Why am I being matched with people in Mexico and the West coast if I live in Boston
-
It’s unbearable coming across this constantly
-
Are you getting lagging problems because of it? Maybe I'm only getting matched up in my area , but I've experienced less freezing and lag compared to last year . But yeah if it's a problem they should fox it.
-
It’s always a match I notice some funny business going on right away and they are host. They take forever to start while they are probably locking down my IP to pull whatever they are doing

Seriously what type of matchmaking are we dealing with here if my opponents are a 6+ hour plane ride from my location. Does SDS have any plans to fix this nonsense or is it more of the game is playing as intended garbage. Plus the Xbox PC players are pulling all sorts of network manipulation and using the pci on the mouse can we at least get the game off the cloud on Xbox for real.
Are you using a VPN?
-
No vpn it’s crazy every other game is someone super far away and they’re hosting
-
I keep playing teams with WBC Japan jerseys. How am I matching up with Kyoto when I am in Arizona?
-
There are 2 reasons I can come up with for this happening, and they're both not very flattering for SDS buy very likely nonetheless:
- Their (prehistoric) networking infrastructure doesn't prioritize connection quality or location
- If it does in fact prioritize connection quality and location, then the simple conclusion would be that there aren't many people left playing this game online, or you wouldn't be connecting to someone so far away.
-
probably has like 100 players online playing rank lmfao this game Is dead.

I'd say player pool is just completely depleted.
- Two way pitcher glitch not being fixed for two weeks now with no plans in sight/communication from development team on wtf is going on
- No reason to grind for 900+ rating when everyone can achieve WS rewards by just playing and losing
- Gameplay hasn't been tweaked/updated AT ALL since launch.
It's obvious people are giving up, hell even the Devs have clearly given up based on the way they are handling everything. Hopefully the MLB license renewal goes in favor of 2k next time around.

As much as I dislike 2K's business model, their games are high quality.

I play from UK. I nearly always get matched up with east cost or Caribbean players. Occasionally a European!
I don’t think location is the issue. Maybe playing at peak time is the problem with the SDS servers. Aware it’s p2p but I have zero lag problems. None.
(Majority of my games are played between 5am-5pm ET)

Nobody here honestly believes that unless your internet is horrible at which point the lag wouldn’t be affecting you which is most likely the scenario

MLB 2K was awesome bozo. I would pick 2k over the show any day of week. At least 2k fixes their [censored].

Why can't you just let people have their own opinions? God you're so obnoxious all the time.

No competition is bad for sports games look at Madden. They’ve become totally complacent with this game. I mean no gameplay updates in 3 months is either negligent or lazy. The online rewards bad swings far more often than good swings than it should still. We aren’t getting any network or gameplay fixes just diamond duo packs.

I still havent figured how to find out where my opponent is playing from. Unless I message them. And that aint happening.

You have to message them unless they have social media attached to their profile that says where they live. Most people will respond if you mention the area you’re from first.
