18 was so absolutely annoying to play. 95 percent of the runs scored in 18 came via the homerun. If you didnt have an all power team in 18, you were at a big disadvantage. 19 started off really well, but is now almost as bad as 18 was as far as needing homeruns to win. Not quite as bad though.

I have him and his power plays well above his attributes. I'm not a great hitter but I can still manage to claw my way to or close to world series each season so I'm usually playing at hall of fame difficulty and he still is hitting above 300 for me with plenty of homerun power.

Anybody feel like bunting took a couple steps back this year? Not saying we have to go back to how it was in 18 or 19 when their fix for bunting was a rocket to a fielder just so nobody could bunt for base hits anymore, but this year 90 percent of bunts with players with decent bunting ability are going for hits. This can't be realistic, have to find a happy medium here. Maybe make it to where you have to move the pci while bunting to make it more challenging.

I know this has been in multiple threads and the marketplace being crazy slow, but I was wondering if SDS can get back with us and let us know if this problem is being addressed or if this is something we are going to have to deal with until the game dies down months from now. As it is right now it takes like 20 seconds to just put one order in. So slow.

Must be it, guess I'm just angry at myself for being terrible at hitting this year, thanks guys

Would like to know this as well, anybody?

Lol woops, thanks

How do you get these socks? Do you have to play retro mode?

Ok thanks a lot man, just wanted to make sure I didn't miss something

The only way to level up your created player in diamond dynasty is through road to the show? There aren't any diamond dynasty missions for your created player?

Is it just me or do the pitch speeds need to be ramped up just a touch. Scared for my life to pitch to almost anyone in this event

Yea they definitely tried to fix it, but they need to find a happy medium here, pitchers get tired really quick

I saw the legend reveal with him in it, so I must have missed something.

Hahahaha, somebody please post the bird explosion video. If it's PETA allowed.

The real reason people are tripping about Randy is he was revealed in the first trailer for the game along with Ryan Howard. They wiped that video from the their Twitter and website and have pushed every other legend they've revealed except for him. So as of now, there is no trace of him on their sites. I'm pretty new to this game, I've heard a few people say they probably didn't intend to reveal him right away and that they will reintroduce him in the final stream before early release.

SDS cancelled a few players this year , Robbie Alomar for sure. Marcell Ozuna and Trevor Bauer never had a second card after their assault allegations and the big controversy of course was Kirby Puckett who got a collection diamond for the Twins and everybody was pining for his 99 but it never materialized. So there is much speculation that SDS decided to cancel him because of his prior assualt allegations before his death.

Randy to my knowledge has none of these issues other than the dramatic 100 mph pitch that turned an ill timed flying by into dust.

Did I miss anything?

Ok thanks man, was starting to worry he wasn't going to be in the game. I've been waiting for this guy to get back in the show.

I know I'm late to the party and I can't seem to find the specific thread that this answer is in, but what exactly is the controversy why randy Johnson may or may not be in this game?
