Just fyi, whenever I'm batting in the Show and my wife is talking to me, I can't concentrate.
-
I'm playing the Justin Turner POTM moment for 6 TB in a game. And my wife comes downstairs, starts talking to me and for several attempts I keep screwing up. Finally I get frustrated and ask her to leave, "I can't concentrate with you talking to me."
-
Now I'm at the point where on my latest attempt I hit a double and need 4 more TB to finish. Just as she is exiting he room completely I hit a deep fly that looks like it'll be a wall-scraper and I start yelling "Get outta here! Get outta here!"
-
My wife yells back "F**K you!"
-
The ball clears the wall! Homerun!! Mission Complete!! And I start yelling "Finally!!!"
-
My wife now half-way up the stairs yells again "Go F**k yourself!!" Not realizing I've been talking to the TV.
-
I laugh so hard because it was perfect timing the way it unfolded. I laugh as I tell her, "I was talking to the TV!" LOL LOL

Different hitters, pci lined up same way, and completely different results: one a laser grounder and the other a shallow fly ball. Wtf??
Last year's DD was ADDICTING and the BEST it ever was!! It was fun, engaging and worth the grind all year. As a developer you build on what you create, not remove and replace.
This year, a few observations that have made DD take a step back in my opinion and I hope SDS is reading:
-
What happened to the Inning Moments? Where are the moments we played that focused on the careers of the 3 "Bosses"? The Day in History, Boss Battles, etc that earned PROGRAM stars?
-
Is Showdown essential for having a shot at 300 Stars to get a Boss? If so, that is a crock! It's fun as an alternative to more program stars, since it goes to 1000 now versus like 600 last year.
-
Update 1.04 today that made adjusted the hitting difficulty just RUINED IT! The hitting PCI in veteran looks like All-Star size. The results are inconsistent: 2 batter, same PCI locate where the ball was hit and 2 completely different results: laser grounder through the infield and other a fly ball to shallow right field. The hitting was CONSISTENT in the results prior to this. PLEASE UNWIND THE 1.04 UPDATE!!

It seems they are forcing you to spend stubs to get deep in the program stars for the Inning Programs. This isn't right! What, SDS didn't make enough money last year??
So far, I'm disappointed. What does everyone else think?
Thanks.
Request to "XP REWARD PATH" screen:
Please when we select this screen automatically have it load to the last level we redeemed/what current level we're at. It's really annoying swiping right for 5+ second every time when you're in Gold and Diamond level.
Should be as easy fix for SDS.
The one thing in Diamond dynasty this year that I wish would change and for next year is alternatives to online play for program stars in the Inning programs.
Example: if there's up to 300 possible program stars you can earn through online playing, have an alternative for non online users. Make like extra missions like stat accumulating like in the 11th inning.
I dont feel it's fair to force people to play online to enjoy all possible rewards.
Anyone else agree and feel this is a reasonable change for 2020?
@GradektheBard said in DD has taken a step back this year and here's why...SDS PLEASE READ!:
The patched hitting in 1.04 is garbage. No one was asking them to make hitting harder (other than to make pitching more accurate). This patch has made showdown virtually unplayable for average players. Once again, hitting is great at launch and sds mucks it up.
ABSOLUTELY! We go through this every year. It's great then they screwed it up, then they fix it a few "updates" later even though it was fine the 1st time.
Without real baseball going on, SDS is going to have to do a better job coming up with more content to keep us busy. More moments, missions, this day in history e.t.c.
The latest player program Kerry Wood took less than 2hrs... 6 missions or so and then a 9 inning game vs the Cubs.
Pick up the pace SDS. We're going to need more substance without real life baseball.
After yesterday's 1.06 patch that eliminated the runner window if auto fielding was on, I immediately made a post about how ridiculous this was.
With the outpouring of replies and complaints, it's obvious SDS was reading and undid it with today's 1.07 update. That was fast!!
Thanks to all who made your voice heard on that one!!
Based on your performance in the player showcase, have that actually affect what round you're drafted in. Don't have it pre-set. Seems like you can load your RTTS 10x and the same team will keep drafting you. As a SP, your player should automatically respond to balls hit behind him and at least turn around to watch the play instead of just staring at the catcher.
"Lead Runner Window will no longer display if the fielder or runner settings are set to "Auto".
So we have no idea who's where and which runners are advancing or taking an extra base?? Wtf!?!?!? We're being penalized over a personal preference??
Sds really thought this was of higher importance over other needed tweaks??

Hey everyone, in RTTS I use analog baserunning and so far every time my guy slides, he goes headfirst straight in. No matter which way I point the analog stick he does the same thing. Any help or suggestions? These settings work fine in DD. Not sure what the problem is in RTTS.

Hey everyone, I use a PS5 and need help stealing bases. My problem: GETTING GREAT JUMPS!"
I'll hit L2 and feel the vibration to send my runner, then I'll hit R1 to take another step lead. However, I can't figure out how to consistently get good jumps.
Advice please...

This morning I was competing the May MA moments and at 657 am began the final moment, Rafael Devers 6 TB. First AB I hit a HR, then third at bat, at 659 am I hit a double.
Soon as I exited the game and reached the post game screen and everything recorded, 700 am. Wow, only seconds to go, I beat the buzzer!!
Maintenance countdown?
Yes

Hey everyone, all last year I played DD on HOF. This year the same but I feel like offense is definitely less this year. Anyone else notice maybe some tweaking SDS did to lower offense?
In an earlier update this year, SDS supposedly fixed the inconsistencies of pitcher stamina out of the bullpen. It still isn't fixed. In the pen, every pitcher has about 70% stamina and GREEN. Now they still come out with 50% or less with stamina already YELLOW.
Example:
-
Hader comes into the game and his Stamina is YELLOW. After 10 pitches. He's in the RED.
-
Henke comes into the game and after 17 pitches, he's still in the YELLOW.
Please SDS fix this already!
Has SDS said anything about updating Oriole Park's new dimensions soon?
