But I think me and my son played our last game of Diamond Dynasty tonight.

First off, I know what you're thinking; ANOTHER one of these posts.

But I think I am justified for feeling this way for a few reasons.

First, I know I probably should've shut off his ability to receive messages, and thata on me, but when someone (who is LOSING in a Freeze Off by 4 runs) sends a 13 yr old kid FIFTY messages calling him any AND every name in the book AND threatens to report my kid if he doesn't quit a game that he is winning; does not deserve to even play this game.

Then when the guy finally quits; 2 hrs later; he has the audacity to send a msg stating that he just reported my kid for 'causing the game to freeze'; just takes the cake.
I know that this is an empty threat. And chances are nothing will happen to my son; but that's not the point.

Then when I decide to hop on my account; I match up with not one, but two, Prestige Level playera who proceed to abuse EVERY possible explout with this game. Bunt dancing, lag, quick pitching, running back and forth on the basepaths; hoping I'll throw to the wrong base, tryinf the FQ glitch; trying to get me to join a party, asking me to walk them 10x.

You name it they tried it. Whata even better, one was rocking a WS banner and the other was rocking a GOAT icon.

Anyway, this has to be the most toxic community I've ever come across in all my years or gaming.

I'm not saying everyone is like this, and ibe met a few people on here; that if I came across in person; we would be friends. However, recently the bad hace ourweighed the good.

When something that is supposed to relax you, like a video game, Actually frustrates you; its time to move on.

I just wish I could keep playing; but I donr even want to play offline right now.

Thanks to everyone that helped.

Maybe I'll be back aftwr a few weeks away; but I'm not holding my breathe.

@i4theluvofthegam said in To all the people complaining about the game:

Well what about the past 2 games I played I had 5 perfect/perfect hits that were outs? All 5 of them.... while my opponent hit a good/okay high away FB out of the park. It truly doesn’t matter what the contact results are. This game has so much rng in it that most of the user input doesn’t matter.

I had a Perfect/Perfect with Rookie Dawson that was caught at the wall.

Right now I'm running the following:

HW Young
SS Newhouser
FOTF Ohtani
FOTF Bola
AS Smoltz/Maddux

Going to take Felix when I hit 300.

Have 90K in stubs; but would rather uar that towards Showdowns.

How is that Casey Mize?

Any FS SPs I should target?

If it matters; I prefer pitchers that have 5 pitches in their repitore; but if they're good enough; I'll deal with 4 pitches.

@HeadCoach11787 said in Yay! My son's first Freeze Off:

Do u play with Pittsburgh?

What do you mean?

Guess I'm not playing tonight. Wanted to play after he's done with this game.

@CCCStunna30 said in Most annoying daily innings missions:

Online SP complete game min 8 innings pitched. Pitching this year causes you to throw way to many balls and good input often ends up as a meat ball. So you either have to leave your pitcher out to die and hope you score enough to avoid a mercy or pray you get a guy that swings at everything

Especially when it says you can complete it in BR or Events

Just finished opening up my free packs from the 4th Inning Conquest Map and not counting the auto Diamonds from the Prospect and Quarter Finals packs; the best cards I got were 2 Golds. One from each BIAH pack.

Jack squat from the other packs.

Also, after opening my 3 TA packs from the White Sox TA, I am now 0-28 with those packs. And thats not only 0-28 for Diamonds, but also 0-28 for Golds.

Notice that I'm at 49/50 pts for FOTF Moncada.

See that I need 225 offline innings for 5pts and 145 online innings for 2pts.

Figure oh well, guess I'll field a team full if White Sox players and just bunt out a few Event games.

Oh wait. I never did their 3pt TA Moment. Sweet!

Need 2H without striking out twice with FOTF Moncada. Piece of cake.

Well 1 hour and NUMEROUS attempt a later; I'm STILL at 49pts.

Exit out of the moment to see that it's on Veteran Difficulty.

I'd rather crawl naked through busted glass than place a ANYTHING on Veteran Difficulty!

Shouldve juat bunted out 2 Events games.

It’s crazy. Not sure how 20 stars is worth spending that many stubs.

A lot of sell immediately for stubs.

I actually thought of you when I saw that Machado going for 4K.

Ironically, I thought about buying 100 of him back when he was around 500 stubs. Figured I could've used him for exchanges.

Oh well.

Silver Rookie cards going for 3-5K. Looks like I locked in my 10 Rookies a day early.

Posey looks like your best bet.

I assume you're trying to 'Prime' Chipper, so getting Larkin would probably only give you a pinch runner; unless you want to bench Chipper.

Posey would upgrade Carter at the plate.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't Inn Programs last about 30 days?

This one lasts 28 days yet has rewards that go as far up as 900pts.

If I'm not mistaken, the 3rd Inning lasted longer and only went up to 600pts.

@the_dragon1912 @GoHardGrandpa

I got 50K, after tax, for Victorino and Roberts. Paid 40k for them; so 20K profit.

I kept Chipper.

May but back later if I need the 75 stars to get to whatever the max is this program.

Wondering if anyone can help me? I’ve had 100 GB speed for a while now, but my PlayStation only pulls about 20 to 40. I recently updated my Internet to 200 gig. I am still only pulling 45 through the Wi-Fi on my PlayStation. I pulled different speeds depending upon what I am on. My phone will test at 160 gig. But my laptop will only call about 80. And again my PlayStation is only getting about 40. What is going on? Why am I getting different speeds with each? Any ideas to help?

It's the specs Sony used for the PS4. Nothing you can do about it. I run 1 Gig of internet speed, but PS4 is only pulling about 45-50 mbps on the wifi. If you have a PS4 pro, you can put it on the 5G network if your close enough to the router.

What he said. The PSN xan only handle so much.

I have 400mbps.

If I run wired, the PS4 hits at 250-260mbps. But if I run Wi-Fi, I only get about 40mbps. And the PS4 is only 3 inches from my modem/router.

My old (personal) laptop hits at 45 thru Wi-Fi; but my work CPU hits at 175; because the wireless card in the old laptop only supports up to 50mbps.

You can't get am exact speed test on your phone; because it's a different type of wireless card. Also, some sites will give fluctuating data. One site I used to use gave me cell at 45mbps. The newer site hits at 225mbps.

But depending on how far away the ps4 is from the modem/router; you may benefit from being hardwired.

Sitting at 55K. Anyone think they'll get higher or is now the time to sell?

Here's what I dont understand. EVERY YEAR people complain about RNG nad the game 'catering' to 'Little Billy' players; yet the SAME peoplw that complain buy it EVERY single year.

If you 'KNOW' its not going to be based on ability; why do you still buy it?

@EmoneyBags06 said in I Took Two Weeks Away...:

Not saying the game doesn't feel fresh due to the time off but that changed quick when the second ranked game I played ended due to a network error handing me the loss with outfielders rapidly diving for no apparent reason... I won the next two, but outfield mayhem continued.

Why can't these issues be mended? Last year I completed every program and logged in almost every day. This year I already am losing interest by the third inning program sitting at 115 stars...

Better watch out. People will come on here and say that your fielders 'diving' err because your controller is broken. It's NEVER the game.

Sitting here watching my son try to get this card.

He decided to attempt the Series vs Angels moment first. Where you need to get 4 XBHs and 7 RBIs in 3 games.

First game Granderson goes 5 for 5 with 2 HRs, 2 doubles, and 6 RBIs.

Is this card actually this good? Or was that a byproduct of playing on Rookie difficulty?

Just watched my son play a game where he was trying to get the XBHs with Bats, IB, 3B, and Catchers so he can get Posada, Mathews, Hernandez, and Dawson completed and all because he came back, down 5-2, in the bottom of the 6th inning to load the bases and hit what wouldve been a walk off Grand Slam with LS Grandal, to win the game; just to watch his opponent dashboard mid flight.

Guess a Gold Level 52 player, with a swuad full of Diamonds, couldnt handle a Bronze 22 with Silvers and Golds coming back to beat him.

Piece of trash!

How do you actually throw a cutter? Is it supposed to cut in? Away?
