I appreciate all the constructive comments, but we shouldn't have to work around bots. Yall are acting like this is a normal problem, "oh just post your order and wait 24 hours." Basically just accept the bots and move on. I dont want to do that. I instead would like sds remove the bots, ban the cheaters, and fix matchmaking.

Am I crazy to expect sds to enforce their own tos? Have we already accepted the bots as a thing moving forward? Becsuse if we have sds will gladly ignore this issue like they have with countless other problems.

It's less of working around bots and more of getting it for the price you want and not letting the bots force you to pay more.

It's that or I rage at the bots I don't feel like letting them win

Do I wish SDS would get off their lazy asses and do something? Absolutely. But I know that if it doesn't affect their bottom line (take the pack glitch for instance) I know that they will be in no rush to fix it so it's up to us to find ways around it.

I share your frustration and anger though, the list of issues is not short.

Glitched pitchers
Warped pitches
Bots on the market
Really really laggy screens
Modes that don't even work
Cheating online using bots

O and the servers that can't even hold up... I mean come on it's almost July.

The list goes on and on this year, and SDS should be embarrassed.

If the bots werent here life would be easier. Consider me nostalgic, but I prefer mlb the show minus the cheaters and bots, and I refuse to accept the [censored] poor product they rolled out this year. They can do better.

You still have to wait without bots. Orders, especially big priced orders, are rarely filled within seconds. Even with bots, I find that I usually have any order I place filled before I'm done playing a 3 inning game.

I said it on a different thread, but I'll say it here too. The bots are annoying, and they shouldn't be in the game. I won't deny that. But they're only as annoying as everyone here makes them sound if you're trying to buy a card and get it filled within 10 seconds. Patience is the key to the market.

This is the way I’ve been doing it lately. Unless you’re in FOMO, there’s no real reason to rush an order. Put it in and usually within 15-30 mins it’s filled. If not, then adjust if you want. I’ve had buy orders that didn’t fill for a few hours because I refused to play the bot game, but eventually you get it at the price you wanted. (This is during normal market conditions, when flash & stub sales are active, all rules go out the window)

Turned the game on and see that I could buy soto for 74k. Put my order in and immediately get one upped by a bot. This happened all the way up to 80k where the flip would no longer be profitable. So because of bots now I have to spend an extra 6k.

Then a buddy messaged me to ask if I wanted to play co-op!! Sure that sounds fun. This was 10 minutes ago and we are still sitting here staring at MIN 0 MAX 2500.

Fix the game sds, please.

Have patience with the orders, put yours in and leave it to do something else (do not play the bots game), it's been working for me lately at least. I put all my orders in before work and when I get off I check again. All of mine went through today
