You had a 5-2 game on rookie? Lol
It’s actually on Veteran. There’s no rookie in RS

Okay veteran. It felt like rookie when I play. Still I couldn’t fathom a 5-2 game when I played there. Maybe on a quit after the 1st.

You probably won't get a lot of hate for this because your experience is the way it should be. However, it WILL eventually happen to you and you'll see why some of us go out of our way to call out the toxicity for what it is.
Last night alone, I sent in three reports because of 1) bunt dancers and strictly bunting with the top five players in the lineup to be dickish; 2) graphic team name/team logo, ALONG with bunt dancing and R2 holding; and 3) continuous vulgar messages sent to me for using Bob Feller and striking the dude's [censored] out seven straight to start the game.
It will happen to you eventually and it won't be pleasant. No hate; just real talk.
You reported someone for bunt dancing and bunting? And for holding R2? I can understand the rest of it, but come on. People just like you are why they don't take those reports seriously and nothing gets resolved. Honestly, how many times have you reported someone this year?
When this goes on for an ENTIRE game, I'm not putting up with the horseshit of it all. I had every right to report them for it.
If dudes are going to exploit the bunt mechanism in this game by stacking their lineup with all speed guys and strictly bunt just to get on base via the fielding exploit, that's when [censored] becomes too much. And being able to actually send short snippets of video makes it even better.
As I said in a separate thread, there's a special place in Hell for these people...and they're definitely not good people outside of a baseball sim.
Dude, those people suck but you're not exploiting the game if you stack your team with bunters. Play your second base in and you'll get them out every time (well, maybe every time). Let them give you the outs. Easy peasy.
Doesn't work. Trust me my guy...I attempted everything under the sun that I could think of.
If there's anything I can say that sort of redeems the sonofabitch, it's that he was quite good at exploiting it for what it is. I don't think I've played an RS game like that EVER...and I've been playing since '15.

Just to add to the good feelings, I had a really lovely game against someone at their home Fenway a couple of weeks ago. I lost but the game was excellent and I wish all RS games were like that. My opponent played so well in a comeback so well done to them.
-
I use excuses when I lose games, I blame it on the alcohol. Most of the time that is the case. To many drinks and I’m swinging at everything, I start fielding like an uncoordinated toddler. But you know what I enjoy the game so much more when I’m buzzing

Oh I agree. Ok completed my first 9 inning game when I was in the 700’s. All quits or mercies before that.
Have to remember not everyone has a decent skill set or timing to put up alot of runs

I don't play online that much, almost 100 games last year but only 8 RS games this year. No events, no BR. So, I don't see all the cheese that everyone else does.

The only thing they're exploiting is the fact that you won't use bunt defense. Maybe some people like using speed guys and playing small ball. Maybe thats how they win games. It obviously works against you. Look how upset they get you. Just whoop them and move on. Don't let them bother you. I'd be careful about judging people's characters over how they play a video game, it makes you look like the one who's not the greatest person irl

I played someone who tried to bunt for a hit 7 times in the last 4 innings. I can't imagine anyone wanting to play MLBTS to be trying to bunt every 3rd PA. There's a lot of players out there who will go to ridiculous lengths to win, even if it makes the overall experience for everyone miserable.

No offense, but I have a hard time buying someone logs in to MLBTS RS because they envisioned bunt-singling and base-stealing their way to a 2-1 win. I think you hit the nail on the head that these guys don't have the skill to hit. I think what you're missing is that trying to exploit game mechanics (bunt success rate in this case) to win at the expense of having a good game makes the overall experience for everyone worse, not better.

I’m the same way, come home after a night out and you bet I’m firing up the playstation ready to beat down on someone (when in reality i can’t see a thing and i get 2 hit).....but god [censored] is it enjoyable

@brrxdy_psn said in I played my 1st two ranked seasons games yesterday...:
that's how the majority of games will be. a lot of the people on here just like to find something to complain about i guess
Oh yes. I know plenty of people who do that in life period..I've never been one of those..There are completely ahole players you will run into if you keep playing online. There are alot of cheeseballs..Complain? Why bother. Nothing better than digging down deep and pulling a win off of them IMO.

Good point. When I see those players come up I use bunt defense usually or corners in if they are like an 85 speed or so.

You’re right, plenty of fine games; the longer you play, the higher the odds you run into one of these nefarious players eventually.
