I don't like to think theres scripting, but sometimes this game makes it hard to think otherwise.

I guess my 68-19 RS record is rng/scripted right? While I understand your frustration it just seems like the same tired rant that you here in these forums. Sorry bud it’s not scripted it’s called confidence. If you’re able to get your pitcher to a high level of confidence those so called scripted moments will be mitigated.

I think you're in the wrong spot. I'm pretty sure r/humblebrag is where you meant to post this.....

Clearly September 5th through September 14th were scripted.

You were the one complaining, not me. I was just refuting your rant by using my own personal record as an example. I don’t claim to be a great top 50 player, I do however believe that what you described is not an example of the game being scripted.

The G.O.A.T. has tagged me. I'm #blessed fam. You should all be jealous of me and my status now. Don't look at me plebs.

I mean, that must mean your 5,6,7 game wins in a row are also scripted no? It can't only be when your opponent is getting every break?
I agree, because I've certainly won games I had no business winning lol.
And that is absolutely a fine stance to take, I'm not sure if it's scripting, or it's just the game is too random, but it's something. I just get annoyed at the posts that only focus on the losing. It's basically taking the stance "I win because I'm good, I lose because the game is fixed"

I think the game is designed to keep things close for prolonged player interest. I think that includes keeping the average player’s record at or around .500. For sure there are good players with winning records and poor players with losing records, but it’s pretty much a bell curve, to me.

So what you’ve just pointed out would be the argument that it’s not scripted. Good players have good records. Average players have average records ie as many wins as losses. And bad players have losing record. Not sure bell curve is the right term. A bell curve suggest a singular event which you’re trying to quantify, not a bunch of random events which cannot be quantified.

I honestly don't think if the population of the game did form a bell curve, that it would be weird or out of place, I would say that's pretty normal, why would there be an over abundance of either bad or good players? Most would fall somewhere in the middle

I would say this game is scripted swing by swing. Not game by game.
One player with more power can hit a fly out. While the next batter with less power will get the same exact pci placement on the same pitch and it’s a HR -

Yeah, I agree. I just happen to think that there is programming in the game designed around that idea of the “average” player. “Scripted” is maybe not the right word, but the gameplay is far from transparent and neutral and I’d be surprised if anyone argued that.

My opinion is if the connection is off weird sh happens if not not it works how it's intended.

Breaks go both ways but very few people remember when they're on the positive side of variance.
