It would be a bit more fun if the price was spread out for a lot of live guys - instead of all on Shohei and Jusge. Not sure how to affect the market like that - but a whole bunch of semi-gatekeepers would feel better than 2 giant ones

No, the opposite actually - errors and bad fielding should be more common, if its going to be like real baseball.

The thing about complaining about bloops is that - this game already has WAY WAY too many home runs. It needs more doubles and triples, yes - but definitely not more dingers

Mini season grind? Events or BR? Team Affinity grind? RTTS? Franchise? DQ grind?

Every game that releases a ton of content has a message board where people inexplicably post "Im all done - why isn't there more stuff to do!"...

So, I think the first two or three weeks of DD is really fun - because almost every card you get, you think "hmm, this guy might play for my team".

By now, we are already at the point where almost every card (even pretty good ones), you're immediately like "can't see a way that card ever plays on my team". Like, you've only got do many spots on your team. Ill still play the card for fun here and there, usually...but it would be way more fun if I had a better use for them. (So I could be like "ok I can use this guy here" and it will improve this other team).

Its like an RPG where you do the side quests and get all that cool loot - then the game keeps giving you other stuff, and you're like "but this is worse...how do I use???".

It could be that they're willing to take strikes early in the count. If they think its even close, they're just gonna take cause swinging will probably be an out anyway

I like DD and thinks there's lots of content that's fun to play, especially Events.

My biggest issue is that there's not enough reason to use most of the rewards you get. I know you can build "theme teams" for fun, and I love constructing teams...but you need more reason to use the non-elite cards. I know that BR and Events give you a little of this, but I still have a tough time finding good uses for most of my binder.

Sit high and inside. Even then, I have days where Im always late - and I can't tell if its the internet connection or me. Some days, I just feel twitchy- usually after pounding some coffee in the morning- and Im right on the timing.

Its so frustrating when you know they're gonna throw inside sinker, and you're still late. Some of these idiots love to pause break the game to cause lag. Its infuriating to get beaten by their stupid play. You can tell because you won't be late playing CPU on hall of fame - but somehow you're late playing online dweeb on all star

Ill agree wholeheartedly on the web gems - cpu is insane defensively. Defense is too easy in the game, in general - there should be more errors and bad plays, but then everyone would cry "rng made me lose!"

I will agree that Rookie is way harder in this game than any other sports game. But, the reason is that batting is very difficult - i feel like there are 1000 people in the world who know how to hit in this game (and Im not one of them).

Whatever you might hate about this game...it gives you lots of content. It always amazes me when people want more content - how many hours per day you playin? Lol

I guess my issue is that everyone gets annoyed anytime CPU is capable of winning. Like, do you just never want CPU to have a chance? Is CPU not supposed to be challenging - it's just a grind assistant? As someone who prefers to play offline, this doesn't make sense to me

How is it even easier to steal in this game than it's ever been? Even the best players are like "any guy over speed 50 - pretty much automatic steal....even a pitch out won't stop"

So, Im legitimately not trying to be mean....but, if you can't beat Rookie, how do you beat anything else in this game? Like, everything else is tougher.

These kinds of posts are crazy. CPU is awful at hitting! You can use the same strategies over and over, even on legend difficulty. As for CPU pitchers - they give you meatballs to hit way more than decent human players. Theyre definitely not spamming you with the sinker-cutter meta...they're giving you lots of fastball and curves to mash.

I want CPU to be more of an honest challenge. Right now, it usually just feels like a punching bag to grind against (even on higher difficulty - so whats the point of calling it higher difficulty?)

Yet, there's all these posts that go "why is CPU so good!!!" What?

You could intersperse AI (with a random person's voice - not a famous person) with the other commentary. AI should easily be good enough to say interesting things at this point

They've kinda always been this way - you can't say "it's gatcha" or "sds greed"....like, if they really wanted you to buy packs, they'd price them in a way that makes sense. This isn't even gambling - it's a guaranteed loss! So who would buy?

I like RoFlo commentary. I don't know why we can't use some AI for commentary in games these days - to make it more varied. Like, ask AI to throw in an interesting line every so often. Because any commentary repeats so often.

I don't get why the power creep goes so fast. In a lot ways, the game plays better with gold players than diamonds. All of their line drives don't get caught, doubles and triples happen more frequently like they should, etc. Yet, every year it's like we are racing to get to 99s. Why?

@Teak2112_MLBTS But, I keep saying - they could come up with ways for you to use lesser cards. Like, they could actually require you to build good theme teams...

If you're NMS and you don't have some cheesy stub-making method (like some flipping algorithm), it's gonna take you till July, with average luck. But, that's how it's intended to be. Maybe longer if you also try to buy new collections, spotlight, etc.

If we lived in the old pre-microtransactions vudeo game world, people would just accept this....remember the days when you actually had to do everything in a game to get the best rewards? The old days, before content creators were a thing - ah, nostalgia

It seems to vary - lots of others feel like there's never any bloops in their games. Its all lineouts and home runs, and whoever runs into the homer wins
