I waited for the first time, didn't hope on as soon as the content dropped. It's always slow at content drop so just stayed off and picked up leaves instead, something I definitely didn't want to do but chores come before fun

spin the wheel, get lucky and get chase pack, cry when chase pack is 85 LS

@OlSkoolE63_MLBTS YW

The RNG online kills this game for me. On top of that the throw meters are too slow this year when fielding. Can get u into trouble. But I’ve seen countless RNG moments online nobody is going to convince me otherwise.

I personally didnt mind set collections in 23 I got pretty much all of the rewards for collections as offline player... not sure I will earn any this year might get to Leiter

That includes pitchers who are switch hitters

See you tomorrow!

Haha I’ve said the same thing to many, many people. Games uninstalled brotha. Skill means absolutely [censored] in this years game. Not for me

real life over videogames anyday mate you will probably be thankful for your decision - i play so little that it rarely bothers me

That’s what I’m thinking too. It’s not mentally healthy anymore for me. It makes me furious. I played pro ball, and this game has done a lot to keep me apart of the game(in a weird way). But this years version is so off, it’s only hurting me now.

This game certainly can push your buttons. The scripted comebacks/RNG, superman dives, foul offs until they hit a HR, the AI common/bronze pitchers painting at will, the bs odds on packs. It's maddening. I made the mistake of buying this game late and knew it would be the same stale game they've trotted out for years, nearly a decade. I tried to refund in the PSN but knew they wouldnt budge

You can't get refunds for any digital game....

Not true, I've done it before. No Man's Sky, full refund for digital copy.

Ok, but I heard you have to do it within 2 weeks or so.

I did mine within a day, nada. Again depends on which person you get

Dude No Man's Sky/Hello Games should be the business model of every game studio on the planet. Terrible release, but didn't milk it. They released update after update and made a crazy comeback AT NO EXTRA COST TO THE BUYER.

They are freakin legends for that alone

You must live in Puerto Rico or the Dominican

Nah I live in Alabama, but have great internet and I play hardwired.

Alabama and great internet are not two things that coexist

Hey, at least it’s not Mississippi.

Edited. I’m on good behavior after my last ban. I can’t say negative things about my southern friends with a certain political perspective that I don’t subscribe to.

Just curious, I am in my game for World Series tied 0-0 in the 3rd. What happens if neither of us quit and the maintenance happens? Is it just random at that point?

What maintenance?

Theres server maintenance at 4:00 AM PT tonight

Ahh, usually they announce that but I didn't see anything on this site.

Happy for the Braves, as a kid of the 90s and an NL guy, I had to root for them 5 times in the WS and only got the 1. Glad they had a bounce back season and a strong performance in all 3 rounds against great teams. Nobody can downplay their championship after beating the Brewers, Dodgers and Astros.

DEFINITELY!!!!! I NEVER EVER thought they would get past the Dodgers with the Rotation & Line-Up LA has. But ATL did upset them to win the series & advance. With HOU it was really 50/50 IMO with who will take the series. But I am happy to see ATL take it all. Congrats to them

Just because they were betting underdogs doesn’t mean that what they did was an upset. Most people don’t actually pay any attention to the intangibles. Like how they matchup position by position. Or how these teams matched up in the regular season. Going into that series with the Dodgers, the Braves were a comparatively similar offensive team to the Dodgers and a way better defensive team than the Dodgers. The seasons stats prove both of those statements. The only aspect the Dodgers had on paper was the pitching. And the Braves dominated them in the NLCS offensively and on the mound. So was it really an upset or was it a case of people looking at regular seasons win and losses and assuming the Braves were the inferior team. The Braves run differential in the regular season showed the Braves were a much better team then their record might indicate. That run differential was that of a nearly 100 win team not an 88 win team.

Just talking strictly offense, the braves were absolutely the underdogs.

Here’s everyone that started a game for the dodgers in the NLCS:
Betts - 131 wRC+ in the regular season
Seager - 147 wRC+
Smith - 130 wRC+
Taylor - 113 wRC+
Bellinger - 48 wRC+
Trea Turner - 142 wRC+
Justin Turner - 127 wRC+
Pollock - 137 wRC+
Lux - 91 wRC+
For an average wRC+ of 118

And here’s everyone that started a game for the Braves in the NLCS:
Albies - 107 wRC+
Freeman - 135 wRC+
Riley - 135 wRC+
Swanson - 98 wRC+
d’Arnaud - 78 wRC+ (only played 60 games though)
Duvall - 103 wRC+
Pederson - 94 wRC+
Rosario - 98 wRC+
For an average wRC+ of 106

A difference of 12 wRC+ is not significant. It’s a slight offensive advantage but certainly not at a prohibitive rate. And your stats are from a season long snapshot not from the trading deadline forward where all those players were significantly better than there seasonal totals. The Braves were not the same team post All Star break compared to pre break. So much of what your saying is taken out of context and comparisons cannot be made to the early portion of the season. Also you fail to include Acuna if your making a full season comparison who had a higher wRC+ than anybody on that Dodgers team. Also my post mentions that they were offensively similar not better. And based on what you just posted they were comparable. Slightly less wRC+ but have the Dodgers in other categories like power production. They were a lot closer than most people really think

While I'm a huge Braves fan, I really didn't think we would get past the Dodgers because of their pitching. The Dodgers were hot after the all-star break and the Braves bullpen was always suspect. The braves also struck out a lot. The biggest factor was clutch hitting and working the counts. It seemed like everything just clicked for them at the right time. Thank God!

You know the Braves only struck out 45 more times over the season than the Dodgers. Like I said in previous posts the Braves were a lot more comparable offensively to the Dodgers than most people give them credit for.

Tell him to fork over some stubs

@oreorockstar_psn said in Gehrig or Wagner:

All about what you want? Ruth is coming too. Gehrig is a beast, but not sure how much better he is than Helton, Aaron, Vlad Jr. Wagner is the best lefty in the game , but how much better than the other guys and how often do you use him?

Yeah my end game line up always has Babe at first and Wagner in the pen. Lou is always on my bench. In all actuality, if the game will play right, I’ll keep playing to 30 wins and just get both. Hope you are well friend

Constantly? Thats not on SDS at that point. Freeze offs should never happen, sure, but I haven't had one in at least 2 months and I don't exactly have top tier internet

At least you didn't get the loss though. Look at it as the glass is half full!

Yep. They're always messing with sliders. Don't get me started on how sds release mantle and thomas both play below their power stats.

Someone went off the misinterpretations of people in this forum instead of looking at the source and see what SDS had actually said.

Some missions you can do in extra innings for player programs. It will indicate where to play. It'll either say BR, Events and Ranked seasons or any type of play that's not with a friend. So extra innings or v. CPU are added. Just highlight the mission and in the body it'll tell you everywhere you can complete it
