The cpu needs to be adjusted for offline play. This has turned to garbage.

I normally play year round and have collected every card in the game since 21. A month in I have almost no motivation to play. So if a die hard like me is ready to bail after 4 weeks that should be very alarming to say the least.

Offline it does feel like the ball doesn’t travel as much but I am usually using lesser cards. Does feel like there is a little punishment for playing on lesser difficulties

Yeah it’s reaching a new low. Problems are adding up and I have a feeling people are and will continue to leave in droves.

Not fun to play is a great way to sum up the current state of the game.

You cant hit when you square up the ball online, pci shrinkage not just on sliders away, sinkers and change ups now, the cpu throws nothing but balls offline, all the bugs in the game all the cheeters now, all the cheese in this game. Etc etc etc

Here’s why… watching pitch after pitch out of the strike zone, never actually getting to hit is so boring. While I have typed this, I left the game running. Currently, playing the Campy storyline. I’ve had my head down typing this the whole time and I haven’t touched my controller, yet I just “worked” a 4-1 walk. It’s BS. It’s not fun never seeing anything to hit. It’s discouraging. “WeLcOmE tO bAsEbAlL”
“rEaLiSm”
It’s a game. The term “video game numbers” came from a place of fun… this is garbage.
