So the 93 Marte is as good as his finest from last year? You know, since overalls don’t matter, right? Marte is great because he is a) a switch hitter, b) SDS gave him the “right” attribute mix, and c) Marte has a (community decided) “good swing”. Even then, if Marte wasn’t a switch hitter no one would use that card.

The 93 overall comes from meaninless attributes being low, examples like durability, base running agg, Vision, clutch, Thats how they manipulate lower card overalls. You're just complaining to complain.

Interesting. Never thought about that. Will have to check out the card.

He's also a great card because of his positional versatility. No other top-tier hitter can play as many positions fairly well like he can.

@dudeman22__psn said in Perfect game/no hitter cards:

Does it really even matter what the card are? Every single run comes from a home run, so who cares what anyones stats are besides power and hr/9

The point is that H/9 didn't matter before no hitter cards existed. Anything over 100 was considered good enough

@lord_blumpkin35 said in Why?:

uh bc your pitchers have stamina and if youre rocked that could snowball to loosing streak since you dont have a bullpen. thats my thoughts though I rarely quit.

This is the reason I quit. If I'm getting beat by 6 and know how the game is going, I'm going to save my bullpen. Not to mention I can start another game and be further into it.

exactly, I dont blame others that quit around inning 5, and really the only time I even somewhat go ah man they quit is in BR for the xp lost and inherently harder matchup for the xp I need in that BR challenege mission ( I think likw 4000xp total in a run)

@djpearl23_psn said in Next Program:

Pretty sure in the last stream they said the next program would only be 1 boss and that we would all want him. I cant remember if they also said new legend, but if they did I am going with Bo Jackson.

oh. then this post is satire.

99 Mourneau is is.

Yeah I don’t really get the complaints.

What’s the difference between PXP and “get 5 doubles with so-and-so”?

Then people complain that they finish content immediately and then have nothing to do for weeks.

It’s really comical at this point. I’m a fan of having longer programs this year since they removed TAs. Just gives you something to work on over time. I just hate moments and wish there was MORE PXP missions to be able to bypass them if we want to.

All sports games should be released every two to 3 years if developers and their overlords cared about quality. It'll never happen because cash flow will always be numero uno.

Machado would be sick. He’s batting .380 and he’s a stud defensively

Which XBOX is the best? I can still make money on this PS5.

Xbox Series X

@bob_loblaw1984 said in best monitor under 300:

Not sure you’re going to get what you want for that. Look for 120/144hz, VRR, HDMI 2.1. I recommend getting a nice big TV with those features instead of spending roughly the same on a monitor.

i'd never play on a tv.

@go4stros25_psn said in PS5 to Xbox:

Lol giving up on the ps5 huh?

I've thought about it as well. I've contemplating buying a series x and gifting my ps5 to my father in law. That way I can have 120fps on most games, true next gem gaming, and gamepass, halo as well as earning some major brownie points with the In-laws

I got it last year and the create a stadium was awesome, but like i wanted it feel like a next gen. Idk i'm on the fence, going to find a buyer for my ps5 then pay day on friday but have to coach all weekend for wrestling so i'll wait and see.

You got a buyer right here buddy!

i just wanted to see Buxton get super charged for being unreal, this turned political for no reason.

Maybe we get another player of the month Buxton. Permanent lightning card! Fingers crossed. Guys a stud.

I see a lot of people upset with game play right now, (you have every right to be) but I've found what works for me lately is treating the game like actual baseball, meaning basically im looking for hard contact every time, i'm going to get absolutley roasted and be called a shill, but if you play ranked and play with the mindset of being relaxed you'll have a way better experience, plus i work for a living between working in education and coaching after school days, if lining out or losing in a video game is the worst part of my day, then i had a pretty good day. Have a blessed moonshot weekend.

bruh, if you play this like real baseball you will get slapped. The pitching doesn't work like real life ....but I get your point on hitting, I play much better relaxed and not pressing.

pinpoint pitching is pretty easy to me, if you know how to properly pitch tunnel, its pretty simple. Hitting this year, whit the pitches feeling slower you have to let the ball travel and let it get deep or yu're going to roll over. Kinda like real hitting.

the problem is that they will look silly all game and then string out a couple of rollers and then out of the blue hit a monster bomb....then go back to looking silly. At least that's what I've found. A lot of randomness. Generally it is fine, but I find it to be inconsistent due to the incessant amount of foul balls and the return of the check swing....I do better when I try and keep them off balance with timing and location rather than tunnel...but just could be the matchups I've gotten.

As a NMS myself, apart from the odd 25$ once or twice during the year, last year was exhausting. I didn't pre-order this year, and finally caved on Sunday. From mid-August on I kept getting behind because of the sheer volume of programs, and I never actually had the time to play with most (9o%) of the diamonds I'd get.

There is such a thing as too much of a good thing; last year was it. Still think 19 was great in terms of content balance.

@guccigangchuck said in No packs:

Still don’t have my pre order rewards sent in a ticket, they responded but still nothing, anyone else?

How quick of a turnaround was it for your ticket to get a response? I put in one about 3 hours ago for a different issue. I know they're probably slammed so I'm not expecting a quick resolution.

If it's like last year, it will seriously take a couple of months. So, enjoy the game and don't focus on a resolution to your issue. Sorry 😕

Because baseball is random.

Please no, comic book cards sounds like the lamest thing ever lmao. And I watch anime, but anime cards would be cringe af. Just go back to using actual Topps art for a players best card way more often.

the same bland dry packs? no like theme out of position cards, or in the fall like back in mlb 16 they did a gridiron on the diamond pack that featured mlb players that played college football, just cooler theme packs, its gets dry after a while more cards, more variety more appeal.

BRUH "out of position" you just a 2K player mad the show is even kinda realistic and not invincle goat signature limited pg/c dark galaxy diamond giannis

i dont play 2k lol and the game is so realistic with Created players that are in the game online lol.
