And yes, i do have plenty of grinding methods. The game has come a long way since the days when offline had play vs cpu, one conquest map and that was pretty much it for the whole year.

@rubicante23_PSN they dont want to get better at the game bro. They would rather play vs the cpu, throw two high fastballs and a slider away all day to get strikeouts. Sounds fun. Offline players should absolutely not get the same rewards as online players. 100 percent. They still have ample grinding methods anyway that are good.

I don't really care who gets what rewards but as someone who was a "online" guy... The cheating, bunt dancing, slide stepping, excessive stealing, constant pausing, etc. It makes playing online simply not fun or worthwhile anymore.

I typically play until about finest then kind've lose interest. Playing mostly offline this year I feel like it aleady feels like finest time where I'm just kind've bored and no incentive to deal with the fuckery online

But I'd love to not get lag and deal with online silliness...and still play a human-type player

I take umbrage with that, because i can throw any pitch for a strikeout, lol. 'Mr. Splitty,' 'Uncle Charlie,' 'Slide-piece,' 'Presto change-o,' 'Sweepie floor' - for a sweeper, lol.
I'm older. I don't have any need to play sweaty games vs. a human. I like to score runs and have fun. I started playing sports games way before online, so i definitely get my fix.
I do agree with the rewards, 100%, though.
One person's ceiling is another person's floor, so please don't act like offline isn't fun and satisfying.
