Btw can we stop with the personal attacks? There's no need. As someone who was happy to finish it and expressed it here, why trash someone when they post a positive achievement?

@vvsharkyvv_xbl said in Bout to stop playing this game, SDS THIS IS A JOKE:

For the last 8 straight games I've hit perfectly and good hitting and the ball is dead. It travels right to the opponent no matter where. This is ridiculous. There is something wrong with the GAME,. I haven't hit a hr in 8 games and I have 100 hrs in online rated....wth is going on. There is something not correct since update. This game has taken a turn for the worst. No wonder so many people quit playing this bs game.

First of all, why does a perfect equal homerun?
I've hit so many perfects that were doubles, singles, line outs to outfielders and infielders. That's called reality.
Maybe SDS fixed a broken mechanic leading to too many Homeruns that should never have been.
I always thought it was too easy to hit Homeruns in online play. Especially ranked and BR.
I guess you can't please everyone.

Lee Smith is the best.

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.

"For good" is your opinion though. He is entitled to his.
Try to stay on topic with the OPs topic.

Better rewards for harder difficulties?

I just asked a question. I didn't know. So why are you being such a rude person on the internet?

LOL

"The winning run is at 3rd!"

In the 1st inning of a 9 inning game...

Hmm, i agree with you OP. I dislike trying to throw a pitch at the corner of the strike zone only to have it thrown down the middle for a homerun. I'm using the pitchers #1 pitch with 99 control. This happens way too much.

I also hate giving up a homerun on a pitch close to hitting the dirt. I know your pci can't reach that low under the zone, yet i give up a homerun. No a swing and miss, fowl tip or ground ball. Especially if its a sinker. I've had home runs hit on sliders, change ups, and sinkers clearly un hittable.

Playing Diamond Dynasty vs CPU when i have a base stealing threat on first.

I can't handle PPP myself and prefer classic.
That being said, calling SDS discriminatory is rediculous. I enjoy using classic and timing. That's my choice. It's more fun for me. So players who mastered the other forms better then me? Probably. But I've beaten players who use PPP and PCI. Even if I get destroyed and frustrated, I still have fun.
That being said, I think hitting homers in this game is way to easy for masters. To deal with that just make sure you're not pitching predictably.
All in all I'll never get to 1200 in ranked. I'm ok with it ️

Unless everyone has fiber, internet speeds are CHAOS

@davethagr81_nsw said in Etiquette Question:

I am new to online gaming and I was playing ranked season and I was up 2-0 in the second and was asked for a friendly quit. I am trying to earn XP and rank points. Are friendly quits usually accepted. What is the best etiquette?

NEVER accept a friendly quit. It's a trap!

I just won back to back games at Shibe stadium, 3-1 and 4-3 vs good players.

Both had hitters that show that the players know how to hit. I kept them off balance.

RNJesus

Actually, he is easy to hit if you know how he pitches.

Yea it says the elevation on the stadium card. Anyone have a link to where SDS confirmed the change to elevation of those two stadiums?

Plus OP, as people have said to me: "It's not the game, it's you."

Thx for the info

Are they having another stream today to promote new program?

Gameplay is trash, that's for sure.

But I'm mostly crying about middle-aged-onset psoriasis.

Just wait until the arthritis in your hands begins, then the game will really suck. Can't SDS make a game that doesn't make my arthritis flare up? C'mon - this is 2022!!!!

(You know this is a joke, right?)

Lol

@mrxbaseballx2k22_psn said in Friendly quit?:

@beatlesnews_psn said in Friendly quit?:

So I’m in an event game and leading 1-0 and my opponent asks for a friendly quit which I gave him. I figured because it was a friendly quit on his part that I would automatically win. But that didn’t happen. The game records were not saved. What should I have done?

@JEEZY-E_PSN and @yankblan_PSN both have good answers.

Normally if it's a long game with no hits and my opponent asks for one; then I'll give it to them.

What inning was it? Not that it matters; but if it was in the first three innings I may have taken it. Only thing you have to worry about is that I think even if the game doesn't register, cause of the FQ, you may still lose some energy for your pitchers.

Another thing you can do, if you want to be a [censored], is when they offer it don't hit anything and just let that screen there.

Even though they offered it; their timer still counts down and sometimes you can catch them 'napping' and force their timer to run out or deplete it alot.

And once they offer, whether you decline or they take back the offer; they can't offer it again.

However, you do have to watch out when refusing them. As some people have this 'phobia' that if you refuse a Friendly Quit; the game will screw you and the RNG will kick in for your opponent.

Not saying that it WILL happen; but some have said they experienced that.

Happened to me. After refusing a friendly quit in the first my defense took a dump. 5 errors, lost 5-0

I think the title was fine.
