@nymets1987_PSN yeah last night I was doing the Payton tolle to Austin Wells moment and wondering what the hell is this [censored]. I actually just force myself to snigger at it now rather get angry although that doesn't always work.

Glad I found this. For months now CPU pitching has been infuriating me. I do have a few conspiracies of my own though.

I am almost certain while, you will win most games against the CPU, you will not get anywhere close to the things you want to achieve (K's, HRs, PXP etc ...) than you would have gotten in games gone by.

I started noticing it when I was focusing on team affinity. Obviously the season standout challenges are insane and in most cases you need 300+ Ks with a specific team and if you go into either mini seasons or conquest, you'll notice they foul of pitch after pitch until eventually they'll get a grounder or a fly ball. We all know getting K's against the CPU should be pretty easy but this year is different, absolutely no doubt.

The CPU pitching is just horrendous. Common and bronze pitchers with absolutely no control throw [censored] after [censored] then dot dot dot, obviously you get hits but again like above, its completely unreaslitic in a game that we reguarly hear people state "well thats baseball". Even in the moonshot mini seasons where hitting homers is kinda the aim, the common pitchers throw very little.

It all comes down to SDS making this game very grindy - a lot LOT more than before and again, look at mini season objectives. I dont have them to hand but ridiculous amounts of Ks, PXP and HRs.

I can't help but think they are pandering to the few and making the game gradually more unenjoyable for the whales and streamers out there.

Quite extraordinary SDS. I mean it's a good job that show packs don't give us many dupes eh!

Anyone else getting this? Going thru my sh*t ton of dupes, getting account restricted message via app after a few listings.

I think you just need to look at the margins between buy and sell. They are almost always dead on 10% give or take. It's no coincidence. Of course SDS don't want you making profit of any kind, I've given up trying to grind stubs and just focusing on practising on how to fit fly balls to the outfield.

Not playable at the moment. Seems to be a server issue at the moment but before that the load times were bad enough.

Sorry please delete! I didnt know this was an actual challenge!!

PS - to get full context of the post, you need to look at the image

No words

I've made sure there wasnt a similar post before posting this, gotta admit I am surprised there isnt.

So 24 was the first game I played so I have limited knowledge of pack histories etc but if anything my memory is fresh that I absolutely didnt get as many dupes as I am getting just now.

First of all, the marketplace on the game is p*ss poor if you actually want to maximise the price for your dupes, its far too easy for folk to quick sell. I then have to have my PC open or the app on my phone to check what price to sell dupes for.

Then the main point I want to make is, I am averaging 3 out of 5 dupes per "The Show" packs. So 40 mins ago I got 17 packs through awards, it took me 25 mins to get them opened and sold, thats just now many dupes I had.

Then I done my collections and got another 10 packs. Same again, 2 but mostly 3 dupes per pack.

If I had a high compleation rate on cards I'd understand but I dont. I am miles away from even being near 50% on the live series!!

Pretty sure I dont remember feeling like this during 24.

Rant over

Defo not a controller issue, happens to me several times in any one match. Reported it to SDS they said comment on the forum.

I have one but I can honestly say it doesnt make any difference but thats just my opinion

Happened to me too, submitted a ticket to SDS and they told me to write something in this forum. Beat Tampa and after the win they attacked me.

Everytime I play it always resets my LHP vs RHH to middle center! I've changed it countless times on the main menu as well as in whatever game mode I am in.

Guessing I am not the only one who's getting this problem.

UK here and I can't get on. Telling me I can't use this content and that I need to buy it, a game I got for free six months ago.

@Rsalermo82_PSN I sent you an invite last week

First of all apologies if a post like this exists already, I couldn't find anything.

Secondly, I'm British and became obsessed with the Baseball since late 24 season, getting into it after I started playing this game and now I can't wait for the new season to start.

I've played tons of single player modes, making slight improvements on hitting but definately still got tons to learn, for example how to identify pitches and be able to hit pitches in and up in the zone.

I have tried multiplayer a few times, but I went in expecting nothing less than a tanking which is what I got and even as a beginner, it is no fun playing with folk who just want to demolish you.

Safe to say being in Scotland, I dont have any friends who like BB or play this game. So I am reaching out here to see if anyone is looking for someone to have casual games with, ideally with a view where we can both learn.

I'm 43, male and on PS5. Happy to share info if anyone has any interest.
