Dashboarding HAS to GO
-
Dashboarding sucked that year they had the prestige cards and you had to hit 75 online home runs with Mike Trout or whatever it was and people would literally dashboard every single time you hit one. With PXP I could care less , Ill earn that 40 pxp the next game when I strike out 5 times getting my rear handed to me by some goon

But what would be wrong if they could just figure out how to let the play finish before the disconnect ended the game?
I don’t think they can- obviously is a perfect world that would be the ideal solution
I think if they could code it it would’ve been done already
But I def know they can get implement penalties for quits/disconnects/dashboards since it’s already in co-op
That needs to be carried over to single h2h online play- all modes(Br, events, ranked even casual lol)
They can't implement a cool down penalty until they address freeze offs. Also, if you're that concerned about stats counting for mission completion; then complete missions by playing 'offline' modes. Unless you're referring to BR Missions.
No I don’t want to play “offline”
And you literally get more points by completing missions online
And the freeze off thing means nothing
The mode that has the most freeze offs is co-op and they have a cool down penalty in that mode
I’ve played about 40 ranked games this year and none of them ended in a freeze off
My friend and I played co-op ranked two weeks ago and 2 out of the 3 games were freeze offs
Then you take the chance of someone dashboarding. Not saying it's right just saying that if you want to play online, to get the extra points, then you take that gamble of someone dashboarding.
The reason they implemented a cool down penalty for Co-Op is because last year, when someone quit, the whole game ended.
They shot themselves in the foot with it because it caused issues with Co-Op Games that froze.
Imagine playing a Ranked or BR game, where it freezes, and the only way to unfreeze it is to quit. But whomever gets gets a cool down penalty. You would have freeze offs that could last weeks.

It’s totally unfair and needs to addressed 100%
So isn't the hanging pitch that was aimed in the dirt, that hung, which allowed you to hit said HR. I'm not dashboarding you, I'm dashboarding the POS game. Sorry if the HR doesn't count.
That's another one of the reasons I rarely play online...I joined a league two years ago, and only played two games. One I finished when I got blown out of the water by hanging pitches...which at first I thought I didnt aim anywhere near where they ended up, but ultimately attributed to my own stupidity...the second I quit because I threw a perfect release curve down and away to a lefty, they somehow pulled for a no doubter. I screenshot it, sent it to my opponent and asked him to screenshot his...sure enough, his was a bp meatball, while mine showed the pitch down and away. I haven't played online since.

The dashboarding on HRs has to be penalized next year… it’s gotten ridiculous at this point
Idk if it’s because it’s the end of the year but the last two days has been nothing but people quitting and deleting homeruns
It’s totally unfair and needs to addressed 100% especially since the game relays on pxp missions to complete programs
This is honestly one of the main things that needs to be addressed next year… you made a penalty for people that quit co-op games
Make a penalty for people that dashboard… if their internet sucks and that’s why they get disconnected well so be it
if you play me, please dashboard more. Especially in events, saves me time! Lol like it is 2023 and october and people still get upset they lose their virtual home run. You are getting a free win. Take and move on.

Thanks for this information. I have had many games where this has happened to me and wonder now if all pitching online is scripted. I had a guy yesterday where my pitches were aimed way outside and he chased badly on pitches that looked obviously easy to take, yet he fished for it multiple times. Perhaps they looked like they were going in the zone on his end.

If I quit I’ll just quit like a normal adult- I don’t need to rush and frantically close the app bc I’m scared to get a homerun hit on me
What’s funny about your post is if I dashboarded that would be more time for me- I’d have to restart the game etc etc
If I just quit like a normal adult I can hop right back into a game if I wanted to play another
But do you buddy
-
@aware_ward13 "I'll quit like a normal adult" were adults playing a kids game lol, There is nothing tough about quitting, quitting is quitting, is it annoying sure, but lets not act like you have some moral back bone because you never dash board.
-
I hardly ever play online. A few times this year for program stat missions. I never rage quit on it though and I should. I completely suck. Lost every game I’ve played online and some bad. I’d rather lose 100-0 than be a [censored] and leave.
My biggest issue though is the freezing people do. Played a game where at one point he brought in a reliever in the second. Inning off a nine inning game and when he pitched the ball ended up coming out of the opposite hand he was throwing with. After a few of these throws, my hitter could only hit the bunt button, nothing else and my screen was frozen and the only thing that worked was closing the game. I really don’t agree with the punishment of waiting a while after you quit, seems to benefit cheaters of the game
-
I could never dashboard. I cannot even quit. My ego cant take it. I am not gonna give you the joy of making me dashboard.

@chucky97___
Lol this is such a cop out
Are irl athletes adults playing “a kid game”? Sure
They’re still expected to act like adults - keyword expected.
There’s just really no excuse that you can come up with(and trust me you’ve tried)… it really doesn’t save time, it’s not bc you’re mad pinpoint messed up and you want to punish sds lol
You’re mad someone hits a HR and/or is beating you so you rage quit and delete the HR bc that makes you feel better lol… that’s the bottom line
Again like I said, that couldn’t be me.
Why would I care if you hit a HR off me and get credit for it in a “kids game” as you like to call it.
And honestly I’d bet money that more adults play this video game than little kids tbh- especially ranked and online modes
What’s really surprising about this thread is how many of you guys actually support this behavior of deleting HRs bc you’re angry. It’s quite comical lol
No wonder it happens so much in this game… I had it happen to me multiple times in casual games this week. A casual game which doesn’t count towards records and ppl still dashboard HRs smh
Like I said the purpose of this thread is to mention that there should be a penalty for dashboarding/quitting just like there is in co-op

Definitely no real way to combat Dashboarding because there are multiple different reasons that it can occur... yes the intentional dashboard is a pain but power outages, internet outages, and pets that lack social awareness (cats in particular) can cause such a thing to happen... I had an incident on Tuesday when attempting to play the first Spider-Man as I was trying to play through that and the DLC and then hopefully Miles Morales before Spider-Man 2 and as I'm recording with my Elgato, "my" cat (cause she's not really my cat, but she's at my house for an undetermined amount of time) decided to jump onto the desk and stand and move about on my laptop with zero f's given and ended up loosing my usb connection which led to the picture going out on the game and not only that she caused the external hard drive to not be connected so the Elgato was no longer capturing footage... I don't like isolating her but in that moment I had no choice...
TLDR... there are multiple reasons a player can lose their connection... and yes there is no defense for the "rage quit" via dashboarding... sometimes people lose their composure... is it an excuse... no but it's human emotion... I find myself playing less H2H because I had a real bad case of this a few The Shows ago and try to make it a point to only play H2H when I'm in the right mind frame to withstand anything that could set me off.. there's nothing worse than having a great game against your opponent and you tell yourself "no matter how this ends I'll send my opponent a GG" only for them to start bunt-dancing and doing all sorts of other tactics to ruin the experience taking you to a place where it's just like "F this" if they do ultimately get the better of you.
I don't know, maybe it's just me.
-
That’s bs. Everyone knows the rage quitter on home runs. There’s no outage that second. Get real

I despise "dashboarding". While I have quit several times over the years, I have only "dashboarded" once (it was between innings, in a 0-0 game, that was suffering a great deal of lag/latency). There may be other acceptable reasons for user initiated dashboarding, but not when it prevents stats from being registered (regardless of how cheesy and unethical your opponent is).
Nevertheless...
“Be more concerned with your character than with your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.” - John Wooden
-
@xElRojo44x
And what you did wasn’t necessarily dashboarding
You quit a game due to lag and you quit between innings… there’s nothing wrong with that
I’m specifically speaking about people that frantically quit the game once a HR is hit against them in order to take away the stats/pxp of their opponent
-
@aware_ward13 the only penalty that dashboardinf should have is in BR where BR program points matter significantly more. Ranked would be too tough to crack down on being there would be such a high number per today also it being 9 innings, BR would definitely increase the significance of punishment, spending 1500 stubs to play a mode should result in a punishment, but other then that if i'm playing ranked and someone dashboards a homer,its fine by me, I get a free win, my pen stays rested its all good. I dont care about virtual stats that mean nothing.
-
People dashboarding HRs in a moonshot event is also absolutely comical lol

@aware_ward13
That is truly comical.
