Totally agree! It's just a game, it's going to do what it wants. Devs can't work properly because of pandemic, probably be stimulus devs released shortly.

Just relax and watch your fielders botch routine plays, don't take it so seriously. Instead of raging and complaining just buy some headliner packs.

Good to see some people have common sense in this forum.

I’m adopting the Hunter Pence approach from here on. If I’m back on here complaining after my next ranked game, you guys better call me out!

I've tried this. I can only take so many pitches down the middle. A few would be ok but it is 30 a game. Doesn't help that I get zero calls if the ball is touching the line but they are strikes against me.

You know, when I get like that I just have to turn the game off for a while. I feel you, but it is just not worth getting tilted.

Oh, I do. I started watching Homeland on Saturday and I am already almost through season 3. I would normally play video games during most of that time. Just can't stomach it. It isn't the hitting or fielding causing me to turn the game off, just the pitching.

Yeah, I feel that. For me, the strike zone (non-calls) and check swings that extend at bats are a big part of what hurts the gameplay.

You would think I’d have figured this out ages ago but here’s the thing.

The game is gonna do what the game is gonna do, and as we all have learned by now, much of the outcomes good or bad are beyond our control.

It really makes no sense to get tilted when the game is just doing what it has been programmed to do. It is not my fault when my outfield botches it, but somehow, I often take it personally.

They’re not called against you and not for you, dude stop with the conspiracy [censored]. Nobody gets corner or edge zone strikes. The game forces you to throw in the middle of the zone. But stop acting like you’re some unfortunate person getting screwed , it’s the same for all.

Yeah, it’s frustrating, but as you point out, in this game, for the most part we are not getting many pitcher’s pitches called for strikes. I’ve faced some players that are pretty good at dotting the corners, but most of us have to challenge our opponents because they are taking.

Sometimes I wish I streamed just to shut some of you up. Game runs same for everyone doesn't it? Not if you have half a brain.

I am almost done with Episode 8, Season 3. Haven't found that answer yet. Finn had 2 blue eyes. One blew one way, one blew the other.
