    Things I’ve stopped caring about:
  • PeuswahBoy_PSNP PeuswahBoy_PSN

    yup...little slider action


  • Any Recommended Catchers?
  • PeuswahBoy_PSNP PeuswahBoy_PSN

    As a Mets and Piazza fan, I've been using him. He's been legitimately the worst hitter on my squad by a big margin. He's hitting 60 points below my next worst hitter after 200 at bats, and it seems like he's late on everything, even sitting on it. I hate it, but I think I have to replace him. I've been using Contreras, and he's batting right around my average, even though Piazza's numbers are superior.


  • Moonshot my blank
  • PeuswahBoy_PSNP PeuswahBoy_PSN

    I usually LOVE moonshot. This one has done something to me though...lol. Normally I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but I'm leaning towards the predetermined outcome / catch up logic being in the game. I can't tell you how many games I've had where I throw nothing but balls in the dirt, my opponent is swinging at all of them, and suddenly in the last inning...routine ground balls get bobbled, fly balls are dropped, and somehow my 4-0 or 5-0 lead is negated by a ball that goes RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE. It's annoying for sure.

    @peuswahboy_psn said in I honestly think I am done with DD this year:

    I've seen a couple of people use the term "meh" to describe this year, and I have to agree. The last 3 versions, I played / grinded pretty endlessly. It always felt like there was something to do or accomplish, whether it was a program, conquest or even just working the market to get stubs.

    The game this year has absolutely been massaged for one thing and one thing only: To make you buy stubs. Flipping is awful compared to last year. The cards dropping aren't nearly as desirable as at this time last year. The amount of packs / stubs being given out for completing goals is WAY down. I can't prove this next assertion, but it definitely feels like packs aren't nearly as fair. Really the one thing I can compliment about this year is that there aren't any overpowered cards that EVERYONE has in their lineup, so the PACING of content is better than most years, in my opinion.

    Really the game feels like a grind this year, and as many others have said, it doesn't feel nearly as rewarding. Hell, I remember doing one division of exchanges in TA last year, and being bombarded with packs and stubs. This year? It's like a trickle.

    Well, regarding packs being nerfed...

    As NMS, I usually buy a 50 pack when I have about 90K. So far this year I've pulled Trout, DeGrom three times, Soto multiple times, J-Ram multiple times, Acuna three times...many others.

    I rationalize it by saying that my luck is offset by many others getting absolutely shafted....

    lol Oh hi it's me...absolutely shafted.
    I only need 7 cards to complete the live collection: deGrom, Scherzer, Tatis, Acuna, Trout, Ohtani, and Vlad Jr.. Easy peasy

    Not a rant post really just came to realization that this years DD is lacking a lot for me to continue playing.

    I will be playing Franchise and Road to the Show from now on but DD is done for 22.

    Content has been lacking in my view.

    Team Affinity is gone,New featured program is weak and POTM is a joke.Not to mention the grind needed to get Rizzo.Just not fun.

    PXP is the single worst addition this year for program progress I think.

    Forcing me to use players I don't like to progress very very slowly towards the program is not ideal.

    Hitting is bad both online and offline and diving plays are OP.Mini Seasons is a good idea but too shallow and kinda broken for some folks.

    Collections are underwhelming really.I only like Gibson,Utley and Jansen.

    I will continue playing the game but DD is an L this year from me.

    Agreed. In general they made:

    1) the grinds longer
    2) rewards worse
    3) rewards path decreased to 1 program
    4) online play frustrating RNG

    No matter where you turn for fun, there’s a bug, crappy reward, or a not-fun grind waiting for you.

    It wasn't done for no reason though.

    1. Longer grinds = Less patience and more likely to buy stubs
    2. Lesser rewards = More likely to buy stubs to get the card you want
    3. Less reward volume = More likely to buy stubs for the market
    4. More RNG = More frustration from good players, more participation from bad players. More time = More likely to buy stubs

    Whenever the question is why, and it relates to a business? The answer is almost always money.

    I got a pack today, and to my surprise, pulled the ritual with Babe calling his shot and Trout. VERY nice surprise.

  • How much of a grind is Acuna?

    @t00muchham_xbl said in How much of a grind is Acuna?:

    I want that Pete Alonso HRD card SO BAD, but I cannot bring myself to spend that much on a 1B when I already have Ortiz and Prince Fielder at 99.

    Someone...please...tell me I am being rational here.

    Stop being rational and go get that bear. I have him at first and put Vladdy at 3rd.


  • Moonshot event

    I'll sign this petition. I love Moonshot.

    @d_e_m_i_s_e_psn said in How much of a grind is Acuna?:

    Why not just quit the game and start over? You don't get any reward for a game against the CPU on Rookie except maybe a common or bronze card.

    It's funny you say that...I agree, BUT...the only Trout I've pulled this year was a reward from a rookie CPU grind game.


  • How much of a grind is Acuna?
  • PeuswahBoy_PSNP PeuswahBoy_PSN

    I finished it last night:

    • Collection
    • Moments (Pretty fun and easy)
    • CPU Game on Rookie in Colorado with an all Home Run Derby lineup and Shohei / deGrom pitching
    • CPU Game on Rookie in Colorado with an all All Star lineup and Shohei / deGrom pitching

  • leiter, paxton, or vida?
  • PeuswahBoy_PSNP PeuswahBoy_PSN

    I'd say Leiter, Vida, then Paxton. Leiter has great movement and control, so you can keep guys off balance all game if you're mixing it up and spotting it well. Vida's interesting, but he's more hit and miss. Some guys can't touch him, and other guys hit him like BP. That maxed out H/9 is nice though. Paxton is weird for me this year...just like last year. He seems like he should be better than he is. He's just kinda...meh?


  • First Time Ever Playing Online
  • PeuswahBoy_PSNP PeuswahBoy_PSN

    Yeah this event has been pretty fun so far. Not quite as many toxic douches as ranked, but I've run into a few...lol.


  • They said no hitting/pitching in update..
  • PeuswahBoy_PSNP PeuswahBoy_PSN

    Not this year. Whoever is highest dictates the difficulty.
