Same here.

Isn't Acuna having back problems?

Thanks for posting this. He's absolutely correct about so much of this game.

I use to play DD all year long from MLB17 - MLB 23.

I know people would rather bash the game and say how horrible it is. But this is an issue a lot of people ignore.

You just said you spent 7 years playing this game. Yeah you start new every year and you get that initial excitement. They've added multiple modes over the 7 years to try to keep things feeling fresh. But at the end of it you're just playing a baseball game and there's not much they can do to change that.

Of course you're going to start getting bored and lose interest in things if you're doing them too much. No matter how much you've enjoyed it in the past and want to enjoy it now.

This is how I feel. After playing DD for the last six years it just feels like, been there done that. It feels like I'm grinding for cards that I'll never use just to get programs or team affinity done and I rarely play with the cards I want to.

Can we please tone down the CPU pitching and fielding just a touch?

It makes the game feel and look absolutely ridiculous at times. Just don’t want to feel like I’m facing Greg Maddux with prime Ozzie Smith playing every position on defense non stop.

Is it possible for SDS to fix this mid season?

I got a diamond player card in the first slot today, 92 Carlos Pena.

Yes. They need competition.

I'll be turning 62 later this month and the show has always been my favorite sports game. I'd be interested in your channel.

I sent a ticket last night and they responded by telling me to try the codes again today. Just tried now and still getting the invalid message.

4 hours and still not working for me.

Not working for me also.

Yeah it’s either take your approach or just stepping away for a while. At this point I really am feeling apathetic and wanting to just walk away. I love baseball but the game is not very rewarding or fun considering the time/stub commitment being asked.

This year is the least amount of time I've spent playing DD since I started to play in '20.

For the first time this year I've had freezing problems the last week, at least four times.

I'm 61 and two years ago I had to switch to directional hitting. Just couldn't hit with zone anymore.

Also there's 2 eggs in a new diamond quest. Reward cards are 89 Rickey Henderson and 89 Lucas Erceg.

@TripleH-4481_PSN said in CPU pitching:

It’s by design to slow down grinding and maximize time in the game to see if you will break down and buy stubs to speed up the process. If you want to see how it should be, play March to October on beginner or amateur difficulty. Tons of meatballs, great exit velocity, and you can actuallly dot with your pitchers. Basically it’s more like how rookie difficulty should be playing.

As it plays now, rookie is not actually rookie at all. It’s basically mid level, almost like all-star, just with slightly smaller PCIs and slower pitch speeds. The CPU will dot, nibble off corners, have an eagle eye at the plate, and play platinum defense while your exit velocity is nerfed to boot.

If grinding wasn’t such a huge part of this game I wouldn’t mind so much but with the way the game plays now grinding can be extremely time consuming, unrewarding, and feel like a part time job. It seems like another massive over correction by SDS because a vocal minority claimed it was too easy and devaluing their cards.

Couldn't agree more. Rookie should just be a casual experience where you sit back and mash. Instead it's become a chore. Why oh why did they nerf the elevations? Ban those stadiums online if people were complaining.

With the new missions added I got more TA points for most of the teams but haven't gotten any of the rewards on the path. I should have a bunch of show packs, BIAH packs and stubs but nothing is in my inventory. Anyone else have this problem?

Sony spend some money on you're servers.

SDS never fails to disappoint.
