Over the past week, I've been seeing server disconnect messages while playing MTO (to get the points for TA). It doesn't affect MTO because it is offline, so I didn't pay attention to when they were happening.
Today, I begin the TA S1 ALE program and begin a CPU game with all of the cards I've accumulated because of other modes I've played. I get into the 7th inning. Ohtani has his 12 Ks and I put in Gonzales to begin working on his 600. He throws a few pitches and the next thing I know, I'm disconnected from the server. Nothing saved - no progress whatsoever.
I have great Xfinity internet, but sometimes it becomes unstable when lines are being worked on nearby. I know this wouldn't happen if I lived in the city...everything would be underground. Or, maybe it's because I don't have a dedicated IP address set for my XBox...maybe I should do that.
GRRRRRRRRR...sometimes living in the mountains sucks.
Sorry for the rant...I just had to yell at something.
That sucks but I bet it’s beautiful where you live.
Well, yeah...it is. I can't deny that being able to stare out at pine trees while playing The Show isn't awesome, because it is. I just have to take a deep breath and go on with the game
I’m in the suburbs in Connecticut. Outside my window are my annoying neighbors I avoid at all cost until my girlfriend forces me to be social.
I get that! Another blessing of being amongst the wildlife and trees...no neighbors, and I can be a hermit until my wife makes me run errands in the city.
I sold my business back during COVID so I get to spend my days playing the show. When she retires we plan on something more rural.
It's so worth it. I retired so my wife could live where there are seasons (we used to live in SoCal). I miss being close to the beach, but mountain life is awesome.
Dodger fan? I’m a Dodger fan out in the middle of Yankee / Red Sox land.
Yow! That must be rough. Almost as rough as being a Dodger fan among all these Giants fans LOL. It's bred in me to not like the Giants. I can endure the River Cats (Giants AAA) but that is about it.
I'm actually an Angels/Twins fan (long story). I used to be a Dodger fan back in the Lasorda days...since then, it became too frustrating to root for them (and that is saying something being an Angels and Twins fan - triple LOL). One of my prized possessions is a Vin Scully signed baseball. I was lucky enough to see him after a game one night and he signed it for me.

I got it from my dad who was a die hard Brooklyn Dodgers fan so for me it was hating the Yankees as much as the Giants. Color me jealous in the Scully baseball. I had a cat named Vin as a kid.
You must really want Rod Carew in the game being an Angels/Twins fan. That is not as weird as me being a kid and my favorite player was Will Clark. I guess I didn’t realize I was suppose to hate him.
-
Will Clark???? He was an outstanding player! We all have our vices LOL.
Carew, Torii, Baylor, Winfield...there are a lot of cross-overs.

OH Man - that is funny. The only thing I can yell at to get off my lawn is wildlife - and I want them to eat the vegetation to keep it down (unless it's a bear or cougar that decides to bed down...then I might yell at it). If I lived in the city, though...

C'mon - admit it. You're not so much a Giants fan as you are a fan of some of the players who were on the Giants. You know which of those guys I like too...but I only whisper it in the dark recesses of the 'net

I’m a Dodgers fan who was clueless to the rivalry other than Yankee hatred my dad instilled in me. I grew up loving Will Clark and love wearing my 1989 WS Clark jersey even though I actually know we are rivals know.

Why MTO? Why not Mini Seasons? At least with Mini Seasons you get vouchers that can be used on either division. With MTO; you're locked to the division that team is in.
-
With MTO you get points for both Season 1 and 2 at the same time for the division your team is in. You only play 2-4 innings (and unlike a 3 inning game, you don't have to worry about the pitcher's strength. If you play locked as a pitcher, then you pitch 9 innings or a fielder, you play when they would play - like in RTTS). You only play about 1/4 of the season (except for the postseason, you play 2-4 innings of those games) the rest of the games are simmed. You choose your difficulty level, the harder the difficulty, the more points you get - so, if you want to play on legend, you can get up to 97,500 points for a 150k point program. And, you play with Franchise cards (not DD).
1/4 of the games may be too liberal of a guess too. I had 6 games simmed at once one time.
It really comes down to how much you want to play and what you enjoy more. For me, MTO outweighs Mini-Seasons.
