This year the difficulty when playing CPU teams is off the charts. I’ve been playing on rookie through mini-seasons and am lucky if I get 2 hits a game and I was a pre-order so I’ve been playing for over a week now. The difficulty is especially horrendous on older players like myself. My eyesight and reaction times aren’t what they were 20+ years ago. I tried some RS games and the catcher already had the ball by the time I even saw it lol. Needless to say, I’m primarily a Conquest and this year a Mini-Seasons player, but at this rate, they’ll risk losing an entire generation of gamers because of stuff like this.

Definitely not purchasing any special editions anymore as this has been a yearly thing for the past 5-6 years. I’ll wait until June from now on and see how things are going at that point. There’s other games to play that work properly.

@needmoresleep_mlbts said in CPU difficulty is insane:

I'm having the same issue. In addition it seems like the CPU keeps trying to pick you off until they're successful. I'm not sure if I'll be doing any of the all-star level stuff. Too frustrating. I play to relax, not get pissed off at the TV

Same here. I just like to enjoy playing and relaxing. But with these current difficulty settings, I fear I could have a complete lineup of end of year cards and not do any better. But then again, I’m 43 so maybe this is SDS’s way of telling me I’m too old and it’s time to put down the controller lol

Yeah the difficulty is especially horrendous on older players like myself. My eyesight and reaction times aren’t what they were 20+ years ago.

4th or 5th pitch......I had 3 before one of them disappeared and I only have 2!!! I’d love to have 3 lol

I threw a 9.2 inning perfect game and lost on a strikeout in the dirt when 98 Realmuto threw the ball over the 1Bs head into RF…….so take you “bloops” and gtfo lol

Didn’t we all?

I just played my first game post patch and when hitting to the outfield especially line drives, the animations show base hit and the ball rolling on the ground and the announcers are commenting that it’s a base hit......BUT in reality it was caught for an out. This is very troublesome if you have men on base and start advancing them due to everything pointing towards a base hit only to get tossed out at their original base. Anybody else experience this issue?

Currently my rotation is:

99 CY Kluber (no sell)
98 SS Newhouser (no sell)
97 CY Young Grienke (sellable)
97 Future Stars May (sellable)
93 Prime Oswalt (no sell)

I have 128k stubs currently. I do have another 345k tied up in market for MVP Henderson if someone would sell him lol

PS: I’m just a casual player, but would like to play more RS

I only ever use pulse.

Ok, I’m a 41 year old disabled veteran with severe anxiety and playing this game is a good way to keep my mind off things. The problem is I can’t hit to save my life. I probably average 18 strikeouts a game. If I get more than 2-3 hits a game it’s a “good” game. I also have trouble seeing the ball and am extremely late on FBs and extremely early on off-speed pitches. Here are my settings.....please help with recommendations for changes and simple strategy for batting. Thank you

Hitting view: Strike Zone 2
Hitting Interface: Zone
PCI: Off (PCI was making it even harder to see ball, but maybe there’s adjustments to be made for its settings?)

Where do I find my daily missions?

You can quit being a douche bag anytime now.

I’m using his ASG 99 at 3B and he’s been great defensively so far. I have Eddie Murray at 1B. But still needing work on Vlad’s swing.

Just saying. Just lost to some horrible player I hit 7 to the warning track and in the 9th inning he hits 5 bloop hits ina row to win… comeback logic is real… gtfo if you disagree

I don’t accept messages. Too many immature ragers.

Calm down. Breathe. Relax. It’ll be okay.

That’s the fun part. I want ragers to write me bro. It’s entertaining. Not to mention they are all poors Bc they won’t accept my 100-500 psn challenges

You’re acting like a prepubescent child. Grow up and quit being a tool.
