At least Tampa Bay is getting some good cards....

Look at the Pirates. I want to play a strictly play as a "theme team" and I can't without using A TON of bronze players

@Psycho-_-Kill-er said in New showdown glitch:

That’s cause Showdowns suck! They are glitchy., hitting becomes impossible, bad fielders make spectacular plays, cpu leads off and auto steals and tags up your runners, perfect/perfects are into a glove or warning track... shall I continue listing?
Ready... set... GO WITH THE ATTACK COMMENTS!!!

100% true! I can't tell you how often I'm squared up to a ball and get OKAY contact result... or a MASSIVE AMOUNT of pop ups; ON VETERAN. Then I go into any other game mode for All-Star difficulty and don't even have nearly as many pop up results. It's pretty obvious there are sliders placed in the CPU's favor when it comes to Showdown.

Those packs are only silver or bronze players. They're any silvers and bronze LIVE series cards

My goodness. He's so BAD. I know his accuracy is bad, but he never gets close to the spot I'm aiming for. I can't even get a swing and miss to save my life. I've only used him for Showdown, but I can already promise I will never use him if I pull him. He's got to be the worst diamond pitcher out there.

I just used him in my NL Showdown and he crushed it for me!

My gripe is the amount of POP UPS I'M GETTING!!!

I'm getting good timing and I'm square to the ball, but getting A POP UP! The CPU would get a foul tip in this exact scenario! Why do I have guys like 99 Sheffield popping up! With RISP! This is constantly happening in Showdown.

Can it be done repeatedly on the same difficulty and get TA every time?

So can I just play on an easy difficulty and win again and again and get TA every time I win, even if its the same difficulty?

So what's the point? If you don't win, or at least win enough battles; you're just wasting stubs... and time....

First of all, this mode is starting to annoy me with the OBVIOUS cheating for the CPU. It's like Madden with Squad Battles. The CPU gets so much help....

But what's up with "BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME" happening? One time I failed THREE TIMES and was still able to play. This past time I failed for the FIRST TIME on the FIFTH Moment and failed completely??

Is it meant to be random like this? Or is there something I keep missing?

Also, do the innings I play with these players give me anything towards innings played for each of these teams affinity?
