    I dont think you said that, it feels people go to the extreme when showdown does not go there way. It is a tough experience, but even if 5 at bats dont go your way there is still plenty if time to remedy it. The other factors that are problems in the game(fielding and pitching) u dont have to deal with in showdown which makes it a bonus as well

    I think the main issue is it says it is set on rookie/veteran and def does not play like it...and the all-star bosses play a lot higher than all star

    Change

    If they are going to call it veteran until the final, then have it be veteran. Not veteran x10.

    I think that is subjective to person, i feel it plays like it says it is. But u still have to just play the game. Meaning play baseball. People who say i had runners on 1st and 3rd with 3 outs and couldnt score is on them

    There is literally nothing wrong with showdown. I beat it about 25% of the time because I'm not the best at it. When I do succeed, I feel like I've really accomplished something. All the people that complain just need to understand that, in baseball, you lineout, guys make diving plays, not every ball you hit well is a base hit.

    The 3rd inning showdown already became substantially easier with only 1 elimination showdown. Also, most the missions were really simple. I got this one on my first attempt after getting 9 out of the possible 15 runs (i got impatient on the last few missions).

    I beat 3rd inning 1st time out, but been grinding out stage 1 Showdowns. So that could have something to do with it. But I did fail a lot, I had to go into final boss 7-15, but in my opinion it was a lot easier than the initial Showdowns.

    Still I am done with stage 2 TA Showdown, I bit the bullet and paid for PS plus so I do online missions.

    I can't beat the 3rd inning showdown. Last night I managed to tie it up, but couldn't get the winning run in.

    My problem is that I suck at getting xbh or whatever. If its just winning a game or something its easy, but as soon as you put in the xbh or runs requirements I'm done.

    I failed all of the XBH missions (last 3). In the mission where you have to get 4 hits and 2 XBH I finished with 11 hits but somehow only 1 xbh. But I found the final showdown a breeze. I got Medina from the Phillies as my final boss and the only thing he could throw for strikes were 93 mph sinkers and fastballs up in the zone.

    Now if only I could beat the TA showdowns...

    Here is a tip for those XBH missions.

    Check the pitcher's stamina right away. Sometimes it starts at 1/3 and if you get the pitcher to 25-30 pitches they are in the red and you are much likelier to get XBH.

    No change, though the RNG could be tweaked .... I like the challenge but sometimes things happen that would never happen in real life....

    Things hard. The day it came out I went 0-3 on it. Same day I went 3-1 in RS ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚. Canโ€™t make that up. I still havenโ€™t beat the [censored] thing.

    Showdown is a great addition to me. I feel like it plays at the correct level. There's definitely a strategy to building your squad and perks. It's one of my favorite parts of the game, actually.

    I haven't noticed insane defense or anything out of the ordinary---maybe I just don't "get it."
    I haven't tried any Stage 2 showdowns, but I've done the 1st, 2nd, 3rd inning and a few of the team affinity ones.

    Finished the second and third inning ones without too much trouble. I did have to do it three times for the third inning. I think I got the second one on my second try. The Al/NL donโ€™t seem too bad. Won the only one I tried. The first ones for all the separate decisions suck though. And you need them first to get to where you can use the others.

    I have won the division ones, I think, twice. I just lost two straight runs at Liam Hendriks, so itโ€™s back to MTO for me, I guess.
