Holy Christ. If you go through my game history in battle royale I’ve been facing all the top players in the world. It’s ridiculous. Battle royale has the most unfair matchups. And on top of that hitting is really bad after the update. Why am I playing such high level people in battle royale? I’m fairly new to this game still and I’m playing against people who have gotten GOAT banners at last twice. It’s insane. Is anyone having the same issue with matchmaking?

What y’all crying about today

Not crying at all just an observation. You can't honestly say the hitting mechanic this year is great can you?

He’s a sweat, and rides sds cok. Don’t listen to him

Battle royale is for people who are terrible at the game and get cheap home runs on early hits and hit bloopers in the outfields row rely on wins. Lucky you. You get 3 innings

SDS nerfs perfect swings and allows early
Hits to be home runs so [censored] players can spend more money on players. The players with the highest overall team win because of the games probability on the bottom left hand corner.

Hitting in this game is the worst it’s ever been.
You either hit a just early home run or a perfect perfect line drive up the middle for a single.

Pitchers are absolutely useless and sinkers are the meta. Fielders are stuck in mud and the shift is over powered this year, fielders are forced to be super slow during the shift to make the opponent have more extra bass hits. Every game is super close because SDS implanted the winning probability to impact the success of the other team. Hitting is completely RNG this year due to cross play and profit grabs for more purchases incentives. Skill doesn’t matter in ranked seasons, CPU on the other hand feels silky smooth and responsive.

Wow perfect lineouts, warning track power galore. Weak opposite field base hits so many [censored] pop ups holy [censored]. The winning probability thing at the bottom right hand corner feels like it has a huge impact on the outcome of the game. Why has every single game I’ve played been super close and so many comeback hits in later innings? SDS tweaked hitting right after launch and it feels so much weaker. Good contact is still good contact, no reason for it to be weak soft ground balls even when I’m underneath the ball. Why are fielders running in mud and not locking onto the ball.

Something feels incredibly fishy with the timing aspect, it’s like a near perfect time frame otherwise you’re [censored]. Is anyone else seeing the new update? Feels like absolute garbage.

I feel the game plays ok, but the past few days I’ve noticed a fail on hitting and a buff to garbage swings by bad players…. They want those dollars, yet you could ru. Out a team of golds or silvers and still get the RNG win. I don’t support a money grab but I think they docked with it to allow dogshat players to compete

That’s exactly what they are doing. They buffed terrible contact so the newbies on their Xbox and switches can get easy hits. More hits = more probability that money is spent on the game.

How any freeze offs are we going to have until SDS fixes their dog [censored] game? How many very early home runs are we going to have? FIX HITTING FIX YOUR SERVERS.

How the hell am I facing maxed out prestige diamond teams when I’m only 2-2 in spring training? Are these Smurf accounts that just spend endless amounts of money? How am I vs these teams when I don’t have a single diamond on my team. It’s not even fun at this point.

If you don't have a diamond on your team then you must have just started playing tonight.

Nah I just have a job and don’t spend money on fake baseball cards

Hitting is absolute [censored], you hit good good perfect perfect line out or fly out every time. And early just lates are opposite home runs.

@parradox-cam_psn said in You can’t defend this gameplay:

Every year it’s the same issues brought up, captured on video clips, shared with the public, you can see it while watching YouTubers…yet they refuse to make any changes, besides trying to hide it by removing feedback. Hitting is forgiving to give the player the sense of accomplishment, Diamond fielders ruining a game on routine plays, good hits are at the mercy of RNG, pitching is wild unless you use only 1 interface, directional/timing hitters get bailed out by RNG. It’s the same thing year after year.

Players who defend this gameplay only do so until a clip gets posted somewhere that clearly shows what makes this game shady and then they are no where to be found.

Early = home run!

I’ve been playing conquest every since the new update and I’ve been noticing perfect perfects with my prince fielder 99 ( ovr) have been dying at the warning track. I know this happens to people online in the past, but I want others opinions to see if there was a silent nerf on power this update. See for yourself on DD

Opponent has invalid roster.
I cannot complete the 4th inning program showdown and I’ve restarted at least four times now with no luck. What in the actual [censored] is happening

Jesse Winker has such poor power, on perfect perfects his balls die at the warning track and Brandon Crawford’s line drives just go straight into the infielders glove. Austin meadows has poor contact and his hits just find a way to becomes errors instead of base hits. I swear there is something in the CPU that prevents these cards from players getting these missions done. Unbelievable.

I have a wired connection PS5. I find when I match up against ps4s and Xbox’s my internet connection just goes to [censored]. I get massive frame delays when they pitch, and the outfield king animations are always buggy and slow which count me baserunning mistakes

Someone buys a baseball video game to listen to its soundtrack?

Please show me where i said that. I'll wait.

I'm waiting.

Still Waiting, kid.

Well?

Exactly,

Oh and since you struggle with recognition of elements in your environment... music plays literally the entire time you aren't in a game. You're not in a game all the time.

I am still waiting btw, kid.

These kids always get threatened when someone proposes a difference in opinion so they always think that a complaint means someone is crying. Hate those guys

I pitched a no hitter and my manager scrapped me from the line up for 1 month.

I’m just terrible at pin point, I can’t even hit the perfect spot. I’m sticking with analog
