I laugh everytime I do it. Who really won?

Idk, check your game history when you get back to the DD home screen.

You seem more worried about it than me. When you roll dice sometimes you win sometimes you lose but that homerun never happened.

If you want the reasoning behind the post, one of my daily missions is 5 RBI. I hit a HR but opponent dashboarded. Is it going to take longer now? Sure. Will I get it still? Yes. So really I'm not that worried. It's just childish, selfish, and pointless.

I love when people dashboard. Get the win in much less time.

Sucks for stats towards prestige players, but whatever.

My point isn't play the full game out. Just wait till the stats register and then quit. Tbh, it saves the "dashboarder" more time anyway.

Have I done it myself in March to October when a game isn't going my way? Most certainly. But PLEASE stop doing it online. Personally, I could even really care less about losing the stats. It's the missions and program stars you're robbing people of. And if you really care about your personal stats, just know deGrom gave up 19 HR last year and won a Cy Young; it's ok to give up runs. Also, SDS isn't handing out trophies to us players anyway, so what's it matter?

Could SDS do something about it? Sure. They placed a limit on how many times you can do it in MTO. But until that happens, why not just fix the "issue" ourselves. Let the ball land and then quit.

Sounds like your opponent won then.

Except the fact where I got the win counted for in event? Which is what I'm really playing the event for. And they were playing for too.

Yet they probably went to the next game and you’re crying about stats ‍️ Easy to tell who the real winner was.

Are you attempting to be funny?...at least put some effort into it....because you just sound like a little kid trying to be funny

Nope not being funny at all. This post makes me want to dashboard more. Never knew people were actually sitting at home crying because of it. It’s a video game lol.

Sounds like you're doing a lot of losing.

Meh I go back and forth. Game is pretty terrible and random. Almost all of my losses Have been dashboarding on a homerun though. Glad I’m doing it correctly.

It's a point we will agree to disagree on and admittingly the banter has been fun. But I really just want to know what you get out of dashboarding? It literally takes more time to get back to DD than if you wait 5 seconds and then quit. And regardless you still get an L.

@nflman2033 said in Quit Dashboarding:

I thought it you dashboard in MTO you don't get TA points?

It's if you dashboard three times, and I've had instances where it didn't register them. It gives you warnings when you go back into that MTO.

@Crimson_Monk said in Quit Dashboarding:

Who cares. It makes the game move on faster. You’re gonna play another one anyway so you will eventually get the stats. I dashboard when it makes me hang pitches in clutch moments, screw the other guy they didn’t deserve the free homerun due to Poor pitching coding

As I said earlier in the thread, I'm not saying play out the full game. Just wait till next batter is up and then quit. And for the "dashboarder", they actually get back into their next game quicker that way, so it doesn't even make sense. It's just the fact they are salty. Imagine if MLB pitchers could just "dashboard" when they make a bad pitch or someone is sitting on a pitch they are ready to crush.

@halfbutt said in This Patch is Bad. Here’s why.:

Would it be too much to ask to just have a chart or something that says:

Good/ok: x% chance of hit
Good/good: y% chance of hit
Good/squared: z% chance of hit
Perfect/perfect: a% chance of hit?

I mean, we all know dice rolls are happening. We have pack odds published. Why not let us know the odds of getting a hit with the various degrees of placement and timing?

The problem right now, to me, is that you have multiple layers of RNG. Even a perfectly executed swing only gives a chance of a hit.

IMO, that defeats the meaning of a "simulation" game then. Other factors need to be taken into account, i.e. hitter hot/cold zones, pitch type, pitch location, pitch speed, etc. To just say good/good is a dice-roll takes away from the "simulation" aspect. If you want hits based on % of the time, RBI Baseball is the game to play.
