youre all nuts.

DEGROM. period.

You people are total buffoons. The reason the servers are failing is because they weren’t tested. The reason they weren’t tested is because they don’t care. They care about diamond dynasty. They care about selling you stubs. Those features always work. When there was an exploit last year to get XP they fix that in a matter of days.

day after day...complaints about the servers. asking for accountability from SDS. you dont get it yet?

why do you think year after year after year..
-same EXACT graphics
-same music
-same announcers
-same EVERYTHING

except......Diamond Dynasty.

they dont have the manpower to do any of it. they arent some huge group that can throw resources where ever they want. they are given X budget. they have to fill staff and keep the lights on etc. that budget you can bet your [censored] is PEANUTS. its just enough to churn out carbon copy, year after year and everyone comes running back to play the card game that generates millions of dollars and cost them NOTHING to produce except the new card art fire. they are focused on as much money in and as little money out. this model sustains them and now they gave the game away on xbox. why? like a drug dealer. have this one for free, the next one will cost you. they arent dumb. the powers that be said, lets double our income sources and churn out the same game every year. and why shouldnt they?

they want your money and you handed it over. now you want them to be accountable? SDS doesnt work that way. they will always give the bare minimum to keep the players spending money on stubs. they dont care about RTTS or Franchise. they put a new feature on it and call it a day.

year in year out, the only thing that changes is the way they take your money. packs used to be cheaper. the way you accumulated stubs used to be faster. the more we play the more the slow roll us....

He is awesome for me

Why is his price so low in a very bullish market? any card with value is maintaining price like I have never seen. here we have an above average pitcher with amazing hitting stats. 92 power?? how is he not 80, 90K???

people are missing out on him, he is an animal at the plate and has great control with tons of movement on his pitches. what's not to love?

i use heyward all the time. he murders righties. speak for yourself OP.

banks is dog poopie. Cal has been very good for me. i dont know what these fools be smoking. puff puff pass already. geesh.

so, to be serious. i love cal. i hate banks. most people struggle with their swings, the question is, which one do you struggle least with?

if you want a real good SS, get Jazz or Gimenez. both of these are lights out defensive and awesome hitters. Jazz is a poor mans monthly awards Didi.

ahh thanks

Can someone tell me why the HR derby Cano went up and then crashed overnight by 35K stubs and hasn't recovered?

I do not understand what is going on with the market right now.

easy. HELL NO. people get stupid when a player they haven't had in a while is available. plenty of cards that are better. he isn't worth more than 50K stubs to me personally.

They’re on the schedule, so I don’t know why they wouldn’t be.

Video game content should take a back seat to world events at times...

I completely disagree. While they are on a small scale, video games are here as an escape from reality. Shutting down methods of relaxation for people, when irl everything is this stressful, just contributes to the sense of stress.

I would argue that people have been escaping this particular reality for far too long.

another victim of identity politics.....

Decided to jump in some ranked today and 2 games in a row I play the most salty, toxic and miserable people in the community it seems.
Yes, I declined your friendly quit offer. You're looking for a game to play, so play.

Both these guys made it their mission to make my life miserable for declining the friendly quit. Taking minutes to wind up between pitches, pausing for a minute and a half every inning, stepping off, throwing over to first base 5 times in a row while I don't even take a lead. I don't know if these shenanigans ever work out for anyone, but if anything it only gets me juiced up to absolutely obliterate you. I honestly don't understand why people are so toxic, salty and miserable. Just play the darn game man. Such a turn off to play like this every single game.

i totally agree, BUT, when someone offers a FQ before a pitch is thrown, just take it or else this is what you end up. whats so hard about looking for a new game? it takes 41 seconds.

I strongly disagree and hate this mindset. You don't hold the power to make my decisions, I do. If you're gonna act like a toxic toddler as a result then you need some serious self reflection.

You miss my point. I agree with you. What im saying is, its easier and less stressful to take the FQ than it is to endure 9 innings of bunt dancing and pauses. Ive learned to take the dam FQ abd save myself the aggravation.

I understood your suggestion and the logic behind it just fine, and if that works for you then I applaud you and you should keep doing it if that makes the game more enjoyable and less stressful for you.
To me however, giving in to these low lifes by giving them what they want "OR ELSE", you know I just can't and won't and never will. It feels like they're trying to bully their way to get what they want. I'll never allow that to happen, I'd rather sit through 15 innings of aggravation than give them what they want. Giving into their demands feels like a massive L to me and probably a giant W to them while surely after a game filled with toxic nonsense and taking a fat L, they can't be too pleased with themselves. That's the only way to make it stop.

well again i agree. in life i wouldn't allow it. but, i play video games to escape the BS that i have to fight in life. when i sit down to play a video game i just want enjoyment. this game robs us of that through the RNG and horrid fielding as it is, I don't want to add to it with these imbeciles. if someone is acting like that, they are immature jerks and me enduring it and even handing them an L won't deter them from doing it again. they've been doing it for the last 5 years. I'm just at a point in my life where i choose my battles more thoughtfully. standing up to an idiot on ps4 games is not my idea of nobility or pride. the moment i realize im dealing with a moron, IRL or on this game, i move on and save myself the high blood pressure. that's all.

I mean... both teams are playing in the same altitude. Just because his hits were homers and yours weren’t, you can’t blame the park.

Also it’s called mercy rule.

Wow...this guy has not played baseball in real life.

Get the heck out of here with that comment. It's called "run ruled", every real baseball tournament it's called that. It shows you and SDS has no clue of baseball.

He was in the band... right tuba

Again, it’s called mercy rule. There’s literally nothing called “run rule”.

Rarely do you see such prime examples of Dunning-Kruger.

here ya go mr know it all. wipe that egg off.

NOTE: Beginning with the 2018 Little League season, a 15-run rule option was implemented. Following the same intent as the “10-run rule” the language in rule 4.10 (e) now also states that a local league my chose to implement a 15-run rule after three [four innings for Intermediate (50-70) Division/Junior/Senior League]. This rule (Tournament Rule 12) is mandatory during the International Tournament.

Little League rule 4.10(e), more commonly referred to as the “10-run rule,” was written to establish an accepted way for leagues to end games if the conventional means of recording outs proves to be a challenge. According to Little League’s Official Regulations, Playing Rules and Policies, rule 4.10 (e) states:

If after three (3) innings [Intermediate (50-70) Division/Junior/Senior League: four innings], two and one-half innings [Intermediate (50-70) Division/Junior/Senior League: three and one-half innings] if the home team is ahead, one team has a lead of fifteen (15) runs or more, the manager of the team with the least runs shall concede the victory to the opponent. If after four (4) innings [Intermediate (50/70) Division/Junior/Senior League: five innings], three and one-half innings [Intermediate (50/70) Division/Junior/Senior League: four and one-half innings] if the home team is ahead, one team has a lead of ten (10) runs or more, the manager of the team with the least runs shall concede the victory to the opponent. NOTE: (1) If the visiting team has a lead of fifteen (15) or ten (10) runs or more respectively, the home team must bat in its half of the inning. (2) The local league may adopt the option of not utilizing this rule.

Totally my bad, I didn’t know you guys were playing little league. Probably why you’re complaining about losing so much...

um. of course it applies to non professional ball. did you think it applied to college and MLB????? dont be a fool. the fact is, you said there is no such thing. its ok to be wrong. it won't kill you to admit defeat.

Considering the fact that this a forum for an MLB game... there is still no such thing.

Thanks for the irrelevant lesson and paragraphs that no one probably read though.

i didn't post it for anyone but you and you read it. so, it worked huh?

you just got run ruled.

Nah, I saw the words “minor league” and made a comment about that.

nope. wrong again. you said little league. it specifically mentions little league in it. not minors.

you've been run ruled 3 times straight jack.

next!

geesh. wow. ok so lets recap.

YOU called it a mercery rule and when some called it a run rule you said there is literally nothing named run rule that exists.

then i point out that in tournaments and non professional situations, that's exactly what it is called. a run rule.

then you said "Considering the fact that this a forum for an MLB game... there is still no such thing"

YOU said its called mercy rule. so since we are in an MLB forum, can YOU tell me where in MLB this "mercy rule" is used?

It’s not, and that’s the point. It’s a general game term here, not a baseball term. It’s specifically called a mercy rule.

hold up jack.

you said, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A RUN RULE. IT LITERALLY DOES NOT EXSIST.

except it does. so once again,

you've been run ruled.

next!
