    Please no. I hate pretty much every other sports game because it over complicates what should be simple. I'm not sure how they could make defense need 'more skill' without it turning into that. I think skill does matter enough already.

    foul balls
    the exit velo. Hey home runs are cool, but hitting a 500ft homer with Joe Torre at Fenway shouldnt happen. I've hit more 500ft homers this year then all my other years combined. Homers draw players in especially players who arent very good
    Fix Co-Op My son and i have tried to play out of the maybe 30 games we've tried playing we've played 2 whole games. otherwise its freeze offs. Its a joke.

    finally Season, there has to be a way to get back to the inning programs. Having the same recycled cards over and over again gets boring.

    1- Foul Balls- In a grind game vs the CPU I'm a bit more tolerant of them, but in Mini Seasons it ruins my entire game plan because guaranteed it happens batter #1.

    2- Outfields not being scaled properly. outfielders getting to balls they have zero business getting to. When I'm watching guys like Kyle Schwarber turn into Trea Turner out in LF to get to a liner. In general as well the ball hangs in the air WAY too long

    3- Results of hits don't seem to be matching the contact/sound. This isn't me saying that P/P should be hits 100%. I'm just seeing no doubters off contact that sounds like a rolled over chopper to second.

    4- Your defensively controlled player showing zero urgency in getting to some balls and throwing

    Easily how the game feels different depending on matchups. Seemed earlier in the year I was matching with more local people but since an update I’m all over and the gameplay suffers with lag.

    I get this. I sometimes hate how much the CPU takes over especially with things like fly balls or line drives that would require the player to jump. Many times the CPU just does it to compensate with the exit velo of the ball.
    Throwing I think is fine but I think the CPU does too much.

    I'm gonna have to send you a friend request, my man. I'm probably low ranked compared to you but I haven't played with any mature players like myself yet. I play coop almost exclusively and with my nephew. My boys are still way too young to play video games.

    @AdeptOfMemory_PSN sure, its the same here as in game lol. My 14 year old has gotten pretty good. i'm not saying i'm great, i get through All Star level pretty easy, and Hall of Fame i go back and forth on. I'm 17-1 in RS, he's 14-6 i think, but for whatever reason he beats me...and it irritates the [censored] out of me lol.

    @LIONED-33_XBL lol kids are good man! We getting too old! I sadly have lost many games to having to tend to my children at night but mostly due to freeze offs. Be on the lookout for an invite. I'm not good by anymeans or high ranked.

    Those are good records by the way!

    Double plays, double plays and double plays. It doesn't matter if it's online or cpu, the amount of double plays for and against me seem to be tuned up this year compared to the last few. Traditional double plays and the lineout double plays to first and third while someone on base to get tagged out is definitely up aswell.

    I disagree with the blanketing all custom stadiums as bad or cheesy. There are some good ones out there, with some talented creators.

    SDS can do better by setting better parameters in online H2H. They can remove elevation as a factor in online H2H and remove short/shallow fences. Those two things alone, would help a lot.

    My son just turned 30. Co-op is my favorite mode this year with him.

    It sucks that I never see these online though.

    Its either the clown stadiums like costco or twitch streamers with hideous nonsense all over. I dont want to see your subscriber's names when I play. But if I had the time/talent I would create a custom stadium for my team that would be hopefully aesthetically pleasing and play like a MLB stadium.

    The biggest issue is there isn’t enough time in a day to play this great game. Always want more

    PCI right on the ball with a good swing and you get short exit velo.

    Is your life this boring where you have time to go into every post and reply with this over the top nonsense everyday?
