When did this become an arcade game?

    I realize this has been building up to this point. I look at the standings for ranked and see averages in the .400s and eras in the 8’s. Not sure if people are finding 12-13 games enjoyable but at this point it’s egregious. Pitching has been rendered completely useless.

    When batting below .400 becomes “not good” there’s a genuine problem.

    Maybe I’m in the minority but I’d like to be able to play normal baseball online again.

    I started playing DD in '23 and it has always leaned toward arcade, especially once the rosters start filling out with 95+s. P.S. and most people play at Coors (or previously, Shield Woods).

    Have been playing since the first game in 06. Feeling like it’s reached the pinnacle.

    I completely agree! Everyone I face is batting .400-500 easy and I’d be lucky to get over .300 All Star seems to feel much harder for me this year than the past (maybe I’m just not a good hitter like some of these guys but idk)

    Depends on who has those averages, guys like cbrev can perfect/perfect with their eyes closed and their back to the monitor

    Edit: unless it's chuck norris' profile, cause ya know chuck norris doesn't swing the bat, he just looks at the ball and it flies over the wall

    In my eyes it has always been an arcade game as player skill is more important than what cards you are using

    Everyone is battling.400 because the games have mostly been played on veteran and all star. The hitters are also way better than the pitchers we have at the moment. The hall of fame games I've played are a little better.

    @Dolenz_PSN but but but, pay to win...lol. I'm glad you get it. There is a rather large group of players that continues to grow each year that would beat the breaks off of the rest of the players with a common card squad.

    Well, it's DD so it's set to competitive mode where your skills with the sticks are more important than the stats on the cards.
    You'd have to play online against someone where you can set it to simulation mode and use at least all star difficulty.
