@Harrisville318 said in Team build still messed up:

Why are we still dealing with improper team build capabilities? I can only use 1 set 3 player at a time. Season 3 is supposed to be core/set2/set3. The game makes me select Skenes or another set 3 player as my wildcard. Why?

Try having the CPU generate at Best Lineup for Season 3 on your squad, then edit from there.

Thanks fellas! I appreciate the help.

It’s a video game that relies on hand-eye coordination. For you to call that discrimination is some ultimate woke [censored].

you are using woke in a negative way which is not the original meaning behind the term. this dude is simply wrong in his assessment, please don't tie his foolishness to a term that was meant for good.

My main concern with the “perks” is the stamina issue. There is no way Shohei should go 10 innings with 122 pitches and still have green energy. (Just an example of something I’ve seen with my own eyes watching 2 other people play. Stamina shouldn’t be influenced by which input method you use.

For any of you to think it’s foolish for someone to speak up for the handicapped and people that may not have a voice of their own shows exactly how toxic you are. I claim the opinion that “woke” is a negative term.

like I said before it has been manipulated from originally a great positive to the cringe it is today. and what are you talking about? who was berating someone for sticking up for the disabled? lol that was from left field.

If a major league player tried to steal with a 5 run lead, he would take one in his ear hole his next at bat. I know this doesn't answer your question, but maybe that was the thinking. I can't steal anyway, so I've never tried it with a big lead.

Lmao no he wouldn’t

Not an argument, just commenting on those "unwritten rules" that baseball has. A few weeks ago, benches almost cleared because someone dropped a bunt with a big lead.

If you were referring to the Giants game where Wilmer Flores (I think) laid down a bunt, the Giants played it cool and said we're doing what we can to win the series. Even though I don't recall hearing that before, I think that's a good tactic. I don't think everyone will be so quick to adopt it, but maybe they should.

That's the one, and I have no problem with trying to score as many runs as possible, regardless of the score. They are called "unwritten rules" for a reason. You don't have to follow them.

Online Franchise > Custom Leagues

Custom Leagues has become the red headed step-child of The Show modes. It's maddening.

@Harrisville318 said in Content Creators and Shippet:

I have a hard time understanding why A LOT of the you tubers and twitch guys use Shippet as their home field. I know how well the ball flys due to the elevation and all but it's super cheesy considering how short the fences are. Me personally, I expect more from "Professional" video game players. Just my thoughts.

I'm sure this isn't the real reason, but I always thought it was based on the herd theory. I don't ever play there, but if I did, that would be the reason why.

That's why the fanboys play at shippet

I had something similar yesterday, but not as egregious. Pop up behind 2nd, and I switched to my second baseman, but he wouldnt turn around to catch it. I tried to get him in the circle for the easy catch, but he kept facing toward the outfield fence, and it ended up hitting him in the back.

Can The Show please remove this perk thing, this isn't Fallout.

You never replied to my friendly series challenge joshie.

Dude, I'm not gonna go online and play. If I do that before you know it I've gained 50 lbs and I have an addiction to Hot Pockets and Redbulls and throw hissy fits cause my perfect/perfect didn't go 500 feet. Step 1 of not becoming a casual noob is prevention.

I play online. I dont use any type of energy drink. I dont snack while I play nor has online play led to weight gain😂😂😂😂. You really cracked me up with that one. I dont throw hissy fits about any issue on the show. I do however point out the flaws in their gameplay. They should be held accountable. You should also be held accountable as a casual player that repeatedly chimes in on DD threads with your snide comments about "noobs" and "skill". Its obvious that you aren't the type of man(term used loosley) that can walk the walk. Thanks for your time Mr. Casual aka Joshie.

Hmmm I guess you're a unicorn when it comes to online players.

I bet you love unicorns

I think you can, I faced a guy who started Chapman once

You can use an opener out of the pen. I'm saying that I wish I could put up to 5 rp/cp in the starting rotation slots

@Harrisville318 said in Just played a game on "The Show" 19:

It was nice to see user input actually matter again.

You must be joking. 19 was one of the worst games for hitting

Even 2k fixed the problem of people missing green releases. If 2k can fix something then an other developer should be able to.

Because it broke TOS.

His 52 Rookie card is worth several hundred thousand. A PSA 10 could potentially surpass Honus's price tag.

@InTh3iLLCity41 said in Are 2k devs working for SDS during Corona Crisis?:

If 2k was running this, perfect perfect would be 100% a hit. Just like a green release in 2k is splash every time.

A game that rewards user input on a regular basis instead of trying to simulate everything? That sounds like a game I would drop this one for.

@MHHW33 said in Perfect release missing spots?:

It’s all the sliders for ranked online play that are out of whack. Playing in or watching custom leagues the game plays so much better. They have the user input sliders for pitching control to low, the pitch speeds are to high compared to offline, ( I could care less what speed they have it but at least have them match), exit velocities to low on good contact. The games been a copy paste for 5 years with minimal improvements.

I completely agree with you . Custom league gameplay is far more fluid.

The real fix to this is pitcher energy. It needs to be depleted and restored at a rate conducive for these actions not to happen much. People should not be able to start Kluber every 2-3 games or continue to bring him from the pen. This needs tweaked badly. People do it real life. MadBum tore up the Royals in the 2014 World Series. Recovery energy needs to be slowed some.
