My guide to online bliss...
-
I cant stand when I play events against people who refuse to throw anythng in the zone. That whole point is to grind stats, you cant grind stats when people wont throw strikes. If someone refuse to throw antyhing in the zone I usually quit as that is going to a waste of time.
The strike zone thing is the worst
-
@nymets1987_PSN they'll throw strikes real quick if you learn to take the balls...or else they'll give up a kabillion runs, which is excellent for grinding
-
My problem with online is pitching. I have never been able to pich online. Too many pitches seem to warp down the middle if you even miss by a fraction. Easily the most infuriating thing when you struggle to hit and its made worse when you actually have a game when you seem to hit well.
-
@Nickc22_MLBTS this is exactly why they should have never gotten rid of the old format. Event wins should be needed for most rewards.
-
So I’m not very good at this game and I also sit around 500 and I’m playing events just for the rewards and I know I am not gonna win very many games but what frustrates me is when I’m losing because I just let up 8-9 runs with the same pitcher so I’m just hoping they give me a few back and then they change pitchers every 3 batters and they use all of their best pitchers against me. It dosent make very much sense
-
@NYYankees135078_XBL same here brother, annoys me too
-
Pitcher confidence is so big in this game - in a 3-inning game, theres no reason to leave a pitcher with low confidence in, ever
-
I just constantly feel my time is being wasted when playing online
It starts with people who let the opening scene play...this should not even be a thing, just like being able to replay HRs.
But if you arent hitting you generally arent progressing with any reasonable pace, and I don't hit well. My eyes simply can not pick up the pitches well enough to have the precise timing needed, so I foul off pitches on the edge of 'good' timing all game long.

I second this
And this is why 9 innings repeatable mission finally gave me a reason to play online

Bring back the online programs and fire the idiot or idiots over at sds who made the decision to remove them 2 years ago. Give the casuals something to play for.
-
In event. Dude was beating me 10-0 yesterday. My time to bat and he wouldn’t throw strikes. Seriously? You have to wonder about people at that point. 10-0!
-
Will they ban people for stat padding? I always do it if they request it, usually give them the win too since they need it more than me. I don't get that request every three event games though...more like every 30 if that.
-
@xRatedGProdigyx_PSN well, you get it a ton if you play the event RIGHT after multiplayer program drops - cause people are racing to get rewards and sell them. Not so much if you wait a couple days, then play

If they brought this back, I'd definitely play more online.
-
@Raiding__Fridges_PSN My man I had an event like that back in...May or early June- it happens. Sometimes you also just don't have the connection lottery on your side either ya know?

The timing windows being messed up and absolutely garbage certainly doesn't help. I've never had as much difficulty hitting as I have this year.
-
My guide to online bliss is use the cards I want to use and don't care about online record. I haven't cared about record for 3 years. Anyone remember I was like 250-250 last year. Of course not, no one cares.
