As someone who uses timing I still havent figured out if vision is a good thing because the outer area of green is guaranteed foul balls while just outside of green is often good contact

@Malabarista42_XBL Thank you! You just saved so much of my time!

Agreed, such a pain having to individually select the players I don’t want to collect every time I update it

The Chase cards are literally the only ones behind a pay wall lol…So because 3 or 4 cards are that way you think the game is pay to win? 😂

And I would argue that every Diamond Duo pack is a paywall. Yes you can earn those packs for free in programs but let's be honest and admit that the overwhelming majority of players will never earn any 99's from those packs. The odds are not in our favor. For those of us who have not been lucky the only way to get them is with a, usually significant, outlay of stubs.

Using pack luck as a argument against something being a paywall is a pretty weak argument in my opinion.

Forty Four 99 overall diamonds released so far in Diamond Duo packs is more than 3 or 4 cards. You may think that people are exaggerating the issue and that is fine but exaggerating your position to counter them is no different.

Of course maybe in the end we all have varying definitions of what exactly a pay wall is.

I was off for just about 2 months when MLB dropped. Played like crazy finishing both TA programs very quickly and reaching the free spin very quickly. I have gotten countless Diamond Duo packs and have yet to pull a Diamond of any kind from them. Not a 99 nor an 85. I keep waiting thinking the next one will be the one but nada.

I have had good pack luck this year though. Pulled Trout on release, WBC 99 Ohtani, 99 Darvish, Mantle, etc... just never from a Duo pack.

@Malabarista42_XBL said in Your game has been forfeited:

I was just in a tied Events game and my opponent paused the game and ran the clock out. When it hits zero I got a message that my game had been forfeited and I got the loss. Known bug?

So a few days ago, I ran the pause clock out and was shocked to get the win with a 0-4 score. Now I just had a game where I went up 1-0 and then the game hesitated and then came up with the message 'lost connection with opponent' indicating they quit. But somehow I got the loss. I guess it falls under the category of the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away. But still annoying they can't clean up this issue.

@Malabarista42_XBL said in Pitchers for the new Moonshot event?:

I'm sorry if this is already a post, but can anyone recommend pitchers for the moonshot event? Who's glitchy for everyone?

Caleb Kilian, basically any pitcher with a sinker/cutter pitch mix, Tim Hill in the pen is a must.

@PurpleTRD_PSN said in Missed out on a spin because I was in a showdown:

every time you hit 25k you have togo into the program so the circle fills and it will spin.

This. I was playing some quick Conquest games and noticed that my wheel wasn't filling up. After about the 5th time I exited the screen and went into the Programs tab and selected the Season 1 tab.

That sucker filled up with 20K that must been banked.

Also, I've noticed that if you do get the animation and spin after you accept the reward of you don't exit the tab but go over to PXP Progress; even though you just earned PXP (if you played a game that allowed it) it's always blank.

Happened when I was trying to figure is the Charisma program. Never thought to check through the Squad tab, before entering a game, but I completed the Program about 2 Conquest games prior to when I actually checked.

@Tylerslikewhoa_XBL said in Is it possible to get homeruns to center anymore?:

Hit 4 last game. Just wish they said something beyond that’s off the batters eye when you do.

Well they can start saying my personal favorite "if its fair its gone"

I got burnt out from grinding last year that I would
Spend 90% of my week grinding for new cards and only 10% playing ranked with those new cards.

Decided this year to not do that. I’m only grinding the monthly’s which isn’t so bad this year

To get the massive 99s I got no chance. And have no desire too. I’m not a fan of this route with the sets being locked in. It’s, just like Fifa causing everyone to pretty much get the same team early doors.

Blows my mind how people are able to play against the cpu for ungodly amount of hours just to obtain cards or buy stubs to rip packs and buy theses 99s. I’ll get bored of playing the cpu after a couple games

I'd say it is probably because people have different ideas of what fun is and also have different ways of how they have fun with this game. People play the game for different reasons just like some people play DD and some play other modes exclusively. If your mind is blown by such a simple concept, I feel bad for you!
Let me guess.. you have babe Ruth, ken Griffey jr, 99 Derek jeter and all those 99s already… I feel bad for you!

You feel bad for someone while you’re clowning them on a baseball video game forum on a Saturday night? Please think about the irony.
