@darkblue1876_PSN I saw it in here. It would freak me out if I hadn’t known. I have a franchise doing on season 23 that I started in MLB17 that I keep going back into the game to play. I do miss that feature for franchise.

Finally found it. It used to be marked as a tab "quick counts" on/off. After the recent update it was reworded to AI player at bat "watch full/half".

@darkblue1876_PSN said in how to get 2020 cover athlete cards:

I have been going crazy trying to figure out how to get the third and final cover card. I have looked in every program and cannot seem to find it. Does anyone know how to get the Harper cover series card?

7th Inning Program Monthly Programs or XP Reward Path

OK. Thanks. I saw that online, but I didn't see his card in the progression bar in the program.

I may not get that one for a while as my main problem is beating showdowns. I have completed almost all the missions for all 10 innings, but I am horrible at showdowns.

@MW3-ALL-DAY19 said in Opponent quits but I get the loss?:

I was just winning 6-0 in 7th and got the same pop up. I was handed a loss too. Anything we can do about it??

Not really. You can report it, but I had a freeze off that cost me a chance to make huge gains for a program and nothing ever came of it.

You're one of the people I would ask.
If your stick is working fine in the menu or other games, that's not it. There's always the dreaded re-install.

Thankfully it was working normally when I logged on yesterday. I still don't know what happened. System was working very oddly that day.

I also had issues with DD where it said I was not connected to internet when system booted me out of a game, yet my computer was on in the same room and I successfully opened up 2 different websites with zero problem.

I then got back into the game, and it did not record it as a loss, but I then played a conquest game and at the end where I got my reward I got a card and a "quit/disconnect" notice too. I suspect that was from the earlier issue.

Things are back to normal for me.

@DoIHearBossMusic said in Fielding out of position:

I play Jose Ramirez at 1st out of pos. and haven't really seen a diff.

OK. I don't usually mind the power hitter at first base that much because even in real life it seems to be the spot to dump a guy with power and not a huge risk.

Appreciate the info.

I probably didn't help matters by wording this like I did. Would it change people's opinion if I meant that every level saw a slight increase in pitch speed/movement?

I just can't handle the big jump from veteran to all star. Had that happen when I tried 21, got a couple of wins, then had several disconnects and rage quits, so I moved into all star when I was really playing like a low 300 player.

While I have improved a bit, and can sometimes play on all star, I am nowhere near regular play there. I skipped 22 and only watching 23 since I cannot complete 21 because all the programs were locked out after 22 launched. However, 20 still has everything open so I am playing on that and having a fair amount of fun despite not a lot of online activity.

What they should do, in my humblest opinion as always of course, is get rid of different pitch speeds per difficulty tier and adopt a universal pitch speed across all the levels of difficulty. My suggestion would be pitch speeds somewhere in between All-Star and HOF, BUT and this is a very big but, the PCI and area of contact should shrink considerably based on the level of difficulty you play at. That way everyone can get used to pitch speeds regardless of what level one plays at, and the higher tiers will be dictated by stick skills because you'll need to be accurate more than anything. That has been my suggestion since 2018.

Edit: it also won't scare players as much to move up in tiers and try themselves at HOF or even Legend. The thought of playing there is often intimidating for many because they feel like they can't catch up to the fast stuff. This way, you don't have to worry about that. Gotta worry more about PCI placement.

Deja Vu buddy. I recall 16 and 17 being just that. 18 seemed very slow pitch speeds to me. You are right though and I agree. PCI size would be based on your level and decrease in size as you move up.

When I was a teenager I worked at the returns desk at Wal-Mart. I once had a guy try to return 12 year old toilet paper. It was a color of yellow I’ve never seen before. That’s what this post reminds me of 😂

The question is did you take it back?

No…It was past 30 days lol

IIRC, the settings are based on the higher ranked player. But it’s been a while and I was never good enough for it to matter anyway.
