    I would prefer this too, actually would be nice if you had to chance like in casual online to choose difficulty. Except you can’t go lower than the threshold but you can go higher.

    I've played a bunch of casuals on HOF and some are lower ranked guys and some have been prestiges with loaded teams, I think I have won every single one, or was winning when they quit because I don't think I ever got to finish one.

    I would like to play against some stronger peeps on here for practice, anyone feel free to add me and message me to play friendlies, even if you're lower I'll try to help you out with looks.

    I generally only play to warm up for ranked or to try out pitchers, I rarely finish also

    Anyone from SDS care to comment? Are there technical reasons why this wouldn't work? Nothing changes except the lower ranked team get's a choice to move up or play at their current level.

    This is a great idea. Plus then you know whether your playing on AS or HOF cause when your in the low mid 700s you just don't know for sure.

    I think it should also show the rating of both players in the load up screen. That way you know what difficulty you’re gonna be playing

    I don't, for some guys that would be a nightmare. I'd be cool with it but some people just wanna have some beers and have a good time.

    The thing is you don't want to make it harder for the guys who need to be in the lower levels. But guys who are trying to move up, get better, and be more competitive would benefit.

    BTW if SDS likes my idea, I'd take a free Donaldson and some packs. maybe a free future boss choice.. I'm not greedy 😉

    My belief is that the game should default to the higher ranked player. A 700 player should not play AS difficulty even if they’re opponent is 600 or lower. Matchmaking can be fixed so you only play within your division it’s just a slider tweak on the devs end.

    I just think they need to go to hof until 900, but they won’t with is going cross platform. They need to fix how easy it is to foul balls off and reward better input over sh@tty

    I disagree with this. The higher ranked guy has seen the lower division. The lower ranked guy may never have seen the higher rank.

    Yeah, all is probably a bit much, but surely they could lower the minimum threshold and start HOF play at 600. I suppose that could just force things downstream, and many would struggle to make and stay at 600, but I would think that it would open that experience for a good chunk of folks.

    As someone who struggles to keep a 700 rating and gets a few games in at HOF per season, I have to say I miss the HOF levels... prior to this year (and I've been playing this game since it was first released), I've only played H2H in Play Now, and solely used my A's to play nothing but HOF and Legend games. It's just a better experience...
