Yes I am not very happy either. I understand their goal is to make money and for those that like to spend money on content, good on you. But I like everyone else paid for the actual game (not content) and expect a certain level of game play. I am glad that there is good content out there but they need to fix the game play as well. There are still issues with timing and user input in pitching as well as many others from looking on these forums.
It almost seems like pure stubbornness that they are refusing to admit that their game has issues. It took the players league and pro players bad mouthing fielding for anything to get done!
It's too bad as I really like the game and have bought it every year since 07. And since DD came to be, the focus on game play has been less and less and the amount of bugs/issues has been more and more!
They have been promising more offline content, and there was a bit of that this year, but it didn't included our DD teams! I preorder the Digital Deluxe edition every year with the hopes of more offline DD modes, yet the only thing I can do with my DD team is conquest or play vs cpu, which they are reducing the xp to in this new patch!!! So no more Digital Deluxe Preorder for me next year. I will just pick it up used 1 month after release and save myself the heartache.
Is anyone here happy...like, ever?

Overall I still like the game! But these critical gameplay issues don't give it a very good replay value for offline players. I would play a lot more if I was rewarded for proper user input and had more offline options with my DD team!

Retro and hrd did have an imbalance of xp but so many people already used that to prestige up. Now at this point it’s not really cool to nerf those modes as other people have no way to catch up if they so desire. I’m in no rush to level up and go up 5-10 levels somedays just playing events and ranked. I think they should have made sure all the xp was balanced and if it wasn’t raise the xp for regular games to the level of retro or derby for time played in the mode. Thank would have been the most user friendly way to adjust the imbalance imo

I think I’m general we all have a love for baseball and being able to play something like diamond dynasty is nice. But it’s extremet frustrating to see how fast they can fix them losing money but not gameplay

This would be way more fair: but what’s in it for SDS if they do that? They lose money so it won’t happen

Yes my point exactly. It's really a big f-you to the user base! I am all for fixing exploits but what about fixing the broken game people paid their hard-earned money for!
From what I have seen of SDS over the years I think they are getting a bit arrogant about their game! I think at this point they will not fix it as to them it would mean admitting they messed something up! In all honesty, if it wasn't for the players league and pro players screaming that fielding is broken, I don't think fielding would have gotten any patches either!

Unfortunately it’s a monopoly. We will get results when another baseball game drops

I agree with this and you brought up a good point about damage already being done and those who didn't take advantage of the exploit, being left out to dry.

Yeah they put the xp awards in that way, making is more “beneficial” to grind derby or play retro for hours. They have to have a scale of time played - xp awarded. It’s not even really an exploit it’s just finding the best ratio of time/xp and going that route. If I get close to a big pack like gold 1 etc I’ll grind derby or retro to bang the last couple levels out quick. I think that the most xp should be in the DD mode, playing head to head online. I can grind a 9 inning game all sweaty for an hour, using full concentration, and get like 5600 Or I can get 10k in an hour on retro or get it in a 1/2 hour in derby, not sweaty w little concentration. If an imbalance was discovered then you raise the main modes to make people want to put the time there as it’s balanced. It’s too late to nerf imo, that would be my pitch if I worked for the company

Yep said perfectly all the way. The big thing about rushing to level up is if you hit 99 prestige now wtf is there left to do? Most these dudes probably got Mantle so you got like 8 99s in your lineup 6 weeks in whats the pint of even playing lol.

Why don’t they patch a foul ball being called a foul tip. I ball fouled into the stands is not a foul tip!!!!
This has bugged me for years, every time I see it. I posted on here about that before and crickets. This is more of a card collecting game than a baseball game.

Lol bro if they think a ball fouled into the stands is a foul tip it justifies any smack talking they’ve ever received

I'm done with SDS as well. I jumped from Madden to 2k, got tired of 2k money grabs and decided to try out SDS. I'll go back to single player games, I just can't.

Everyone’s gotta eat. If they addressed gameplay it would be different. They rush to fix something that cost them money but not gameplay. That’s straight trash

Agreed. That's why I'm baffled at what a wreck this game actually is. Basic gameplay is crummy. Patches make things worse than they were before. The bigger problem is that this latest microtransaction cash grab is blatantly obvious in a time when people are dying and the economy is tanking. Plenty of million dollar companies are adjusting accordingly to keep their customers, e.g., AllState. Unless SDS does a complete about face, they will likely never see a dime from me again.
