Rage Quitting(impulsive rant)
-
I'm not going to pretend Iike I've never rage quit before. It happens. It's just a game and if you're not enjoying it, quitting is an option, albeit a cowardly one. It isn't often. I've taken twice as many 10 run rule losses, at the very least.
But it has gotten ridiculous. The only 9 inning games I play are the ones I'm losing(usually by alot) or the occasional anomalous comebacks in which everything goes the opponents way.
My record is 123-74. I can't hit nor pitch worth a [censored]. ANYONE can beat me at any time. But 95% of the time, if I go up by 3-5, it's over. We can all say stats(batting averages/ops,etc) aren't indicative of skill, but I'm willing to bet we all use these as initial gauges on the opponents skill level. And if you only play ranked it can get bad. Bringing out a team with all sub .300 averages hurts my [censored].
I say we collectively pressure SDS to do something about this. They won't because the horrible p2p and freeze-offs, but that's just being lazy.
Penalize rage quitting, by deducting points from ranked program would do the trick. Or show disconnect % during pregame lineup menu.
Tldr: get gud, etc(referring to my expected responses. By no means a taunt)

At least you can play. Switch users have been out of the game since last Wednesday.
-
Waah! People won't let me pad my stats against them! And to tell people to get gud at the same time is sad. When SDS finally starts punishing the cheesers, glitchers, laggers and people who use cheatware maybe they can get around to forcing people to get pounded non stop by a get gud bully.
"My record is 123-74. I can't hit nor pitch worth..." Humble brag noted.

I quit games, at any point, if my opponent becomes toxic. Winning or not, I do not care, it’s October and I refuse to deal with it any longer. So, technically I’m “Rage Quitting”
Why should I be penalized for excusing myself from a toxic situation politely?
-
It wouldn't solve the problem but giving us progress points for wins would make it less frustrating. Atleast we would get the progress .

If I play a guy that has all P5 cards like Acuña, Rutschman Elly pitching as Randy, all guys hitting over .400…I’m out immediately. I’m not trying to play that. I’m a 500 level player. I’ve played guys with the World Series icon as a 400. This game sucks towards the end of the year when all the non streaming non caffeine tweakers are gone. I quit, a lot.

that is completely fair mate i hear you there !!!

I only rage quit events. When the opponent hits a homer on a ball extremely hard to make good contact on. Events frustrates me more then any more.
I don't play BR because they charge stubs to play which is ridiculous.
I never rage quit Ranked anymore. I used to but now I try to get the game completed regardless what the score. I also haven't been beaten by more then 8 runs in 2 years. So either I've gotten better or SDS tweaked the game mode to be more competitive.

i hear you completely - i never Q in ranked, but events ill drop no problem
ranked i have been down once quite a bit and came back in the bottom of the 9th, only to lose in the 10th or 11th, but it was one of the best games ive ever played in the many years ive played
staying in the game in ranked makes all the difference imo

Rage quitting is the most annoying thing (ok, besides playing at shield woods). I would put the constant quitters who play ranked into a league of their own. Give them rank „quit“ and let them play each other till the end of the day … punishing them on points more drastically will only help their cause (leveling down to play „weaker“ opponents)

Not me , I take it as a challenge. I'll try my best , I will also use bull pen pitchers that I rarely use so my good bullpen has energy for the next game.
But I get it , you want to enjoy the game your way . It's all good. -

No. I'm objectively bad. I thought the record indicated that. The demons are the ones with 5 wins per loss.

The only way round it is proper punishment.
If you dashboard, 24hr online ban.
Or just simply make the games 3 innings minimum.
I understand some disconnects will
Be genuine so maybe a 3 strike rule.I honestly don’t care that much about people quitting as long as they let the ball land, press options and quit properly.
Dashboarding really triggers me. It’s a cowards way out.

Dashboarding really triggers me. It’s a cowards way out.That's the main thing that has to be fixed. Dashboarders need to actually face punishment. Cool down periods don't work as their bug riddled game punished people on co-op as much if not more than the dashboarders. Perhaps not only not giving them any post game rewards for the game they quit (if they went more than the 3 innings), but those rewards should go to the person who got ripped off.
Since they clearly don't care about anyone's online experience the only thing we as customers can do is stop paying them for a poor product, and in just the three years I have been playing this game it has gotten worse every single year.
They need to be hit in the pocketbook. HARD.

When you start paying for my copy of the game you can dictate how I play it.
When you start working my 50 hour workweek you can dictate how I spend my free time.

Get the new Randy Johnson. I started him 6 games in a row the opponent just quit lol. It is what it is at this point

True, but it works the other way also. Currently, dashboarders are dictating how others spend their time by preventing stats needed for a program.
Preventing a single homerun doesn't seem like a lot, but it adds up over time. Dashboarding is infectious and should be addressed, if possible. I like the "3 strike rule" that someone mentioned above.

I don't think they are all rage quits , because one time I was losing and my game kicked me out on its own , my opponent messaged me accusing me of rage quiting . I told him I didn't quit the game disconnected on its own.

Or, unless it's required, you complete stat based programs against the cpu.
