there was no point to this thread...L
and yes there was no point to me commenting either
I wasted my time reading both comments. Give me an L as well.
@go4stros25_psn said in Thank you SDS DEVs:
I wish people would stop letting corporations hide behind covid. They still released a broken product a month late and for full price. They knew there would be more people than ever playing and they didn't stress test their servers. So for the first 3 weeks you just couldn't play. They have read the comments for months about contact swings and ppp. They allowed and still allow so many people to exploit and cheat the game with no consequence.
I'm sorry, but a gameplay patch 2 months into an already shortened game cycle doesn't warrant me praising them.
I enjoy the game and I'm glad they patched what they did. But I don't understand why we as gamers allow these companies to sell us copy and pasted broken garbage and then when they finally fix it we are supposed to bow down. Call me crazy but I feel like these million dollar companies should be able to sell us a working product on day one or they shouldn't be selling them at all.
I find a little humor a Stros fan would complain about people cheating the game.
@huntydad2021_psn said in Server Stability 4/21/21:
Thank you. As a light user compared to many, I have lost progress in several missions and such. I hope that you will decide to provide some good packs as an apology. Not everyone who supports this game is a "gamer" who plays hours and hours, so for us, to lose the time for a showdown and several other missions, makes it more difficult to complete programs. Thank you for your consideration of such an offering.
They've given out packs/stubs in previous years for the same issue. I'm sure they'll be doing it again since this is the worst it's ever been.

Perhaps 1 game is too small of a sample size.
Nah. 1 game is not small with those stats. RNG is boosted to the lower ranked team. How can I beat someone ranked 150 points higher than me then lose to someone 75 points lower than me? Both games were comeback wins in the 9th.
SDS, screw hitting. Please fix pitching (accuracy) and guys with no bunting skills laying down perfect bunts every time.
Riddle me this SDS. Guy with 35 bunt rating lays them down perfectly, but a pitcher with 85 control & bb/9 misses the target 70% of the time.
I tried that. Didn’t have anything to complain about. Turned it back on. Started complaining again.

Of course 1 game is too small of a sample size. The point is that the more games you play with those stats, the more likely you're going to come on top.
That shouldn’t be the case. If he out smashes the guy 3-1, he should win. If the guy strikes out 20 times, he’s not a good hitter and shouldn’t be rewarded. RNG knew it and adjusted accordingly to help the guy who couldn’t touch the ball 75% of the time.
@nymets1987 said in Another Brave in McGriff:
People were kidding about this yesterday and it’s real tomorrow. What’s the deal SDS? Another Brave? Why?
Finally showing some love for the best team in the 90’s.
It's not as fun this year. It's such a crapshoot on who will get screwed in each game. I'm hitting homers with balls outside the PCI and the other guy boots routine grounds in the bottom of the 9th to lose. Ever since I changed to analog pitching, it hasn't been as bad. Hitting is just a mess. Law of physics does not apply to this year's game.

Air Yordán!!
Nice 3-run homer!

BANG (from the distance)
I'd 2nd this. I didn't know I could buy the guys on the market. Glad to know I don't have to grind for everything since I don't have the time to do it.
Can we get some communication about this game? All these posts are nothing but negative. The subhumans at corporate refuse to listen and take action about the state of MLB The Show. Is there anything being done to fix the game?
don't do it, SDS is trying to deflect from the 120hz/gameplay conversations. fight the power!
@Kovz88 said in Found & reported yet another bug...:
I'm not saying that its not a bug bit if you accidentally backed out when it asked if you want to bring a new pitcher in for the position player then that player is now on the mound and has to pitch to 3 players. While it sucks that would be a mistake on your end. If that's not what happened then thats a really crappy way to lose a game.
Even if we back out by mistake, we should still have the option to go back into the menu. That’s on SDS for not giving us that option.
SDS decided to adjust the programming so it’s “fair” to everyone. I’m not great, but I shouldn’t lose to people who strike out 18 times in a game or 20 games under .500.

@bonion said in Casual player vs consecutive yearly player:
Everyone on these forums wants user input to widen the skill gap, myself included. My question is do you really think the % of casual player is > then the % of consecutive yearly player. (Most of us on forum are) If SDS has more casual players then yes the RNG is gonna prevail over input. I just don’t see how the player pool favors the casual? I see arguments of the game is too hard and those people will leave. If you truly love baseball, and are starting the game for the first time...IMO I wouldn’t give up if I’m getting my a$$ kicked. I know the game of baseball inside out, played since I could grip a “fat bat” at age 4. If I’m getting whooped I’m gonna fix what I’m doing wrong and “git better”. If baseball is my 3rd favorite sport then yeah I’d prob walk away from the game and play madden or 2k instead.
My point is I just don’t understand how the casual outweighs the go-hard on DD (the most player based gm mode)
IMO if your a casual you prob shouldn’t be expecting to get much further then P Race and should stick to H2H if you enjoy playing others online
My money is on there being more returning players to the game then first time players. I would imagine the returning player to want user input to prevail over RNG
If there wasn't any RNG, then you would know if you're improving. There are other options in the game to play for the causal fan. I use to be one of them.
I wish there was no RNG and let the divisions play themselves until they move up or down. It's stupid for someone whos ranked 795 playing against a 675 and lose because of some nonsense.
@BenDeRosa11 said in I have 200k stubs. What should I do?:
I pulled Garret Cole the other day and now have 200k stubs. Should I buy a bunch of packs and hope for the best or do live series.
Don't ever buy packs on hope. Too many horror stories.
@Speedy44 said in Mantle hit event HR 455 ft to the deepest part of Polo Grounds:
It was a thing of beauty. Ive hit it that far in a home run derby and stuff but not an actual online game.
Not to be a ball buster, but you didn’t hit it to the deepest part. Pretty sure you have to hit it at least 485 to clear center.
@oldgamingdad727 said in I see what you are talking about now:
I ventured online. I have been pretty exclusively an offline DD player. But I need the online points for the 4th inning program. It was a JOKE. I smoked hanging curves only to have them be routine flyballs, the baserunning, suck, the fielding suck. This game is garbage. And that's being kind. Well, online it's garbage, offline it's fun. Do better!
Welcome to the dark side. You're one of us now...
