    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 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

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 ?! 😉

    I didn’t miss your point. You made it clear that he shouldn’t focus on a part of the game that should help him improve. And it also makes you feel better to talk down to him and feel like his opinion doesn’t matter.

    The game is just not fun anymore. Ranked seasons is a complete joke. Just played a game where I was losing 4-0 off of HR's that were PCI's of 11/11/11/12.

    The guys was several games under .500 and was batting below .250 with over half his lineup.

    Meanwhile I get to lineout and groundout on and hit warning track shots with 15/14 PCI's. It just isn't fun when people get rewarded for consistently bad gameplay and you're doing everything that you are supposed to to win the game.

    Anyone else about fed up and done with it ?

    Been fed up since official launch ( not pre order). I hit 4-5 a game to the track with “good” feedback 14/15.... always been trash. I normally win 6-2 due to 2 off the plate or bad placement contacts for bombs

    I happen to agree it’s a great baseball game, maybe in need of some big fixes, but I still enjoy it. In fact, I never once stated my opinion in this thread so what are you going on about? I just pointed out how you’re being toxic, calling people names, and that you were spreading bad information. I’m done with your nonsense lol. Have a good one.
