Online Gameplay is Soul-Sucking
-
Just played 4 straight event games that went into extra innings because no one can score.
80% of “good” contact is resulting in lazy fly balls.
There is no point in playing this game online right now. I wanted to go for some of the reward but playing online feels like you’re a hamster in a wheel - tons of effort but making 0 progress.
I could post the PCI screenshots etc, but we’ve all seen plenty of those and know how bad hitting is.
Thank god we get content on Friday so my offline XP can actually go towards something. I can’t blame anyone who wants to boycott online gameplay until there’s a patch. Otherwise you’re wasting your time w this slot machine / dead ball hitting system.
edit: 5th straight game went into extras. Took 6 innings but I finally won 1 of the 5 games. We need more line drives in this game. IDK why its so hard to implement.

Pretty sure screenshots aren't necessary at this point.
The online gameplay feels like its a competition to see who can play just bad enough to get good results.
The game reminds me of 19 (i think....whichever one really killed exit velo for good pci placement) seeing that good pci and good timing (or even wrong side of good) is a 90mph exit velo flyball with 40 degree launch angle......but fear not...I'll definitely rebound with an early, completely off the PCI rocket for a go-ahead hr in the top of the 9th.

I have 9 more wins in 2 days. If I don't get something good in these 25 and 30 win rewards I will be done with going over the actual reward card. Too much time for no rewards.

I’ve been at 22 wins for a couple hours now with my losing streak.
I want this stupid big dog pack and then I’m not touching online for a while.

Yea, I got all the big dog and packs after the Salmon card and got absolutely nothing. 3 base rounds in the big dog packs. Felt like an absolute waste of time. Just like this one will feel if it happens again and just like RS if you don't reach WS.

It's so garbage. Most of my games are low scoring dogfights where late swings and duck snorts are king. Squared up balls go nowhere. It's painful all around.

Last week, at least my early swings were ripped for doubles etc.
Today all the early's are foul, and anything else is lofted 400 ft straight into the air so even silver defenders can get under it in plenty of time.

I played 3 games, went 3-0, and I can't do it anymore lol. To hell with this base round dog packs.

Won my last event game
Gets counted as a friendly quit and I don’t get credited the win
That’s enough for today

Agreed. No one is forcing me to play it.
But there’s no other way to make stubs / nothing else to play. This is the worst thing about the new programs.
There’s no separate XP or TA path to keep rewarding players after the program is done.
I got and sold the 2 event players for about 45k total. I’d say it was worth it but let’s not act like there’s a plethora of options outside of the event to focus on.

Way I look at it is I would have to play about 25-26 event games to win 20 and earn both rewards based on my usual success. In this thing , that’s about 6-7 hours of playing something awful for 45k. I would play the mystery map and earn 50 packs and hope for luck, play mini seasons with the work around and likely earn that many or more, or just buy the stubs ( about $30).
I am not torturing myself for 45k stubs, my time has a value and this is supposed to be fun.
Heck, even in this awful
Market you can flip for 2 hours and make that much quite easily. -

The irony of me choosing to do what I please with my free time?
Sad that it bothers you so much that I played hours after a comment made earlier in the day
And if you think that’s a “tantrum”, again, no semblance of intelligence

Lol your definition of a “tantrum” is spot on, spot on
Didn’t claim I didn’t purchase the game. Admitted that I said I wouldn’t (multiple months ago) and here I am. I’ll spend my money how I please. You won’t see me here next year unless a 180 is made for online gameplay
Not sure what your problem is with me lol but I have no problem puting you in your place given how you provide hardly any intelligence feedback or comments on this forum
