SDS BS error happens next pitch homer! My opponent HR reply! Then he was beating me good u could tell I had no hope of winning ! And this guy replayed every single homer all 4!! I was already in a bad mood so I hit his players! I'm sorry but I can handle 1 HR reply ! Then if I hit one and watch it! That means my opponent can watch the next! But in no way shape or form should anyone watch 2 HRs to 0 . Or 3 to 0. And so on! I'm sorry that is awful. We all just want to play 9 innings and not turn it into 2hr games wow. People who play this game have zero respect !

I'm sorry but I don't need to see a replay of a 347 foot homer at Shippett, there will be another one just like it coming up very soon

i totally agree, BUT, when someone offers a FQ before a pitch is thrown, just take it or else this is what you end up. whats so hard about looking for a new game? it takes 41 seconds.

I strongly disagree and hate this mindset. You don't hold the power to make my decisions, I do. If you're gonna act like a toxic toddler as a result then you need some serious self reflection.

I sometimes like to look at the good in people. One person asked for a FQ before the first pitch and I was worried he would cheese all game if I declined, so I accepted. I got a PSN message from him a few hours later telling me he had to run to the hospital for his son and thanked me, he could of lied to me but that seems like a lot of effort to lie and he ended up being at 525 when I was only at 440 so he was ranked higher than me too.

Look at it from this perspective:
If I had to run to the hospital for my son, my ps4 could eat dirt and I'd quit straight up and throw my PS4 out the window if that was required. If the emergency really was that high, who in their right mind has time to offer a FQ? -

Nah. I don’t like giving players an easy out. I’m guessing. 99 percent of the time they’re offering an FQ because they’re scared to get smacked. Most of the time they’ll quit out after a few bombs or runs in the early innings.
I don’t ask for friendlies, so why should I accept them?
-
I think the exception to the rule is the mlb stadiums during the day. I’m sure SOME of my opponents do this inadvertently, but the ones that know what they are doing are the ones who will deny your FQ.

Honestly dude, you might want to accept the friendly quit next time.
Sucks, but if someone is already convinced they will lose to you and you make them play, they are gonna do everything to make that game painful. Even when you do win the game, it's not gonna feel like one.
Also to clarify, I'm referring to friendly quits when the game first starts, not when they are down a run or more.
Bro literally before these 2 games I accepted 4 friendly quits. I'm only ranked close to 700 because I played under 20 RS games so far but my record, banner and bat skin makes people not wanna play me until I reach WS where people don't care about that stuff. What am I supposed to do?
Then remove your banner and bat skin until you hit WS...?

This suggestion has already been made multiple times and I already replied multiple times. This is also not the issue, the issue is toxic people who can't cope with their opponent declining a friendly quit offer.

You miss my point. I agree with you. What im saying is, its easier and less stressful to take the FQ than it is to endure 9 innings of bunt dancing and pauses. Ive learned to take the dam FQ abd save myself the aggravation.
