    "I’ve never regretted buying a game more than this."

    I bought the $120.00 version of battlefield 2042 lol

    😂😂 I was sooo close to buying that and extremely glad I held off

    Back to Elden Ring and new game+

    At least I earn what happens in that game. If I die, it was my fault, if I succeed, it’s due to my input

    With this game? Lol yeah the outcome is taken out of your hands way more than ever

    The RNG in this game is as rampant as ever and I firmly believe that’s a direct correlation to The Show being released on Switch and Xbox last year

    Can’t have new users get beat and then not play anymore/spend money on IAP. Gotta make the outcomes even more random so they feel like they have a chance with a new shiny, better card

    What a disgrace this game has become. I get it’s early and patches are coming. But I have 0 faith in SDS anymore

    I'm not sure they ever claimed to fix sinkers, just that they were less accurate up in the zone, which is mostly true. I'm not sure they have ever claimed for it to be a competitive experience either. They always market it as a simulation. I'm not defending this games problems by any means, but there is a lot of assumptions by this community that give them a false idea of what this game is supposed to be

    Not 100% sure but I believe they stated that they corrected the break of sinkers last year as well as decreasing accuracy. The break is as unrealistic as ever.

    And they also claimed last year that “stick skills matter more than ever” which implies a competitive game which this is not. I get that was last year but man, idk.

    I get your point and agree with you. Just frustrated with what this game has become and the obvious route it’s been heading down. I became addicted to DD back in 17, love baseball more than any sport but it’s sad to see what this game is becoming

    I got BF4 free through PS+ and I regretted it...

    That's because the bf4 on ps+ is a ps3 game.

    The bf4 ps4 game Is quite good

    I think most people are frustrated that their ceiling is not as high as they'd like it to be or they think it is or should be. When you get in that win 1, lose 1 and those L-L-W-L-L-L-W-W-L-W-L-L type of sequences it gets to you. That 25-10 ride to get there is fun and then WHAM!! reality slaps you in the face (still better than George Michael slapping you).

    Guarantee I’m a more skilled player then you are. Had a 24-0 run in BR last year and went 114-13 in RS.

    Skill is not my problem. This game and how awful it’s programmed is my problem. Cannot tell you how many ridiculous bloop hits I’ve seen on swings that produce hits that are physically impossible given the pitch location and swing timing

    This game is straight garbage

    Yup. That is it exactly. When I saw that, I knew it wasn't going to be a fix. It's a little bit more of a deterrent, but not a fix.

    at one point i was 79-21 and thought i had a 20 foot dong

    you are a straight animal right on

    and you are right too this year is a joke - SDS has spent all their time coding for multiple systems and just left the game behind

    You better be careful. CDmoneymaker will be along shortly telling you what a baby you are and defending this year's cut n paste. He is the Master Defender and should be on SDS payroll.

    BTW I agree with you.

    The truth is that they want to, but they don't know how. They've been trying for years and never succeeded. So instead, they create this thing called PAR and then increase the PAR if you throw it up in the zone. They are trying to sell this as a means to combat the effectiveness of the sinker, but it doesn't do that at all. In my opinion, all this is just designed to try and take the attention away from the fact that they straight up don't know how to fix it without reprogramming the game entirely. Which we all know they haven't for god knows how long.

    That record is filthy. There's something y'all do special and I don't know what it is. The monitor? Internet speed? We need that secret sauce. Especially if you're leaving.

    Invested in a monitor back in 19, it does help but it’s not like buying one will automatically make you better. Still takes time and practice, but a monitor does help you turn on high velo fastballs and also makes other games play well if you play other games/genres

    Hardwired always with good internet specs even though this game still has freeze offs at a terrible and unacceptable rate

    Just practice practice practice. I play a causal online game on legend before hopping into any other RS, BR game or event game to make sure my eye is fresh and timing is on

    Good luck!
