@cobird8 said in Bought game late....Can you earn 1st(2nd) inning rewards ??:
Thanks fellas - keep ya updated
Unfortunately you can't get any of the 1st or 2nd Inn Bosses, right now, unless you do one of the Collections missions assoctaed with that Program or you can just buy one off the Market.
Maybe towards the end of the year; they'll add more options to get them. (Choice packs on later Inning Programs).
First, I know a win is a win; but ive had 4 people quit on me already before I even got an at bat.
I just wish they were in the same run. Lol And I wasn't trying for specific H2H missions.
On a side note, second draft that I got to pick Finest Ramirez.
If I'll get a chance to pick him EVERY draft; I'll gladly play this mode.
@Harryhukari33 said in TA/ FOTF/FS progress:
For me the must have FotFs:
Best bat: Olson
Best overall: Moncada/Olson/Torres depending on team needsOther notable must haves: Tatis, Gallo, snell, Correa
Best FS card: Gorman, and it isn’t even close.
Since I already have Albies and Torres, 2nd and SS are covered. That's why I was looking at Seager for 3rd. I know the other two, and Tatis, can be plugged into 3rd, but I'd like an actual 3rd baseman there (and as I type this, I realize that I'm two XBH with 3rd basemen away from BO Matthews). But if I go with a FOTF squad, then I need Seager or Moncada.
Probably will go with which ever of rhe above two has the most useful FA player. (Although I like to looks of that Trammell from SD).
Attempt to finish up the Evo Pr9gram for Eddie Matthews.
I'm at 40 pts now, so I'm attempting the XBHs eith 3rd baseman online.
That gets you 10pts. Which gets you to 50; which is max for the BO Matthews.
But why is that mission, and the offline 10 hits with Braves players, which also gives you 10 pts, repeatable?
Ummm, you CANT go past 50 pts and you CANT do these until Stage 1 (30pts) is unlocked.
Oh wait, never mind. You could do them twice if you didn't want to do the last set of Moments.
@Kovz88 said in TA/ FOTF/FS progress:
I'd say the Cardinals are definitely worth doing for Gorman in stage 2. Also one you wouldn't necessarily think of first is the Marlins, their stage 2 TA card is pretty good.
Gotcha
@DriveByTrucker17 said in TA/ FOTF/FS progress:
Moncada, Santana, Olson, Gallo are all fantastic as well.
If you don’t have 95 Snell, I’d get his 89 too.
Forgot about those. I don't particularly like LH pitchers that only have 4 pitches. However, I wanted that Xavior Edwards; so I'm already half way there.
Just gotta wait until after the weekend. My Silvers I was using jumped up in price.
Just played my first BR game. Lost on a few errors. However, I had fun.
And by the way, Finest Ramirez is a [censored] cheat code! 2 for 2 both hits were no doubters.
Got to 50pts for Soto, Albies, Ohtani, and Toress. Looking at maybe Bell, Seager, and Tatis next.
Any others that are worthwhile?
And should I do 2 more exchanges for each of the above, to hit 70; or just try stat grinding/Showdowns?

I was getting to the point where I was getting absurdly frustrated with the game to the point I wanted to stop playing. My only goal in the game was Mickey Mantle at that point but still didn't want to play.
Then I stopped caring and started playing because its Baseball. Immediately went back to enjoying the game.
Idk how anyone can enjoy this product. Seriously one of the worst video games I've ever played.
Oh look, fastball right down the [censored] middle. I don't even move the pci, get "good" timing, and popup result? The outcome is entirely generated by the cpu.
You using directional hitting?
Zone
Edit: Just won a couple BR games in a row, I hit EVERYTHING. Even balls I shouldn't have. Then played a game where good times fastballs down the middle were popped out. NOTHING was a hit even when I squared up. Meanwhile my opponent was smashing okay-just early's and replaying the HR. Garbage product.
I'm confused. 3 hours ago you said you were done playing. Then now you just stated that you just finished a few BR games.
If you were ACTUALLY done playing; why did you play more games?
Good one. Since you're so clever, explain the game?
Ummm. You're supposed to throw a round ball to the other player in hopes that he doesn't hit it. However, the ironic part is that on his end, he's supposed to hit what you throw. It's MAGIC!
So how do you explain what I said in the original post though? Are you saying this is a skill based game? If so, how?
I don't need to defend the game. If someone isnt having fun playing the game; then DON'T PLAY.

@maskedgrappler said in First post on a gaming forum ever:
Like with pitcher control issues. SDS knows its a problem. There's no way they haven't heard about it. So it serves no purpose to post a thread calling them names everytime you hang a slider on perfect release.
They know about it. They're either working on it, or are happy with it the way it is. Calling them names or questioning their talent isn't going to get it fixed any faster.
You never know. They may not do anything from the first 0ne million posts about game play, but when numher one million and one hits...... Look Out! Lol
@WillTheThrill_7 said in Talk about cheap and bush league.:
By quick pitching do you mean using a slidestep? Lol
No. Within seconds another pitch waa crossing the platw after one registered.
I can tell when someone is spamming rhe X button. I didn't even have time to call time out. Holding R2 to slow him down for a pitch or two was impossible, and I couldn't even bring up my quick menu.
He threw a total of 3 pitches in a matter of seconds.
Just think how many Diamonds you could've bought with 290K
Put in buy orders for 4 sepwrate players. Put in enough orders to get the 50K exchange, for FOTF Albies, done 5 times.
That mainly gave me Albies, SP Wilson, so Bronze and Silver Braves, 2000 stubs, and 3 Team Affinty packs.
Total cost was 19,042. 17,042 if you count the 2K I got in the reward path.
That seems pretty [censored] cheap.
First off, I'll start by saying that I know I'll be out manned. Butsince I need 3 XBHs, online, with 3rd basemen; I decide to try the new Event.
First game I get matched up with a Diamond 67 player that is sporting a Was banner.
You know he's put in some effort (playing or buying) to have AS Soon AS in the lineup. Also has Mantle, but I think it was his Rookie card, and a full squad of Diamond hitters.
Also is pitching with Robin Roberts.
I figure I'm going to get throttled, since my rotation is all Bronzes. But I don't care, I want the 3 XBHs.
Naturally he takes a 2-0 lead going ibyo the bottom of the 1st.
He then proceeds to do what I could only think if as quick pitching. (I couldn't even move my PCI before the ball was already crossing the plate).
I luck out and get 1 run, but make the 3rd out trying to stretch a double out if a base hit with LS Eduardo Escobar (need the XBH).
I luck out and get him out in the 2nd without giving up a run.
Then bottom if the second he paused and I assume he's bringing in an RP (he had Lee Smith and Gagne in his pen)
But no, he rolls out with BO Gibson! And has BO Leiter warming up as his lefty!
Seriously! I am running a 78 OVR rated team with Golds, Silvers, and Bronze players and you want to bring in two starting pitchers to close out your 3 inning game!
Amd it's because of people like this that I don't like playing H2H.
But to the op @xM1SFiiT
As @SchnauzerFace stated; I have seen numerous posts about this. While I haven't list connection my self; I've noticed latency at certain times, especially after new content is released.
Although people will come on here and blame your internet; it's got to be on SDS's side.
@SchnauzerFace said in Disconnecting from the show servers all year?:
Don’t worry, though — some toolbag with a blue jays avatar will be in shortly to tell you it’s your internet’s fault because it’s never happened to him.
Lol
Just got to 40pts on the Eddie Matthews Evo Program and in my last, of the 3 free, pack I pull a Diamond.
But I'm confused. It came up as:
National League
Closing Pitcher
Sig Series
John Franco
I didn't know you could get past Headliners from reg packs.
I'm assuming he's a keeper.
Any particular reason his Live Series card has 4 pitches in his repitore; yet his Prospect card only has three pitches?
