    @H-TOWN713-X1HQX_XBL said in SDS thinks it's funny rigging conquest:

    I’m with OP on this I noticed way too many perfect perfect hits or just hits on General not being home runs. I legit have only 20-30 home runs combined playing the cpu so far and that’s with 30+ games played. Conquest, mini seasons etc.

    And same as OP I play on varsity and have lost occasionally. I know I suck lol

    Were the perfect/perfect hits that were not home runs actual hits or fly outs and line-outs?
    Just curious because I have noticed more balls I hit thinking they were home runs hit the wall or something like that. Of course I had my share of p/p outs, but that’s expected.

    Do yourself a favour and play at least Allstar. It plays way better and easier than veteran.
    I went extra innings too many times and get too random outcomes on veteran.
    On Allstar i put up 3+ runs consistently.

    Yes. Definitely rigged. It's VERY difficult!

    Why try to
    make the grind more annoying than it is

    I'll take that over hitting into 3 DPs in a row. Eventually won the thing, but it took 5 innings that I'll never get back.

    They did. Not every player makes World Series.

    Use directional on lower difficulties.

    I’m not the one struggling, but thanks for the advice.

    I've had zero issue on veteran in conquest. I've finished East, West and WBC maps and every game is a blowout. Mini Seasons is a different story though. Even on Rookie I'll give up at least 5 runs a game.

    I think I lost one game early on on veteran on conquest. It does seem sometimes like the CPU tries to design losing outcomes. If you lose it's 10 minutes punted plus you get the XP still, not a huge deal as it's very rare. All that said, it doesn't seem like SDS has implemented the RNG thing yet where some really good contact doesn't go as far as it should because hitting stats were too high. It was very clear when they implemented it last year, late april i think. point being, CPU still throws a ton of middle-middle pitches that are mashable so if i don't score a couple in the first i tend to take a couple pitches in the 2nd inning as to not risk trying to be too quick getting the game done and losing to a scripted HR.

    I’m finding that I have better hitting results on all star and above.

    Yes.
    While Zone is definately more rewarding online h2h, I was stuggling to hit 1 home run in a WBC moment. ...So, I then switched to directional (with directional arrow up) and got it on my 2nd swing. Weird.

    I just checked I am 22-4 on veteran conquest games this year. several of those losses came early as I was getting used to the timing. Now, If I had gone 26 and 0 I would probably bump the difficulty up.

    And just as a reference, this is my perfect perfect history according to my game logs for the games I played in the NL Central Affinity Map. This is for those who swear the game is programed for them to fail on perfect/perfect swings.

    👍 Sosa: 102 mph (Sosa homered to left (410 feet). 1 RBI)
    👍 Contreras: 111 mph (Contreras grounded to left for a single. )
    👎 Arenado: 105 mph (Arenado lined out to 3B (L5). )
    👍 Contreras: 109 mph (Contreras lined to left for a single. )
    👍 O'Neill: 112 mph (O'Neill grounded to center for a single. 1 RBI)
    👍 Arenado: 111 mph (Arenado grounded to left for a single. )
    👍 Goldschmidt: 106 mph (Goldschmidt lined to center for a single. 2 RBI)
    👍 O'Neill: 107 mph (O'Neill homered to left (380 feet). 1 RBI)
    👍 Sosa: 106 mph (Sosa grounded to left for a single. )
    👍 Contreras: 106 mph (Contreras lined to center for a single. 1 RBI)
    👍 Contreras: 108 mph (Contreras lined to left for a single. )
    👍 Arenado: 106 mph (Arenado homered to center (425 feet). 1 RBI)
    👍 Sosa: 109 mph (Sosa homered to left (442 feet). 2 RBI)
    👍 O'Neill: 107 mph (O'Neill lined to center for a single. )
    👍 O'Neill: 109 mph (O'Neill lined to left for a single. 1 RBI)
    👍 Goldschmidt: 110 mph (Goldschmidt grounded to left for a single. )
    👍 Edman: 106 mph (Edman lined to center for a single. )

    I noticed that flyballs with exit velo of 95-102 don't always leave the park on veteran/rookie, etc. Perfect/perfect can be a linedrive or groundballl depending on pitch location and swing plan but on flyball with high exit velocity it doesn;t make a lot of sense

    @Xfoufoufou_PSN said in SDS thinks it's funny rigging conquest:

    You hit 7-8 balls at 95-110 mph for outs then you lose to the CPU on Veteran on a solo shot

    makes sense !

    Whoever thought of that algorithm .. Eat dirt !
    Why try to
    make the grind more annoying than it is

    yeah, i've been getting into 3 innings into extra innings with singles on anything lower than all star, i played on all star and put up 3-4 runs each time, just play on all-star and spend your time actually doing good instead of hitting balls on the ground on vet and rookie lol
