    I'm an ok player , I rely on pitching mistakes to get hits . When my opponent consistently dots his pitches and gets perfect inputs on almost all pitches regardless of location and ptch type, I can't hit and I get suspicious. Some pitches are difficult to get perfects consistently like a righty sinker dotted on the inside corner of a lefty batter . Circle changes on pinpoint are difficult to get perfect all the time . Regardless you gotta try to beat them .

    There's another small cheat in coop, your opponent will start downloading something on their console, even if you're the host it only has an effect on your gameplay, it runs just fine for them.

    Have any of faced players who use a pitcher and that said pitcher is not the one you’re actually facing in game? Was going up against Bailey ober in 2v2 and was throwing 103 with a screwball so really we were facing satchel Paige. And vice versa the next game against the same players.

    There aren’t that many in this game. You probably got beat and sorry. This game isn’t in a situation like COD is and I hope it never does.

    @TTVtrellz9_XBL said in Cheaters:

    How can they allow so many players who are clearly cheating?

    That's a very interesting choice of words you use. First, I assume you mean SDS when you say "they" and I assume you think SDS actually has a legitimate option available to them to prevent people from cheating in online competition games.

    OK, let's think on that a bit. MLB has a rulebook that is very thick indeed, and they employ at least four highly paid professional umpires to be on the lookout for cheating and to rule against it in the game should it happen. MLB also employs a big staff of folks heading by a highly paid executive director whose job it is to investigate complaints or suspicion of cheating that the umpires failed to catch during the game. All that being the case, we know that players and sometimes whole teams still get away with cheating and certainly try to do so from time to time.

    Given that, within a league of 30 teams and about 1,000 players, coaches, managers, and GM's, how can it be reasonable for you to expect SDS to prevent cheating in all perceived forms within a community of millions of customers who play their game?

    Some people cheat. Moreover, some people perceive cheating when in truth none is happening. It's part of the game and I think SDS has devoted more than enough code time to try to tamp down the worst of it. Frankly, stop expecting perfection within a very imperfect world.

    Finally, we have a myriad of laws on the books, and yet, we still manage to fill up most all of our prisons. That should put it fully into perspective!

    @ViKiNG861987_PSN I think I had this happen to me yesterday. I was up 6-0 at the end of the 8th inning and my opponent had 1 hit. Then in the 9th he started connecting with EVERYTHING. I swapped pitchers every 3 batters - Made no difference. After shutting this guy down for 8 innings, I couldn’t get one out. He won 8-6 and I never even recorded an out. This was both our play in game for WS too, Which made it even worse.

    Yup, I agree with this take. Some pitches are just harder to hit like the ones you mentioned, and some guys are just that good...but very few. I'm not WS calibre by any stretch but I'm good enough to know when something ain't stirring the kool-aid

    won't help. I got almost all the cards from flipping and I still lose. Aging is undefeated.

    This is why I'm happy the game is not on PC.
    If you look at PGA 2K25, the entire online is PC cheaters.
    If you're on console you can't compete with guys shooting -50 for a round and -90s or better for 4 rounds.
    I gave up on PGA 2K25 for this reason.

    Some ppl saying people are that good at golf but that's b.s. It's been proven on reddit that PC players who cheat are using controller mods.

    Just completely broke that game for me. If MLBTS goes that route then they need to separate PC and console.

    Put the game on PC so I can pause the game mid liner and move the CPU fielder out of the way so my good swings can be rewarded. Plus no more super dives and leaping catches from the CPU either. I lose between 5 to 11 hits per game vs CPU to that annoying nonsense.

    Be careful guys … I played tons of players that cannot hit but pitch brilliantly … Calling them cheaters just bc they are good at something is … crazy. If you really want to cheat, who would want to do it on pitching?!??!
    I cannot hit too and I am hitting perfects a lot while pitching

    There's a program you can use. I've seen a YouTube video covering it.

    Anybody know a i614******e on Xbox? Buddy wants to freeze my game for being down 3-0 in the top of the 4th inning.
