Disconnects
-
I’ll start by saying I’ve never complained on these forums. With that being said, I’m about to.
Completed all but 2 squares before my first stadium challenge. I’m feeling pretty good about myself as I’ve only failed 2 challenges thus far. I get stuck in a loading screen with a cupcake pitching challenge. I have to restart the game & it’s a loss. I’m disappointed but still feeling very good about my chances.
I foolishly decide that an 81% chance at Gary Sheffield on hall of fame is good enough. Win 3-0, congrats-here’s your “Ballin is a habit” pack. Disappointment is building. Hey, I get it, 81% isn’t 100%, but that percentage should’ve been even higher if I didn’t get robbed in that challenge a game ago.
Across the board I go to the other stadium challenge. I’m not making that mistake again. Legend difficulty for a 96% chance at [censored] Allen. Bottom 3, 2 outs. I have a 2-0 lead. “DISCONNECTED”. Hour+ spent, 0 cards.
I’ve quietly been a defender of this game, because I love baseball & I enjoy the grind, but I can’t remember ever playing ANY game that I’ve restarted even a quarter the amount of times that I have this version of THIS game. I also cant think of another game where I would complain about fluidity of MAIN MENUS. How do you take this far back of a step with a game that’s been around so long?

This just happened to me. I went through the entire diamond quest with only one loss ( The loss came when the game shut down because of an error. I'm willing to blame the Nintendo switch for this one because it wasn't a network error or disconnect but still frustrating) when I finally made it to the boss, I was up three to nothing in the bottom of the third inning and it disconnected from the game without any network loss. This is so frustrating because diamond quest can be fun but for the most part is just good for getting players or packs they are moments so you are not acquiring much stat growth/ parallel advancement. I can get behind shutdowns because of server instability and I understand the risks but how in the hell is there not some kind of safeguard in place? Maybe allow for one disconnect? And be required to complete on the highest difficulty if there is a disconnect. Maybe get three tries at the stadium challenge with each loss/disconnect decreasing your chance at the main prize. Something, anything? It's so frustrating that this game has the same problems year and year out and I'm just about done because the frustration is becoming greater than they enjoyment.

Same happened to me a few days ago. I was about to win and got disconnected...because THE SERVER was being updated. I was so frustrated, I had to go and spend time with my wife....ugh...;-). But, seriously...there should be a different penalty for "logging off" during gameplay than wiping the entire slate clean.
