@sportpimpin_xbl said in Thai game is not worth playing:

Haven't logged in in days to jump on and see nothing but trash rewards available for long [censored] grinds sds has turned this game into trash in one year of my experience playing this game and that's something even ea couldn't do smh

Thank you for that riveting, cutting edge expose on the state of the game. It calls to mind the great baseball thinkers of history like Roger Kahn, George Will and David Halberstam. Please keep up the great work you do.

Thank you for this award winning investigative expose on the state of the game.

I think they should get auto grand slams. Even when there is nobody on base. Then be served a tray of beer and Hor d'oeuvres when they cross home plate.

Watch out everyone, freaked out Xboxers coming through.

Hi I'm Troy McClure. You might remember me from such posts as:

RIP Team Affinity, we hardly knew thee.

Every card except ALOMAR!

How can I change my icon on the app?

Anyway, for those of you just starting on your Show 22 journey today, remember that it's a marathon, not a sprint. If in 2 months, it's still like this, then maybe we can be upset.

Signed,

The guy who freaked out 4 days ago when he saw that Team Affinity was gone. Thanks to @CDNmoneymaker93_MLBTS, @the_dragon1912, @arvcpa_MLBTS , @SchnauzerFace and the rest of the gang for keeping me sane during these troubled times.

Winter is coming.....but not until after a great year of baseball and baseball video gaming.

The joke is probably on the OP as his opponent may have another console and is playing the game right now.

Or the joke is that the game even can freeze this year on offline content. It has happened to me twice. It is possible he is not even waiting someone out and just has a console lock up and not a freeze off.

We’ve messaged he’s for sure trying to steal a win while down 6

Well, you're showing him. Nobody steals a fictitious video game win from you. Finish him. No mercy.

See you next year

Who cares

I might be going out on a limb here but I think the person that took the time to create the topic and post it probably cares.

I can’t figure that guy out. Every post is about how terrible the game is , how awful SDS is, and basically how stupid anyone who plays it or thinks differently is, yet he is here everyday like a bad fungus.

Obviously didn’t get enough hugs as a kid.

It's funny to make fun of you people. This game is garbage. I don't see why you can't understand it. "Oh, ah! A shiny new card that has one additional power vs lefties this year! WOW!". All the while, thousands of people get into freeze offs.All the while, every outcome is predetermined because SDS can't program a game that has real outcomes. They take the easy way out and you clowns buy it year after year with trash changes. I mean, it took them like, what?, 16 years to update the commentary? They never fix Franchise. I should be able to trade three C level players for Tatis to my team. I'm not buy this game again and I feel cheated by SDS.

So go away man. I just don't get why you're here. You've made your hatred perfectly clear. You don't need to criticize everyone who feels differently. You sound like a spoiled rich kid who only got one pony for christmas.

Why are the trolls out today, did someone feed them after midnight? Or is that gremlins?

Bro....you are a real piece of work. We all know we'll see you back on as Dirty shawn or Mafia or another screen name with the stock icon and hateful rhetoric. Making fun of a video game and the rich company that makes it is one thing, but to attack people who have less than you, you spoiled little man, that's just purely embarrassing. I hope you wake up from your drunken stupor and realize that therapy is an option.

Angels fans can hate on Pujols all they want, I don't entirely blame them. He had 11 dominant years in St Louis (find me a more dominate 11 year stretch by any hitter ever, other than Bonds). Only player ever to amass .300+ average, 30+ Home Runs and 100+ RBIs in 10 straight seasons.

But, his Angels run was nowhere near worth the money they paid him. And if he really said that, I would have beef too. But this Fraud talk? My buddy met Albert and his wife at the zoo this past year, he was taking his kid and a large group of autistic children on a tour. My friend works with a young man with autism and they happened to be at the zoo. Albert not only signed autographs, he invited them to join their tour and spent the whole day together. So when it comes to being a quality human. Albert is no Fraud. He is and always will be the man.

Story is a trendy pick because he has 6 HRs in 5 games. Player of the week maybe. But yeah, he's still not having a good year.

@unicorm82_psn said in New Adley card??:

That is all. I’ll take my answer offline.

Huh? Please elaborate.

I dig it for sure. Just jealous when I play mini seasons and some dude has Randy, Clemente, the big hurt and every other collection piece at P5. It looks so cool when the whole lineup has them.

@mrxbaseballx2k22_psn said in At least it's consistent:

First game of the night.

Event game.

Opponent bunt danced and held R2 EVERY pitch.

I'll buy Hoffman and PXP my player offline.

BTW, K_Gut2001 since you're not only a cheating [censored]; you're also a scared [censored] that hides behind having his msgs off.

So, if you see this: enjoy the report for cheating AND toxic play. Have a nice day!

Dude, I just don't get you. Do you really experience this much negativity online? What's more, those things are not against the rules. Calling out and shaming people for living in third world countries and posting people's screen names...that's toxic and against the rules.

Really at this point, it's become a game, like a scavenger hunt to see when you'll pop up next and with a hat screen name. Ps: by your definition, isn't dirty shawnchez a vulgar screen name?

@jkooch66_xbl said in Adley or Gary Carter?:

@genopolanco_psn said in Adley or Gary Carter?:

I would personally take the switch hitter with more equal splits and better defense, but if you mostly play on All-Star, power is king so I’d take Carter in that scenario. If you’re mostly in the HOF/Legend range, definitely Adley.

I can say that Trevor Story’s bad contact vs Right hasn’t been an issue for me so far.

Yeah right now Aldley is in and Carter is a left specialist bench bat. Probably keep it this way. Thanks.

Man, this was my first event qnd it was funny seeing everyone with Adley. That'll change in 2 days. I agree Carter is a monster offline but online, I think Adleyay have it.

@king_lando112_psn said in The problem with this game:

 Before I say this I love this game. Well it’s kinda due to default bs it’s the only sim baseball game. One thing SDS does with this game is say that it tries to emulate simulation baseball but still catering to the arcade/simulation mix style of play. 

 Yes it looks and feel like you’re playing a “real” baseball game but it does not play like a simulation baseball game. If this game is supposed to be a simulation baseball game it should be skill based, not rng when pitching and hitting.

  If you want everyone to play you’re game and then program it to cater to everyone’s play style say that,  instead of saying “ the game is hitting as intended” but then I’m the same breath promote it as if you’re actually on the mound or in the batters box and your input matters when it doesn’t.

 The problem is that anyone can play this game which is not fair  in a sense. If someone that plays this game to have fun has the same chance of winning no matter his players, rating, or if they aren’t good vs a player who is actually good solely bc everything in this game is based on rng and “circumstances”  isn’t fair. 

 Yes I know you want everyone that likes baseball to play and buy your game, I get that. That’s the problem with only have one baseball game. The developers straggles the fence of programming the game for a specific type of gameplay they put out. That’s why good players  says this hitting engine is garbage and the same with pitching. The play style caters to everyone’s wants and needs which they can’t do bc only  percentage of people is going to be content with this game. This game is like if there was on one war game. Imagine playing battlefield playing like battlefield, cod, Fortnite, and pubg all in the same game. That one game would have to try and make 1 war like game for the mass. That’s what we have in this , madden, and 2k. Their gameplay all Tries to fit for everyone. 

 Like I say, this game is like a very very toxic relationship. You get in an argument, take a break. Once you forget about things you come back knowing what your going to get and  expect different but nothing changes and you repeat the process over and over. lol

Dude, that formatting feels like the script in Oregon Trails in the 80s. Why?

You think I tried to do this? Idk why it posted like this…

Haha, well I can empathize with tech issues. Yesterday at work, excel and I didn't talk till after lunch when it turned more agreeable.

@Mike__Honcho_361 lmfao...I hated getting dysentary..

@jacky-chan1_xbl said in DO NOT PLAY EVENTS:

I don't enjoy playing a game mode that requires you to pay in.

Events are free.

Played my first event ever last night and really enjoyed it. No toxic players like some people warn...maybe it's fun if you just go in and have fun.

And I echo what @genopolanco_PSN said, why be on a forum for a game you don't like?

@mrxbaseballx2k22_psn said in Something seems fishy. And it isn't Mike Trout:

Event Leader 30-0 with a TON of 0-0 wins and has Sig Randy pitching EVERY game with a 57-0 record.

Whooooooo caaaaaaaares?
