    HRs with low power guys
  • DannyDevito8997_XBLD DannyDevito8997_XBL

    Do both their power stats have to be under 75 or just the respective side? I hit a homerun with someone with 59 power against the pitchers handedness but 90 on the opposite side, the homerun didn't count so I am assuming it has to be both sides?

    That being said what are some good players for this?


  • Any tips for pitching moments?
  • DannyDevito8997_XBLD DannyDevito8997_XBL

    With batting moments it is somewhat reliant on skill, but not pitching moments, those are all RNG, there is no rhyme or reason to which [censored] the CPU hits. Is there any go to method? Maybe a specific combo that generally throws them off?


  • Innings played in Ranked seasons...

    @CDNMoneyMaker93_XBL said in Innings played in Ranked seasons...:

    Extra innings don't count, this is likely a mechanism designed to prevent people from matching up and just playing a 250 inning game with some 500+ strike outs and no runs scored

    Even if people would do that... what difference would it make...?? The number of innings played would be the same... You could technically also play 600 innings in 600 face off if you quit or the other quit after 1 inning.... If thats the reason why they did it like that it's totally stupid in my opinion unless there's something I did not figured out..... The goal is to play 600 INNINGS so it doesnt matter if its done in 1 or 600 games.... just my point of view...

    I guess it is because it would be much faster to boost it if you and the guy you are matched up with just throw strikes down the middle and never swing. While it is still the same number of innings played the innings would go much quicker if you boosted them. But that is besides the point because the rare occasion of someone boosting 600 innings shouldnt override the legit players extra innings played. It is a bad solution to a problem that is insignificant.


  • Mini season stolen bases mission

    @Blind_Bleeder said in Mini season stolen bases mission:

    There was steal 10 bases (with your DD squad) in the Last Call PXP missions for Dog Days of Summer. Maybe you're confusing the two?

    I remember that, I could have gotten confused but I could swear I was doing conquest and stole a couple bases and was like wait why am I doing this it needs to be in mini seasons to count. Oh well. Thanks for the responses guys lol.

    @Ericulous1_PSN said in Mini season stolen bases mission:

    Dumb question but are you sure you didn't complete it? Is it a bonus mission? I think those go away after you complete them.

    Not a dumb question you are honestly probably right. I just figured it would show as completed still like the other missions, but maybe it was a bonus and just disappears lol.


  • Mini season stolen bases mission
  • DannyDevito8997_XBLD DannyDevito8997_XBL

    I could swear there was a mission for stealing 10 bases in a season. Today I went to check my progress and do not see that mission anywhere. Was I imagining this?


  • Trying to get better at the game.
  • DannyDevito8997_XBLD DannyDevito8997_XBL

    I will be the first to admit I am not great at the game. I only get to play a couple hours a week so not much time for practice. But also I have been strictly using directional hitting, I will get a good timing swing and my guy will miss swinging well below the ball. I am currently running mini seasons on All Star for the missions which is well above my skill level. But I got frustrated and switched to zone hitting with the PCI and I had a couple good at bats. So it seems like that is the way to go to get decent hitting? Not sure if a fluke or not. As I said I am not very good and timing my swing while trying to recognize if the pitch is gonna be a strike or ball was already a lot to handle, now I have to add PCI movement into the mix. Do you think I would be better off biting the bullet now learning PCI in hopes that down the road I will be better? Or is directional just better for those without much time to learn the skills?


  • Rework for parallel system

    I would prefer SDS not emulate/employ anything similar to EA platforms.

    Also, there’s already enough discontent with people regarding fake attributes (i.e. future stars), that giving us attribute points to assign just further moves it into fantasy/arcade land.

    You’ve got the option now to adjust and make up attributes for a player, donne outside of DD in franchise mode.

    EA has its problems for sure, however their content is significantly better. Other than the final divisional rewards and 2 or 3 team rewards their collections are useless by the time you can complete them. Then you get the big collection rewards throughout the year, what 3 or 4 of them? Majority of the collections are just fodder for a bigger collection.

    So I will offer that I don’t play madden (don’t care for real nfl either, my last EA sports games were NCAA football), so I can’t speak to how their content specifically plays out. What I’ve seen here and other gaming centric public platforms speaks to the cash grab/micro transaction requirements for their system. They seemed to have pioneered and exploited that style of pay to play/win, whereas SDS you can be competitive and win without spending an extra dollar and there are countless videos showing how to achieve that.

    The content ha[censored]s and misses (as I’m sure people believe the same with EA), but I think SDS generally does a good job of trying things out, not making all elite cards behind paywalls, and allowing a platform for various types of play for as many people as possible.

    No doubt EA has mastered microtransactions. But EA has forums like this as well, and if you are half decent at the game and willing to use the forums you can have the best team without dropping a dime. Madden is definitely geared more for the underground gambling scene. I definitely fell off the last few maddens, but the couple maddens I went hard in I was making enough for the best team possible and then trading the currency over for other game currencies. What I meant by the better content is I feel like at least in Madden, the collections aren't outdated I guess. When you are capable of completing a collection the player reward is still viable. In this game I feel like the majority of collection rewards were useless for most teams and just were there to feed into the next collection, which by the time you got there that player might also be obsolete. Just to be clear I havent played Madden in awhile. I definitely prefer the show, however I feel like collections and content like that madden does it better.

    Arguably…Trae Turner is the best 5 tool player in todays game.
    We are now at the end of August and he does not have a competitive card in this mode.
    Crazy… SS’s that have ZERO mlb at bats are used more.

    If this suggested system was to be applied to 1 player that would open things up for alot of folks.

    We then could build our squads around our favorite players.

    I just find so much in the setup of DD odd.

    Rookies having better cards than the best current Hank Aaron

    Just odd.

    That is my thought process. I want to build the team of cards I like that are still productive. Like for instance I want a 99 overall Marcus Stroman and Steven Matz. It will probably never happen, but I think it would be fun to build them up throughout the game cycle to become top tier.


  • Rework for parallel system
  • DannyDevito8997_XBLD DannyDevito8997_XBL

    What if they did something similar to madden franchise mode with xp. Rather than have 5 parallel levels that just bump the stats by 1,2,3,4,5, what if we had xp we can spend freely. And you can progress them to max stats 125 for hitting 99 for speed ect. That would allow people to build a workable team with players they like that may not be top tier in real life. The cost to upgrade a skill would be based on that skills current rating. Upgrading someone from 50 to 51 speed would take 100 xp while upgrading 98 to 99 speed would cost 5k xp or something along those lines. You have the option to stick with commons and try to grind them all the way up to 99s or buy the new Mike Trout and finish him to 99.


  • Pedro Throwing 102mph?
  • DannyDevito8997_XBLD DannyDevito8997_XBL

    Its the problem with every sports game. They focus on beating out the cards of last release rather than giving us real content. Once you are in the "Age of 99s" there is not much you can do other than start juicing everyone. Personally I was very disappointed that there wasn't team affinity programs throughout the year like last year. I liked the setup they had where you unlock better players throughout the year and could take it at your own pace.


  • They should allow you to create more lineups

    @DlGlTAL-ATHLETE_PSN said in They should allow you to create more lineups:

    @DannyDevito8997_XBL said in They should allow you to create more lineups:

    Since a lot of the missions in this game involve using players from every different division and you have different theme missions they should allow to to save a bunch of different lineups.

    I mean you can set four now. But I know what you mean. I wouldn't mind having lineups set as Main, Program, Monthly/TN, Theme team(s), and then if you want an FS, AS, FOTF, etc.

    Now I have my main, Monthly/TN, Program, and an empty one.

    I guess its because I came from Madden, I had a lot of lineups over there. I was thinking since pretty much every program so far has had a get ____xp with AL EAST AL CENTRAL AL WEST ect that it would make sense to have enough lineup slots to handles those + maybe 1 for your main squad or more.

    Just to add, I love playing CPU at the Polo Grounds, have yet to hit it out in CF but Joc has come close hitting the Warning track for a GRD. Realmuto took it for a ride in Left Center last night for a GRD too

    Any reason you play at polo grounds? Just curious because I play at a very small created stadium so I can hit bombs and get the no doubter animations.

    Watch he ll extend his 0 fer to the mid 30s or even 40( dont know if its already ended)then he will hit .450 and slg .900 for a month and a half(just to remind us who he is)

    It's already ended, he hit a home run on Tuesday evening, went 2 for 2 and then was pulled due to his injury

    HaHaHa... he was about to catch fire, but then got injured. By that logic... Bo Jackson is the best football in history. And if I didn't twist my ankle right before the race... I was going beat Usain Bolt in a 40 yard dash. Trout isn't even the best player on the Angels anymore... you have to play to be good at the sport. I want to see him play a full season sometime before we call him the best.

    Bo Jackson wasn't even the best RB on his team 🤔

    ...but there are people that will argue he should be in the hall of fame. It's very similar to argue Trout is the best in baseball when he hasn't even played 150 games in the last 3 years combined.

    Oh yeah he shouldn't be HOF at all. He was a physical specimen the likes of which we may never see again. But HOF worthy nah. Never even rushed for over 1k yards in a season. Only broke 100 yards in a game 8 times I think.

  • Who do I use in the outfield?
  • DannyDevito8997_XBLD DannyDevito8997_XBL

    @g0ne2pla1d_psn said in Who do I use in the outfield?:

    I have a lot of the same players, including ROTY Albert, LS Judge, MS Castellanos. Like you, I have Albert at 3B. I'm going with Castellanos in RF simply because 125/125 v. L with decent vision is too tough to pass up. Lol.

    Thats where my head is at also. However I have had Judge hose down guys from way out there and although that may come into play far less than the Lefty killing of Castellanos it is something to consider.


  • Who do I use in the outfield?
  • DannyDevito8997_XBLD DannyDevito8997_XBL

    @theblindrhino said in Who do I use in the outfield?:

    I use Mookie in RF, Trout in CF, and Joc in LF.

    I was looking at Mookie. Had his reward card last year and he was my best hitter by far. I used his LS card before this recent buff to him trying to get Dodgers xp and I couldn't get a hit to save my life. Considering giving him another try now that he was buffed. Are you using his LS or his All Star card?
