Bottom line is, you aren’t as good as you think you are. Few of us are, my friend.
Sometimes the game rewards your opponent when their inputs aren’t great. Sometimes you aren’t rewarded with P/P. It happens.
The thing is, the really good players—the “goons”—can consistently get good inputs and can overcome their opponent four lucky homers.
Those of us who aren’t that consistent get all mad when our good inputs aren’t rewarded because we don’t got them frequently enough to overcome our opponent’s lucky streak.
Face it, bro. You’re probably a slightly above average player. That’s it. Accept that you’ll win some and you’ll lose some. You’ll hit a homer on 11 PCI placement and you’ll give up homers on the same.
I’m in the same boat as you. I’m about 175-98 or so in RS. Good enough to win more than I lose, but not even close to being a “goon.”
Accept your limitations in life and find joy where you are, in video games and elsewhere. Otherwise you’ll die miserable.
this was actually very well said. Keep up the good work sir
-
What @maurice91932 said. The only issue I see with this game is the gameplay is different day to day and is never consistent! One day you feel like you finally got hitting figured out and the next day, play the same exact way and you can't seem to touch the ball. I'm a well below average player (my record speaks for itself). But I do hear ya! I've come close to shattering the game, but I have anger management issues lol

Is the game perfect? Definitely not. Is it a bad game? Also definitely not and if this defines a bad game to you then man you have been spoiled by video games.
Look who's back. The guy with a grand total of 30 RS games to tell us all we are wrong in his "expert" opinion. Ok Ramone we got it games awesome. Now run back to your cut and paste job for RNG the Troll 21
You're clearly young and have never played a game with an actual game breaking bug that makes you restart or games with bugs that literally make the game unplayable. Im not saying the game is a masterpiece. Im saying its not a steaming pile of trash like all of you guys seem to think
But you literally barely play the game so I'm wondering how you know? You keep sidestepping that point honey.
I play offline because I don't have the luxury of playing online uninterrupted for 45 minutes. I was taking care of a family member earlier this year for a few mo ths before they passed away and am currently dealing with my own health problems. That is why I can't play ranked as much as I would like.
Ok that's fine. I'm just wondering how you know we are wrong then? Oh you're just a mouthy know it all dbag is that it?
You're not worth the time. You call me a know it all when anyone that disagrees with you works for SDS. I can accept the shortcomings in the game but people like you can't accept that you lose so the game has to be trash.
Lol, so again you can't explain how you (an offline only player) know more about online play than everyone else on here. Gotcha kiddo
Because I played online at the beginning and play events because they are quick. That doesn't fit your narrative so your gonna come up with some other excuse about how I dont know what I'm talking about. Its ok, keep believing you should win everything. Also you insult me after I tell you I was taking care of a dying family member yet I'm the dbag? Enjoy being an [censored] buddy, not worth anymore of my time. One day when mommy and daddy aren't making your dinner and paying your bills you'll get it
I'm 40 games over .500 128-88.
I consider myself an above average player and have enough of a sample size to confidently say this game is BOOTY cheeks online.
Save the RNG [censored] for Events to little Timmy and Susan have a place to get gifted wins and hits.
Let RS be mano y mano, high emphasis on rewarding user input. BOOM FIXED

This game cannot function without RNG. In fact, literally almost every game ever made could not function without RNG

The problem is SDS doesn’t understand how to set the skill gap correctly. All they do is mess with timing windows and pitch speeds to balance the game and it’s not only ineffective, it’s become a tired act. They need to rebuild the game, because the problems are baked into this game engine.

This is the correct take.
I think it's far too complicated to fix what we have

And the obligatory "See ya tomorrow" post.
In response to the obligatory humble brag post from the people that think they should never lose.
Didn't say I should never lose. I've lost 161 times in Ranked season. If you can't see the point of my post then I really don't value your input whatsoever. Keep defending the game and let's see where that gets us
I put forth no defense of the game. I'm just pointing out that posts like these give off a sense of entitlement.
"I'm so awesome look at my fantastic timing only to be screwed by the defense. How dare my crappy opponent beat me when they can only muster cheap hits?"
That's what these types of threads sound like. Maybe I've got you all wrong but that's seemingly the attitude of a lot of the posters on this board. Like it's some crime against nature when they lose or hit into bad luck. The same people that complain about getting screwed out of hits, are the same ones with guys hitting 400 throughout their lineup.
You're not going to quit playing the game and no one would really care if you did.

If there was any confusion as to the point of my post I will clear it up. It wasn't a post saying I should always win. It wasn't a post to say the other person deserved to lose. I have lost plenty at Ranked season and don't mind losing. But when you are trying to defend a game that allows 4 HR's on what I believe was bad PCI placement. 3 11's and a 12. (maybe a 12 Hr is justified every now and then) While you're doing pretty much everything you are supposed to to hit the ball. 14' /15's. Even a Perfect that was right at the 2B... It just isn't fun to play anymore and really it hasn't been for quite a while.
your mistake here pal is that you pay attention to stupid metrics that mean nothing - just play the game and enjoy it for what it is - it should play smoother when you are not nerding out on R12 B6 H21 eeeeeeeeeergoooooo must be a perfect dingerrrrrrrrr

Ok, so SDS put that in the game for no reason at all? The feedback is there for us to look at. I'm tired of everyone using your same line. So either SDS admits they have no idea WTF they are doing in regards to the hitting engine or I will keep looking at the feedback.

I have been trying to stay away from online too
-
I think the underlying issue with this game is that pitching is so broken and sds has either decided to ignore it all year or intended it to be that way. When the game first came out hitting felt pretty rewarding until people complained that it was too op. But in reality that wasn’t the issue. Regardless of input/pitcher confidence/pitcher attributes, the pitching in this game is completely random. Instead of fixing the pitching they tweaked the hitting and ended up with a game where both pitching and hitting outcomes feel very random
-
In all honesty it’s a broken game. I’m not gonna pretend to know how or why things play the way they do but we all experience the awfulness that is online play. One game you can’t do any wrong, Everything drops & you beat someone who’s 45-6. Then the next day you get 2 hits against someone whose 25-47. There is just a massive feeling that it’s mostly dice rolls that determine each game’s outcome.

yeah i mean that is exactly your bigger problem - you are looking at stupid metrics and whatever SDS decided to do with that part of the game
you need to listen closely and read slowly - who cares what the reason SDS put that in the game, it is a stupid metric. just play the game.

I think your wrong on this one man and you’re being quite rude about it, taking a little joy in kicking a man while he is down, something people on this forum have to much fun with. I get it, there’s complaints, but unfortunately this game is not in a state where it is all rainbows and butterflies. It’s really easy to ignore this stuff too.
An SDS support staff member specifically told me, after asking specifically how to interpret the accuracy of the PCI analysis and batter analysis as a whole, and I was told that those results are there for a reason and a great way to understand where you are making mistakes and collect data about your ABs to try and get better results in the future. After all, that’s how you play the game of baseball, especially IRL where advanced metrics are huge nowadays. Please don’t spread bad information. Have a good night.

with all due respect, i am not wrong on this - you can believe what you want, but its tiring to hear baby whining from the kids on this forum - the world is in a complete mess, and here you guys are talking about stupid metrics and R15 / perfect / perfect / this is nonsense - get a sense of perspective and stop being so baby baby with the emotions

So the guy disagrees with you, says you're being rude, says that an SDS staff member confirmed the PCI results are there for us to use and learn from and you call him / us "baby baby" for arguing our points. Ok. Welp...don't really think I'll be taking anything you say into consideration from this point forward.
Also, don't feel like you need to respond to this because I'm not going to waste my time on another response.

See it must be hard to even read these threads from up there on that high horse.
Those things are accurate according to an SDS employee, so I’ll take these word for it. It’s apart of the game so why not look at it? It helps people improve their gameplay.
The beautiful thing though is you can ignore it and move on. OP was happy to discuss things in a mature manner but here you are happy to hop on a talk [censored]. It’s funny because I don’t see you creating threads about positive things and active on threads talking about things YOU think should be discussed nearly as much as I see you adding toxicity to these threads, calling everyone a baby for a couple likes. I hate that this place is flooded with negativity as much as the next guy but I’m not going to be a complete asshole to people that want to express what they think about the game.

you still don't get it and you are at this point wrong
you're missing the point but i don't need to explain it all to you - you can circle [censored] echo chamber with other guys who float your boat - the beauty of the internet right ?!
