This event just isn't fun. Something I thought I'd never say about moonshot.

I have been doing God awful in this event so far. I can barely record an out. I know that's kind of the point, but I've never had that much trouble during moonshot events in the past. Meanwhile I can't hit for [censored], although I have no one to blame but myself on that. I keep swinging at junk out of the zone.
Nevermind. I just hit a moonshot with my common pitcher with 5 contact and 2 power. I must have rediscovered my swing lol.

It was more fun than I thought it would be but I’m not gonna play a lot of it
-
I love the event! My only issue is with the toxic morons that get even MORE toxic after hitting home runs. It's like, dude both our bullpens suck, remember?

One game ill score 10, the next ill score 0, the cycle rolls on. I can't find any consistency in events, in RS, anything. I'm jumping on the train of this games hitting being broken and wonky af.
Its just not fun, I feel like game in game out im just getting frustrated.
I’ve noticed the same thing too. It’s just either your turn to get bad inputted HR’s, or it’s your opponents turn. Some of the base hits are laughable too.
At this point it’s just about playing enough games to get to the 25 mins, no longer about playing well enough to get wins.

I have always hated the moonshot event, I don't think I have ever really played one past the first day. I see the appeal for sure just don't find it fun myself. Mini season grind here I come
-
Nobody likes giving up 3 home runs an inning or trying to pitch with common pitchers. I hate it.
-
My biggest issue is the game forcing my good/perfectly executed pitches outside the strike zone into the strike zone. And not only that, but at very hittable locations. We've seen this before in 18 and also in 20.

I was thinking the same thing. Everything just feels random. I was really looking forward to this.

Agree with everyone here. I’m powering thru to 30 just for the packs but this is not fun (and I generally love these events). SOOO many pop ups.
-
And then you have people laying down bunts in this event like it’s common pitchers swing the bat it’s crazy

Well they can't have good hitting and forced wins for noobs now can they?

Get more consistency from a 20 sided die lol

Online play has been loved by sh*tty players since ‘18. I really don’t know what veterans of this franchise were expecting, ‘20 showed us this game was gearing towards keeping bad players in the game. Once they put the “secondary pitch limit” in game, competitive play was a wrap for this series. “Sorry guys these clowns can’t stop swinging at curveballs in the dirt, so now if you throw two in a row we are just going to float it to the centre of the zone”.

Anyone would be a fool not to believe the gameplay isn’t designed for player retention….in a game with micro transactions.
EA is the king of it…SDS is catching on.

It’s a business, we either accept it and adapt or move on to something else. Me personally I just don’t play online anymore, no point. I went from playing close to 1100 RS games a release, to zero.

Are PARs bugged? I know they changed how perfect release works but I’ve noticed a number of perfect inputs that seem to not even be within the par, and certainly not where I wanted the pitch. On the flip side, bad input goes for consistent dots.

I have no idea bro all I know is that this issue along with the inability to strike people out is causing this game to be practically unenjoyable.

Moonshot should be fun but instead it’s a slog. Worst event I’ve played in a real long time. Last year the moonshot events were fun. Can’t believe I’m praising 21….

If this is the worst event you have played in a long time don't even bother with the next one. Even if they have a patch before then that makes this game 10/10 perfect, the next event is deadball lmao
