This is why i havent touched online this year. I'll continue the offline grind while other people waste their time earning (or trying to earn) cards that they're gonna sell anyway and i'll just buy them when the price drops.
Let me see if I understand this correctly. So you buy cards to beat the CPU on rookie? That doesn't sound like much fun. I need a competitive grind so online isn't that bad to me.
What "competitive grind"? Half of the people in here [censored] and moan about everything related to online. Freeze offs, bunt cheese, R2 spammers, lag, opponents [censored] poor PCI placement and the fact that they get homeruns on horrible swings while all your* perfect/perfect are lineouts at the track, superman dives, progress/innings not counting for programs....and the list goes on and on.
What's "competitive" about crying over every aspect of online? I guess sitting in a freeze off for 2 days would be considered "competitive" but I'll play my game, thanks lol
You are talking about the 1 percent of the community that actually knows this forum exists. On top of that you will never hear about the people that actually enjoy this game because they have no reason to complain.
Also, no where in your ridiculous rant did you answer my question. Why would you spend stubs on Diamonds to paly the computer on rookie? Ahh, I get it now its because you are considered food to your opponents online. You would prefer to have a false sense of accomplishment by beating the Orioles on the lowest difficulty possible instead of testing your skills against a capable opponent. I fully understand now.
And this is why he, and many others, stay away from online play. People like you that think the ONLY way to play this game is to play other people online so they can float about a fictitious batting average and ERA.
You like playing against other players. He, and others, like playing against the CPU.
Neither way is wrong. It's all preference.
Good point!
All I was trying to do is understand why one would put time and energy into such a brain numbing grind. What's the purpose? You would have a good enough team to compete with the CPU on day one of release. Maybe there is something I'm missing by playing online exclusively.
There is alot you are missing actually! Your assumption is what sticks out the most! You assume everyone play Orioles for one, then you assume everyone who plays offline plays on rookie.
When you set your settings to Competitive the CPU plays completely different than years past. AI has been improved upon in numerous ways. Making the experience the funnest it's been in at least 5-7 years.
So the point is people want to play competitive baseball without the BS that plagues Online h2h gameplay. SDS has accomplished that and I am very thankfull for one.
"Online h2h Only" type players are a majority of the reason the game never gets better. Due to the fact b/c they can never agree as to what makes mode better. Instead every year people find a new way to cheese, then it gets showed on a stream or you tube video and next thing you know everyones trying to do it.
I just don't see the point of grinding for the best players and not taking them online to see how they can hold up to a 102 MPH outlier FB.
102mph outlier fastballs exist offline too. You do realize this, right?

Umm, 7-10 total for the day. You are right I'm stupid.
Anything to dry your tears at this point. Luckily Rookie ball has no timer so you can continue to bless us with your earthshattering comments while you ground out against the D backs offline.

Because lots of people like baseball and video games at the same time. And lots of those people don't like the frustration or plain "vibe" that accompanies online comp. I'm about 50/50, but I would never have touched DD if SDS hadn't abandoned franchise mode.

I think it's a very pompous attitude to make a statement in the manor in which you did that suggested: "everyone who plays offline basically sucks at the game and has no say." That is essentially what you are saying.
Sarcasm does not come across well online so I apologize for that. I just got trigger at that guys response. I am not assuming everyone plays on rookie I was just being sarcastic. I just don't see the point of grinding for the best players and not taking them online to see how they can hold up to a 102 MPH outlier FB. I enjoy trying out new swings online to see if they are worthy of a spot on the squad. The new Prime Spinger is an example. Grinding BR and taking him to RS to see how he holds up is the fun I get out of this game.
So your saying competitive mode is a setting like legend and HOF?
No competitive setting is the same as online h2h setting. The difficulty setting comes with 5 different settings that is chosen when you select team.
Playing Mini Seasons on Competitive and AS and above difficulty will give you same experience as online. B/c the teams you play are from the leaderboard and each team and team owner have thier own unique tendencies. But as the other poster explained the experience is without the online bs antics. Will be even better when they make it 9 innings. Or bring back the option to play any team on the leaderboard in a 9 inning exibition game.
Majority of people that play DD would love to play h2h, but unfortunately until it is in a more stable state, people are going to stay away until it gets back to a state where people are forced to play legitimate baseball.

I guess I'm different because those "antics" just make me want to win more and I focus up and play better all together. I guess I enjoy a challenge and welcome the obstacles. This is has always been my approach and a stupid video game seems to be no different. Thanks for the reply.

This is why i havent touched online this year. I'll continue the offline grind while other people waste their time earning (or trying to earn) cards that they're gonna sell anyway and i'll just buy them when the price drops.
Let me see if I understand this correctly. So you buy cards to beat the CPU on rookie? That doesn't sound like much fun. I need a competitive grind so online isn't that bad to me.
What "competitive grind"? Half of the people in here [censored] and moan about everything related to online. Freeze offs, bunt cheese, R2 spammers, lag, opponents [censored] poor PCI placement and the fact that they get homeruns on horrible swings while all your* perfect/perfect are lineouts at the track, superman dives, progress/innings not counting for programs....and the list goes on and on.
What's "competitive" about crying over every aspect of online? I guess sitting in a freeze off for 2 days would be considered "competitive" but I'll play my game, thanks lol
You are talking about the 1 percent of the community that actually knows this forum exists. On top of that you will never hear about the people that actually enjoy this game because they have no reason to complain.
Also, no where in your ridiculous rant did you answer my question. Why would you spend stubs on Diamonds to paly the computer on rookie? Ahh, I get it now its because you are considered food to your opponents online. You would prefer to have a false sense of accomplishment by beating the Orioles on the lowest difficulty possible instead of testing your skills against a capable opponent. I fully understand now.
And this is why he, and many others, stay away from online play. People like you that think the ONLY way to play this game is to play other people online so they can float about a fictitious batting average and ERA.
You like playing against other players. He, and others, like playing against the CPU.
Neither way is wrong. It's all preference.
Good point!
All I was trying to do is understand why one would put time and energy into such a brain numbing grind. What's the purpose? You would have a good enough team to compete with the CPU on day one of release. Maybe there is something I'm missing by playing online exclusively.
There is alot you are missing actually! Your assumption is what sticks out the most! You assume everyone play Orioles for one, then you assume everyone who plays offline plays on rookie.
When you set your settings to Competitive the CPU plays completely different than years past. AI has been improved upon in numerous ways. Making the experience the funnest it's been in at least 5-7 years.
So the point is people want to play competitive baseball without the BS that plagues Online h2h gameplay. SDS has accomplished that and I am very thankfull for one.
"Online h2h Only" type players are a majority of the reason the game never gets better. Due to the fact b/c they can never agree as to what makes mode better. Instead every year people find a new way to cheese, then it gets showed on a stream or you tube video and next thing you know everyones trying to do it.
I think it's a very pompous attitude to make a statement in the manor in which you did that suggested: "everyone who plays offline basically sucks at the game and has no say." That is essentially what you are saying.
Sarcasm does not come across well online so I apologize for that. I just got trigger at that guys response. I am not assuming everyone plays on rookie I was just being sarcastic. I just don't see the point of grinding for the best players and not taking them online to see how they can hold up to a 102 MPH outlier FB. I enjoy trying out new swings online to see if they are worthy of a spot on the squad. The new Prime Spinger is an example. Grinding BR and taking him to RS to see how he holds up is the fun I get out of this game.
So your saying competitive mode is a setting like legend and HOF?
No competitive setting is the same as online h2h setting. The difficulty setting comes with 5 different settings that is chosen when you select team.
Playing Mini Seasons on Competitive and AS and above difficulty will give you same experience as online. B/c the teams you play are from the leaderboard and each team and team owner have thier own unique tendencies. But as the other poster explained the experience is without the online bs antics. Will be even better when they make it 9 innings. Or bring back the option to play any team on the leaderboard in a 9 inning exibition game.

Well offline has challenges and obstacles as well. But i can see you are trolling at this point and look down your nose at offline players. And if it is just a "stupid video game" then why such a big fuss to find out why people play offline? It's pretty obvious what your intentions are at this point so i will say have nice day and end this conversation.

Ok! I always give people benefit of the doubt when having convo's on here until it becomes a habit. I would suggest in future if wanting to truly receive info. from here then when someone gives you a thought out response to your question, treat it as a learning tool. Not an oppurtunity to try to humiliate anyone. Since these convo's are held virtual there are no "Biggest Roosters in the room" so to speak.

You actually do need a decent team for mini seasons. The teams are getting better and better. Better than most RS opponents I face. I’m pretty split 50/50 for online/offline but lately I’ve just been playing to wind down after a long day so I don’t really want to fully commit to playing a H2H game because I don’t have the attention span and my brain is usually fried after a long day working in an ER.
The reasons people play offline now are pretty much the same reasons they played offline before. To just play a video game/get their baseball fix. You can make the CPU as challenging as you want. When I play RTTS my settings are usually much harder than even an online game playing on Legend.

Yeah, I played mini seasons for the first time last night. I tried it on HOF then on Legend. Honestly it was fun and made me a savage for RS on HOF. Mini seasons is a good warm up and also I'll prob be grinding if the rewards are worth it. Thanks!
