fielding is even worse after 1.08...had a 85 ovr outfield run to the ball and stand there while ball dropped next to him and rolled all the way to the fence, but some games fielder will lock on to the ball from 15ft away. its so wierd.

they need to fix it so high sinkers get 0 break, it should be same as a fastball if u throw a sinker high.

use buttons+meter and only time u will commit throwing errors is when u mess up the input, otherwise u will never commit a throwing error ever. im glad auto throws has more errors, or doing it manual wont be balanced.

or what about more consistent game play with less rng before doing all these useless things?

It would be great if they made it for zone hitting only or just matched you up against an opponent using the same hitting style as you.

Whats the best way to tell someone is using directional?

They hit the ball on the ground on every pitch low in the zone, and hit it for fly outs high in the zone and get actual hits when you put it middle of zone. If someone his the ball in the air when you put it low in the zone then it means they are not using directional for sure.

So the best strategy for pitching them would be to keep pitches down in the zone?

Ya if you keep it down or high they will 100% either ground out or fly out every single time even if u tell them where you gonna throw, that's why directional is useless its same as center swinging at every pitch using zone. But this game sometimes throws meatballs right down the middle even if you miss by a little, guess they do that to keep directional hitters happy.

So sick of facing him literally every other game. People prob just running a 3 man rotation since stamina regens so fast.

Every online mode should be forced to play only in minor league stadiums. Every major league stadium has crazy lag/input delay online. Will feel like you swinging the bat under water with drag when you play in major league stadiums.

Its cause you're playing online dude, you don't have any of these problems offline.

Imagine playing against AI bots in 2020.

Why even have user input then? Just make CPU play the games when its player v player too and lets just watch a simulation instead of making input matter since iT hApPeNs iN bAsEbAlL.

@Katz94_ said in Exchanging or quick selling “collected” or “no sell” players:

I’d really like someone from SDS to explain why we can’t exchange or quick sell players from our collections after they are collected. It doesn’t impact elite players or players that get everything done quickly or spend money to complete collections but for people who don’t have a lot of time or aren’t that good or don’t have the money, being able to do something with collected cards is crucial to completing collections and getting players like Trout. The only reason I was able to complete collections last year (for the first time ever) was because once I finished a team I was able to either quick sell them or exchange them for better players. The way they did it this year means people like me and a lot of others will miss out on cards like mantle and biggio and even trout. Can someone at SDS please explain the logic behind this? Not a community member please. I’d like to hear it directly from them please and thank you

Because they want you to get your credit card out.

@iluvhaunts said in 1st inning program:

I’m debating between them but I believe I will pick whoever sells for the most to be honest. Not a big fan of the Roberts card and don’t really need another starting pitcher.

u wont get them. bet you will get to pick out of the 85 overall diamonds. the guy above got lucky if he actually had the high diamonds as options.

manually control the routes with him and take a route that will make him face the ball before catching it. if u go straight to where the ball is gonna land it will hit off his head and drop. i realized that after my first game with him lol

also noticed if u you put outfielders in their secondary position they tend to do that a lot as well.

bring back balks. its so annoying having to face quick pitching when guys are on base.

^ game has way too much rng instead of making it all based on user input nothing else, its a video game not irl baseball. but people with no clue will defend all the scripted [censored] by saying "iT hApPeNs iN rEaL bAsEbAll".

how is this [censored] not regulated or not 18+? just from the posts on the forums about these packs you can tell people are addicted to this just like gambling. online poker is banned in america btw....but opening virtual packs with irl money like pulling the lever on slots like these arent regulated eventho its gambling.

So sick of facing 99 Kluber every other game. At least make it where if you start a pitcher you cant start him again for the next 3-4 games. Everyone just running 3 starters and using the other 2 as relievers now. Turn down pitcher stamina recovery by double what it is now, especially in games where others quit, every pitchers stamina recovers so much if other player quits mid game.

@SatrdaysR4DaBoys said in Perfect... 98 out of the pitchers hand... 93 off the bat...:

I had this happen to me in RS. Not as bad but 100mph in, Perfect-Perfect, 98MPH out. And this bottom 9th 2 outs in a tie game. Ball died in CF and I lost in extra innings.

The script was in. This game 100% has those scripted mechanics like Fifa Ultimate team had, someone exposed that looking through its code a few years back. Other guy probably spend more on microtranscations than you.

iT hAPpeNs iN rEAl bAsEBaLl....wait nvm. Game has too much RNG elements to keep it scripted.
