SDS - Don't tell me these showdowns don't get more difficult when you are close to the TA player.

    Absolutely ridiculous. I haven't failed the AL Central yet but now that I am magically one win away from Santana, I can't even make it to the final showdown. Knew I was in trouble against Morris when I got 3 good/good to start the game with zero hits. Ended up with 8 good/good or better and got a whopping one hit. You let me know when I can get Santana now. Same [censored] happened against Snell and love the 5 failures I had getting Gallo even though I had not failed that showdown prior to that. Guess I just lost my touch. /s

    Hmmm.. One would think that if SDS had it 'in for them' nd was making then play extra Showdowns; that person would just invest the same amount of time (and less stubs) and just do that's team's MTO on All-Star.

    But hey, why do it the easy way. Probably because you cant blame the game.

    I have finished 7 showdown in 2 days...suddenly it turn out very easy. The problem is it take too much time.

    I love how every time you’re average player has a complaint, some elitist comes in swinging their di** and tells them they suck and it was easy for them. We get it you’re great at the game. For the other 90 that’s not in the 10% we just play to enjoy the game and collect cards. I hate how SDS seems to cater to that 10% rather than listening to the overwhelming majority of players...

    Then don’t play effing showdown then, there’s like 6 ways to get a team affinity player.

    Stop telling people what to do and just be quiet..Ok we get it you did it but others have struggled at it.So u did it faster and better.A lot of people are struggling with this..We can't all be good like you and the other top 5% but we would like to ask why does some of the game play seem to change when going for certain rewards.It may not seem that way to you because of your skill but to the avg guy really putting in the time and effort it may and yes I have often wonder myself.In 5 tries at the AL West I completed it twice my last try ended in a 15-15 tie and I had 5 outs left Verlander had no energy and thrown over 137 pitches but those fielders all of a sudden became Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays 2 diving catches 1 robbed HR so it's frustrating and to me it seems in the pressure moment the CPU becomes HOF or Legend in All-Star

    MTO takes way longer just depends on the person playing where they want to invest their time Showdown is a bit easier and less time consuming.I guess..

    Well, here is the deal for those that know everything. I have 7 of these TA players. The first 4 I went through and maybe failed once in 12 runs which was one I jumped to the end after already doing this twice. The last 4 I have gone after (the 3 that I don't have and the one I am going after now), I have failed like 12 times. I am not pressing. I am playing the same way I did the first 4 players with 1 fail. Something changed recently.

    I think it was too easy to get them and that is why you are seeing threads stating that people can't even get TA players this way. I have a team full of them but something changed recently in regards to difficulty.

    It’s actually fun, not that hard and you get your investment back by first mini-boss. But the AL Central is tougher, because it lacks great hitters, even the FotF cards are whimsy.

    It doesn’t change when you get close to rewards, you guys just want mindless easy grinds and showdown for some of you is not that, sorry

    I never said it did but it sure seems like it at times when it feels geared up in certain situations and all of a sudden the CPU just does amazing things all of a sudden that it wasn't doing earlier or maybe a time u played before.I could careless just get tired of those that can do it with ease that give people grief that can't do it as well or may not be as good at the game as others.If your not helping or giving tips just scroll past the comment no need to belittle or judge someone else because they're worse than you at the game..

    I’m not elite by any means, and I have zero problems with showdown.

    I play them all the way through every time, never skipping to the end because I like having as many runs as possible.

    I have 7 FotF cards almost exclusively by playing showdown, and they don’t change when you get closer to 50. What a dumb thing to even suggest.

    But Demise is a “great” player though, according to his words he would beat every player on these forums if it weren’t for “ping”

    Only idiots wouldn't think there is a difference between someone with fiber and someone on satellite.

    And I suck by the way. One of the worst players in Show history.

    It’s not a deflection it’s a joke. I’ve failed one showdown all year, the game doesn’t magically get harder when you’re close to unlocking a player. As always though you have another conspiracy theory as to how and why the game is trying to hold you back.

    Oh, I don't think the game is holding me back. There are flaws in this game but people like you can't see them. Because the game works great for you and you can be 30-1 doesn't mean it works for everyone.

    Can you honestly not see the fielding, pitching and hitting flaws in this game? Everyone has to deal with those because those are embedded in the game. Like I said, I call a spade a spade whether I am 100-0 or 0-100.
