Dud,e that's cause the developers are looking and laughing at all the people complaining about the fielding being bad, which its totally fine....I've never seen an outfielder not play a ball properly. Or pitch speeds being too fast, which it should be a bit faster.
Nevermind good ol @joshjays44 he plays offline franchise only.
I'm a man that's why and I speak of the truth!!
I don't doubt that that is the truth for you. I'm only mentioning it because online play has a slew of glaring issues that offline play doesn't.
Something has changed under the hood for offline franchise play as well, and it made the game unplayable for a lot of people who have enjoyed this game for years.
As it stands I’d rather have someone read the phone book to me than play this game.

HAHAHA this is so funny to read when its obviously not true. We have had posts with all kinds of slurs stay up for days at a time. Collin maybe you read everything, but it doesn't matter if its a week or two later.
Thank you for the laugh tho

I read almost everything; I just don't give a shot.
Game still sucks. I'm back to playing 2020.

Y’all need to fix Ohtani. He needs to be listed as a 2way player not just SP. He should be Diamond regardless. 85 as a SP and 95 as OF/DH Live card should be 89 or 90 overall! In the running for MVP yet his live card is 80 overall? C’mon man. Don’t discriminate on da man cause he’s from Japan! Diamond

I just wanna know their secret. In fact most might wanna know just in case we are ever horrible or incompetent at our job year after year. How do they manage to still have one? Its crazy and we all need to know how they do it. Cheers to you guys who take our money each year with no accountability or a chance for a refund for a game that was literally unplayable for weeks. Server Errors, a broken double XP weekend and shotty gameplay all supposed to be forgotten with that bribe bundle. What this company needs is competition. We as gamers need choices. Im tired of developers having the exclusive rights to sports games. I want to be able to choose which I go with. SDS, EA, etc can dial it in and be half assed every year cos they know we will buy it and we have no choice if we want Football or Baseball games.

The devs that "interact" with the community are a joke and that's being generous. It is what it is. No real change will occur even if the community pushes for it. They should want to interact with the good portion of the the community. I understand not everyone deserves their time with certain troll posts, but at least a 1/3 of the legit questions and posts could VERY quickly be answered by a dev. Each year has gotten worse too.

If I were a dev I'd stay as far away from these forums as possible.

Why would a devs job be interacting with people? Maybe you don't know what dev is short for I guess. Honestly those are usually the worst people to interact with others

So there aren't devs that are community managers?? Im not saying every developer is tasked with working with the community but some are. Or maybe I'm just too dumb ya know

I would just imagine they are separate jobs. But who knows

You're probably right.. When I say devs I actually mean the employees that interact with us on here and other social media. I've just heard them refer to them as devs on stream but maybe they are just community managers. I wouldn't expect a game developer/ coder to give any of us the time of day. Thats def not their job lol. Either way, thats who I am referring to.
-
Similar to "content creators", they should vet and assign a community manager in an unpaid capacity to assist with stuff.
Almost every game I've been involved with over the last 25 years has done just that.

@ryno697 said in Lack of Developers in the Forum:
With all the complaints going around the forums, whether it be hitting, pitching, fielding, etc., you never see a single community manager, moderator, or developer commenting on any thread. Even if it's a simple question that a developer could answer, you never see one.
I just don't understand how on their own community forums, we are all left to complain within ourselves. I understand chances are they look at the forum and certain threads, but i remember last year and especially in 18, you would see threads with developers commenting all the time, even if it was mostly Victor or Colin. Is the toxicity that drove them away? Toxicity of complaints would not be such a problem if they actually were transparent enough to tell us things outside of twitter.
Thoughts?Well, most of the complaints are garbage...it would potentially be good to have a moderator to remove the garbage posts...but then there will be complaints about censorship or whatever, and it'll be the same thing with a different name.
Then, when they do post, people get pretty pissed at them, so the toxicity would go on. I've never had an issue getting response from them when I really need one, such as purchase issues or something, but if they're getting the 1000th email telling them that their game sucks when it clearly does not, then there's nothing they can really do. The player base needs to take responsibility and stop crying so much (obviously not everyone, but there are players who seem to get on every post to express their misguided disdain).
its called thick skin of customer service. Everyone who complains here, has paid for the game at least 60 dollars. So, they are entitled to be heard, and complain, no matter how baseless the complain or argument may be. Their JOB is offer a response and/or some sort of satisfaction to ease their customer bad mood, frustration and any other. No one should be disrespected for offering a response to a complain, don't get me wrong, but precisely to avoid further confrontation or baseless, fruitless discussions, they need to have thicker skin, respond politely and truthfully, (not a random scripted response that shows no actual interest or listening of the complain) and mitigate the conflict. To fight, you need at least 2.

I read almost everything.
Then why don't you fix the hitting? Why does H2H gameplay reward bad swings and penalize good ones? Here and there is acceptable, but it occurs 75% of the time.
There are plenty of chances per AB to justify an out, not leaving the user feeling cheated by his input. 90% of foul balls in this game are terrible swings and could easily be switched to penalize.
Enough people complain about the poor contact results. It's not like you don't have the ability or is so complex of a task.
Adjust the sliders on the foul balls to be decreased and increase the solid human hits. It's literally that simple.
