Get good and you will realize skill matters a lot
To an extent. Connections play more of a role than skill.
Imagine those games where you are hitting everything, dotting pitches, etc. Now imagine that is your connection every game. Probably be pretty [censored] good wouldn't you? Now imagine most of your games being those games where you are swinging a pool noodle, hanging non-stop pitches, etc. Probably be pretty crappy at the game huh? This is what you guys need to figure out.

I just wish the connection was equally as good when I'm home or visitor. I can face the same pitcher and when I'm home it looks 10 mph slower. Also for some reason why does the pitch seem like its way faster when the pitcher is in the stretch

Narrator: "It is debatable."
The top 500 players in 17/18/19 are still on top or near the top of the leaderboards.
lol exactly
OP's sad

Honest question. I see you bring up connection issues a lot, so I'm wondering something and maybe I've just missed it. Do you think when we have issues where it seems like we're swinging a noodle is because we have poor connection or because the other player has poor connection?
I'm wondering because I RARELY hit HR in this game, but I hit a good amount of balls with "good" timing and on a good enough location with the PCI to support a HR result, but I hit warning track shots for days. I had a game a few days ago where I hit a slider down and middle with Harper good timing (pulled to RF) that barely made the warning track. Fortunately I had a guy at 3b and got the tying run home, but it should've been a walk off HR based on what I see other people do. I have fiber optic internet with 75/75 speeds and am hardwired. I have no clue about my ping rate or anything like that, but we stream everything and I never have issues with buffering or speeds. I haven't played other games since I quit playing Battlefield and COD about 5 years ago and back then I only had 15/15 internet and didn't seem to have issues.
How would I know if it's something on my end and what could I even do?

I bring it up because it is the #1 issue with this game. At some point, I will give up and quit this game just like I did Madden (last one I bought had Ray Lewis on the cover).
I have fiber internet in the center of the U.S. My game plays worse on wired. It basically goes wired < wireless < mobile hot spot. It is possible it could be my internet but other games such as Pubg run on 30 ping with hardly any packet loss ever. I know that sometimes I can turn on 99 easily and most times I can't turn on 90. I know sometimes my 99 speed outfielder runs 99 and others he is hitching along like Eloy Jimemez (truly one of the worst defensive outfielders I have ever seen but he is going to be a superstar at the dish). I want 95 to be 95 every game. I want my 99 outfielder to run 99 regardless of the score.
I would try wireless and see if there is a slight improvement. I have had my isp out multiple times checking everything and it is usually fine. More than likely it is not your internet but something in the game.

The only thing that is going to fix this game is when a competitor comes along and we don’t have to deal with SDS any more.

Well the only 2 companies that have a chance to compete cannot hold SDS jockstrap when it somes to game quality and overall ratings. So careful what you wish for.

yah, it could end up backfiring. They could see how bad the competitors attempts are and realize they can ease up a bit because they have nothing to worry about. If its anything like NBA 2k or Madden then SDS is pretty safe.
