Weekend classic lag. Goodluck

@Barfy-Bad-Gas_XBL Think it may be a huge disadvantage in this game. Would love to know if your show experience improves and if you did anything.
What I've found are away games are bad like 90%. Home about 67%. I have to home hunt in weekend classic or I won't play the game.

@DemIsE4_XBL I tried plugging in hard wire (i'm only about 20 feet from my box so getting great signal) but my nat/port settings won't allow me to connect to MLB the show. That is the only thing I thought of to try.

I hadn't played online much for a couple of years but this year has seemed to be better and at least playable without frustrating me too much. This Weekend classic has been different for me so far. 2 of my 3 games have had terrible lag. One of them I was facing Greg Maddux on all star and he was too fast for me. Those 2 games were back to the point where you basically need to push the swing button as the pitcher releases the ball to have good timing.

I’ve played two games this far. First game lagged out before the game started and said I lost connection with the opponent. I was awarded the win. Next game I was up 3-2 at the end of the top of the 3rd inning, had just struck out opponent’s hitter for the 3rd out, lagged out and lost connection again. Awarded em the win and the rewards.
Is this because I have a bad connection? Or my opponent? Because I’m hardwired with a fiber wire Ethernet cable so I can’t imagine my connection is bad.

I’m running fiber and upload and download speeds of around 6 or 700. I’ve noticed today the gameplay is alittle bit better but overall still really bad. I agree home games are not AS bad but every game has issues for me to some extent. It’s just not enjoyable this year. I find having to constantly adjust timing makes it tough to progress in the game. When I watch content creators online they seldomly have internet issues. It’s all really bizarre. Someone asked if I’m hardwired… I am. I will say my TV is an LG oled c9. But I’ve heard that tv can compete with most monitors. The amount of dink hits, foul balls, the defensive errors are comical, the late and early swings during WC though your fairly certain you mounted the ball up. The warping, the pitches randomly going middle middle, the brutal exit velo when it’s lagging really bad. I can go on and on and on. Today was better but still brutal. I did manage to match with another person from Texas and that games connection was too bad for me but he asked for a friendly cause his was rough so we only made it through a couple innings but being matched with someone nearby was a breath of fresh air. My other matchups were west coast and it was [censored]

Sounds like i may wait another month to try WC.
-
I would say it depends on where you are located. Give it a shot if it’s brutal then I would bounce. I say that but I can’t stop. But I have a problem and I’m addicted to this game though it’s a mess and doesn’t run well at all. It’s the only game I play at all. For years

@RAisEdByGoAt_XBL I tried it again last night. I did not experience the same sort of lag. I did move to my OLED gaming tv/monitor and plugged my controller in. Not sure that had anything to do with it.

@Barfy-Bad-Gas_XBL
Thanks for the update. I played this morning. Smoother gameplay but I’m still get warped pitches. Once again the best I can explain it is when batting the pitcher releases the pitch. There is a very slight hiccup and then the game tried to overcompensate for it and bring the pitch back to real time so for me the pitch zips in at a ridiculous speed. It’s as if the game hits pause then hits play but fast forwards really fast to catch back up to real time. It’s very tough to play. Feels like GOaT -
@RAisEdByGoAt_XBL yeah that's exactly what I was experiencing 2 nights ago. DIdn't happen to me last night but I only played one game

This WC I haven't had any issues with lag, alot of warped pitches (Probably need to reset my upload priority for my consol again). I have however seen that with this shortened time in Gold 2 the top 25 rank people are all guys who have been 1000+ rated in the last 2 WC. I'm not gonna say they have been sand bagging and just want to get easy wins. I feel like people might not have had enough time to make it up higher. But it did also highly impact my WC, 3 previous went 4-2, 5-1, 5-1 then this 1 went 2-4 with 3 of those being against legitimate previous 1000+ players with 90-20, 100-60, 59-9 records. This is pretty much exactly what WC was suppose to avoid, but again I am doing my best not to blame the players because non of us really knew it was gonna be a 1 week then WC again.

@Rhyno1986_XBL I did realize this and completely agree with ur post. Saw it on my other thread as well. Thank you.

Hitting is extremely hard this year. Playing on hof is so boring. No one can hit.
-
Well I’m instantly finding matches when I ready up but I’m connecting to people from Pasco Washington which is 3,000 miles away and Gallup NM which is 2,400 miles away from me because I guess nobody in the north east plays this game online?
-
@VioletNine9_XBL I instantly find matches as well 90 percent of the time. This morning it finally took about 10-15 seconds and lo and behold I played a round that was somewhat smooth.
-
I would assume it's just more people are online playing because of the weekend classic plus it being the weekend.
I haven't played the past 2 or 3 weekend classics but when I do play ranked it's usually only Monday mornings eastern time from like 7-11am...oddly specific but I don't have work then and I can be in the mindset to deal with ranked.
From what I can remember all year when I've play ranked (about 30 games) plus prob 12 weekend classic games I haven't really had many connection issues or underwater swings that people mention. I do have crossplay turned OFF... I have spectrum 2nd tier internet an upgraded version they offer but not fiber
