Name a worse online game for casual players

Can’t this game is [censored]. The fact that you have to play at a level just because you’re barely good enough is a joke. And if you don’t want to play at hall of fame or higher you have to rank your record.

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
In response to the question in your thread title, The Last of Us Factions. Not for casuals, but a brilliant mode if you’re experienced enough.

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.
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
I wasn't trying to explain how a monitor works. Are you having a tough day pumpkin??? MS is milliseconds... there isn't anything technical about that.
As I expected another one who talks a good game but has no clue. As I told you before do some research before quoting random specs. 1ms to 4ms of what?? Response time?? Input lag??

Right?
Also, I’m 54 and play on a big TCL and I do just fine. I’m not worried about competing with uber meta players over 700, and you shouldn’t be either.
I think my tv in game mode is around 10 ms of input lag and you know what? Even with NO input lag at all, you still have to put the pci on the ball. Your monitor is not going to magically make your placement better.

10ms is very comparable with a lot of monitors and will serve you just fine

It has been good. I definitely have had to practice quite a lot. I think a lot of players believe a monitor will solve their hitting problems but for me, getting better input lag just helped with the timing.

Not true, I play on a TV and do very well online.
A normal TV is around 8ms...Do you play on a TV with a response time of 8ms and still play on World Series? If you do... my apologies, you are an extremely talented player.
I have no idea what it is, it’s a 2017 TCL 55 inch lol
It's probably a slow response time. It is essentially the delay from when you hit the button til when your TV reacts to it. That is very impressive.... I'm only a very casual player, but I was playing with a 8ms TV and just got a monitor last week for this game. With the TV I could not catch a 100mph fastball unless I pushed swing as the pitcher was releasing it... now I have zero timing issues. I wish they made a monitor that helped me place my PCI now.

I'm not a guru of monitors at all, but you must be pretty insecure of yourself to go out of your way to point out what I didn't mention or know in my post. Response time and input lag will both help your swing... but in my post I'm talking about response time... it is basically how fast your screen is changing frames and essentially giving you more time to react to a pitch. I love seeing guys who have such a sad life, that it makes them happy to insult strangers through a internet forum.... it's okay little buddy.... cheer up, it can't be that bad. Go outside and get some fresh air internet tough guy.

Black Ops 4 or any shooter game.
I didn't take the free PSN BO4, because it's online only and I'm awful at those games. -

It made a huge difference for me. I don't know jack about monitors and how screens operate... but I know when I upgraded my T.V. from a response time of 8ms to a monitor of 1ms... it made a HUGE difference in my hitting. I went from not being able to hit any 97+ fastball online to having to readjust my hitting, because when I got the monitor I was early on everything and took a while to slow down and adjust. What is it about my comment that is so clueless you had to chime in and point out that I don't know what I'm talking about. Every single video I've ever seen of people playing the game are using a monitor and seen literally hundreds of posts here over the last couple years of people saying how much better it is hitting with a monitor??? Are you saying there isn't a big difference in 1 ms and 4 or even 8 ms??? Are you saying a monitor does not help a casual player hit??? Since you are obviously an expert.... why not enlighten us instead of just being a [censored] about it? I was just trying to share my experience with a monitor versus TV to the casual playing OP. Maybe I just need a superior video game genius like yourself to actually explain what I'm clueless about.... wish I could play you using my 8ms TV and see you hit a 102mph Degrom fastball with it.

I’ve heard a lot of ppl say this, but I play on a 15 year old tv and do alright. I think internet speed plays a bigger factor.

Maybe your right.... but in my case upgrading to a monitor made a big difference for me. I can now play RS without striking out 15 times in a game. My internet is great and I still could not hit fastballs without guess and guessing makes you swing at ridiculous stuff. I could feel the difference as soon as I turned the game on in just navigating the menus.

This game is completely setup for casual players. Most are. That’s where the money is.
You can grind every card in the game for free if you suck and have lots of time. If you suck and don’t have time you can pull out your credit card. If you’re good you can grind more efficiently.

Man, I feel like slower internet is helpful. Every time I play someone with a bad connection I can’t catch up to pitches unless I’m deciding to swing before it’s thrown and completely guessing.
Next time you buy a tv do some research on rtings.com and get one with low input lag.

I bought a brand new benq monitor for last years game but realized I absolutely hated playing on it, missed the TV. I’m about 50 games over 500 in ranked, so I don’t think it’s really hurting me.

Funny you posted this. I bought a BenQ monitor this year to play better on it. But I miss my setup in the basement with the TV and music and an old love seat from the house I sold 10 years ago. Plus it’s a great way to hide from the wife and kids. Did you notice a huge difference going back or not really?

Madden by far! Online play is sooo toxic and unrealistic. At least MLB the Show will follow the fundamentals of baseball where as Madden is ruined by toxic players just blitzing non-stop, glitching lineman and jumping 10 feet in the air with a sub-lb, and throwing cover3 glitch plays. Can keep going and going but Madden is the most terrible online experience I have had.

I haven't played Madden since Ray Lewis was on the cover. Zero interest.
