I want my time back that I wasted reading this post, but you know what the Stones say...

@Onyx_Hokie_2 said in Penalty For Requesting FQ While Losing:

A recent opponent had the brass neck to ask for a "Friendly" Quit while losing 6-0 in the 3rd inning.

I think that if/when such things are reported, the offending player should receive - at minimum - a 24-hour ban from playing online.

I also think that the game should incorporate a system whereby it's not possible to ask for an FQ beyond a certain threshold, or better still requiring more than one button press to accept an FQ.

Thoughts?

Are you sure a 24 hour ban is enough? Maybe SDS should send a major league ball player to their house to take out their knee caps with a bat.

It's a video game. Decline the friendly quit, and lighten up, Francis.

Just think of all the other games you could have won and played in that time.

This guy negotiates with terrorists.

I've never watched his content. Apparently he has over 240k subscribers. You would hope someone with that kind of following would be capable of playing a video game without acting like a [censored], but I guess not.

Your "opponent" is free to undercut you by one stub to maximize his profit, just like you are free to drop the price by thousands to reduce how much you will make. That's how a market works.

Well, if you're seriously looking to find another studio to create a baseball game, you're certainly posting in the right place...

Why don't you make like a tree and get out of here?

I’ve been using this forum since 17, and without a doubt the post where people were complaining about lefty common pitchers in the event (which is allowed based on the rules) was one of the dumbest complaints I have ever seen.

The average player has never visited this forum, doesn’t notice the lag/frame rate issues, and even if they did they probably didn’t connect it to MLB parks. They’re just trying to play a video game.

Then there is another small percentage of players that know about the lag / frame rate and simply don’t care because they want to play in MLB stadiums in an MLB game.

I understand the frustration, but trying to change what away parks you end up in by complaining about it here is equivalent to pissing in the wind.

Where's my Shark Week conquest map! I want free stuff!!!

Cards are worth what people are willing to pay. His price is relatively high since the BR program is still somewhat new and some people may have used him for the collection. I think there is also a stub sale going on. The cost will likely drop over time.

There are free options at every position that will keep you in the game and are an infinitely better value. To some people no card is worth the cost on the market, but the stubs aren't going to transfer to 22. People will use the stubs they have on the players they want, and since stubs are really easy to come by via flipping and investments, inflation occurs. I bought Harper yesterday for around 290K and I may not even ever use him. For people that collect every card, 300K is a drop in the bucket. I made at least 150K flipping LS diamonds today when I was watching TV, and I know plenty of people routinely make more per day.

@omitho_xbl said in This game is just rubbish:

100 % agree I feel sorry for the people that paid real moneu for kit. I just bought a pack and got S. Ohtani but for some reason 2k decided to list him as a RF and his secondary position is SP ... 2k look online anywhere no one says he is a starting right fielder. Sometimes people are really retarded

Ironic seeing as how you keep mentioning 2K in your posts when they haven't developed a baseball game since 2013.

@argentin32_xbl said in Flash Sale discussion:

Why is Cespedes HRD card tanking right now? You can't get it the packs.

Next to no one is using Cespedes in the outfield. His value is in locking him in. You don't need all of the HRD cards for the voucher, so if the other cards get cheaper, people will pull their orders from Cespedes and go for cheaper options. That leads to his price dropping.

I started down 11-15 in my first attempt and failed at 15-15. I started down 13-15 in my second attempt and beat him with 3 outs to go. For me at least, I thought this was the most challenging Showdown yet. Even sitting fastball I was late most of the time, and the speed differential with his change up was really good. I went from being pretty meh about him being a boss since I haven't liked Nolan Ryan cards in the past to definitely taking him. Especially with Mookie Betts dropping today. I can't see myself using Vlad very often.

I was going to wait for the last 3 Topps Now I needed, but I found 3 under 10K and just pulled the trigger. Haven't used him yet.

@savefarris_psn said in Request to Post Voucher Requirements for Mookie:

Topps Now (need 3? was going to wait for July POTM drop)

I think Topps is impossible right now,right?

If you don't buy any, then yes. I'm three short. Thought about buying 3 more off the market, but I'd rather just get them for free when the monthly reward drops. It's not worth inflated prices.

@tossgawd_xbl said in Flash Sale today:

Is it discounted packs, cards, or both?

Discounted packs which should lead to a drop in the cost of those cards on the market.

But if said cards are part of a collection today (ex. HRD collection) how do you think the market would respond then? I wouldn't imagine it going down really. If anything prices would probably go up imo.

I guess I should have been more clear. Yes, prices will go up today due to the new collection. The discounted packs will drive those prices back down, but it's anyone's guess as to how much. It could still be higher than they are now, or they could go significantly lower.

For those that try to collect all of the cards in the game, it's a good idea to complete all of the inning collections before the end of the inning, even if you don't need the XP. Otherwise you're leaving free stubs on the table. Especially with the inning bosses.
