Time to Blow This Game Up

Dude, I like your lists and think they are accurate, but can you please stop posting new topics and just add to one plz. I keep reading these hoping for something new but its the same general thing. No problem with the list, I like it, but can you please keep it to just a couple topics. Thx!

@Dolenz_PSN I’m still waiting for the free wins I’m supposed to get as a lower ranked player; any day now

Yeah man, I'll do the best I can with that. Sometimes these threads get locked because certain members hijack it, but this one seems to have more positive momentum and conversation going, finally. Appreciate the respectful request!
I'm starting to think you're on the forums more than you play the game. Honestly, no need to waste your time replying if you didn't bother reading what anyone's written. Multiple people laid it out articulately and with personal experience. I just played a 2 inning game (signed up for 9) because I put 3 runs on my opponent in quick fashion. I was hitting pitches in locations that would ordinarily be groundouts for me. I was buffed. Is it unfair of me to question my own "stellar" performance?
EDIT: I creeped like other people did with me. This guy has played 26 games of ranked ball this year. A record of 13-13 (buff, nerf, buff, nerf anyone?) On top of that, his last two 9 inning ranked games took place on June 29 and July 26 respectively. He mainly plays the computer. And he's telling me, someone with 142 games under his belt, that I'm full of it? You gotta raise those numbers and play a couple games a day, then get back at us.

@Squid_Adams_MLBTS I’ve been on the forums for years and your complaint is nothing new. That the game has matchmaking problems or connection inconsistency issues or other stuff that cause a frustrating experience for players, no one is disputing that.
But yeah the game helping Timmy tinfoil hat theory is always the same. You think that my 26 RS games this year (according to your research) is my only online experience? This year and overall?

It's right there for anyone to see. I encourage people to look up his game history if they're so inclined. Myself and others PLAY this game. We play it a lot. We're invested. So when it plays like trash, we're more affected than casuals like you. You can see yourself out until you have something better for me. Not to discount the first part of your post where you actually admitted to some of the game's faults.

@Squid_Adams_MLBTS I’ll play:
You’re 68-74 online, and you have a bunch of losses vs the CPU; you may play a lot but you’re maybe just not good enough to overcome the game’s DDA. I don’t know; may be a skill issue.

@Squid_Adams_MLBTS Okay, Thanks! Forgot to think about that
-
I am a Championship Series borderline World Series level player on my best days. I don't claim to be elite. All things considered, I'd say I'm above average. Are we shifting the debate to who's better or worse at the game? I'm talking about sample size. Mine dwarfs yours. I know what I'm talking about, you think you do. There's a difference.
All good man!

@Squid_Adams_MLBTS I was just going down to your level to make a point. Some of the things you pointed out may or may not be issues depending on your point of view or may be objectively observable.
Though you lose all credibility when you bring in conspiracy theories. From my experience back when I played a lot online (can’t anymore because time), whenever I got to my “glass ceiling”, I’d experience L/W/L/W a lot because I was constantly matched with players equal or slightly above/below my max skill level. Nothing nefarious.

Not as easy to write all that out with the amount of people agreeing with me, is it? Much more simple when it's you and 5 others against me. Play the game more.
As a big Brett Favre fan, I was right about Bounty Gate before it became official. I'm sure the @yankblan_PSN 's of the real world thought I was a conspiracy theorist then too.

@fubar2k7_PSN silly comment. You must not play the game a lot. We don’t know the exact reason for favoring an opponent. It could be market manipulation or sliders being adjusted for players that aren’t as high in rank. I don’t know but many others on this forum have explained it well. There is absolutely no reason you can go 5-30 on goods with very hard and solid contact while ur opponent is making very soft early and late (dink) contact putting runners on base with sudden slams. I’ve had defense errors randomly at crucial moments. I’ve had games where my perfect-perfect outs were more common than they weren’t. I’ve had perfect pitches hung and annihilated and perfect pitches called balls when they were very much so in the zone. And no I’m not talking about dots on the line. For me it’s the random meatballs down the center. You will be pitching well all game then suddenly ur pitch meter doesn’t go green and it hangs down the middle always a homer 800 and up players. The list goes on and on.
The issue is the gameplay. It isn’t consistent and if you actually read what he said he admitted sometimes the game sways in his favor and we all agree and have seen the same but that’s not what we want. If I’m playing good one day and slaughtering the ball well more than my opponent I should get good feedback. Not rage quit. And the days I’m playing terrible I deserve to get stomped. However, it just doesn’t work that way anymore.So the script favors the team that’s losing the game. Or so that’s what I’m gathering from the information thrown around here. So if I look at the leaderboard there isn’t anyone up there anymore winning 90% of their games. Everyone is around 50/50 now?

@fubar2k7_PSN silly post. Think about what you are saying for a minute

@Squid_Adams_MLBTS what the heck are you rambling on now?

I think everyone in here besides @yankblan_PSN is whining because they can’t beat another human being more than another human beats them. FYI: I was under .500 back in the day when I cared to bother playing online and nobody that far under is sniffing Championship or World Series. I don’t even play DD this year so I don’t even post on the matter. I just got dragged into it by you clowns.

Fubar2k7 stats:
98 Games against the CPU
0 Ranked Games. No Head to Head, No Battle Royale.... this dude doesn't even play competitively.Your opinion is more worthless than @yankblan_PSN . Why even enter a discussion like this if you have no clue what you're talking about? Your credibility is dead and buried.
Let the people who play this game and see it for what it is do the talking. Sounds like you avoid online play because deep down you know we're right.

How do you know, without a shadow of a doubt, that he doesn't play online?
Because of his User Profile?
Maybe he has two accounts and uses the one, associated with this forum, to only play offline. And another, that isnt associated with this forum, that he uses to play online?
