I always look up my opponent’s profile while the game loads up and as soon as I seen he’s 92-5 with a game history showing no finished games along with his whopping .141 BA,a total of 14 runs scored and all 5 Ls being disconnects ITS OBVIOUS WHAT HES DOING! It’s ridiculous that people get away with freezing games! I’m guessing SDS dont know how to fix the issue so give us a reporting feature and/or moderate ya leaderboards and start laying the smacketh down with ya BAN HAMMER! Look at some of the dudes game history man,ITS OBVIOUS!

May be a strategy they use too. If my opponents team has a average to weak bullpen but a good to elite SP my goal becomes to drive the pitch count up because I play on Legend and good pitchers force a lot of outs even against good/perfect timings that’s perfectly squared up so I apply a few rules. No swinging at first pitches,only aggressively swing at edge pitches with 2 strikes because I trust my eye to not swing at dirt balls,high pitches,sliders breaking out the zone and etc when up 3-0 in the count im guaranteed to not swing at the next 2 pitches and before ya know it,pitch count is up. Sounds like he was pretty disciplined and trying to get ya pitch count up.

Exactly @HustlinOwl_PSN some people think they should swing at every strike meanwhile I’m watching meatballs past by if it’s a high tier pitcher. It’s a great strategy my guy,especially if ya play on Legend (maybe HoF too,idk how that plays) as I’m 23-0 right now and keeping tissues on standby because that first L is gonna hurt lol

Im 71-12 and a win away from the top 100 so of course I’d run into a freezer smh plus I stop my matchmaking bars minimum rating at 1750 so I get some good games. I’ll never understand why people do stuff like this in games smh he also had the gall to message me basically bragging about it

@ewogimia365_psn said in Currently in a ‘freeze’ off vs the rated ranked 4 guy..:

I know it's just a game but I'd still like put a fist in his nose for all of us. I'm just glad other people are seeing it and bothered by it bc I've been all over this for years. That's nice you got a W for once I waited 72 hours then decided I wanted to play so I gave in.

I would like to join you in doing so bro idc if it’s just a game,me along with millions of other people in this world are extremely competitive and their isn’t anything wrong with that. I recognize ya name,you’re always a top 20 player and do it legitimately so respect to you I’ve changed my name a couple times but I was a perennial top 50 player myself for years but I ended up going on a show hiatus after show 18 and just returned within the last month. I bought 19 & 20 but for whatever reason I just couldn’t really get into it,I actually blame the hiatus on the Orioles being so bad Anyways I’m hoping this doesn’t become such a reoccurring thing that I end up not wanting to play anymore which I honestly doubt will happen because I really do enjoy it regardless of the issues but I really hope they think of something to help us legit players fight this even if it’s just showing the gamer tag before starting a game so after they get ya once they won’t anymore.

Ahhhh thank you! that figures the astros have my favorite #4 rotation man,I’m tryna be one of the few people not using the yanks or dodgers

I 100% believe that @b00std_mark_II he’s been petrified ever since he signed Albert Belle to what was considered to be a big contract at the time 5yrs 65 mil then he only played 2 seasons of it then retired and Angelos still had to pay him

Has the Astros been fixed to where you can start pitchers NOT named Verlander!?! I’ve been playing this game for years and as a online rated guy only,IMO this is the funkiest bug I’ve encountered lol I don’t wanna run to LA/NY when I’m at the bottom of my rotation lol

As a lifelong Baltimore City resident that grew up in the hood right next to Camden yards/M&T Bank stadium …. Alll I have to say is I LOVE that Peter Angelos comment by @SaveFarris_PSN

@emtarheel_xbl said in Matchmaking issues, and 120hz output.:

So does Xbox have 120hz? My monitor is only displaying 60hz in the show while other games are displayed at 120hz. Everyone seems concerned with the ps5 patch and can’t really get any info on the Xbox side.

Im on PS5 but from what I’ve been told by people I know with both consoles,Xbox has had the 120 hZ option from the get go without a patch being needed and for what it’s worth,the Xbox VRR works better too for those who have compatible TVs/Monitors which isn’t many people if I go by the responses I get when I say I love the VRR update lol pretty hilarious that a game made by PS Studios is better on the competitions hardware and free with Gamepass. Welcome to 2022 folks

Is it still broke? I’m 20-0 right now playing only on legend but I’m down to the bottom of my rotation and frankly I rather ask then risking checking it myself and getting a tired Verlander lol I mean Verlander IMO is one of the easiest aces to hit as is and doesn’t need to be any easier lol appreciate whoever answers!

I wish it showed who your opponent was picking like the old days,I feel their would be more regular team games going on. Atleast I know I would straight bring out my O’s lol I play for fun but Also play to win cuz winning is fun lol I’m not trying to use the O’s against the top teams,people will be hitting very early HRs off our horrible pitching

And thank you again because I literally just got the game on Tuesday so you just saved me ALOT frustration lol
