How does this happen? Do they dash board or turn their system off mid ball flight to make sure someone doesnt get credit.
I wouldnt know how or think of doing this.
I can understand doing this in events if you get matched up with a 1000 rated player. Those guys need jobs.
These idiots ruined multi-player 2 years ago for casuals when they took away br and ranked programs. They are complete Morons
Yes xp, rewards, cards etc. All need to be obtainable the exact same on both avenues. Offline and online players get the same exact everything. Choose a path, online or offline.
Obviously offline will need more work than online like stat missions etc. to earn the same as online.
This may not even be a good solution^ tired of grinding offline.
@palmerjones_PSN right. Give us online players more to play for. Right now its all offline grinding. 15 mini seasons, 15 conquests maps, dq maps, Showdowns.. they give us ranked and a lousy event once a week that takes 10 games max to finish it.
Battle royale is pointless. Non subject.
@Apolloz_99_MLBTS right so why give offline players the ability to purchase cards from online. And not give online players the ability to purchase from offline programs.
This is what im saying. This is my last year if I have to devote so much time in a mode I dont want to play. I dont want to play offline. I dont mind it once in a while. I could live with 20 percent. But yet im playing offline at least 70 percent of my game time, to progress. Total bs. Too much. Im an online player to my core.. being forced to play offline 70 percent of the time. Ridiculous
Hit ws in ranked, finished the event program there is nothing left online for me to play. Unles I want to mindlessly play events and blow through the multi-player program. Would take a week max, done with that also.
Making world series for the first time last year in 2025. Took me a few years of playing to accomplish it. Maybe I didnt try the first few years.
@Dolenz_PSN we are just gonna have to agree to disagree at this point. 99 percent of online cards can be purchased. Cant say the same for offline cards.
Maybe its not offline players faults that sds made a bone head dumb a.. decision to take away all the online programs away from us? So maybe I am blaming you guys for that. It could be i dont know.
I just want to have fun and enjoy the game. Im playing way too much offline this year. Way way way too much and its not fun. I have no choice if I want to keep up. I will not be purchasing the game next year if I have devote 70 percent of my time playing offline again. Ill be done.
@Thongypu_PSN fair point. Yes give us both more content for sure! More programs for both 100 percent.
@Thongypu_PSN ok thats cool. But its forcing players like me to also play offline. Playing vs the cpu will never be fun to me. They need to seperate us at this point. Find a way for us both to accomplish everything in dd. Playing the exact way we want online or offline. I should never have to play offline to accomplish things and neither should the offline players have to play online then.
@Dolenz_PSN not sure if a baseball game can ever be relaxing though. Your still jamming the controller to hit a 100 mph fastball against the cpu. Just as much as vs a player.
62 or 30 years old so what. Makes no difference. Age is in the mind. Its still baseball. This game is not relaxing either way. Im not buying all these excuses from offline players. You all can dislike me all you want.
Dd used to be primarily 80 percent online. They need to seperate us at this point. This ain't working. We dont want to play offline just as much as you dont want to play online.
@nolimitnick2064_XBL its like this at the start of a new season. Because everyone wants to get the ws rewards while they are still high in value. Gonna get better players early on.
This is exactly why we need more online modes besides ranked and the small events. No one plays br anymore. So thats all we got. The offline players are taking over dd unfortunately
@capardo_XBL blocked but still thinking about me 
@Dolenz_PSN we know bro. You would rather play mini seasons vs the cpu. ... High fast balls, low and away slider strikeouts. So fun.
You would rather play vs a cpu thats not even ai. Can you not find one competitive bone in your body?
You and your homies need to just stick to rtts or something else.
We are the real dd players. You guys are just cpu player card collectors. Sds may cater to you guys a little bit, because they want you to continue to buy the game. If it wasnt for that, none of you would be playing in dd.
Stop trying to turn our mode into a cpu baseball simulator.
No one on here mentioned the lack of online programs?? Like ranked, battle royale, longer more rewarding event programs! All stuff they used to have.
What about making another ranked mode 6 innings where we have to use certain cards and use some of these collection non meta cards? Etc
You guys are dropping the ball. If you are not asking for this. We need to make the game fun again, more creativity etc get more casuals wanting to play online.
Unless you all just want to play mini seasons and conquest 70 percent of the time?
@Joe-Del-Maestro_XBL nice bro! More people should have your attitude. And my attitude. I sucked so bad when I started playing. I remember going 5 wins and 40 losses in the events when I first started playing. Ranked record wasnt much better.
Alot of people on these forums experience it and quit. Instead of working through it they make excuses, call everyone who plays online toxic etc etc. and refuse to try and get better. I see right through that junk.
Money over integrity. Thats the American way. We may not be a 3rd world country. Doesnt mean we are good country. Actually america isnt even a country it is a business. Money over everything.
If they thought they could just sweep this under the rug. They are wrong. Most of their player base that did the right thing or things wont forget. This is not something you can sweep under the rug. Its been over a month. Alot of people are still pissed over it.
@Joe-Del-Maestro_XBL do not practice vs the computer in offline practice mode. The difference between playing the cpu in dd and playing online is night and day. The only way to get better is to keep playing online.
Make sure your monitor or tv and gaming platform are hard wired to your modem.
Put pressure on the pci, pick a spot in the strike zone to start your pci that you are most comfortable with. Particularly low and inside or high and inside. Never leave it just sitting in the middle or on an achor, keep the snap back always to the middle never ever, ever, leave your pci still attached to an anchor it promotes laziness.
Focus on the pitch out of the hand and get ready to meet the ball with the pci that you already have pressure on.
This is years of trial and error speaking from experience. Im not great. But im good.
@Onix_Savage22_PSN I feel like if you want to really enjoy this game. Stay away from the 900 plus rank. Let them all canabalize and cheat each other.
Other than that anything below 900 in ranked seems perfectly fine. Until I face a 1000 rank of course.
@Onix_Savage22_PSN omg I dont even want to play ranked in the 700 plus range now. Played another 1000 rank in events. I cannot believe how good these guys are at this game. I feel like ive become a good player. These guys are Another level good. Almost seems not possible to be that good. The majority of them seem to be streamers or twitch guys also.
