Drive by trucker is just amazing at the game so it doesn’t effect him. But I definitely agree. I had never lost a stage 2 showdown. But I’m only 50-50 on them now. Just lost a final showdown when I was only down 11-15. Didn’t get my first hit until 4 outs left. So many good-good and good-squared up outs.
I’m really nothing special at the game lmao.
Stage 2 showdowns are as easy as it gets.
Being easy has absolutely nothing to do with it when anything you get ahold of flutters to the outfield or when you get a man on 1st you know a double play is coming no matter how high in the zone you make contact.
That just isn’t true. I’ve never had those issues in Showdown. If I hit a ball hard and in the air with a power hitter, it almost always leaves. And double plays are easy to stay out of, just get under the ball.

No one can correctly say what is easy or difficult for other people. We get it. You find it easy. So what? You are not everyone.
Many, many people find them easy.
And technically, with Stage 2 being on Veteran, they are easy. It’s an easy difficulty.

Well, it would be tough to make them any easier.

I wouldn’t say they are hard, but can be frustrating when the CPU has gold glovers everywhere. Common fielders with their diving catches and robbing homers is getting ridiculous.

Again you are wrong. Easy or difficult are perspectives which are based on many factors: skill level, time to play, enjoyment, and many others. Just because from my perspective you are a [censored], for example, doesn't make it Truth. See how it works? You do not get to decide Truth, only your perspective. Another example would be how I find the concept of perspective easy, but you find that difficult.

I think what he was trying to point out is that if you look at the difficulties compared to how other games scale them Vetwran would be considered easy mode.
Rookie=Beginner/story mode
Veteran=easy
All Star=normal
HOF=hard
Legend=hardestSo even tho the "easy" difficulty may still be difficult for some people, it is still considered "easy".

Not really, no.
It's pretty clear they stealth buffed showdown sliders in the last update. Not sure why you're so hell bent on pushing back against the majority that have the mental capacity to notice it.
Yes, I beat the 4th inning showdown easily, and yes, they were easier BEFORE the last patch. Both can be true.

It is very obvious that SDS mucked with the showdown sliders in the last patch. Exit velocity is an absolute disaster (way worse than any other mode) and timing windows are incredibly small for “veteran”. We get it, your programmers are third rate, but if you put something on veteran let it play like veteran.
Want a tissue? Calling people trying to work in a pandemic "third rate", grow up

I have not noticed any difference whatsoever. And I’ve played plenty of showdowns before and after.
If anything, I’ve been winning them even more easily lately.

I think they made the moments in between easier, but the final boss def has more diving plays made by the fielders and good contact resulting in lazy flys. Like I said, I beat them easily, but have noticed the bosses take me a few more outs than normal.

Stage 2 is easy, but I have noticed some differences lately. The computer hits the ball better and I’ve lost several “ do not give up a run or honerun” moments and they also have started to hit and run often.

Noone ever wants to step back and go "maybe I'm in a slump" its always straight to "SDS programmed the game to hate me"

It’s not a slump though, it’s observational based on gameplay. Go into a play vs cpu game with the same team you have in showdown (and even without the perks) the gameplay is way better on the same difficulty level. I’m not complaining because I lost (I beat the AL twice yesterday), but because the gameplay is awful and different.

There's no argument that fielders are juiced in showdown but thats been known from the beginning. I agree with the people who say they haven't seen any difference. From my experience it hasn't changed.

You really think its the majority? The same 12 people are the ones posting about showdown being too hard. The showdowns at launch (1st inning and stage 1’s) were hard, but the loud MINORITY got it changed to be easier. I failed the 4th inning showdown 4 times. Not because it was hard, because it was my fault because I wasn’t focusing like I should. Just because showdown requires some patience and focus doesn’t mean that it is hard. It shouldn’t be so easy that you can beat it while watching netflix in the background

I have no issue with showdown being either easy or difficult, I would must like it to be fair. Low exit velocity on good/good or good /squared makes no sense. Hitting the ball near the top of the PCI shouldn't result in ground ball double plays, having the ball completely inside the PCI should never be good/popped and the worst of all the 110mph liners right down the line where the fielder dives and grabs it, while landing on the bag for a double play happens way too often.
