It's a valid complaint. Just don't need five new threads about the same issue every time connections are dropped. SDS gets the importance of fixing this.
Unless you work on a software development team you will not fully understand the cost associated with bringing any software to the market and sustaining that product. There are more costs than you could ever imagine. You have to pay developers to develop new features, those features have to be tested, database administrators supporting a data warehouse, system administrators supporting servers, load balancers, networking folks, security efforts, virtual machine efforts, you have hardware costs associated with faster consoles and other platforms, you have to market the game, you have to pay for licenses, technical support staffing to work and track support tickets.
Then...when you roll something out that goes worse than planned, you have the additional cost of researching the issue, developing hotfixes, testing those fixes, deploying those fixes and community outreach. If people want to talk about money and limit resources then they should understand why SDS isn't responding to the masses with constant updates. I am as upset about how the game has functioned thus far as everyone else, but I whole heartedly believe that SDS is working crazy hours trying to fix all of the issues and will have the issues resolved moving forward. SDS can be plenty accountable without giving you your money back. But...if anyone wants to know why companies gives out extras for preorders, this release is a perfect example of mitigating the risk.
Personally, I am not interested in either of those guys. Now, if it was Barry Bonds.
So SDS changes the analysis method on hitting. I still don't get it. My issue continues to be that a circle (not the ball or the bat) determines if a ball that is timed well is struck well. If the PCI isn't the ball (which it is not) and timed swings are good or better, what metric determines why a ball was popped up or grounded out for example? If we only get two data points when three are needed, how do we really analyze a result?
Ball is in the PCI and timed well. Now what determines the outcome, launch angle and exit velocity?
I will chime in:
Fielding issue pop up and errors do not always feel even. Many are poorly decided.. an error in inning one is not the same as an error in inning 8.
Bloopers when they couldn't previously touch you. They didn't figure you out the third time through. In real baseball the odds of hitting a pitcher increase the more you see them. Maybe the game implements late inning sliders accordingly?
Pitch stamina and recovery... one person may be starting their first ranked game. You can be at a disadvantage to start. Why does stamina impact a new game against a different opponent?
Baserunning... this could go with fielding, but it is a huge problem. Baserunning when tied with poor fielding animations could equal something other than skill impacting the outcome.
Internet connection and lagging.
There are MANY things that can impact these games outside of basic ability.
Too, too funny!
What about Mookie justifies a huge card?
White Sox: Thomas Oakland: Giambi Tampa Bay: David Price Reds: Larkin Rockies: Vinny Castillo (New Legend) Mets: Seaver Pirates: Honus Wagner
Mike Scott and Robin Yount are the Evolution players for the month. Reggie Jackson is the big reward at 25 points. The main difference this month is:
27: FoD Pack 29: BO Sheffield 30: Prime Britton 32: MS Sandoval 33: Sig McCutchen 34: MS Young 35: Sig Thome
If you didn't think a bigger collection was coming, you should now, lol.
I thought that rating mods were not used any longer.
@beanball0571_psn said in PCI Question:
It’s due to H/9. If it’s 110 or above PCI’s shirk
What is my contact against that handed pitcher is 110 or above? Shouldn't it offset?
For some context, I have played BR and Events recently. I have not played online ranked and jumped into the new RS. My opponent threw Marquez, Minter, Pomeranz and Doolittle. My PCI even with Level IV Finest Brett, Level III Takashi Ruth and others seemed very small. I was only play on a 430'ish ranking. If the PCI is that small at that level there is no way I am hitting the ball on Hall of Fame. Am I crazy or is the PCI smaller in ranked?
When the season finishes or by hitting square (PS5) on the mini seasons tab (do not go into the mini season) and confirm.
I am on PS and the app doesn't connect for me.

But spending money to complete something isn't exactly an accomplishment.

People can't win here. The only victory is to not post. People say they are NMS and someone says, go outside with your kids dead beat Dad. Spent money and someone say, easy to do with Mommy's credit card. The only 3 ways to do something is to grind, spend or a combination of both.
The NMS people crack me up especially. In all honesty, if cards do not make you a good player than who cares how someone gets somewhere in the game? Posts like his are somewhat humble brags, but it is ok to be excited about something no matter how you got there.
Just popped up on my screen for some reason, but nothing new in the shop. I have been playing all day. Pretty odd.

I have no issue with him finishing the program early. Just mentioning the humble brag of him creating the thread. What people do with their time is no business of mine. My kids hang out with me a lot while I play and I let them open up a lot of packs. I also work from home and some days are slow from a support perspective. People could judge me if I posted the same thing, but grinding is pretty easy with the game if you are a card collector. Getting to a million by now is kind of impressive, lol. I think I am close to 725k and I play a decent amount. This guy has almost the program boss worth of XP more than me.
@chestnuts20_psn said in Optional: Collect all April Monthly Awards:
"This optional collection can be completed to accelerate progress towards Lightning Anthony Rizzo, but it is not required." Pretty dumb that they offer a "collect all" to get you to Rizzo faster but then make the remaining packs no sell so you are forced to have 4 dupes if you do it. Unreal.

They know some people will spend to get a free card sooner. Paying 25k for each of those cards to recoup 5k for each card makes no sense. Some things in the game should be grind only IMO. Cards are not holding value this year, even WS and RS cards. Losing 20k a card to earn a non-sellable card that isn't great is a bad strategy.

One game ban for a racist remark by Donaldson, 3 game ban for a slap about fantasy football. He assaulted Joc. Donaldson didn't. Imo Pham should get DFAed. He also threatened violence against a against a different player for a hard slide into a catcher. The guy is immature. A poor professional and dangerous. I don't consider slaps dangerous. I guess I have no issue if Donaldson just got a more severe penalty. One is a crime the other just hurt the boys feelings. End of story.

One is a crime that will not lead to an arrest. One hurts baseball and one doesn't. All I am saying.
