for ruining, and not caring, about online play.
Played some Event games today, on this and my other account, and 9 out of 10 of my opponents abused the Captain glitch.
Whether they subbed out their Captain, or did it the other way, they not only got a free win from me; they also got reported.
Not that anything will happen to them anyway; as the one person, who's a top player and streamer, whom showed the masses how to do the one glitch is still playing.
If you're not going to patch it; at least do what you all stated you would do and start dropping the ban hammer.
There is no glitch subbing out the captain … I did not know about that 6th inning thing until I read it here. They did not implement it …
I am with you tho on the „Captain glitch, no captain is on the team“-thing

Yeah, @fubar2k7, I’d appreciate it if you’d stop coming at us with reasonable alternatives and asking us to question our initial reactions when we’re clearly trying very hard to be angry at the game. No one needs your consideration of elapsed time and stated intention—or your reading of update notes, for that matter—because we all know that visual glitches aren’t real and that any abnormality we see is indicative of a clandestine effort to keep us from winning games against lesser opponents.
There is no chance that I’m wrong about any of this, so please just stop with your questions and don’t expect me to believe that someone wouldn’t be working 24/7 and able to immediately address the few and reasonable suggestions that come out of this forum. Anything less is just more proof that this game is out to get us.

@The_Joneser_PSN See I don’t have anything on the screen indicating player ratings. Last time I played online it went so quick I had zero idea what my opponents individual ratings in each and every single category was. I asked a question of how they know these captains abilities exists and instead of an actual answer the “gen z” crowd says because they said so. Well they also said they fixed it. Then they said they didn’t fix it they only fixed this. I’m genuinely curious how you legitimately know the players have the captain ability? Did you use it yourself and do your players have the inflated ratings once you pulled the captain?
-
@fubar2k7 - I was actually just trying to be cheeky… Your post seemed the most reasonable to me, as in how can people know with any certainty if the glitch was just something akin to a display error when the root was actually fixed (like, I swear that guy hits like he has 125 contact because he sucks with 119), or if it was truly left alone (and, even then, not a big deal in the scheme of things)?
I was just in a mood, and I guess my attempt at sarcastic humor failed
. That wasn’t meant to be a dig at you; I actually thought it was refreshing to see some tempered consideration of the situation. -
@The_Joneser You are fine. I only tagged you because I liked what you said. It was very cheeky. Seems like the only one who gets it. The questions are for the others in the thread.

When almost every card has maxed stats, the captain boosts are almost overkill. But yeah, whatever. I don’t mind captain, boosts. I won’t play Shield Woods though
-
@Dookie-Possum_XBL I just look at Shield Woods and don’t wanna even play there.

Hey, what do you know. ANOTHER top streamer posted a video the other day abusing the Rollins Captaim card. Unbelievable.
-
With the captain boost can attributes play in excess of 125 or do they simply cap out at that point? Ultimately if they want people to use captains, the boosts need to be better and the captains themselves need to be 99 rated core cards. By doing this people would actually let the captain play and core cards would be eligible the entire game cycle.

Um. I don't know if I would call him a top streamer. When guys like YourfriendKyle, Littlemann17 and Kevingohd have 275K plus subscribers I don't think a guy with 3K subscribers (only 1% of the big guys) can be labeled as a "top streamer".
Granted he, probably should be banned for showing an exploit but I doubt that the 4,000 people who watched that video are flooding the servers.

On an unrelated but related subject Core cards. Any card you take the time to P5 should become a Core card.

I concur

@fubar2k7
Agreed. Assuming they actually gave us a chance to parallel cards. Last year I paralleled a lot. This year, not so much.
-
@fubar2k7 I like that idea
-
Sorry buddy there are no more updates.. either deal with it or just move on.. that's the only way to look at it.. i would rather have this problem over the 2 way pitcher glitch.. If you can't beat them.. just join them..

You know, one would think since we had a representative of the company to pop into the forum to threaten the ban that this would FORCE them into action. I only say this because now that cbrev has thrown down the gauntlet (so to speak) that would essentially divide this group into two: the ones who benefit from this exploit and use the advantage towards winning, and those who try to do right by the rules that are in place. Wouldn’t this put this second group at a clear disadvantage? Sure seems like it.
Seems like an awful lot like the Roid Race back in the late 90's early 2000's. If the other players are doing it to get an advantage and get massive new contracts...others in the league began to follow suit because how else can you compete with cheaters if you don't cheat yourself?

But then there would be no incentive to P5 the other 4 overall 99 Schwarber cards.

I’m just glad the glitch isn’t happening with the captains that add a ton of power. But I’m not winning or losing any different from playing the glitches.
-
Just played someone in an Event game who used the Ripken Captain glitch.
Looked at his game history and see he has done it for at least, I stopped counting, the last 25 games.
Starts him as the DH. Bats him first. And EVERY SINGLE GAME he swaps him out.
Glad to see SDS is handling it.
Depending on today's content, and how much offline content is available, and since online is unplayable (in my opinion); I may be done for the year.
And if they bring back Captains for 24, and dont fix this glitch, I'm not playing next year.
