    The dashboarding on HRs has to be penalized next year… it’s gotten ridiculous at this point

    Idk if it’s because it’s the end of the year but the last two days has been nothing but people quitting and deleting homeruns

    It’s totally unfair and needs to addressed 100% especially since the game relays on pxp missions to complete programs

    This is honestly one of the main things that needs to be addressed next year… you made a penalty for people that quit co-op games

    Make a penalty for people that dashboard… if their internet sucks and that’s why they get disconnected well so be it

    So isn't the hanging pitch that was aimed in the dirt, that hung, which allowed you to hit said HR. I'm not dashboarding you, I'm dashboarding the POS game. Sorry if the HR doesn't count.

    Seems to me that the game should be able to let the current play finish even if the opponent dashboards. Then announce the disconnect and exit out when it returns to the Pitcher/Batter screen.

    I can't see how they penalize because they have to be able to tell a intentional vs unintentional disconnect. And if your reply is that they should only penalize disconnects on HRs then I go back to my first point. If they know the hit is a HR before it lands then there is no reason not to let the play finish regardless or at least count the stats.

    My guess on the way it works from seeing it in action and logic tells me that they only calculate the outcome when the ball lands since there is the possibility on wall scrapers to actually rob a HR.

    What are you even talking about?

    I’ve never seen a video game with a player base so clueless about the sport they’re playing

    Pitchers miss spots all the time- what pitcher do you know irl that has perfect control? I’ll wait

    Capitalizing on mistakes is what makes a good hitter irl and in the video game

    So I should be punished bc I was able to hit a pitch? That literally makes zero sense

    Just let the home run land and quit like a normal adult

    Dashboarding is one of the most immature things in this game… thanks for letting me know you’re one of them

    There’s no way to stop dashboarding

    I’m saying that people who do it need to be penalized so that way it will be a deterrent from the action

    You dashboard/disconnect then there’s a cool down period of online play. First is 5 mins then increases- just like the co-op penalty

    But what would be wrong if they could just figure out how to let the play finish before the disconnect ended the game?

    I don’t think they can- obviously is a perfect world that would be the ideal solution

    I think if they could code it it would’ve been done already

    But I def know they can get implement penalties for quits/disconnects/dashboards since it’s already in co-op

    That needs to be carried over to single h2h online play- all modes(Br, events, ranked even casual lol)

    I typically will let it land....but not when I aim a fastball that I intentionally release late to assure the ball goes in the dirt and you get a random pitch that teleports...Why should you be the only one rewarded for the way the game plays?

    It's happened to me all year. If you can't beat em....join em'

    They can't implement a cool down penalty until they address freeze offs. Also, if you're that concerned about stats counting for mission completion; then complete missions by playing 'offline' modes. Unless you're referring to BR Missions.

    Also, dashboarding has been a thing since I started playing any title online since 2007...it's not going anywhere.

    Dude, that is a total d bag move. I am horrible online and I NEVER dashboard anyone. So if you got hosed by SDS, and I get lucky and hit a homer then I get punished because of it?

    Weak sauce. I never want to see you here complaining about being dashboarded by anyone else. Dashboarders deserve tobe put in their own special division with all the cheesers.

    I don't care about W-L, because I am not good enough to be worried about making CS or WS level. I just want the stats I get to count towards completing prestige.

    Don't hose over other players who did nothing to you when by your own post you are mad at SDS.

    No I don’t want to play “offline”

    And you literally get more points by completing missions online

    And the freeze off thing means nothing

    The mode that has the most freeze offs is co-op and they have a cool down penalty in that mode

    I’ve played about 40 ranked games this year and none of them ended in a freeze off

    My friend and I played co-op ranked two weeks ago and 2 out of the 3 games were freeze offs

    I understand the point you are trying to make, but I have had MANY games with Greg Maddux where I literally couldn't throw a pitch where I wanted to. It would be one thing if it was just once in a while, but it happens way too much.

    The "muh IRL" people think that just because something happens very rarely that it should be totally acceptable to have it happen many, many times.

    I had three straight games a while ago where I had players who literally swung at every single pitch. Even when I stopped throwing strikes. All three games my starter was at 55-60 pitches in the 9th inning and depending on how many runs I was ahead; diamond defenders would boot every play until the winning run came to the plate.

    All three times I threw strikes so far out of the zone they were at eyeball level, and all three were 500 foot bombs to win the game.

    That's not realistic, or "that's baseball" that's just blatant scripting a win for the other player. And yes, I have had several games where I couldn't touch a guy, only to be handed a free win due to AI shenanigans.

    So if you played a game and couldn’t hit a spot with your pitcher all game why don’t you just quit? Lol

    So by your own admission you’ll wait until your opponent hits a HR to dashboard and quit anyway?

    That’s bizarre

    There’s literally no logical explanation for dashboarding other than being a crybaby

    It’s the same ideology as the kid that kicks the basketball over the fence bc he has to go home for dinner and wants no one else to have fun

    No, I don't dashboard. I know first hand how much that sucks. Once the game has become obvious that nothing I do will have an impact on the game and I am doomed to a loss I move on, but I don't hose the guy out of a run. The play is over and then I leave.

    No sense wasting time on a game I have zero chance to win, watching my players stats go down while my opponent gets free BP off me.

    I have it happen to me multiple times a day. I move on to the next game. Do you really mean to tell me Greg Maddux, arguably the greatest control pitcher of his era just got lucky 75-80 times a night for 20 years?

    90 plus control pitchers should not have multiple games a day where NOTHING goes where it is aimed. I had one game where I said "fine, they want this guy to get a free homer, let's get it over with." I aimed it right down the middle, perfect release, and the pitch almost hit the batter in the shoulder.

    That's not just a pitcher who missed a spot on one pitch, that's a scripted outcome.

    Dashboarding sucked that year they had the prestige cards and you had to hit 75 online home runs with Mike Trout or whatever it was and people would literally dashboard every single time you hit one. With PXP I could care less , Ill earn that 40 pxp the next game when I strike out 5 times getting my rear handed to me by some goon
