    You can’t.

    This game is absolutely hideous online for anyone that isn’t a die hard, no job, goon.

    Not sure what the deal is but the game is rarely not laggy.

    Love my opponent stealing second and third constantly as my catcher double clutches the ball and won’t throw it.

    Hitting is ridiculously hard right now. Nobody throws anything that isn’t a sinker or slider on the black or outside of the zone.

    My opponents though all seem to be amazing at the game.They have 9-10 pitch at bats fouling off everything even stuff 6-8 inches out of the zone before eventually taking said pitch deep.

    I know I’m not great but I don’t think that changes the fact that this game just blows [censored] online for many reasons.

    Sincerely,

    Disappointed

    Baseball is a tough game for online. When you’re talking fractions of seconds for timing, it doesn’t translate well to an online game. It’s actually a lot better than I would think it would be though.

    If you are talking about newish players and true casuals, any online game is a nightmare. The ego and elite attitudes that go with video gaming is comical and pathetic. People love to beat down new players. Trash talking on things like call of duty and the overall shaming of skill is the same in all games. Just look what happens on this forum alone when someone new posts something and people pile on.

    Do you play on a normal T.V. ??? ... the truth about this game is that you need a monitor to compete online. If you are on a TV with 4ms, you will struggle No matter how good you are. The difference between 1 ms and 4 ms is huge.

    Ok, but doesn't that make sense? You aren't going to be as good your first year, it takes time. Would you rather have a game where you can just hop online and beat someone who has played a good bit longer then you because the game helped you out?

    The learning curve is definitely rough, but that's partly just how baseball is, it's hard to get around that

    We shouldn't eliminate skill gap for the sake of protecting the ego's of new players. This is coming from a 1st year player who's getting his [censored] whooped online. Does it feel bad getting smacked around? Of course it does. Will it make you a better player over time? Yes it will.

    Sorry, not going to happen. You were born about 15 years too late.

    I’m not saying I shouldn’t get beat up. It’s just not fun. Pitch speeds are ever changing, always lag online, and everyone can paint like Picasso so you rarely see anything actually enter the zone.

    Not saying the game doesn’t have perks. I enjoy offline. Collections. Conquest. Smacking the AI around. Opening packs. Etc.

    But online is one of the worst online games I’ve ever played. Unless you like low scoring games and strikeouts.

    Eh i disagree. As frustrating as it can be, at least it replicates the sport of baseball fairly accurately. It takes extreme skill to hit a baseball consistently. Compare that to 2K where any [censored] can score no matter how well you defend them

    1ms and 4ms of what?? I always laugh at guys like you throwing around terms they have no idea about. Get educated first before giving away that awesome technical advice. Lol

    Having played a while now, I can tell you the big advantage is already being familiar with certain players pitching animations that everyone tends to use. If you used Kershaw today against anyone who was semi decent two years ago, you would see him get lit up. If you tried to face him not having lots of experience, it will be very frustrating. Probably why Cabrera is so dominant, he is new.

    Madden. It takes way more work on MUT to field a decent team. You can literally have a team of all topps now, player of the month, and TA3 players and be good.
