what are your thoughts on using cap
-
Original dd was all generic created players whom you could rename. If I remember correctly I was banned for giving my players inappropriate Native American slang names but I’m Native American lol My leadoff? Bannick slapped .
I don’t care either way what people use but I don’t use one.

@lord_blumpkin35 said in what are your thoughts on using cap:
title pretty much sums it up. im not mad that people use them since they are in the game, (I never will use one) but I just personally dont see why they are there for ranked games. trying to get the point across that I cant be like mad ppl have chipper bc they used their money for him/ or people have a creative player with 125 across the board and 95 speed but I dont think its place is in online ranked games
buddy its an arcade style blast - make sure your CAP looks hideous or unique - mine is a 4 foot 10 ogre dwarf named Mike Rotchburns - he rakes at SS though right now i am grinding for the Story 96 to replace
-
I just did the grind for my CAP and have a switch hitting Griffey with 125 contact, 115 power, 91 speed, 90 fielding, 88 reaction and 88 arm.
I’ve used him like four games and he rips the ball…hit a walk off bomb in a WS game the last time I played with him against Mariano.
Everyone else uses one and it’s fun to mess with the animations, archetype and gear combos.
I used to hate it until u tried it. It’s really fun to mess with and it is fun to have another good player to work with in your lineup.
-
I wouldn't mind them if you couldn't make a switch hitting prime Barry Bonds that plays shortstop. In 18, 19 and 20 when CAP's were good but not OP it was fine. I don't even care that I am at a disadvantage. I won't use them
-
Never liked the CAP in DD. I never will.
I'll never use one. There's plenty of cards to choose from. Want a CAP? That's what RTTS is supposed to be for. Not DD.
-
Cap should only be in RTTS. DD is already a cheese fest
-
CAP is probably my favorite thing about the game.. always has been. To be able to create a player with my own name and likeness is great for a fantasy team. That's the closest I'll ever get to being on a professional baseball team. I'd rather have my CAP than any other player in the game. Don't you guys get that taken away from me!!
-
They have a part in the game. People like having a "player" they create. It's one player. It doesn't ruin the game at all. We all have the same opportunity to have the same player. You can't always say that in DD
-
I didn’t use a CAP LY and got annoyed by how juiced they are but this year Ricky Franchise (aka maxed Hawk) is my lead off hitter because why the f not.
-
After seeing how insanely good the CAPs could be this year, my thoughts were if you can’t beat em, join em.
I created Jim Lahey at SS and he’s well worth the relatively short amount of time to get him.
Over 115 on all hitting stats, 90+ fielding and arm, 80+ speed and of course switch hitting. Like others said, actually pretty fun to use
-
LAME AF!!!
-
CAPS shouldn’t be in ranked. I’m not a fan
-
When in rome do as the romans. If you’re anti cap then perhaps make a player you like but cannot afford. Like trout but can’t get him got make trout. Like Jeter make a jeter. Like story but can’t afford him make a story. Make their stats close to the actual card at pxp 5 if it makes you feel better.
-
Im not a fan, but you cant afford to not have one. I would love for them to get rid of them. Or stleast give them attribute caps and not allow pitching caps. 6'10" lefty submarine pitchers throwing 100 mph fastballs with 4 breaking balls is stupid
-
Never have never will. I made created players in Franchise, thats where they belong. Want to make a player, by all means do it but its not for me. If I wanted to Id play RTTS or Franchise. I play DD for the Legends and Flashbacks.
-
I don’t know why I do that so often
-
What do you have to do to get the stats up to 100s for CAP? Sorry never even looked into it, do you need to play RTTS?
-
I will never use cap. And I hate how glitchy pitcher you can make and take him to RS, I really don't understand this is allowed in competitive mode
-

I think it should be used offline as well. I can't stress enough of what a difference it makes for guys like me who seriously wanted to make MLB. It takes away the pain.
I don't play RS - not good enough offensively, maybe good enough pitching-wise - but I think a CAP has no place in ranked games unless there's a, ahem, cap on that CAP. Maybe 89 overall like last year. -
Yes its fun.
The same way i play simulation football (soccer) manager games and have myself as the manager.
Its a video game.
