Bruh - TA 1-5 and these dopes are still picking the same player?
Dear Dummies,
Please put down the adderall, look at the green tag at the top that says "New" or "x1" and since SDS puts the extra click with the message "Are you sure you want to take this player" and you still click yes....well...that's your own fault.
Be smarter
31 AB 5 H 1 R
0 STRIKEOUTS
Put the ball in play 31 times and this is the result
T-Minus 7 1/2 hours from Madden thankfully
Yes, the server issues suck
But slow menus suck even more
I'd rather everything be down for 30 minutes and comes back flawless than be slow for 4 hours
Right now, it's SLOWWW
Also, they do server maintenance pretty often in the early morning. If they need to do server maintenance twice a day and tell us the times it will be down, I think it would go a long way.
People like myself, the ones that don't have ADHD (which is rare considering all the vaccines they started sticking in your body after 1988) - I'd rather have great communication and temporary outages than random shut downs.
@xfoufoufou_psn said in PINPOINT pitching ruined this game:
the stupid wanna be gamer ruined this game with wanting perfect output ... baseball is a game with randomness you can hit the ball with alot of exit velo in real life and get unlucky... pitching you guys cried when good output caught some of the plate.... look what the game has become now .... it isnt even real baseball ... no baseball fan enjoys that every pitch is at the exact location... its the stupid gamers
Facts.
These cornball YTers too. They ruined 2k and Madden 2-3 years ago
Just took a break from Madden and wanted to play a ranked game.
Naturally Degrom was on the mound for them. I'm not an adderal addicted millennial and catching up to 102 on the black every pitch is nonsense. The controllers left stick is drifting now because of this game.
Outta here forever
But everyone who was alive in the 90s and early 2000s favorite player has a 96 overall (that isn't even usable) at this point in the year.
WE
WANT
GRIFFEY!
Focus on paralleling up players during all those offline games. A SP gets points for a CG/SO when they pitch 3 innings in Conquest.
Past 3 years I've quit The Show when Madden/2k came out and started playing less than normal around the beginning of August each year.
It's now November and I've gotten 100 points in BR 3 times and got 30 wins each ranked season along with completing all offline missions/programs.
This was the 2nd best decision every made by SDS. The 1st was being the least pay-to-play dynasty mode in sports gaming.
Sure we get some freeze glitches here and there and some non-PCI HR's but this was the greatest sports game mode to ever be created. MLB The Show 21.
For those who have him, how do you like him?
I got him ASAP and pumped for it. Only played 1 game online with him and he took a high curve deep (who tf throws hanging curves in ranked?)
Almost finished the 3rd conquest map for TA5 and I'm disappointed with his offline play. He was the KING at scooping low balls out of the stadium IRL. - but every ball at the bottom of the strikezone is a weak grounder OFFLINE ON VETERAN.
Only thing that would make sense is my conspiracy theory I've brought up before - the higher % a player is being used: the more nerfed he'll be.
That's why I'm keeping my SS and 2B cornerstones quiet AF bc they still smack to this day.
If anyone has a good review of his online play - I'd love to hear it.
I refused to go to Madden this year but after playing the past week or 2 and how broken everything is (it was phenomenal to start the year) - I'm back to Madden myself.
Good company's see a competition about to go live and STEP UP THEIR GAME. SDS decided to FUBAR their game as soon as their comp is about to drop.
Dummy SDS
PCI inner represents the sweet spot of the bat (if you never played baseball, you probably won’t understand this)
IRL ive hit homers off lefties at the end the barrel and curveballs where the bat starts to thin out. Depends on the pitchers throwing hand, the type of pitch they throw and the trajectory of their pitch. SDS has nearly perfected hitting this year.
FWIW our high school field was only 280 to left and 265 to right. I played in the aluminum bat/-5 era (aging myself heavy)
@chestnuts20_psn said in Baseball Artwork:
Nice to meet you, John Battalgazi.
Japanese name or Italian white kid from New Jersey name?
Who would make a print of Richie Ashburn or Fergerson Jenkins over other legends? Clearly an MLB The Show player
Who is positing on The Show's community board soliciting sales for "artwork"
How many bridges you got for sale in Brooklyn John?
Is Nolan Ryan glitched in showdown? I'm on my 6th try and no matter what level I face him, all the timing is way off.
Sitting on a fastball, time it and I'm too late
Fastball down the middle, don't touch the PCI, timing good and it shows I swung at the bottom of the zone
Changeups look like Glavine sweeping curves
TF is going on?
Even tried a brand new controller out of the box and still effed up
I have a conspiracy theory on this
The higher % a player is owned/used, the more nerfed he'll be
The lower % a player is owned/used, he'll be a God until people see how good that player does then everyone gets him and he gets nerfed again.
Wouldn't seem too hard to code either by just changing sliders based on % of innings used per/player
@baracesilk_psn said in Attn: SDS, Your Days Are Numbered. Tick Tock, Tick Tock:
This definitely did not go the way the OP wanted it to go.
With that said until Base Wars comes back. I don't care.
I might even take a Bases Loaded remake
Bruh...Base Wars was the BEST GAME
I get that some people were low on stubs so they sold a couple cards to get 150k to open 5 packs and get 25k worth of players BUT why are costs down across the board?
Did EVERYONE say, I need to sell all my old inning bosses and RS/BR rewards at the same time? Enough to drop prices 50% across the board?
Or were the prices brought down artificially so the average person could complete the set coming out today
Also a subs sale today....would you buy stubs $100 stubs in November so you could afford 5 of those packs. Would you buy $300+ worth of stubs to buy Nolan Ryan at his price last week?
Something smells fishy and my girlfriend already went to work so it's not her.
Pedro
Modeled my own windup after his. Glove chest high, square up to the batter, step back 45 degrees, pivot, explode the hips and fire away at any arm angle
Now if only I could throw a changeup like that I could have made it past high school lol
GOAT
Remember when you had to play the game of baseball at the highest level and be looked at as one of the best in the sport during your time period to be in the HOF?
Now it's just media members circle jerking themselves. We all know about the media these days so it's expected.
What's the most laughable?
DAVID ORTIZ DIDN'T EVEN GET A VOTE

Use all the cards that people can't hit with and see what you can find. Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Frank Thomas etc. I found out that I smash with the Big Hurt when most people don't. But don't try Barry Larkin, whatever you do, don't try Barry Larkin (hint hint)
