I literally only play ranked seasons, a game or two per night. I probably won’t even get to the first future star pack in the program like this.
It sucks that they have to put the XP rewards so far out to battle XP exploits … making normal players have to grind exploits in order to achieve anything

So, I give you a lot of flack about your negative posts so let me give you a 👍 for a positive and constructive post.

The nearest server to me is at Applebee’s. Eating good in the neighborhood

Thanks for sharing.

I’m assuming OP is in a freeze off but failed to mention it.

His burger king hot spot misy have disconnected

I know nothing about internet but with two kids and a wife on wifi and my other PS5 streaming my gaming PS5 has 871.0 Mbps download and 33.8 Mbps upload. Game seems to play smoothly.

EDIT: No I don't think he gets a 99 card. I mean its always possible if we inflate some numbers but I don't think he would get one. No awards really. 1 AS appearance. So can't even give him one of the fancier award/milestone cards.

If Dylan Cease and Jarred Kelenic got 99s last year, then Bo gets one. End of Discussion.

You of all people should know that Future Stars and Finest are quite literally the most 2 irrelevant card series when predicting legends and other flashbacks overalls should be. I would love a Bo Card but if he didn't play 2 professional sports and just played baseball we are comparing him to Curtis Granderson at best

Dante Bichette got a 99 30/30 card last year in a year he racked up a 0.9 WAR. Bo’s 1990 season laps that output and oh, BTW, throw in gold glove caliber defense.

Sig or Prime him and call it a day.

Bichette was a 96. Didn't reach 99 until after parallels

and I get someone dotting with Wright on legend. Yea ok

and Mr I take no skill to pitch 99 Johnson. Kind of hard to hit 120. When you do Frank Thomas making diving plays. I think I'm the only one up here without collections.

Super fun game.

I do agree that Randy Johnson on legend is a joke. The ball comes out of his hand weird and people have found a way to spike offspeed pitches to make it look like a fastball out of the hand. Basically he is like a CAP pitcher.

His slider and slurve travel in the same trajectory as his fastball so yeah if you know how to tunnel his pitches it’s easy to throw his pitches in the dirt and make them look like fastballs until the last second. It’s not like it’s an exploit.

The last dude I played with Randy had a .5 WHIP and ERA with Randy alongside an 18.8 K/9. I won the game, but those stats are obviously a joke and prove he is glitchy.

My monthly Kyle Wright card has over 20k’s per 9 in online play. And I haven’t played above All Star yet this year online. If you know how to pitch with the cards out there you’re gonna have high per 9 numbers.

You must have only faced all blind people with him lmao. Give me a break.

Doesn’t matter how good you think you are at tunneling or how superior your intellect is pitching is a joke on this game and PPP is not a skill. Literally 1,000 times more difficult to be a good hitter. Maybe I would be willing to give someone some credit if they can pitch with meter.

I’m not gonna argue with you over pitching input. All of them require timing. Pinpoint requires the most action prior to the timing aspect, that’s why it has the most reward along with the most risk of leaving something hittable.

I don’t care how good you think you are at pitching any competent player would light Kyle Wright up on All-Star or below.

Ok kid, let’s first get one thing straight, I make World Series every year. This year I haven’t had the opportunity to play much online. I’m well aware of the difference in difficulty going from AS to HOF. The point I was making had to do with the fact that I have had success with inferior pitchers on lower difficulty levels. Which an intelligent person would have deduced based on the conversation. So please go brag somewhere else I’m not impressed. Hope I get the opportunity to run into you online. We’ll see just how good you really are.

So have you faced Randy Johnson on HOF/Legend this year or no?

Yes I have. He’s tough no doubt.

To be honest if you objectively go back and read the posts I did not make a single reference to your skill level or mine. That all happened in your own mind.

i need to see a video of these Warping pitches while batting

@jetguy35_mlbts said in Got to say:

I’ve basically stopped playing ranked. Yesterday I played 1 game to see how it was or if it had been tweaked, but I should have just not played. Lost 5-2 to a guy that K’d 15 times. I K’d zero. He was home team so he didn’t bat in the 9th so out of 24 outs he had 15 Ks. I had 6 outs on balls hit over 100mph. He had a 3 balls hit over 100mph, none of them were outs, all home runs. I had 3 PP, 1 lineout and 2 singles. I hit zero home runs with countless centered pcis with great timing flares for flyouts, lineouts and GIDPs. Everytime I squared up, it felt like the game put a parachute on it. I honestly can’t get myself to keep playing anymore. You lose because the game makes you lose, not because the opponent is better. People can flame me and defend the game but I’ll stand by my assessment. Clearly RNG/DDA going on big time.

I understand the frustration with the game. I've complained enough about it. But, maybe in that game, you were lacking the clutch/lucky hits.10 hits but only a couple of runs doesn't sound like it was your night to win. The other guy could have just guessed right at the right time. And add some luck in there. But I don't remember PNC being a homerun friendly park. I could be mistaken though.

Oh look a D_e_m_I_s_E post complaining about another users connection.

How novel.

You call it complaining. I said it was a legitimate question. Again, I won the game. It wasn't a fun experience. Isn't that the whole purpose of playing video games? You know to have fun.

How do I get matched up with people playing in the austraillian outback isn’t a serious question. If you really want the answer, the answer is you didn’t. You didn’t match up with somebody from the other side of the world or from a different hemisphere. How do you come to that conclusion when this happens all the time? Is every game against somebody where the constellations are different or just this one? SeRiOus QuEsTiOn BtW

I would say you do realize the outback thing was a joke but it flew way over your head. Haven't had too many games like that. Shouldn't happen at all is my point.

Haven’t had too many games like that huh? It’s like you think people forget the other million posts. You can click on your name and immediately see a 3 page essay about how it took a global pandemic for you to get a grip and stop posting about this but still haven’t. Apparently it was keeping you up that night so you took stand up comedy to a new level.

Yea. I switched up my internet. Not using my google fiber hardly at all.

Wow an actual post about the game and players you use/face instead of assuming you’re playing someone in Chicago just because they’re wearing Cubs uniforms.

Keep it up.

@d_e_m_i_s_e_psn said in And in shocking news:

RS game up 4-1 in the 6th and the game freezes. Of course, this person won't quit like he should. How many Show games have been released and we can't figure out the freezing?

How do people go 100-5 with these things and the plethora of other stuff? Do I have to move to the east coast to avoid freezes too?

i still get a like 1 freez off per 20 games here in Taxachusssettss not worth moving lmao

Nobody gives a S-h-I-T

The worst part is we all know the OP is going to buy 23 and do this all over again. He loves to be miserable.

Learn how to play.

@d_e_m_i_s_e_psn said in And just when you think it can't get worse:

Freeze off in an event.

You guys have been doing this for how many years?

I’ve noticed not every time is a freeze off. I was losing 4-0 today and the game froze while the guy was turning a DP on me. He messaged me telling me to leave and not to freeze the game. Which I didn’t because I don’t know how that works. I left and gave him the W since I wasn’t hitting well anyways. I think it’s just the servers acting up time to time.

You might get better results if you move closer to the servers.

Game is [censored] and anyone who has played the show for awhile knows it.

And yet you by it every year...

Despite swearing up and down every year they won’t buy the game the next year. SDS thanks you in advance for your purchase of MLB the Show 23.

@ibonafidescrub_ said in Grind isn't worth the rewards:

Do you think there will br another 99 card for Randy Johnson this year?

I think for sure. If they give him a D Backs card it would have to be a 99 and better than his current card. But it would probably be much later so LS collection guys dont complain. Maybe Nov- Dec.

@cosmic_wonders said in Gameplay aside:

35 RS games and you’re halfway to 400? Rating? Innings?

39 games now. 236 innings and 815 rating. Been disconnected I think 3 times now.
