I love moments, and have actually been pretty happy with some of the rewards we earn. The logic, at times, is incredibly frustrating. I do not have a problem with tough challenges; 8 bases in 1 games, 2 XBH, 15 bases in x games etc. etc. -- but the logic is irritating. Needing to get a certain amount of hits and getting walked, needing to it home runs but your are going against Yu Darvish, who only throws ball.
The most frustrating experience I faced was the Dante Bichette -- 1 XBH 1 steal. I hit a homer run -- nailed the XBH. I then hit a single, I want to steal, but the batter is in a 3-2 count... they are swinging to protect, the AB ends with a walk. Hit another single, the batter is in an 0-2 count with 2 out -- the guy strikes out. W T F!?!?
You need to go into mode specific settings and change the length of cpu at bats to “entire at ball” or “all pitches” instead of action pitches or half of the at bat.
It's like someone just informed me that you can get bread pre-sliced. Thank you!
Ha! Yeah I have a bunch of friends on Xbox this year I’ve been trying to tell all about these little quirks in there. Someone told me about this one a couple years ago and it was mind blowing. Good luck!

Ooooooo that sucks. But until someone told me, I struggled too.

Wow...just wait till Moments Extreme comes out. You think you're bitching now........wait till you need 3 HRs in one game on Hall of Fame or 4 XBH in one game on HoF.......
-
Agree. The only thing worse than moments is conquest.
Not looking forward to extreme.
-
For the most part I enjoy most moments and look forward to them.. But I gotta say McGriff 7hits and 4xbh. That one is about to make me throw my controller. I was down to 1xbh left. So pissed.
-
I would give SDS money to be able to skip them without even having to try them once. Money money money money money
-
I totally forgot that there are people who do this for money, never mind SDS, I'll just pay them. Nanny nanny boo boo
-
The only thing they should change with moments is have them on HOF.
-
That's what gets me with these. They're supposed to be based on the real world events that took place. Well. Paul DeJong wouldn't have had 2 HRs with a Salami if Joe Ross was throwing a gem, so why is he throwing no hitters into the 8th in the Moment?

Agreed, if you fail say 5 times then you should be given the reward for persistence. Nobody gains from being so frustrated you turn off the game
Everyone gets a trophy? Screw that
Not everyone gets a trophy. Everyone should have the exact same odds when they play the Moments slot machine.
Moments is nothing more than software randomly animating baseball action with nearly no help from your controller. Typically, the very first time you play one, you get through it fairly easily. But everyone's encountered that Moment where the cherry's aren't popping on the slot machine.
I don't think it's fair that RNG makes the same Moment impossible to win a couple times through for one player, but easy-cheezy for another. But it does. Can't be denied.
Also believe there is some counter in most Moments that actually does increment and just hands out that win after a certain amount of times through.
Probably coded the best way the help thought they could code it.

I got stuck on a moment for an hour and a half go so frustrated that I started tallying. 60% of my contacts were good time while another 10 were perfect, but [censored] [censored] Luis Urias hit two measly dingers. [censored] hate these moments when they're on some cheese like this
