    Night and day differences
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    Everyone is going to have their own opinion on this one but i truely believe at the end of the day this game is supposed to be fun for everyone at every level, its baseball! There are so many homerun[censored] in real baseball now and i think it should be reflected in the game as well but i understand the problems it creates online. I feel the hitting should have been toned down more online and not so much offline where the grind is already real.

    Moments and showdowns and conquest take forever in a nurfed offensive world and we all suffer the same, its psychological warfare with myself between being patient and hurrying up to get the mission done lol.

    I just played my first couple games after the patch and its definitely alot less fun. I just want to have fun. Why must they tinker with such a core part of the game so early after its released. They tinker so often with the dynamics of this game its hard to play a full year without noticeable differences in feel.

    Ive played every year since 06 but the last few years I feel the game has been amazing at launch then falls off as the year goes as far as gameplay. The content is amazing and the layers of gameplay is second to none, the team building and collecting is better then any sports game out there, its the gold standard but the fighting in the community over gameplay is unbelievable.

    Online hitting should be tinkered with more often then offline, Id rather be able to finish missions with a consistent level of playing and online be more variable based on skill and team ratings.

    Anyways thanks to anyone to take time to read my rant. Back to the grind! Be safe, be kind. Except to the astros, they still cheated! Go A's! And bring back pre patch hitting to the offline grind please and thank you.


  • DD squad March to October
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    Just an idea for a new mode for the offline grind. What if we could make a dd squad and play thru a mto and get rewards based on squad overall and lvl played on.

    I feel dd is lacking a season like component offline where u play with your squad. I want to build a squad and be able to play thru a season like in mto. I was thinking if u build a team 85+ u get put in the favorites script, 80-84 contenders and so on with maybe a 10 pack of packs for winning the world series just like completing conquest.


  • Favorite team's player not in game?
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    Barry zito, tim hudson, mark mulder, miguel tejeda and eric chavez


  • These are your future stars
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    They should have put future stars out first and made them 85_89. Fotf cards should be the ones 90+. Smith rated higher then vlad is ridiculous. One of best prospects of all time is rated 5 below a guy ranked in the 20s of the system? Seriously?


  • Who's the one guy you can't take out of your lineup?
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    Fotf olson. Rest of my team is 95+ but nobody has replaced olson yet, tried a bunch of different 1st basemen between showdowns and br but with his d and power vs righties and lefties i cant see replacing him anytime soon, i aslo just do very well with his swing.


  • Secondary position bump
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    Basically, I think that every secondary postion shouldnt automatically be a ratings drop.

    When center fielders get moved to the corners irl they generally grade out better defensively then in center, same with ss at 2b and 3rd basemen at 1st. If the opposite happens then the player usually grades out worse.

    So my idea is that if i have a center fielder (ie. Ricky) and move him to his secondary position (LF) his defensive rstings should go up not down. If i have a right feilder (ie. Judge) and i move him to center then he should have the rating drop because he is playing a tougher position then his primary.


  • Starters as relievers
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    I really like the starters as relievers idea but it definitely needs better exacution.

    My idea would be to automatically cut the starters stamina in half when he enters out of the pen. That way if you use the same guy out of the bullpen multiple games in a row he would be below 25% stamina coming in the 2nd game in a row. It would also keep the starter from regaining enough energy to have a suitable start his next turn around.

    This way allows you to be able to use starters no more then twice in a 5 game span but still gives you that option if things go south.

    Ive read a few really good ideas over the last couple of weeks and a couple of those ideas are in this thread already. Regardless of what happens i just hope they do something about it because it is definitely an exploit the way it is set up now


  • Should there be a prime Jose Fernandez?
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    Everyone needs to cool off on jose being the greatest marlin of all time thing. Only people born after year 2000 would ever think that. He was on track for greatness but never really accomplished anything.

    I dont care about what he did as a person, tons of people of been awful people off the field, its not my business.

    But seriously does no one remember how dominant josh Beckett was during their world series run, or even aj burnett. Way higher ceilings then jose ever had. Even josh johnson leads the marlins in every single pitching category and was dominant for a good stretch. Hell even d train had a better run then jose. Id take anyone of of those guys having beast cards before jose

    @CheddaAllDay said in Diamond dynasty guide:

    I've just started out a few weeks ago, here are a couple of tips that I got:

    Do the Blake Snell Program - dont necessarly get Snell (as you have to lock in players), but grind and get two $5-6K diamonds and one that was about $25K, although the prices could be a bit lower now, than they were a week ago.

    Conquest - do the small maps. I did the 4th inning map in a night and got a ton of packs, stubs etc. - I'm now going to start working through the other small maps for the same reason.

    Showdowns - I have only done one, but again it was something I could knock off in a night. I don't fully understand the showdowns, but they will give you points towards the programs, which I think is the big draw to them. Don't forget that you can adjust your line up after every game to put in your upgraded players (I didn't realize this until the end, and made a couple of bad swaps because I couldn't remember which players I had gotten in prior rounds)

    Player Evolution - I took CarGo and got the card in an afternoon. The moments and missions aren't that difficult.

    Work on the other player programs. I havent started here, but there are 3-4 guys that I will go after. i assume that this is also going to help me get points towards those programs which should get me more loot!

    Anyways, that's what I have learned from the forum and the game. Enjoy and don't buy packs!

    All this for sure, great breakdown, I would just add the jackie Robinson program in early too, lots of packs/ stubs and some of his missions involve getting stats with his card in conquest so if u have to grind all those maps anyways itll be easy to get two birds stoned at once.

    Best of luck! And dont buy packs lol


  • Remember you heard it here first about the chase collection
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    The return of pepe alazar


  • Self Proclaimed "I'm The Best At..." - For ONLINE Gameplay
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    Im the best at yanking my pci to the bottom of the zone for no reason at all on pitches right down the middle, every single time lol


  • Praise Post
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    Ill 2nd this. Gameplay definitely feels better. I appreciate the strides forward. Thank you sds

    If pitching gets a little help with accuracy and strike zone calls I think it will balance the hitting and make the game fun.


  • I got my stuff back!!!!!!!!!
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    Put in a ticket on 4/22 for missing kirby yates and joe carter after completing the jays collection as well as missing joe musgrove from my topps now pack after opening and i finally got an email from show support yesterday and they fixed everything and i got all my stuff back!

    There's hope people! Hang in there! I gave up hope awhile ago but couldn't be happier that they got back to me.

    I really hope everyone whos been waiting gets their stuff soon too!

    Have a great day everyone! And thank you show support for all the help!


  • Can we be specific?
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    Urgency! My defenders make every play like its sunday beer league. I want to see some crisp professional looking defensive plays. Drives me insane when my outfielder flicks the ball back in and i just barely miss the tag. Or on choppers and bunts when my guys casually flicks the ball to first instead of firing it over. Or after a double play and the runner rounds 3rd for home and my first basemen throws a lolipop to the catcher so the guy beats the tag and scores the run for no reason, that one is my personal favorite.


  • Breaking news. Marlins v Orioles game canceled
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    Inside edge was fun for a weekend anyways.
    Hopefully they find a way to keep everyone safe and keep playing but its a tough spot to be in right now.


  • Is 99 Robinson worth the time?
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    @BodamEscapePlan said in Is 99 Robinson worth the time?:

    Is that Jackie program as big of a grind as I think it is? I haven't even started it aside from maybe getting 5-10 points accidentally and I'm not hurting at 2B but I'd like to do it if it's not incredibly long and frustrating.

    Its 100% a huge grind but I didnt do it as my primary grind at any point, its daunting to try to attack it all in a night or 2.
    The conquest stats i found the most tedious but i just reset the usa map and simmed a couple rounds till i had 15 or so fans and would attack a rockies single square instead of stronghold so it was on rookie, had jackie lead off and quit out after his ab. Took about 40 abs and 3 map resets but it went fairly quickly considering.
    The rest of the mission stats just kind of happened thru playing because i have bellinger in my lineup so i got Dodger stats from him and left field stats from trammel.
    Took about a week for me to finish off without pressing to finish but it was 100% worth the time.


  • The issue isn't hitting, it's the strike zone.
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    @lucas8181 said in The issue isn't hitting, it's the strike zone.:

    I understand SDS saw an issue and rushed to fix it, but they are fixing the wrong problem. The issue is the strike zone. Strikes on the corners are consistently called [censored] when they aren't. That is forcing pitchers into bad counts, and forcing us to put the ball more over the plate. Fix the strike zone issue, return hitting to where it was, and you'll see things even out.

    I agree with this, alot of edges not getting calls forcing things over the plate. Its a tough balance.

    I wish they would add pitch framing as an attribute for catchers just like blocking. Higher the attribute the more calls on the corner your pitcher gets and lower it is the less you get. It would add another layer of realism and probably a whole new layers of problems but it would be cool to see and make those calls on the edges feel more realistic


  • Today's event update
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    I hope so too, grinding prestige stats in rs feels like a chore but I actually enjoy it in events.

    Quick counts is a great change up for online play just to speed things up and be able to play so many games quickly, i find it alot more enjoyable how fast games go even when things dont go my way its just on to the next one and try to do better


  • 1.09 Patch Discussion
  • Quinn2161_PSNQ Quinn2161_PSN

    I had a ball hit directly at my left fielder last night and off the bat my defender locked on to the ball automatically because it was right at him. I tried to move back just a bit because he wasnt lined up properly with the ball but he was locked in animation and wouldnt move and had ball fly right over his head. Hadnt had that happen to me before. Happens sometimes on floaters to 2nd base/ ss but never in the outfield.

    My idea is that the lock on the ball on pop flys should be triggered using L2 that way i can adjust on [censored] hit directly at players and also adds user skill in catching liners because you would have to react quick enough. Also if i hit the L2 lock with a runner on base in the "runway" it should let me field and throw the ball with the run up properly.

    Also my final point is that players on d need to play with more urgency in general, defense feels like every guy is just in beer league having a good time with no hustle, especially throws back from the outfield, i just want my guy to play like hes a pro instead of being so casual.

    Thank you sds for listening to us and trying to get this fixed. I love playing and will enjoy it even more when some of these bugs are gone
