Say what you want, but things look much more stable.
What did they do to fix it? I don't really care. It's working. They certainly didn't sit around waiting to see if things got better on it's own.
Yes, I shouldn't be congratulating them for something that should have been working all along. There's something to be said though for the fact that they did work out some of these big issues with connectivity. Most of the grunt work being done by SDS folks that have never posted on the boards before.
Anyways, it's refreshing to not comb through 12 posts of people saying the same thing, whining, complaining, raging etc.
Lol, this post is so dumb and assinine....coming in here to be relieved that people arn't complaining about something that's been fixed?....when there was A) plenty of reason for customers to be upset, people seem to forget just how many modes the server issues effected...lol or how the other broken parts/issues with this game were definetly and rightly contributing to consumer feelings. not to mention how there's been literally 0 communication except for Collins snarky/or none informative remarks. So you didnt like the complaining and now you're all relieved and high and mighty about their being no server complaints cause SDS did their job and lived up to one of the things they promised with this game? GTFO
They call us the "community" what a joke, maybe a handfull of you if I've played with you online or communicated with you on here are "Community" but I'm a customer of SDS, nothing more, they certainly don't view me as a "community member" or any of you. We've seen and heard numerous times now over the years what SDS members think of the "community"
Stop blaming people who've had a bad experience and feel this is the place to voice it...cause it IS THE PLACE TO VOICE it....especially considering the complete lack of communication on any platform and the complete ignoring of support tickets...
These "im better than other members"' posts are total BS. Servers being fixed is the first step to fixing the issues this game and the LEAST they could do.
You have some SERIOUS personal issues. You are reading way too much into stuff and have taken the server issues personal to the point where it rivals somebody stealing your puppy.
Just like you have a RIGHT to complain, I have a RIGHT to be relieved that there is less complaining.
Never claimed once in the YEARS that I've been posting here, that I am "better than other members." Asking folks to calm down, change perspective or just not repeat stuff that's been said 7412 times, really isn't that.
You have some rage man. Rightfully so, I guess. Who am I to judge how you handle stress, and disappointment.
Don't come at me though because you aren't happy. You could have easily passed over this thread and moved on with your day.

He never once said thier was anything wrong about people voicing thier opnion. His thread is referring to not having to comb through so many threads about same topic.
The people that posted multiple threads about same topic are "Idiots" there i said it yeah morons who don't know what a search feature is.

no anger what so ever. Just because I have a thoughtfull post with opinions, dosn't equate to anger buddy.
Also to say that "I didn't say this" is not the point, to make this post in the first place implies all of those things about your opinions on the people complaining here. Sorry, not sorry

The problem is this. Even if EVERYTHING was flawless, people would still whine about something. That's how it goes. The servers have been awesome. For days now

People will always find something to not like but we all cant act like the frustration hasnt been somewhat warranted. yea I get it that people come onto the forums and act like idiots but lets be real, there are people on the other side of the argument that do the same stuff on here.

This is off topic, but since I have you here, and since you seem to know some stuff about servers and such, I’ll go ahead and ask: what is happening when pitch speeds become ridiculously fast against certain opponents? For instance, you can play against someone who throws Chapman against you and he is manageable, and other times, and on the same difficulty level, he is throwing vapor. I understand there are human factors involved like fatigue and focus and what not, but the phenomenon to which I’m referring, is beyond that. Some of us talked a lot about that last year, but I don’t think we had your expertise. Does ping play a part? Is there some sort of connection compensation going on? We talked about not making the head to head connection be pvp but instead connecting the matchup through a dedicated server. Is there anything to that? Thanks.

Being frustrated and being a whiny btch are 2 different things. Its a video game. If half the people took their real lives as serious as they do a video game, they wouldn't be complaining about it.

That's fair but the same way people are allowed to voice their support for the game, others are allowed to voice their displeasure. Its a public forum, thats whats going to happen. Especially when a majority of the people on the forum are upset.

Well your compehension skills and mine differ then, because i read the part where he said it should've been working all along so he was actually in agreeance with people.
He simply just did not like combing through 20 threads that said same thing when 1 would've been fine. And i 100% agree.

We talked about not making the head to head connection be pvp but instead connecting the matchup through a dedicated server. Is there anything to that? Thanks.
My understanding.... and this is based on feedback over the years and nothing else because I don't write their code but I HAVE been playing online games for 20+ years....
My understanding is that in H2H, one console is considered the home team and is also hosting the game. During the game, your stats and data is being fed to the SDS servers for stats, progress etc. All warehouse data type stuff. Post game, both consoles send results to SDS data server, reconciliation takes place, both users get splash screen with the result. Both parties go about their business.
Lag during game play is primarily on the "host console". Either the connection they have, or your connection to them. More often than not though, the home team's ping is going to drive the bus, unless one user has a connection so bad, even AOL would laugh.
For online sports games, it's a P2P (peer to peer) connection. That's because it's two users only.
Call of Duty for instance is server based game play, that ping has a larger impact on. MMORPG games use your PC or console for graphics rendering only. Moving around a map requires communication with a server for your location on the node. It's why games use zones and instances for travel and very few massive games are seemless. Elder Scrolls comes to mind.
Hope this helps answer "high level" what you are probably questioning. Those stutters on pitches when you are throwing, are likely not stuttering for the opponent as well.

I can uderstand that. I guess what I meant was that if they took everything in their life this serious, they wouldn't care so much about a game. It's a hobby. Something fun for my downtime. I have way more important things to put my lifes energy towards.. Family, job, friends, planning for the furure etc... If I'm going to put all my energy and demand answers its going to be something that actually affects my life.. This video game does not. That's what i was trying to say. And I'm not directing it at you. You seem level-headed

I know you werent referring to me, I appreciate it. I agree with you 100% and I feel the same. Thats the same reason why I will never understand the people that spend thousands of dollars on the game. but just playing devils advocate here, there are some people that this one of the few sources of entertainment they have. Sounds sad but im willing to bet that there a lot of people like that on these forums and I can see where they would be coming from on taking it so seriously. Im right there with you though, frustration is one thing but coming on here to start arguments and moan and groan just seems like a waste of time

We won't know if it's resolved until Friday and Saturday. It worked fine for me last mid-week as well and then Friday and Saturday I couldn't play at all. So we don't know if it's resolved yet. This thread is premature.
Oh but the threads the OP is referring to weren't premature? You know the ones i'm talking about. The ones posted at Noon titled "Wonder how long server will be down tonight?" 8 hours prior to scheduled announced maintenance? Remember those? , but that isn't considered premature?
I don't as I never saw threads like that, but then I don't get on the forums 24/7 lol. Regardless we will know this weekend.
Then how can you say his post is premature without knowing of the other? Kind of a contradiction isn't it? And how would you know if someone was on 24/7 if you aren't?
Are you just in a bad mood or what lol? I was obviously referring to this thread being premature as we don't know if the servers are fixed... Nothing to do with any other threads.

Bad mood? Why b/c i presented logic towards a post all of a sudden i'm in a bad mood? I'm just asking questions.
Your just trying to pick a fight pointing out petty things and taking what I said out of context. Have fun with that. I'm out.
Not picking a fight in no way shape or form, i was pointing out things in your post that needed clarification.
For instance you said "Nothing to do with any other threads." When title of this thread refers to exactly that point, So how am i taking it out of context when you obviously don't even know what the context is?
But that's fine you have a nice day!

This is off topic, but since I have you here, and since you seem to know some stuff about servers and such, I’ll go ahead and ask: what is happening when pitch speeds become ridiculously fast against certain opponents? For instance, you can play against someone who throws Chapman against you and he is manageable, and other times, and on the same difficulty level, he is throwing vapor. I understand there are human factors involved like fatigue and focus and what not, but the phenomenon to which I’m referring, is beyond that. Some of us talked a lot about that last year, but I don’t think we had your expertise. Does ping play a part? Is there some sort of connection compensation going on? We talked about not making the head to head connection be pvp but instead connecting the matchup through a dedicated server. Is there anything to that? Thanks.
My understanding.... and this is based on feedback over the years and nothing else because I don't write their code but I HAVE been playing online games for 20+ years....
My understanding is that in H2H, one console is considered the home team and is also hosting the game. During the game, your stats and data is being fed to the SDS servers for stats, progress etc. All warehouse data type stuff. Post game, both consoles send results to SDS data server, reconciliation takes place, both users get splash screen with the result. Both parties go about their business.
Lag during game play is primarily on the "host console". Either the connection they have, or your connection to them. More often than not though, the home team's ping is going to drive the bus, unless one user has a connection so bad, even AOL would laugh.
For online sports games, it's a P2P (peer to peer) connection. That's because it's two users only.
Call of Duty for instance is server based game play, that ping has a larger impact on. MMORPG games use your PC or console for graphics rendering only. Moving around a map requires communication with a server for your location on the node. It's why games use zones and instances for travel and very few massive games are seemless. Elder Scrolls comes to mind.
Hope this helps answer "high level" what you are probably questioning. Those stutters on pitches when you are throwing, are likely not stuttering for the opponent as well.
Thanks for the response. Makes sense. I’ve often wondered if all star and HoF looks the same for everybody, like if where you live and your connection impacts how the game plays for you. I’m sure a bunch of other stuff plays into this, but I’ll be watching some YouTuber play and he’ll be able to keep his pci neutral, recognize, say, a high fastball, and it seems like he has so much time to get his pci where it needs to be. I’m sure when videos are uploaded to YouTube it’s not captured exactly how it was when the person was playing, but everything looks so much slower.

The problem is this. Even if EVERYTHING was flawless, people would still whine about something. That's how it goes. The servers have been awesome. For days now
People will always find something to not like but we all cant act like the frustration hasnt been somewhat warranted. yea I get it that people come onto the forums and act like idiots but lets be real, there are people on the other side of the argument that do the same stuff on here.
Being frustrated and being a whiny btch are 2 different things. Its a video game. If half the people took their real lives as serious as they do a video game, they wouldn't be complaining about it.
That's fair but the same way people are allowed to voice their support for the game, others are allowed to voice their displeasure. Its a public forum, thats whats going to happen. Especially when a majority of the people on the forum are upset.
I can uderstand that. I guess what I meant was that if they took everything in their life this serious, they wouldn't care so much about a game. It's a hobby. Something fun for my downtime. I have way more important things to put my lifes energy towards.. Family, job, friends, planning for the furure etc... If I'm going to put all my energy and demand answers its going to be something that actually affects my life.. This video game does not. That's what i was trying to say. And I'm not directing it at you. You seem level-headed
I know you werent referring to me, I appreciate it. I agree with you 100% and I feel the same. Thats the same reason why I will never understand the people that spend thousands of dollars on the game. but just playing devils advocate here, there are some people that this one of the few sources of entertainment they have. Sounds sad but im willing to bet that there a lot of people like that on these forums and I can see where they would be coming from on taking it so seriously. Im right there with you though, frustration is one thing but coming on here to start arguments and moan and groan just seems like a waste of time
I can too. I understand gaming is big is some people's lives and its all they have for the most part. I'm not judging anyone's situation or what life has thrown at them.. Video games are a way to escape and are just plain fun. And I also agree that people have every right to voice their concerns and ask for answers but this whole thing has gotten way outta hand lol. I want to play this game and have it be perfect just as much as them but I can't let it enrage me to the point where it affects my life.. Maybe I look at it differently but it seems like a silly waste of their energy. Like why not put fire, time and energy towards something actually going to help them advance in life or something. I guarantee they won't care so much that the servers are down at 7am eastern everyday when they are focused on something else for more than 30 seconds.

Couldnt have said it better myself. Though lets not forget that some of the people that complain about the complaining are just as bad. goes both ways. Obviously not implying this means you but yk what i mean

Say what you want, but things look much more stable.
What did they do to fix it? I don't really care. It's working. They certainly didn't sit around waiting to see if things got better on it's own.
Yes, I shouldn't be congratulating them for something that should have been working all along. There's something to be said though for the fact that they did work out some of these big issues with connectivity. Most of the grunt work being done by SDS folks that have never posted on the boards before.

YouTube guys typically "Home hunt" as well. That's another reason they put up splash pages between games while searching for an opponent.
