Usually I forget a couple and give up for the month. Much easier to remember to check it within a three day span. Thanks!

I’ve got those….now I just need to put TTV in my name and everyone will tremble with fear.

@schwizzle_nizzle said in What did they do???!!!:

PPP has been nerfed like crazy. I'm playing on Rookie for the conquests and my pitches are barely off on timing and the ball misses my spot by a foot. SDS is just ruining this game (again) because of all the crybabies...

PPP was stupid the way it was all year. Anyone that can swing the bat a little will be happy with nerfing idiotic pinpoint. Takes 1000 times more skill to square it up on offense than to get correct input on PPP.

PPP just allowed bums to compete throwing dots on the corners where the pci couldn’t reach.

There is something in your life that is causing you to be a scumbag which festers itself into how you play video games. Takes a decent amount of anger, hatred and effort to be that annoying.

The 2K gameplay might be [censored] but at least the servers will be better even tho 2K servers sucks

2K is a predatory trash company. Say what you will about contact swing and late hits or the servers.....SDS is outstanding in comparison.

F 2K

So the supposed patch to fix what they didn’t want did nothing, and only limited players who just enjoy playing the game? Do I have that right?

It very obviously hasn't done "nothing", a whole one sold. There would be way more then that now. Just to be clear I'm very against the XP cap, but your comment is very clearly hyperbole

I don’t get why these guys are so obsessed with keeping track of every stub someone else makes. Just play the game.

F the yankees

You’re a child. Take your L like a man. These players that do that I assume have daddy issues…

if you have an annoying or racist team name / logo, or you cheese play bunt dance, or R2 spam - then you best know that i will either be

a) making you watch every replay on my HR's
b) definitely dashboarding any potential big run you may need if you go up a few too many for my comfort
c) ill make you wait between innings while i blaze and take a puff, enjoy my eventual W and have you feel it over time

Man there is a special place in hell for the people that habitually tap R2 a couple times perfectly spaced out to screw your timing up EVERY PITCH.

The same guys typically quick pitch as fast as possible so they certainly aren’t the innocent type that honestly want some extra time between pitches.

If you initiate or continue a long freeze off while losing a game of MLB The Show............nice life. Ill leave it at that.

@genopolanco_psn said in If you hit R2 Three Times Before EVERY PITCH…..:

Idk man my 2 year old nephew can be pretty annoying and I don’t think there’s any anger or hatred there. Could be wrong. But more likely than not it’s just a kid trying to get this exact reaction from you.

I don’t think there are many young children that have Trout, Robinson and Rivera and are around WS in rank. These are full grown miserable dbags.

@yankblan_psn said in Why can't I hit certain players:

That's why I've been using zone + analog with stride. Timing windows with buttons are too inconsistent from hitter to hitter.

I’ve been using that off and on lately also with good results. I switch back to button if I have a laggy connection and the sinkers are coming in too fast.

Really glad I sold my Delgado yesterday to get Trout haha.

Knew this price increase was possible but I figured 20-30 K and couldn’t wait to finally grab Trout.

@ibonafidescrub_ said in The foul ball coverage change is working as intended:

I just want to learn to foul off 12 pitches and then hit a homerun. Every time I have bad input the ball is put in play, if I have dead center pci with timing JE it goes foul.

Same here….last night I played some guy that was fouling off everything. Meanwhile if I was slightly off center pci or off on timing I felt like it was in play for an easy out. The guy still Ks 12 times to 4 for me and there was one particular swing that I made that was terrible….I believe very late and outside of the outer pci and it gets put into play for an out haha. I wasn’t mad, just in awe.

I’m really glad I don’t feel the need to complete and grind everything dropped. Seems very stressful for you all.

@chuckclc5755_xbl said in Exploit preventing pinch hitters.:

That's just trash man. Something's people do to try and get a virtual win is amazing. I was playing a guy and started my pitch sequence and realized his pitcher was up, and I had put up a few runs so I stepped off the mound to reset in case I had acted too quickly for him to PH. He didn't, but still, I would rather know I didn't cheese him.

I do the same thing actually haha. I wait like five seconds to make sure they didn’t forget to ph for their pitcher.

I also misspoke…you don’t need to have it connected to a PC. You can load eight mod packs or whatever they are called and be set.

First I have heard someone speak well of it. So it plays like if you are using a Power A control maybe? Just smooths out the PCI? Doesnt sound to handy to me as the PlayStation was always smooth anyways. And the Xbox with power A plays great.

I have a Power A and it’s much more beneficial than what a Power A does for hitting. But yeah, similar for pitching. Seems even easier to trace the pitches somehow. Like you would have to try to not make it green.

Hummm. Doesnt sound worth a hundred bucks. Maybe good for other games? Doesnt seem fun though. Except maybe playing around with it for a week, then return it lol.

You seemed relatively interested, so I figured I’d give you a few takeaways from testing it out for a couple days.

There is actually a tournament mode….supposedly gives you an extra frame advantage over those who are not using it.

I’d describe the anti-recoil aim assist as it takes away the flimsiness of the pci…for instance when aiming your pitch on the corner with the left stick it can be annoying to stop it on the exact corner. With the Cronus it just stays where you want it. It’s helpful while hitting, but not a crazy advantage. Kind of nice for pitching…not really an advantage.

I honestly think the biggest advantage is the hair trigger/rapid fire. In my opinion it changes the behavior of the button press for swinging quite a bit. Seems like you can get your swing off quicker and also check swing more easily. If you have played a check swing master they may have been using the Cronus or another back or controller mode for this function.

@foofencer_nsw said in Ranked Season crashes on Series X:

I don't play a lot of ranked. I'm currently 4-3, and all 3 of the losses were crashes on the lineup screen while loading into the game. Has this been an issue for anyone else? I play a ton of BR and event games and never really have that issue with them. The only thing I can think to do is delete and reinstall.

Just wanted to chip in that it happened to me and after four or five Ls I erased the game save content….not a full reinstall of the app and it worked.

@maurice91932_psn said in Exploit preventing pinch hitters.:

I had a guy do that to me to get the first strike but I was able to beat him to the pause button before the next pitch. Very weak sportsmanship for sure.

Yea that’s weak. I’ve had people do it for one pitch, but I can usually get the timeout/pause for the 2nd pitch.

The other day I had a similar “exploit” type play like this. 2 outs and I had a runner on second. Took ONE extra step lead. Opponent pauses and I know he’s going to bring a middle IF in tight to the bag so I start immediately pressing the D pad to step out. He comes out of the pause and is able to immediately throw to 2B and pick me off despite me trying to step out and send my runner back immediately. That was nonsense.

Missed your response because it brought me to the reply first. My bad…..luckily you don’t encounter too many crazy people out there.

@codywolfgang_xbl said in Exploit preventing pinch hitters.:

I was playing a top 50 guy IAMHARPER2 and I brought in Joc Pederson to face a righty.

He put in a lefty and paused the game. He immediately pitched after unpausing. He proceeded to do this the entire at bat and I could not pause the game. I even used the batter time animation on the dpad.

I’ll have to give an award to this guy for being the biggest tool I have ever played. I had no idea this exploit existed.

That’s weak. I’m a little confused though, how come you couldn’t pause (while he was paused)?

Quick menu…it was impossible to pause. It’s an exploit.
