I check swing every pitch for “timing”
LOLLLLL
Do tell, how do you check your timing? Do you just hope for the best? Do you strike out 10 times a game? Do you just pray to the Gods?
Sadly, no two games play the same online. In one game, you'll be early on 101 FB's, in another game you have to swing as soon as the ball leaves the hand to make late contact.
So, if you find it so funny, spread the secret you're keeping from the rest of us!
30 check swings on 6 innings
you don’t have your timing down after 1 inning? I don’t see the same difference in games that you do , I guess in the words of demise my connection is just good enough to not have to worry about that. I never have to swing as soon as the ball leaves the pitchers hands and I’m certainly not check swinging every pitch like you are. Maybe go talk to your “personal friend CBrev” for tips on how to be good 
️Weird personal attacks, but that tells me everything I need to know about you, thanks for the heads up.
Yes, the better the internet connection, the more lag you experience. I am on Fiber in my house and the game is all over the place. When I play on wifi at work, it's much more stable. There are pages and pages of discussion on the how and why of that. But you are correct, your internet seems to be just right for stable game play.
For some of us, every inning is a completely different experience. As the game rubber bands back and forth to adjust it's an absolute nightmare. It's better if I'm the home team, but I don't want to always back out of games on repeat until I'm at home.
At no time have I ever stated that I check swing every pitch. If you had taken the time to read (I know, tough for you), you would have seen that I used one extreme example from my most recent game. I was offering a possible answer for the OP, certainly not taking a position one way or another on the mechanics.
Later in the thread, I discuss the welcome change with check swings coming to 2021. But go on, tell us how big of a man you are

It’s been the same complaints for 4 years straight with the same .550 winning percentage all 4 years. Here’s a direct quote from you about 19:
“Until I just went back to it. God this game is atrocious. It’s by far the most mind boggling version of mlb ever. I hated 18 but I must say I think 19 is worse. It’s just a random series of outcomes especially on Allstar and below.”
But now because you went 25-0 to World Series in 19 (in March of 2021 mind you) 19 is all good? “Let’s put in 19 and play” C’mon now, if you won more/were better you would not complain near as much as you do. It’ll be the same in 21 I can almost guarantee it.
You know what? I’m going to screen shot this so that when you’re making the same complaints in 21 I’ll have it.
19 is better then 20 I still said the games random I was World Series several times back when that game was hot...when I learned the game...I won. But I didn’t like it. And I don’t like it. But that’s not because I was losing because I was World Series. That’s what you don’t seem to understand. I never thought I’d see what they did with 20 — because even the pitching is random. 19 is not a good game it’s better then 20, there is a huge difference...they are both bad games.
The one statement I would retract is that 18 is better. 18 is def the worst mlb ever. That’s a statement I don’t standby.
Put it this way. If you didn’t play mlb the show before 2017 then Youre opinion is hard to take serious because you didn’t play this game when it was all about input. If you did play before 2017 and you think these games are better. You weren’t that good at inputs back then? I don’t know. But the game in the last few years has been bad. Period. I’m saying 20 is worse then 19 you are saying I’m saying 19 was a great game...nah. I standby the statement that 19 was random. But [censored] I didn’t know then they’d put out and EVEN WORSE game...

But that’s not because I was losing because I was World Series. That’s what you don’t seem to understand. I never thought I’d see what they did with 20 — because even the pitching is random. 19 is not a good game it’s better then 20, there is a huge difference...they are both bad games.
The one statement I would retract is that 18 is better. 18 is def the worst mlb ever. That’s a statement I don’t standby.
> Put it this way. If you didn’t play mlb the show before 2017 then Youre opinion is hard to take serious because you didn’t play this game when it was all about input. If you did play before 2017 and you think these games are better. You weren’t that good at inputs back then? I don’t know. But the game in the last few years has been bad. Period. I’m saying 20 is worse then 19 you are saying I’m saying 19 was a great game...nah. I standby the statement that 19 was random. But [censored] I didn’t know then they’d put out and EVEN WORSE game...
But you haven't ever been good at the game, everything has been the game is random and always out to get me for the last 4 years.

no offense taken! I would have no issues getting destroyed by a better player. I'm not a competitive person...outside of my work

It’s been the same complaints for 4 years straight with the same .550 winning percentage all 4 years. Here’s a direct quote from you about 19:
“Until I just went back to it. God this game is atrocious. It’s by far the most mind boggling version of mlb ever. I hated 18 but I must say I think 19 is worse. It’s just a random series of outcomes especially on Allstar and below.”
But now because you went 25-0 to World Series in 19 (in March of 2021 mind you) 19 is all good? “Let’s put in 19 and play” C’mon now, if you won more/were better you would not complain near as much as you do. It’ll be the same in 21 I can almost guarantee it.

I competed for World Series virtually almost every year they had ranked seasons with the exception of 20
20 I cannot get out of division. The one time I did get to championship I had the season ended so it was back to the allstar dice roll for me. The hitting is slightly more random and the pitching is also now random...makes the game worse. So besides it having a ridiculous amount of randomness I just get frustrated and can’t lock in because 9 lineouts to the defense after giving up a 3-2 homer with 3 check swings, 9 foul tips and a ball dug out of the dirt is bad gameplay...especially after I show patience and good contact on pitches you SHOULD swing at...what’s the point? It’s a dice roll.
Listen the developers admitted that the game is based on simulation and not skill...something I’ve been telling you . You still can’t accept it but they now have ADMITTED that to be the case. So your skill based argument is out the window.
Some of the most respected players in this game admitted this game is a dice roll on allstar and below. BR is like playing roulette.
The simulation style has been growing more and more every year. This year they added more simulation to the pitching...please explain how the developers can admit something that is blatantly obvious within a few games of playing mlb 20. — yet you can’t seem to find it in yourself to accept this fact that is now confirmed by San Diego studios?
Explain this. I can’t get out of division barely. Struggle to get 8-9 wins in BR on 20.
21 beta comes out and I basically don’t lose? Get 12 wins on my first BR attempt?! what happened? I’ll tell you what happened... those 9 line outs became 3 lineouts. And those check swings became strikes. And that ball in the dirt isn’t a homer anymore. That’s exactly what happened. And that’s not me bragging. That should be glaring on the gameplay aspect of things.

Funniest part of this entire thread
I check swing every pitch for “timing”
LOLLLLL
Do tell, how do you check your timing? Do you just hope for the best? Do you strike out 10 times a game? Do you just pray to the Gods?
Sadly, no two games play the same online. In one game, you'll be early on 101 FB's, in another game you have to swing as soon as the ball leaves the hand to make late contact.
So, if you find it so funny, spread the secret you're keeping from the rest of us!
30 check swings on 6 innings
you don’t have your timing down after 1 inning? I don’t see the same difference in games that you do , I guess in the words of demise my connection is just good enough to not have to worry about that. I never have to swing as soon as the ball leaves the pitchers hands and I’m certainly not check swinging every pitch like you are. Maybe go talk to your “personal friend CBrev” for tips on how to be good ️Weird personal attacks, but that tells me everything I need to know about you, thanks for the heads up.
Yes, the better the internet connection, the more lag you experience. I am on Fiber in my house and the game is all over the place. When I play on wifi at work, it's much more stable. There are pages and pages of discussion on the how and why of that. But you are correct, your internet seems to be just right for stable game play.
For some of us, every inning is a completely different experience. As the game rubber bands back and forth to adjust it's an absolute nightmare. It's better if I'm the home team, but I don't want to always back out of games on repeat until I'm at home.
At no time have I ever stated that I check swing every pitch. If you had taken the time to read (I know, tough for you), you would have seen that I used one extreme example from my most recent game. I was offering a possible answer for the OP, certainly not taking a position one way or another on the mechanics.
Later in the thread, I discuss the welcome change with check swings coming to 2021. But go on, tell us how big of a man you are
Please do go on and try to justify check swinging constantly as getting your timing
we should run a game sometime, I’d love to see how many of these check swings are flails Great, what's your PSN? I'm available now.
RIP to you good sir. I smell a massacre by Canuck.
well, I replied within a minute of his post....I've been waiting for 2 hours. Sorry he doesn't want to play. Ego's are a tough thing to handle.
Maybe another day.
You didn’t reply to my challenge. Throw in 19.
lol, I'd love to, that was a fun game. I'm a digital download guy, but I can have it tomorrow!
Hey I meant that call out for this dude not you but we can always play a friendly.

All star sucks nobody denies that, the difference between actual good players and you is we still win on all star.. I think I’m hitting .500 in BR, in a 3 inning event on all star where 3 swings of randomness can lose you the game I’m in 4th in the event using a bunch of random dudes to try and get prestige stats. Why is it that every half decent player can get out of all star with ease but nah you this amazing player who the game is always against can’t? Something doesn’t add up here. Well I mean it does for me, but doesn’t seem to add up for you. I’m out, enjoy complaining about how the game is always out to get you week 2 of 21. I’m done with your nonsense. Go hit BP and get better.

I’ve proven beyond a reasonable doubt that I’m better then half decent... so. You are in denial. And you aren’t as good as you think you are.
I barely lost in the beta bud. How do you explain that? How do you explain going 25-0 to get to World Series but I can’t string together 2 wins in 20? how do you explain getting 12 BR wins in 21 on my first attempt but I can’t even come close to that in 20. How did I beat top 50 players in every mlb the show I’ve ever played including the beta but in 20 I lose to guys that are rated 550
When you have answers that make sense. I’ll listen. But your whole reason for coming at me is so you can brag about how good you are.
Congrats you’ve been fooled into thinking this whole time you were really beast in a game that the developers have now admitted is not based on user skill this year. Lol.

Lowest I’ve finished in the overall rankings since I’ve started playing online is 236th this isn’t a 20 thing my guy.
Counting a 25-0 run to World Series in a game that nobody plays anymore is not the way to judge anything but like I said, I’ll see your complaints in a month
