    Not gonna tell us what happened champ?

    He was in a freeze off and quit, he's upset he took the L.

    Didn’t quit and I didn’t lose. Nice try, little cheating fanboy [censored].

    OK man, you need to stop with this. You called a guy a “cheating fanboy” because he politely explained to you what happened, as did many others on here.

    You’re taking a stand on a hill that you will die on. If you don’t want to accept how the online gameplay is right now, that’s fine, but being a douche to people who tried to help you is not cool.

    Let it go.

    There's no way anyone could objectively read this thread, or others by folks standing up to cheaters and being handed losses for no reason, and come way with that conclusion. Myself and others who explain the flaws in the online game are being met with responses like "you just suck" or "stop whining." Many of these trolls are almost certainly cheaters themselves. So no, I will not shut up just because you don't like the facts about why online play is currently illegitimate.

    Here is the plan I sent to SDS:

    1. Stop assigning wins and losses in the event of a server freeze.
    2. Fix lagging that is resulting in bad umpire calls and game-changing plays.
    3. Allow players a limited number of chances to leave an online game before a pitch is thrown to prevent mismatches.
    4. Do not allow starting pitchers to be used as relievers or, at the very least, severely limit their stamina.
    5. Disable the "hold R2" feature after the first inning a given pitcher is in the game.
    6. Make bunt defense better to prevent online abuse of bunting.
    7. Limit the number of pauses during a game, not just pause time.
    8. Do not allow friendly quit requests in the last 10 seconds of a player's pause time.
    9. Investigate reports of cheating and ban/strip wins from those who are caught doing so.
    10. Players who received losses as a result of proven cheating should also have those losses removed from their record.

    You do realize that your 10-step plan to solve cheating actually has nothing to do with cheating, right? What you describe are bugs or issues you have with the game. Nothing more, nothing less.

    No, I do not "realize" that. Cheating is cheating.

    This is not real. Its way too funny yo be taken serious. "Scandal.". "10 step program.". C'mon he's messing with you all. of course he knew about the freeze off rules. Why else would he leave the game running for a full hour? He just didn't have the patience to see it through. of course it's ridiculous we still have to talk about freeze office in the year 2020 but this is SDS and they're ridiculous servers we are talking about.

    Wait until this game is on PC, then you'll see real cheating.

    People already explained to you what happens when the game freezes and why you were confused.

    Nope, not confused at all. Neither are the hundreds of other players like me who have to deal with cheaters.

    Lol name one cheater or any of the hundreds of people being cheated. The guy that sent you a friendly quit when his timer ran low isn’t cheating, he’s just a sorry scrub. You have a lot of legit complaints, none are cheating, so maybe just go with a 4 or 5 step program instead of 10 to make it look official.

    Can’t help but think if I was in my first freeze off, and waited for a HOUR, it would only be incase the game was going to somehow unfreeze at any given point and I could steal a free win. That isn’t what YOU were doing is it?

    I listed cheaters I’ve played in another thread and the post was removed. Clearly SDS wants to hide this and protect the cheaters.

    Yo do you just want attention on this forum or something? Just discovered it? Stop with your ignorant complaints .. what makes you so entitled to complain about the game yet most people encounter the same things yet don't act like a entitled little brat.

    Yes, I put out a 10-step plan to fix the online game and I'm "ignorant" just because I don't sit here and agree with some video game company knowingly enabling cheating online, which I and others pay to play. Go soak your head in a tub of ice water, jackass.

    Some video game company? Are you sure your 10 step plan was sent to the right company? Your a laughable example of a child who shouldn't be allowed on gaming forums. If you're anywhere over 20.. smh no words. You try to sound smart but instead come off misinformed as well as resorting to name calling with profanity which I believe is against terms of service on this forum.. but hey I mean.. you have a ten step plan. You probably have been watching the news with your parents and think the term ten step plan is the smart way to go because it's on TV. I wasn't aware.. but I guess you develop video game software .. since ya have a ten step plan at all. Here I'll give ya your first payment.. tell your parents I said you can get your allowance one day early.

    So what’s your solution then, Philly fan? I sent the list to the company. I want to be able to play the online game I paid for without cheating and glitching that should have been fixed years ago. That’s it.
