@macdaddy-o_PSN said in Easy Fix for Dashboarding, SDS -- DO IT!!!:

This seems incredibly simple, and I don't understand why SDS can't fix this problem that plagues the game online. When a player hits a home run, it's clear that the announcer knows it and the crowd knows it, ergo, the program knows it. So just count the [censored] HR and RBIS and Runs from the MOMENT THE BALL LEAVES THE BAT. Don't wait for runners to cross the plate, and let little, stupid, [censored] players pull the plug and cheat people of their rightfully earned stats. How hard can that possibly be to program?

I was playing a Ranked Season game, grinding out points for the August players to both A) get the Mookie card for the current program and B) grind out the last points I needed for the Extreme Program and Donaldson card.

I'm playing a tight 0-0 pitcher's duel, the kind of game that anyone who likes baseball can appreciate. Finally, in the bottom of the ninth, I have the bases loaded with two outs. He throws a 2-0 fastball down the middle and I crush it for a grand slam for Alex Bregman, who needs the points. And this complete, disrespectful, hateful troll of a person dashboards the game, so I don't get the HR, RBIs, etc. What a pathetic sore loser. Makes Billy Martin seem like a grateful gentleman.

I'm fed up with this happening -- as are a lot of players -- and it's high time SDS fix it. I spend enough time on this game not to have to lose valuable player points and do more work to achieve what's rightfully been earned. Fix it.

You know what "plagues" this game online? Bad matchups. I'll dashboard you in a second, wanna know why? I'm over 20 games under .500, almost every RS game I play, it's against someone with a winning record. I can actually predict wins and loses before the game starts. SDS should not constantly match me against opponents that are clearly much better than I am. I'm not going to let someone just bash dingers against me. I'll usually give up a run or two, but I'm not playing this game to get blown out of every game.
And your 0-0 "pitcher duel?" Boring. That's practically every game I play. If I knew I had a chance to score, I'd stick around. But I rarely score more than a run or 2, so why keep playing? Most games are 1 swing 1 home run 1 win. I hate those games. Nothing but flyout, groundout, strike out. The game is entirely too stingy with hits and runs. And if your 9th inning grand slam was proceeded by walks and/or hit batters, I'd dashboarded it too. You didn't earn it, the game gifted it to you. So yea, its simple. SDS can improve matchmaking and allow more offensive success. And stop the walks/hit batter setup. I can't believe how many times, late in a game, all of a sudden I can't throw a strike, give up a walk or hit a batter followed by a home run. I'll dashboard that every time. But your right, fix the game.
