This game is dead the casuals have left

Not dead by any stretch...but maybe casuals just aren't into getting their $#it pounded in day in and day out anymore?
It's the #1 reason I avoid online play, I'm nowhere near good enough and I still want to enjoy this game
-
@AdeptOfMemory thank you Karen
-
I've always been under the impression that most casuals don't even play online.

Don’t fret bro, you posted a perfectly reasonable response but the OP wasn’t having it. He’s the type who pours hot coffee on a three legged puppy. Don’t waste any more seconds on this guy.
That @arvcpa_MLBTS sounds like a great guy. A class-act all the way.

I can't even move the slider when entering RS before getting matched up; 75% of the time it's instantaneous, the other 25% less than 10 seconds; in 400-500 (yeah I suck but still having fun).
-
So, let me get this straight...keep online for the competitive folk and the offline for the casuals...but then cry cause online is too competitive? What a world we live in. LOL
-
@VioletNine9 it takes me about 1 second to find a match online. This game is far from dead.
-
@GixxerRyder750 I think there can be middle ground though, no? Like I want there to be competition but I don't want a game to be a 9 round homerun derby foul balls bananza.
He may not be wording his frustrations the best but it would disingenuous to pretend we don't understand what he's feeling. -

Did your girlfriend cheat on you or just dump you? It’s all good man. Go read a book or something.
Ah, amateur therapy hour in The Show forums again. A guy trolling an upset gamer on a game forum, telling him to "go read a book." With the obligatory man/bro/brotha thrown in for even more condescension.
You can't make this [censored] up.

@Loyal-Wiglaf Since they have about as many solutions to offer as SDS devs do that's about the best response you'll see from them. Insults and deflection from the games problems instead of actual opinions or thoughts on fixing the game.

Hey now, you've insulted me when all I ever did was try to help, the double standard is unfair!
-
@chucky97___ you probably deserved it
I also love giving solutions to SDS. They just don't want them.

No, you just need to hop off that high horse you rode into town on. I've seen people like you on the forum before, talk all tough, throw shade at people, whine, complain and never game the game its praise. I got news for you, the world does not revolve around you, if you are going to spew out non sense non stop online you are going to open the door for people to say things back, don't play bully then turn into a victim when others fire back and use the "sds truthers" reply. This forum is a place to learn, not constantly insult others and the game There is a way to go about feedback, and what you are doing my friend is not it.
-
@chucky97___ cool story, bro.
-
So I played about 10 more event games last night the worst player I ran into was 60-32 the game is dead I have see no casuals in weeks. I don’t accept the idea that it’s just bad luck like the crappy hitting that will reward late and early swings with moon beams but good pci/timing are outs. If it’s consistent it’s not bad luck.

How ironic. A few of us tried to give you some help in fixing your internet connection problems and you threw a temper tantrum and started hurling insults instead. Might be time to take a look in the mirror. (I'm sure you'll now respond to this with more insults).
-
@VioletNine9 that’s because “casuals” don’t play events. “Casuals” finish programs like BR and Ranked, the move on to other things until the next program, or play Co-op. They don’t play two week old events.
-
@Pergo omg....you are that special. Please tell me how to fix my 1GB fiber connection with 967 download 700 upload, 35 ms, port forwarding QOS enabled, bandwidth priority and optimization settings on an Asus AX 5700, hardlined connection, with ZERO packet loss to bread crumb my issues.
If I'm not mistaken you didint do [censored] to help me or tell me. Which is fine because there is nothing you can do unless you're an SDS dev.
SDS servers are run out of a crack dealers van on the corners of Los Santos. It's not my Internet but nice try. -
@Pergo oh and my PS5 and Xbox are both Mac prioritized on my router as well as IP bound.
ZERO, I repeat, ZERO disconnections from ANY other servers. I could reach a man in the basement of Singapore jungles on a Commodore with less issues than SDS servers. You. Don't. Know. A. Thing. You. Are. Talking. About. -

There's probably a lot of truth to this. In previous years, though, Events was much more mixed. Disclaimer: I haven't played Events at all this year, just going off of what people are reporting.
