I stopped reading after you mentioned the only online you’ve done is playing event games today.
Cause none of this stuff happens in any other gameplay? You really want to go that route?
I’m going the route of not bothering to read a wall of text titled “my annual assessment…” when it’s based on only handful of online games. Yes.
Not just a handful, a whole day of playing. I've been doing this assessment every year in the exact same fashion, and I have identified issues that were at some point in time generally accepted by the community as a whole each and every time. Sorry if I didn't meet your criteria.
Anytime.
Anytime? That's your response? Okay.
Breathe. You don’t need validation from everyone. It’s not personal. Everything you said may be true. I just don’t care to read it because I have the ability to think. You know, small sample sizes.
lol acts as if he's the resident expert on the game
In all fairness, I probably am. I'm willing to bet the house that I've been playing this game for a lot longer than most of the people on this forum and at a consistently higher level too.

@the_dragon1912 said in My annual assessment of this game:
I definitely agree with most of this, I'm just not feeling the MLB 18 comparison much at all. Fees like a mix of 19 and 20. Pitches not going where you placed them with good input was way more of a 20 problem than 18. Hitting feels like pre HR/9 patch 19 more than 18 by a longshot
I respectfully disagree with that statement, 18 was notorious for forcing offspeed pitches into the strike zone. There was even a gameplay mechanic that forced you to throw your primary pitch once every 3 pitches in order to prevent penalties.

Lol. See. This is entertaining. I will read posts like this all day.

Another thing that seriously irritated me is the amount of weak flyballs and even pop ups on swings where the ball is entirely in my buckshot, albeit in the top part of it. But that's what the game wants us to do, no? Lift the ball with power hitters? So that's what I'm aiming for and I get okay hits for weak pop ups. Again, this reminded me of MLBTS 18.
This is what irritates me the most. I am squaring up balls with good contact and the ball just hangs in the air. Why can’t it be a slapped single sometimes?

Ha. If you're not informed, just keep your mouth shut. I've been a borderline top 50 player for years and went flawless probably 100 times since MLBTS 17.

Anyway, I'm gonna stop with all this pettiness. I gave my opinion, that's all it is. If yours is different that's totally fine.

I don’t care if the guy has never lost a game. An anecdotal and hasty generalization should be disregarded, even when appeals to authority are made. Because, you know, logic.

Contact swings are back, check swings are back, forced meatballs are back… must be to help the new customers… lol @raesONE_PSN I posted about contact swings being OP last night, I noticed and tried to hide it within my post to try and not to spread it… timing windows are weird AF as well
-
Jeez!! A player decided to post his thoughts on the game so far and a couple people want to flame him for his opinions? Who cares if he hadnt been around forever, who cares if he never even made Championship series. It is his right and opinion to post how he feels, not how some people want him to feel.
Sure, disagree all you want, but at least bring up what you disagree with and debate it. Or better yet do your own little write up.
-
I don’t follow. RAES has been around forever and has played at the highest level. He has earned most people’s respect here….but I agree with your statement, everyone has the right to share their experience

Can’t find the “good” timing on pitches away at all. Seem like the hardest to time up for me.

You’re taking about the dude telling people to keep their mouths shut and saying not to mind the small sample size because he should be considered an expert, his post?
If I were to make a claim, based solely on his posts here, that too much of his self-worth is based on this game and that his fragile ego craves constant validation, that would have more evidence backing it up than his “annual assessment” does. But I won’t, because that’s not enough evidence to make such a claim. Nor would any expertise I may have in psychology increase the validity of such a claim.

Im talking about the original post. Anything after that looked like self defense to me.

Yeah, I'm new and even I know @raesONE_PSN is a Show legend. Last year alone he was at the top of the leader boards for nearly every event and then of course there was the famous post that caused WW3....keep on trucking
Raes.@Bob_Loblaw1984 stirs the pot because well...who knows. Sometimes he cracks me up, sometimes he makes me wanna listen to My Chemical Romance and cry in my journal....he too is entitled to his opinion.
Most importantly, and I can't stress this enough. How the (bleep) can I change my mother (bleepin) icon?
