Forfeit for what reason?
-
I don't often (aka, never) play on-line games. I figured I'd give it a shot to help out. Chose "Battle Royale", played the game up to 3rd inning. I am winning 1-0, and had a SS playing LF as a pinch-runner, so I was trying to change that and put in my closer.
It then said, "You forfeit the game." It told me I lost even though I gave up 1 hit and no runs.
Is there a reason for this (that I am unaware of)?

Pause timer ran out

You get a forfeit simply for a timer running out with no warning? Wow, I am so glad I never use that <censored>!
I am trying to change a SS from playing RF and bring in my closer, and I am given a forfeit not even knowing that would happen.
I wish someone would make a "non" on-line baseball game that has the quality this game has, and where they continue to enrich the game instead of this yearly pandering to a community who mostly want to cheat, complain and spend real money for on-line loot boxes. Doing this while literally ignoring so much of what is said by members and reviewers is a sad way to do business.
The reviews the past few years have basically said, "Yup, great game. If you like to play it as a game and run a Franchise, you got nothing new and it is now stale. On-line stuff is good and gets better, but if you want to play your own baseball season, it is kind of a waste of money because they won't improve the Single-player game".
It was not just one review that I saw that in, either. I really thought if reviewers were flat out putting in their reviews that the game is stale, they would have decided in one of the years since 2014 to improve the game for people who DO NOT play on-line. They basically haven't.
I wish...

Thank you for explaining that...I literally had no idea that feature existed.

You didn't notice the clock ticking down while you were paused?

See, for me, as a vision impaired player, I may not have seen that timer. This is just another reason why accessability with screen reader functionality, or an audible notice that a timer is running out should be implimented.

You don't automatically forfeit when the timer runs out, it gives a prompt to the opponent. The opponent forfeits your game. It's frustrating if you didn't know, but it's a necessary part of online play.
