This game is not market-ready. Also, you're not responding to any form of communication...

"I ran straight to the ball with Willie and he didn't catch it, you can tag MLBTS20 for that one. Maybe if I say something they'll fix it."

hahahah

How can you root against this guy? One of the best stories/personalities of October

Arbitrary results in addition to intense pitch speeds make the game extremely unfulfilling and hard to enjoy. IMO prioritizing content over gameplay sucks.

SDS, do you have any plans on enhancing your server situation? I get tired of spending thirty minutes trying to find a game because everyone wants to play at home.

@SDS_Jax

SDS has to be nerfing exit velocities in Showdown. I've never seen so many perfect/perfects consistently under 100 mph exit velocity. Even with the likes of trout, etc.

First pitching, then hitting, now baserunning... oh my!

With how awful gameplay has been this year, they should open up the Beta/Alpha for months to allow for ample feedback. Fingers-crossed, SDS can provide high-quality gameplay next year!

Coming from a player that has hit the 1100s, when you make world series it's easier to win against players above 1000 than against little billy at 850. I know this thread will get a lot of opinions, but based on all the games I've played, my winning percentage gets much lower in that final game. Feels like this makes sense because after hitting WS there's not much left to play for...

MLBTS 18 and 19 have epitomized mediocrity... at best. I know that this complaint is getting repetitive, but we need to go back to the MLBTS 16, and prior days, where user input was much more consistent. I'm a fan of having a game that is playable for everyone. However, having ambiguous outcomes isn't a good long term solution.

Velocity needs to be consistent across all pitch types. Watching some of the best players on twitch and seeing their reactions, solidify my beliefs. To. hit a 92 MPH Sinker should require the same timing as a 92 MPH Cutter. Unfortunately, this is not the case right now.

At this point SDS is just embarrassing themselves. Even when they attempt to promote something positive, their extreme lack of execution (makes me believe that there's a severe lack of planning as well) causes scenarios like this to backfire. They need to get a new Head of Brand, or someone on the marketing side who knows what they're doing.

But at the same time, sticking to the short term mindset of we're making money, so who gives a [censored] seems to be working.

The fact that spamming high sinkers have become normal is frustrating. If that won't be fixed at least randomize starting pitcher selection so we don't have to see Kluber every game.

I just watched a top 5 player's stream and he went 5-3 in RS. The main issue here was not that he was losing, but how he was losing. For example, he was clearly outplaying his opponents in relation to squared up balls.

It's hard to enjoy a game in which many outcomes are not controlled. It defeats the purpose of even having a game IMO. SDS should just convert into Out of the Park Baseball.

Heck, Backyard Baseball might be a better option at this point.

SDS needs to implement an SLA with it's customers, so we get protected from 5 years in a row of BS. I wish there was a competent company that could develop a baseball game

This game's honestly unreal. If a top 10 player is losing three games in a row to low tier WS players, that's a problem. Not counting all other shitty RNG related outcomes in this game. Give us our money back...

@SDS_Jax it's not even fun at this point... I just had 6 outs on 5 perfect perfects most of them were under 100mph exit velo

@CalisGW said in Should be able to see opponents PCI:

Why should you know where we are focusing our pci at? would give to much info to the pitcher. You crazy.

I mean after the hit already occurred, I'm just referring to feedback

Why is this not a thing? I feel like SDS hates transparency, makes no sense why only the offense can see the result of a hit...
