Working about 70 hours a week. No time to play + no time to flip = no Mickey, no mouse, no Mantle for me.

@PhatWhiteOwl said in Quit Dashboarding:

What is dashboarding?

Is when you call Ramone on facetime and tell him how bad the game plays. You should try it, it's fun.

@sandule said in Update 1.11 Discussion:

So far so good. I don't really see the increase in PCI but that might just be my old eyes. I've only played one game so far on HoF so much more testing to do.

The increase size for the PCI wasn't really needed, it was the timing window that needed adjustments. Glad to hear its about the same.

Do you realize that some of us have a life? A job, a wife, kids, a house to care for, a hobby or two, pets that also consume some of our time. The grind only brings deceptions to some of us. Due to some equipment failures I am taking a rare weekday off and instead of been grinding mlb the show, I am surf fishing in the emerald coast.

Shorter timing window for fastballs, that's why most people are late on them right now. They truly feel like 110 mph.

@mitchhammond24 said in So to the person I just played.:

Good thing u were able to overcome your huge internet disadvantage and put up a good inning.

Don't get him started please lol

@RonnieGant1992 said in Cobb vs. Walker:

I can't justify taking Walker out of lineup by far my best bat this year.

We are on the same boat.

Pitch speeds are about the same. Hitting/Timing window is messed up for sure.

@Xx_YoungSama_xX said in Rng is causing decent players to lose in Ranked Seasons:

For everyone upset at getting screwed over use this post to rant. When the game chooses to [censored] you over theres nothing you can do. Friday i will be trying out alec bohm and along with enjoying using gavin lux more to enioy myself on ranked seasons while ignoring my 701 rating and 18 and 18 record this season. Again I am 18 and 18 and I was one of the best players in the game last year. Ignore the trolls that defend the game. You can still have fun. Switch up the lineup. We are all dealing with the same bs.

Sorry but if you are 18 and 18 there is not a possible way for you to be one the best players this year, last year or any other previous year. I hardly play, don't consider myself the best neither a top player and I have never had such a bad record. To be decent at this game you'll have to win at least 2 out of 3 games. If you don't, you are just another one from the bunch.

@taco_truck_face said in Long list of best cards at each position:

Def some room for discussion here, but I also think you've given this some deep thought and consideration as well. I'd put Pablo and Wieters above Posey. I think Cano is better 2nd considering how important power is this year, and Jackie and Murphy need serious consideration as higher contenders on the 2b list as well.

Have you played the 99 Maddox in RS? I'm interested in how that card plays - especially at lower RS ranking levels.

I just faced Maddox today at the 600 level (all-star) if my opponent mixed up his pitches better I wouldn’t of had a chance. But the cutter inside if you can locate that, and not hang the curveball, circle-change I would say he’s very usable at the lower levels tbh

Is he anything like Orel?
Orel doesn't throw gas but is so good.

Orel Hershiser's release point is what makes him so good. Of course that his pitch repertoire helps but other pitchers with similar repertoire can't do as well as Hershiser. However, if you are facing Hershiser just switch to an offset camara view and problem solved.

@Aussie392 said in How to get less lag from online?:

your playstastion should run at about 12 MBPS P/s down and about 3-4 MBPS p/s Up

Yeah, that's more than enough but a lot of people don't get that. The main issues in lag are connection stability, ping and bufferbloat. Speed matters but a ps4 doesn't needs much to operate properly.

@SpudXpert27 said in Which Catcher (no created ) if have access to all of them:

This is just my preference but I love Yadi. You might say b-but no 80 power. It's still good

Yadi is a beast, quick swing and high exit velos. On top of that, diamond defense with 90+ arm.

@ComebackLogic said in Every HoF Game Destined to be 2-1 or 1-0:

I just quit playing RS when I get to 700 now. Not worth the aggravation, it plays like absolute [censored] on HoF this year. I had a 15 inning 1-0 game with 46 combined strikeouts followed by a 17 inning 2-1 game with 45 combined strikeouts last season and I came to realise SDS are absolutely clueless and don’t play their own game at any meaningful level.

Hell, I stopped playing and can't get to HOF. Hard to rise when 30 balls go right over the middle of the plate. A thumbless, blind man could score 8 runs off me. And when the pitchers look like they are throwing 120, forget about it.

Here’s me playing on the best connection I can possibly get on my end, wired etc. This is why I hate this game.

Oh boy, that sucks. Check your ping and bufferbloat. I have a feeling its the bufferbloat screwing you. I play a friend of mine from London and he does alright, a few others are in Spain and they are alright too.

@Shugga40 said in Managers and Sponsorships in DD:

Cora and Beltran would cost more stubs then Trout at the beginning of the year

Specially if they come with the trash can.

@Ikasnu said in Check swings need to be nerfed:

Check swings need to be removed. Swing or don't swing.

That's a lot better than having these check swing bandits out there.

@TeamPotro said in Cutters:

Nothing more useless in this game than the cutters. You get hitters to chase and to swing early on them and you still getting smashed. Smh!

2 seamers are worst.

Oh boy, its got to be bad for you to prefer the [censored] bobblehead grind. I only gave Yelich a few tries and on the 11th or so I got xtra bases back to back to then got bb's back to back, closed app and fired up Fortnite. Haven't look at The Show since.

For all of you complaining about input *me included * I am sorry to tell you that little Billy and all his friends pre-order The Show 20 and they are boycotting if they can't win. We are the minority and they represent the mass out there that's why this game will always have flaws build in, I've been playing this garbage since it came out on PS3 on 2008 I believe and every year is the same.

@MrGamebred said in Legend difficulty sliders:

I'm doing a franchise on legend difficulty to kill time and practice until 20 drops and want to emulate RS pitch speeds and anything else that might be different.
Is there a specific slider setup for that? Do I just boost pitch speeds? Leave it as is? Not sure so TIA for any help!

I am doing the same thing and I had to tuned down the cpu hitting because it was plain stupid or I just wouldn't play it. I did increase the cpu fastballs speeds by 2 and offspeed by 1. It will make it an average online HoF game. All of this while pitching and hitting set to Legend.

I know they were going to patch it, the hitting was just too good.
