    Fielding is terrible, late jammed hits every where, RP can't be warmed up consistently and get shelled.

    This game is a hot mess with a HR display more durable than Michael Myers.

    If Michael Myers could of just channeled that consistency towards the game of baseball, he woulda been a legend of the game !

    Because people keep pumping money into the game for DD. It doesn't matter if the gameplay is good or not, as long as they are getting the amount of extra money from people buying stubs. I'm not saying this to hate on people who do buy stubs, if you have the money and want to spend it on this game that's fine ( I bought some the first year I ever played DD, but have not and never will again for something that is only good for one season) but they will never fix the many many issues they have in all the other modes if people keep doing that. Franchise is basically unplayable now because all their resources have gone toward Diamond Dynasty, which is understandable from a company stand point but you lose the fan base that supported the original version of this game that was all about franchise

    It seems that this year's game was a mail-in while they focus on next year's multi-platform release.

    In the field he would never have to make a throw. He would just walk after the runner and they would fall down.

    I'm sure this will be seen by some as trolling, but I assure you it is not. Do you truly, honestly, believe SDS doesn't know more about the software and how people are using it than we do? That they don't look at utilization across game modes an aggregate data from thousands of users, most of whom don't post on message boards? That they don't have a pretty clear idea of what makes money, what loses money, and decide to invest time based on data that they have and we don't?

    Yes, a vocal small group of users can get messages out to devs about fine points, and they clearly listen. But deciding to invest development resources is not affected by how mad a forum user is or how passionate the small number of online franchise fans are. I am relatively certain the decisions are made based on data and business priorities. If you had a game mode with 300,000 users paying microstransactions, and another game mode with 10,000 users and no microtransactions, where would you invest?

    PS. I love online franchise and I would play only that if it still existed. I'd pay a premium monthly fee for it, say 9.99. And I NEVER buy stubs.

    The hitting and fielding are spot on. The pitching with that silly meter has to go! NO ONE should be using buttons to hit and pitch in 2020.

    Is it just me or are there suddenly a disproportionate amount of posters who don’t come here very often to post, popping up in threads stating that hitting and fielding are spot on, good/okay is not an issue and other strange statements that hold no relation to hard facts?

    Remember though, they have this obsession with rebuilding everything every year, so it's more than just what cards they give us. If they didn't put all the time and resources into changing systems every year we'd probably have a pretty good game by now.

    Lol if this is true its sad because it sure looks cut and paste with the same issues every year to start out.
