@xRatedGProdigyx_PSN exactly !!!! Im an online player i dont want anything to do with having to play the cpu for any extended amount of time. Because then I go back to online and lose all my timing i worked so hard to get. If you want to get better at ranked and online. You cannot consistently play vs the cpu. Its a completely different experience. Those cards in mini seasons need to be sell able. Thats not asking for anything to be free. Or given to us. Us online players have way more stress than you easy going cpu players.

@DemIsE4_XBL that is very interesting! Maybe fiber is set up within the game to match us farther away from our oppenents. Fiber is supposed to be the best internet. So maybe the game just isn't caught up to it or isn't reading the fiber connection properly. Interesting to say the least.

@GoozeFn_PSN yes im sure most of us know what a good, good looks like. Or an almost perfect. If the ball is almost in the center of the pci and the timing is great that's a good, good. Those inputs are not rewarding like in years past.

@DemIsE4_XBL I also have fiber. So maybe that is what it is. I did point forward my internet to my xbox and that seems to be helping and its also wired. Also I moved my router away from the xbox a little bit and made sure my xbox is on a stand alone table all by itself. Whats really funny is the regular wireless controller has way less input lag than my expensive power A wired controller. The bottom line is mlb the show needs their own servers! And clearly there are way too many issues with the game.

@GoozeFn_PSN well you know I never talk about perfect hits. Cause I do not come on here and exaggerate. You already know I do not do that.

@GoozeFn_PSN this boils down to our previous conversations about the stats being completely incorrect. You think the stats are correct when they have refused to fix every single bug in the game this year including the wheel. Lets not forget people getting world series in co op by quiting, that literally is unforgiveable this year. How they can let 1000s of people make ws by cheating tells me all I need to know. So yes when we tell you the game play sucks and good inputs are going unrewarded consistently!! Its because its true. And why is it that you are seeing multiple players with 500 batting averages? Because they are boosting in online events, that's why. Because they decided to make events a boosting center this year instead of the 3 inning competitive game mode its always been. Total joke.

@GoozeFn_PSN ok thanks for explaining. But yes if you are a top 1 percent player their opinion does not matter, and should not matter. Not saying that's you after what you said.

@GoozeFn_PSN 22 and 3. So you have only played 25 total ranked games? Or do you just wait for weekend classic and play alot then? Either way 22 and 3 record is elite. Maybe a top 1 percent player. Ive said this before you top 1 percenters opinions are not relevant. You probably have great swings every at bat. So you dont care about what everyine else is saying. You are like the rich guy coming on here trying to gas light all the middle class folk.

@Dolenz_PSN exactly these morons keep coming on here trying to say its real baseball or a baseball sim. Plain idiotic. Its a game! And player input matters in a game. Period end of conversation.

@AppleLemon560_MLBTS sds is definitely dropping the ball on this! Great post. They need to bring back event rewards with theme teams and make it so we can use or have to use certain cards every week or so. Get more creative. Couldn't agree more. I already said whoever idea it was over at sds to take event rewards out this year needs to be fired.

@fubar2k7_PSN and that's why no one watches baseball its boring.

@Patu_Xlord_YT_PSN its every online mode brother. Probably offline also. But I try not to play offline that much, Because it makes me a worse player when go back to online. Rage inducing to say the least! Ive broken three controllers this year.

@RAisEdByGoAt_XBL servers for sure. And they nerfed pitching and DEFENSE hard core this year. This is definitely the year of pitching dominance. Everyone i play online seems to be an elite pitcher. Everything is a dot or on the edge. Very rare to get a ball you can actually square up. I think that also has alot to do with it. Throw in the rng and constantly being unrewarded for good timing and pci swings and there ya go.

@Tylerslikewhoa_XBL you want to compare the 99 percent of us to the top 1 percent of the best of the best of players? Those players are so good...what the op is talking about doesnt really matter to them. Because they can over come it. Because everything they hit is perfect. The Same rng happens to them as well. Doesnt faze them, because their next at bat and the bat after that will be a perfect hit swing. My point being is it doesnt effect them as much. Example when the economy is bad, the top 1 percent of the richest people can care less and does not effect them as much. You should start learning to think outside the box. And not just what you are told.

@RAisEdByGoAt_XBL I never really noticed all of these things until this year. I do not think this was part of the online play the past few years. I surely would have noticed. But its definitely here now.

@x-814-x-MAFIA-x_PSN you are the biggest gas lighter on here bro. You sit behind a key board or your phone and discredit everything anyone says in this forum. Are you ok man? You good?

@GoozeFn_PSN yes wired fiber 2 gigs. I know its very strange. It may just be mlb the shows servers in my geographical location. I dont know. But years prior on a regular TV I never had these issues. Im very frustrated. I promise im a level headed guy. Not making this stuff up. I also made ws. Yes. But off the back of my pitching not hitting.

@GoozeFn_PSN I play on a monitor. 144hz monitor 1ms. When I check my upload speeds in the xbox settings they are usually over 600. Is there a way to check the monitor speeds? Im also finding lately my pci does not move sometimes when I feel like im clearly moving it and the timing/pci indicator after the swing shows the pci in the middle on my swings didnt move at all. I have a power A wired controller. And ive tested the analog sticks and it works great on the tests.

@PriorFir4383355_XBL I kid you not. Especially on inside fast balls or sinkers. I have to swing as soon as I see the ball leave the pitchers hand! On all star! I have to literally guess where the pitch is going to hit it. I see it leave the pitchers hand and its instantly across the plate most games. Online game is basically unplayable for me. I beat my head against a wall almost every game. Ive been playing this game for 4 years straight. And all of a sudden I cant hit an inside fast ball to save my life with same side batters. Maybe they knew something was up? Why did they give us so many switch hitters this year to start. The game plays to fast and is too [censored] hard to have game play and server issues.

@Sarge1387_PSN the outlier fast balls on every pitcher does not help. But its not the reason we are late all the time on most of our swings. Thats the connections for sure. Or like ive been saying they turned up pitching sliders online. I can literally hit the swing button as the pitcher is releasing the ball and still be late!!! Thats a f... problem! And what is also driving me insane.
