Can we stop with the BS that this year's game is worse than 19? Obviously 20 has it's flaws like every video game ever created, but it's easily an upgrade over 19. No I am not an SDS burner account, I'm just sharing my opinion like everyone else.

Being able to pick your starter is fine, they just need to get rid of being able to bring starters out of the bullpen.

As someone with ADHD, I have a hard time focusing on the PCI and the ball at the same time, and that's where pure analog hitting comes up clutch. Making this change made me a much better player both online and offline, and I definitely recommend it for anyone with bad hand-eye coordination or anybody who struggles with focusing on two things at the same time.

Thank god we are a little over a month away from 21... Just had back to back ranked games ( one of which if I won I would have made it to Division Series for just the 2nd time ever... ) where I hit perfect/perfect lineouts that were caught right at the wall in dead center. The first one would have given me the lead in the 9th and the second one would have extended my lead to 5-1. Of course in the second game my opponent ended up hitting 2 homers in the next half inning to take the lead. I've definitely improved as a hitter over the years and it's frustrating when my practice isn't rewarded...

Absolutely no context given in this rant. Who was the hitter? Where was the defense positioned? What kind of pitch was thrown? Location of pitch?
All that the fact that not everything hit hard is guaranteed to be a hit, much less a homerun.
If I remember correctly it was 99 Seager the first time and 99 Cobb the 2nd time. The defense was not shifted at all and both pitches were right down the middle. Perfect/perfect lineouts caught right at the wall in dead center. I understand lineouts are part of baseball, but in a video game user input should reign supreme over realism. Especially online

I don't know if I just suck (most likely the case) but I played a few games today and was swinging and missing at fastballs and getting late swing timing on the feedback when it felt like I timed it up pretty well. Again maybe I just suck but has anyone else felt this way?

Division realignment. If I want to do a Franchise mode using the 2004 rosters I should be able to put the Astros in the National League.

Agreed. Huge W that they made it a program instead of hiding the cards in a pack that costs 30,000 stubs. Now if only they could focus on the gameplay...

Is anyone going to complain (besides me) that it is entirely too easy to get a full diamond squad??? I remember when a 90 was actually a really good card. Now if you don’t have a team of 93+ you are trash. Not only that but I believe in ‘20 it took about a week to get a full diamond squad. It’s garbage. Look at the market, it makes the market garbage too.
So you want The Show to basically become like Madden where the only way to have a good team is through microtransactions? Being able to put together a team capable of competing online without spending a single cent of real money is what makes The Show great and puts it above and beyond the video games of the 3 other major sports, at least in my opinion.
-
Blame all the people who complained about the amount of 99 overalls last year. This is a direct result of that.
-
That complaining about hitting being "too easy" is what caused the developers to break hitting in the first place. Hitting is completely fine, unless you enjoy 1-0 or 2-1 snoozefest games with a bunch of good/okay flyouts there should be nothing to complain about.
-
Completely agree. Pure analog is definitely underrated, totally recommend if you have horrible hand-eye coordination and can't hit with zone.
-
Can check swings be annoying? Sure, but getting rid of them altogether and calling every swing attempt a strike is dumb and unrealistic.

You just suck.
Somehow I doubt that though because there are days where I'm crushing the ball and days where I can't hit to save my life. This game is just completely random.

Just faced a clown that used both knuckleballers. Thankfully I ended up beating him 7-0 and made him quit in the 7th inning, but SDS needs to do something about these glitches that shouldn't be in the game. Especially Stephen Wright, he got suspended for domestic violence and it's a bad look to still have him in the game.
For DV, here's a list of people who also would no longer be in the game...
- Aroldis Chapman (a lot of people like using his card!)
- Jose Reyes
- Hector Olivera
- Jeurys Familia
- Derek Norris
- Roberto Osuna
- Addison Russell
- Odubel Herrera
- Julio Urias
- Domingo German
The message of this post is not that players who have been suspended for DV should get removed from the game, but that the knuckleballers should either be removed from the game or revamped.
Then why'd you include the DV in your original message if it actually doesn't matter to you?
When did I say it doesn't matter? It just wasn't the main point of the post.
You literally said it's a bad look to have a player who got suspended for DV. So wouldn't that extend to all players who have done so? Why bring it up?
Honestly you're right. It wasn't the main point of the post and shouldn't have been brought up at all. I'm just frustrated that these knuckleballers are in the game and are allowed to be easily exploited.

We would be missing a lot of top tier players if that was the case.
That's all you took out of my post? These knuckleballers either need to be removed from the game entirely, or be completely revamped so they're not as effective.

20 is easily an upgrade over 19. Once the devs fix the fielding this won't even be a debate. With what's currently going on in the world, I would cut SDS some slack when it comes to pumping out updates.
-
Isn't DD an unrealistic mode to begin with? When you have players like Mickey Mantle on the same field as current day players, all realism goes out the window IMO. So what's the point of complaining about "unrealistic" cards? Obviously you're all entitled to your own opinion, but that's just my two cents.
-
I mean 20 is the only version of the game made during a pandemic, so it's honestly unfair to compare it to any past version in my opinion.
-
I only ask for a friendly quit if me and my opponent have the same pitcher on the mound or if a game goes to extra innings and I have something to do. Getting rid of the friendly quit would punish the people who actually have a legit reason for it.
Can we just stop?
