SDS,

DON'T hurry to fix mini seasons or the myriad of bugs/crashes/glitches in the game.

DON'T communicate with us in any meaningful way about what's wrong with the game.

DON'T apologize to those who paid a premium for 4 days' early access to a broken game.

But RUN to fix "the market" to ensure that persistent monetization is not threatened.

Shout out, SDS!

I actually kind of enjoy this troll. Harmless, tongue-in-cheek stuff. Well done.

@schnauzerface said in Trout, its been real bruh!:

3-year average my buttocks.

THIS. What the actual [censored].

In the meantime, Taylor Trammel shoots up seven points.

WITH 38 AT BATS.

SDS is on crack this year with these updates, period.

You forgot to attach your resume.

The first QOL enhancement should be an filter to see duplicate cards.

As a teacher, it would take me a decade , to arrive at 40k per year in the State of Idaho. And that's not a living wage here either. But I understand. 70k would be very difficult to get by on in California.

Move to Canada. Our dipshit teachers average 88K/year here. That doesn't include gold plated benefits and pension

I definitely didn’t get into the right profession,Teachers here have it [censored] good. A year round salary even though you don’t work in the summer, any time you whine the government throws tax payers dollars at you, and all you have to do is babysit for about 5 hours of the day.

So much disinformation!

I actually get the summer, 2 weeks for Christmas, 2 weeks for Spring Break, a 4 day Easter break, and various other days off.

And it's more like 6-7 hours a day.

But if you have a stack of essays to grade, which is the running normal for me, and had to prep for the year during summer break, which almost all teachers do, you'd understand that it's a job where you take your work home with you almost constantly. And the stress of being "on" all the time is real.

But do enjoy my summers!

Worst change SDS made to single player DD this year: cpu pitchers on rookie difficulty throwing absolute garbage most of the time. Makes grinding a chore. Way to make single-player grinding feel more like moments, SDS. Ugh.

THAT'S what I'm complaining about today.

It's "whoever," not "whomever."

Lol...WHAT. Also I should be able to smash a homer when I'm down in the 7th lol. The game is massively flawed but come on.

Go watch mlb. Show me evidence of a consistent dirt ball that wasn't accidentally thrown on a plus count or even count with less than 2 strikes.

Uh, it's a video game in competitive mode. Competitive mode. Why on earth would you strip back basic options?

This isn't Madden's cover-2 deep zone not working and people spamming deep outs.

It's you swinging at absolute garbage.

Don't swing.

(By the way, I guarantee you that if actual MLB players swung at this stuff, pitchers would never throw strikes. Stop swinging.)

Their non-communication has been atrocious. Fixing the mini seasons bug and dezombifying the tutorials are musts. Telling the community they're aware and working on it also should be a must. You want to be a live service game, treat your consumers respectfully when you put out hot garbage.

OP, the game right now, like it or not, is calibrated for Pinpoint Pitching and Zone Hitting.

If you're not doing those, well...that's on you.

NMS is not difficult IF you're willing to spend more time, grind for packs, and flip. Ugh.

I'd rather play Franchise than DD. But they've completely neglected the mode.

By the way, there's a reason why EA, SDS, 2K et al. won't allow their older, pre-card collecting games for backwards compatibility. Those games [censored] SMOKE games from the past 8 years or so.

I have a ps2 and every now and then roll out the NCAA 06. Not even close.

He can't layoff sliders or hit sliders away! To easy to strike out! I'll pass.

You mean YOU can't, lol.

No i'm talking about when facing him. But nice try.

Must be talking single player then. Fair enough.

Think it's been like that for a few years. Read up in the DD guide on your team's tab.

People using Miller often cant resist up and in outlier FB. I've mashed dozens of HR off them just waiting on this one single pitch. Then they quit because, Waaaaa he hit my outlier.

CPU pitchers on rookie...been complaining about it since release. Not that beating them is difficult, of course, but I'll repeat this:

NOBODY PLAYS ON ROOKIE FOR A CHALLENGE OR TO BE PATIENT AT THE PLATE.

They play on rookie to mash and grind missions and/or pxp.

SDS changing the cookie ratio on rookie was a horrible move. Absolutely horrible.

Oh joy. Two guys we've had a million versions of the past few years. Hurray.
