Another scumbag trick I just encountered
-
I’m sure this isn’t new but it’s new to me. Playing an event game and my last opponent pulls this scummy move.
I pinch hit for my pitcher with Ortiz, he brings in lefty Britton and immediately pitches, like way fast as I was trying to hit start to bring in a righty bat. So I spam down to call time and hit up to try to change batter again. Nope as he was spamming up as well and got the timeout before me. So he must start spamming his next pitch because the split second he came out of time his pitcher immediately already had a pitch selected. Like just wow to be that scared to not allow a batter change. Silver lining I got a hit anyway.
You sir win the pathetic award of the day! With that and your high sinkers during a meaningless 3 inning event game shows me you obviously are a hoot at the dinner table. I thank you!
-
I find that I cannot call time or even go into quick menu sometimes online, so I just hit the options button and load the menu if I want to change out.
People take this game too f'ing seriously sometimes. If they have to resort to bush league moves like that, they deserve to lose the game.
-
Unfortunately, that is what online gaming comes down to so many times. Winning at all costs because exploits and nonsense are easier than getting better

I get you 100% but if it was “MEANINGLESS” then you wouldn’t have made this post. You went up against a
kid who can’t take losing, can’t let it get to you like that -
Whenever I run into people like this I just think "if you're proud of that win more power to ya, you need it more than I do". It's frustrating in the moment but at the end of the day you know you aren't stooping to those levels. I'd rather lose playing legit than win with some BS tactic

There are so many little things like that people pull during the course of a game. It’s really the only thing I don’t like about MLB. People are so petty….if you are in a tight game and your opponent has a big inning and pulls away more often than not they will circle your fly balls in the outfield, bunt dance…..etc.
Probably the slimiest thing I’ve encountered is when people let every cut scene play out and take ten seconds every pitch. They are just trying to make the experience as excruciating as possible hoping you will quit. The last dude I played that did this had a pride flag as his logo and his team name was the San Francisco G*ys.
I don’t quite understand the toxic mentality.

If you brought in David Ortiz he was doing you a favor. He is lucky you didnt go yard. He is probably the best L/L hitter in the game. I would rather Ortiz L/L than Chipper batting R vs a lefty. At least my numbers are better in that situation.

Stfu. Either provide constructive criticism or sod off. Another dbag to block on here.

I always give my opponent time to re-sub in this situation. It's pretty amazing how unbelievably unsportsmanlike some people are.
