    You can't prove they dashboard

    You’re right. When your opponent loses connection mid-flight on a homerun it is definitely because their power went out at that very instant. A little common sense would allow anyone to determine if a disconnect is due to an opponent dashboading, but that may be beyond some players.

    An easier solution would be to remove prestige requirements from online play since that is the main reason why people care about opponents dashboarding. Otherwise it’s just a free win. HR stats could also be counted the moment the bat makes contact with the ball since the game has already determined the outcome at that point, but I have to imagine that due to the way the game collects stats SDS isn’t capable of making that simple change. Otherwise they would have done it by now.

    Yes, to the fullest extent of the law.

    Seriously though, the probability of your internet consistently cutting out at the moment your opponent hits a home run while you are losing is unbelievably low. Like Michael Jordan showing up at your house for a pick up game of basketball, him losing said pick up game, and then buying you a pony low.

    Edit: I forgot to mention that Bill Murray and Bugs Bunny showed up to watch the pick up game. That part is important.

    Your honor my client has clearly established that there is enough reasonable doubt to show his spotty internet is the reason for the coincidental drops.

    Judge: Not guilty on all charges

    Client: I'm finna dashboard everyone leggggooooooo

    Here's a funny thought.

    How you feel about the computer dashboarding you during moments?

    Oh wait. The same people dashboarding games, dashboard the computer during multi game moments.

    If they could make in-progress plays count when one party disconnects that would solve everything, at least with homers. If your opponent knows the ball is leaving there’s no reason why the game shouldn’t recognize it as well. As for those saying it’s not a big issue I disagree. The best cards in the game are prestiged cards and in order to get them you have to grind online (heavily for some), having some of those stats not count because someone quits mid flight is garbage. If we were to boost for those stats it’d be frowned upon, why should I get penalized for doing it the right way?

    If you don’t dashboard in multi game moments you are just giving yourself unnecessary stress in moments. Solution to the online Dashboarding thing is just to not have online missions. Simple

    if they dashboard in Ranked Seasons- enjoy the win. much more important than the 3 run jack you just hit with whoever. If they dashboard in events- move on..the games are so fast it is what it is and again, a free win. This isn't too big of an issue compared to a lot of the things they still need to work on.

    Flawed logic. I don't care about dashboarding personally, but off the top of my head a solution I see making more sense something where the current play or inning ends. Treat it as someone putting their controller down where outfielders won't throw the ball, pitchers will only throw meat, etc.

    At the end of the play or even the end of the inning give the "lost connection to opponent" notification and the win to the player who is still there.

    Another idea that would potentially work would be a cool down timer. If you disconnect from a game you can't play online for a designated time. Multiple disconnects within a certain time frame add length to the timer.

    I'm not going to say it should be easy to add into the game because I know nothing about the back-end coding side of things, but other games do implement things like this so I know at the very least it IS possible.

    Lower the post game reward %, stubs, and XP every time somebody dashboards. It’s a very simple solution that most games like this already have.

    Dashboard once you get 99% of the rewards, no bid deal. People that have done it hundreds of times don’t need stubs and XP for playing the game, they are doing the opposite.

    Massive waste of time and not to mention it’s not against the T.O.S to lose connection

    The problem with this is that it drowns out the legitimate reports - people using IP attacks, very offensive team names, etc. I play hundreds of games a year, and only feel “reporting” someone warranted 1-2 times a year. Don’t be the boy so cries “wolf”.

    I actually got dashboarded by the hurricane during a showdown a couple days ago. I took Jake McGee deep with JD Martinez and my power went out before it landed.

    I think the simplest most effective solution to make online gameplay more fair is for SDS to send an electric shock through the controller anytime something is done that upsets their opponent.

    You're always trying to put up a front.

    You only play against CPU, so you wouldn't know anything about dashboarding, and the few games you've played online, if anybody dashboarded, it would be you. LMAO.

    I play mostly online lol. I just played conquest yesterday. Go check you facts first bud. I just don't play ranked like you. I play events mostly and do offline grinding.

    With that horrible average, you should only play against CPU. LMFAO.
