    You’ve said it well - you and I don’t care about flipping, it’s just not our desire

    I’d rather just play baseball but some people do enjoy the market aspect. Sucks for them that their enjoyment got nonchalantly stifled.

    If I were those guys I’d be pissed too

    I agree, I understand the upset and disappointment but pre-emptively dismissing anyone who may disagree as contrarian seems a little too broad in it's scope. Flipping is merely an aspect of the game, not the point of the game.

    And I say that as someone who has probably played less this year than any other regulars here.

    And that’s sad. You love this [censored] game and do data points and apps and cool stuff to keep people engaged that Sony themselves don’t do

    Crimson Desert, Flight Simulators, Forza you’re attention is now to things that are cool and salvageable

    Take gameplay elements from those games and apply them to baseball and a good baseball game could emerge

    Hey, I finally rolled credits on Crimson Desert after god knows how many hours (well over 100 would be my guess). Forza Horizon is still new and shiny though.

    Collections are basically you need 20 cards. We'll give you 3 but the rest you have to buy or get extremely lucky with pack pulls
    Chase card with a .001% chance of getting is the best card every week

    @DemIsE4_XBL only those first two are big problems. Pack luck is what it is. And collections shouldn’t be easy to complete every single time. It might take you a little extra time. But you really don’t need to do every single collection as those cards and their usage fade quickly, unless it’s the main live series collection. But that still depends on who it is.

    Irrelevant to the discussion. The OP only mentioned Flipping and I responded to that. I never stated there were not other issues

    Also if you look at the post I linked from 3 years ago you'll see that way back then I complained about expensive packs with such bad odds that they were guaranteed to separate players from their stubs

    Shouldn't have quoted you. I was mainly discussing things in the game that are awful. Yes, lack of lineup diversity with full switch hitter lineups is one of them. Makes the game stale.

    Any card that has a decent margin is always spammed by these bots. Its either sds doing it to keep flipping higher cards to a minimum or they are too incompetent to stop the 3rd party stub sellers from farming the market to gain stubs to sell the players. Dont worry tho because if you buy stubs from the 3rd party they WILL ban YOU.

    This is by far the worst year for this game. Anyone saying different are simply hell bent on disagreeing just to disagree.

    Still cant believe that there is only one team affinity, 50% of the time there just isnt an event, the cheaters and bots have been swept under the rug, the first roster update was a joke (see cal), the list of blunders could continue for while. L year sds.

    And no. I didnt lose. I just tried to flip the 94 bregman card and the bots triggered me lol.

    I uninstalled this game. I can’t stand the steals or the gameplay in general. Got my fill of facing Michael King for the year. This game does not deserve anyone’s time.

    I wholeheartedly agree with this, of course I'm still trying because I love baseball, but do not know for how much longer.

    Their attention is on their Mobile game release, not this one.

    I am so annoyed every time I open the app on my phone and the splash screen screams at me "PREORDER THE MOBILE APP!!!"

    I will not. I just want to log in, see how poorly my investments are doing, cry a little, and then go on about my day.

    as a die hard baseball fan I will always play the game even if not as much as I do now but I even find myself not wanting to play this game anymore. I’m playing much less then beginning of year and don’t miss it at all. This game is becoming much more stale much earlier in the year then normal usually for me I play till atleast end of baseball season so World Series but man this year lucky if I make it to allstar break without needed a lengthy break to freshen up this game again the avarage players are being pushed away wether ur a market junkie who’s being pushed away by bots wether u are a ranked pvp die hard like myself who is being pushed out by losers who cheat and use scripts. Whether it’s the rng. Whether it’s the shotty servers being down. The back breaker for people is that it’s being made very obvious we aren’t priority this new mobile game is where all there energy is going not fixing ur actually yearly product. Like last year was far from a great game but it was paradise compared to this mess. I get sds is a corporation and has to make money but my god scratch the peoples back who put the money in ur guys pockets my god this is getting tiring quick…

    Edit: somebody is clearly listening just opened the app and didn’t get asked to pre register for the stupid waste of oxygen of a mobile game…

    If you’re playing mobile try an all switch-hitter lineup to throw your opponent off their game

    @Dolenz_PSN "Irrelevant to the discussion. The OP only mentioned Flipping and I responded to that."

    no you just read the beginning, found somthing you disagreed with, and then [censored] talked me in the comments.

    "Still cant believe that there is only one team affinity, 50% of the time there just isnt an event, the cheaters and bots have been swept under the rug, the first roster update was a joke (see cal), the list of blunders could continue for while. L year sds."

    But go ahead, fluff yourself in the comment like a pseudo-intellectual redditor.

    I'm trying to figure out who in the hell would want a mobile game. I love baseball and I wouldn't touch that thing if they paid me.
