This mode is so rage inducing, simply not worth the time or stubs. I played a game on Veteran immediately following a Showdown and there’s no way they put that mode on Vet. CPU fielders all have gold gloves too. [censored] this mode.

@sean_87__psn said in When are we getting a “next gen” game?:

They would have to use a physics engine to do it right. No sports game company currently uses a true physics based engine. If they did, you would not see the rating scale. For example, you would see everything measured in inches, feet, seconds, mph etc

Dude no one cares that much

@mattyoh111_psn said in I’m done with Showdown:

First time eh?

I just don’t want them to tell me it’s on Vet difficulty when it’s clearly not.

I will happily use this glitch if SDS isn’t going to give me all the double XP I grinded for

The first baseball game I’ve been able to play in 15 years since MVP 05, hell yeah I took Friday off!

Yea it hasn’t been and I was just going to post it still isn’t. One day we will log in and it will work. It really sucks because I’m playing conquest now and would be nice to get these 5500-6k games.

You know what’s funny is that they could probably retroactively double all of those games still and they won’t.

Yea but without it the program should still be fairly easy to complete. It would just be cool to get it. By the time it’s working I’ll have all offline stuff complete which is a bummer.

At least I can boost some cards with parallels.

“Fairly easy?” Are you serious? I’ve been no lifing the [censored] out of this game and am still only at 430k

During this week I was able to access the practice mode in the tech test app and was playing through some games in the options explorer to get better, because those offline modes were still available on the app. Looks like it’s all gone now though

The circle change is even filthier. I just set down my controller until two strikes and was able to do it

I'm a new player too, I got the 84.99 edition (not sure what it's called). I had that same question as you and heard that one was the best value, and I definitely wanted to play that opening weekend. I don't think I could take seeing everyone talk about it and not be able to play it lol.

430k. I’d be close to done with it if double XP actually worked.

@b00std_mark_ii said in Running into 102 MPH pitchers every game is fun!:

It seems to be one or the other if your playing on all Star it's a slugfest and your playing on hall of fame it's a pitchers duel regardless of who's on the mound most of the time

It's not fun, is what it is. If someone who knew nothing about baseball and MLB just watched this game, they'd assume dudes were throwing over 100 every single game. I just don't really know what to do anymore, I'm not sure how to have fun without going up against Kopech, Chapman, Tanana, Dibble, Feller, etc. every single game.

Attendance was 6,883

City of Seattle and state of Washington puts an extreme limit on attendance.

Ooooof

Oh...you expected SDS to actually know something about baseball?

JK. Ranked was fun for a month, now I'm facing 102 mph pitchers every fukking game. Oh well. Not sure how to spend my time in this game now and actually enjoy my time. You'd think SDS would not want every game to be a pitcher's duel and actually give people the chance to hit the ball. That would require some good development though!

How the hell did you already get Chipper

I'm pretty critical, but I will say:
-better soundtrack
-I like working in the MLB unis into DD, some teams just need more variety
-Game feels fairly smooth

Yeah the one where he goes Whobla whoblabla you rabla rablah blah is pure fire.

Lol what kind of song is that?

It's some rapper mumbling I have no idea wtf he's trying to say but it's annoying and to me that's what it sounds like.

Lol I know that song you’re talking about, it’s awful

Has SDS ever had a worse rollout than it seems like this year’s is? I’m curious, as this is my first year playing since like 2013

“Years past”

The question isn't 'Where are you?' it should be 'Where SHOULD you be?'

Cry harder they still can't here you in the back

Simp harder for a game company

I will happily use this glitch if SDS isn’t going to give me all the double XP I grinded for
