This game is so bad right now
-
I havent played in several days, maybe closer to a week, decided to come back and give it another try. Spent half my stubs (due in part to really already being disinterested in the game, why bother saving?) on a few high priced reds to help me with the elly program, games the same.
Opponents gold or below fielders are all prime HOF gold glovers, my diamonds or p5 high level golds all have to dive to have a chance at even stopping the ball, let alone get an out. Wheres all the cool seamless rocket arm cross body animations the cpus fielders get?
Pitchers still throw ball after ball after ball or perfectly dot corners.
The experience vs the cpu is almost unusable and truly feels like the cpu is cheating. Far from fun. Smh so disappointing.

The one thing that I've noticed is the CPU's patience on pitches. I've put an incredible number of pitches JUST outside the zone that they take. The discipline of even the worst teams/cards is crazy to me.

It does feel like ratings have no purpose for CPU teams. I think they’ve developed some logic and “scripts” for every difficulty. From my experience in Rookie, the pitchers will almost always start the at bat by throwing 2 balls at least 6 inches out of the zone and if you are patient you’ll be rewarded with some very hittable pitches.
Fielding annoys me the most because bronze level fielders with 30-40 ratings in reaction and fielding are constantly diving around robbing me of hits. Meanwhile my gold to diamond level fielders are much slower to react and watch balls roll by.
