Pete Rose is banned from baseball but 2017-2019 Houston Astros team is still allowed to play baseball, makes sense to me.

My best advice is to get a year's supply of Hot Pockets and Red Bulls and get ready for non realistic baseball gameplay, and you might develop an addiction for buying virtual cards of dead players cause you need them on your DD team to compete with other teams of dead players.

What the heck, hitting this year is amazing, the best it has ever been.

Real men don't need a PCI for baseball, if i need to play a game where I point and aim I'd play a Sniper game

Is that a ransom note?

Pure Analog Stride hitting is always the way to go when playing The Show, it seems more natural and doesn't involve aiming at a target like its Duck Hunt or button mashing X like its a baseball game from the 90s. Its an actual swing of a baseball bat but I'm sure you know that already, its just that causal PCI noobs don't understand that. But to get to your question..no, once you practice for a while and play about 20 games you'll get a feel for the hitting and you'll realize when you hit a high fly ball or hit into a double play its your fault...don't be discourage like a casual noob, just keep practicing and take swings and it will all come together.

Another day, another DD casual getting triggered by their own noobness. What most of you complaining Karens don't realize is that if your only experience with The Show is online stuff and DD stuff its going to be hot garbage because default settings are basically for an arcade experience. If you play this game offline with Franchise with tested Sliders, which might take many hours to adjust, this game plays as a very good Simulation of baseball. Most of you never get to experience this cause all you're concerned about is collecting cards and building your silly All-Star teams and when something goes wrong you come on here and yap and yap that the game is broken, when all that's happening is your lack of practice/skill isn't there because you don't put in the work and you're stuck playing at Default game settings.

Cards! Card! You're concerned about Cards!. Who gives a [censored] flippin [censored] about Cards, fix the gameplay like increase the pitch speed and fix the throwing errors. Cards!! he said card!. This is a Baseball game not Pokemon.

Online play is turning this game into a steaming pile of garbage, this year's game is way too easy and its because online people want to have team averages in the .600s and football scores....that's video game baseball. And for the noobs that's gonna say "but its a video game gooble gooble gooble" yes, we know noobs, but some of us want to play Baseball in a video game that leans towards a Simulation...sorta like Microsoft Flight Sims or Racing Sims. Baseball already has an arcady one, its called RBI Baseball, it gets released every year. So my suggestion is to make two games, one to satisfy Online people and one for Simulation/Franchise people, fine maybe it doesn't have to be two games just release like a DLC for Sim players..I don't care paying an extra 50 bucks for it but please stop dumbing this game down.

@gohardgrandpa said in The show sucks:

For the love of god practice more if you have trouble hitting. The last thing they need to do is make it easier

Gamers these days want their hands held and demand instant gratification, the rise of noobs is real...like 15 years ago games were tough as hell...you actually had to practice to get good now these casuals want to be amazing after 5 hours of playing.

Because you play DD, and making SDS take resources away from making the game more realistic.

Obvious choice is David Schneider's mustache.

The hitting is better in 20, more in tuned with user skill...you prolly like 19 because its for beginners prolly...I guess we all had to start from somewhere. Keep practicing and maybe when you're gonna enough you'll graduate to 20.

Haha non genders...are Cuttlefish and Garder Snakes reading on these forums?

New commentators or just new commentary situations?

Tune in and find out

That’s what I like to hear!

I don't know how you guys could play with commentary on, I tried it for like the first time ever since playing The Show from 2011's to now and its annoying as hell, I had to turn it off after 1 inning. Doesn't it break your concentration? I play at pitch speeds maxed and Legend hitting and I need zen like concentration...I even notice when I zone out and day dream for an inning or two I strike out a lot so having to hear 3 guys say the same things over and over as a pitch is hurling at you is F-ing distracting.

@XxDeathReyxX said in Why was guess pitch removed?:

Yeah. Takes a real warrior to play competitive video game baseball.

Who says anything about competitive baseball?, I'm not playing Esports baseball or anything I'm trying to play at the highest level I can with hard work and practice...you know a sense of self acomplishment that's not fake and nooby or rage quitting cause I stuck out 4 times in one game and saying the game is broken...sorry I don't have a loser's mentality...if something is hard you try harder!

Dud,e that's cause the developers are looking and laughing at all the people complaining about the fielding being bad, which its totally fine....I've never seen an outfielder not play a ball properly. Or pitch speeds being too fast, which it should be a bit faster.

"I will try to make this quick" he says

Astros are done!!! sell the team to some another city that won't cheat!....Montreal needs another team.

Oh Lord you are still around? You get tired of being Tyler and come out of retirement? LOL

When the world needs Joshjays, he comes out.

You coming out because you ran out of Hot Pockets huh

I'm not a DD online casual noob, why would I eat hot pockets? I'm a sophisticated Franchise player, I drink lattes and eat cheese strings.
