Yes I'm old. I'm a 64yo man who has played the show since 2015 and as a lifelong baseball fan probably have a different perspective then the usual age group that plays this game. Growing up with a family that held season tickets for the orioles for many years I attended alot of games and saw alot of the legends play in person. People who play the show have different reasons for playing and find enjoyment in the game for different reasons. For me it's the nostalgia and using alot of players I got to see in person who at the time were just ballplayers trying to make it and then went on to become hall of farmers. I'm not a good player and play online minimally but still enjoy it win or lose. I'm sure there aren't many people my age who play but for the true baseball fan you can't beat it. There are people who play just to win at all costs and will dashboard if they don't but I just laugh at that and move on to the next game. Anyway I just wanted to share that even though video games are geared towards the younger generation there are still some old timers who jump in to have some fun also. I've thought about doing a YouTube channel geared towards the older crowd who play this game but not sure if enough older people play. Thank you SDS for providing many hours of enjoyment.

I'm 63yo and still really enjoy the game. Also had to give up on the zone hitting which makes me not as competitive in online play but still really enjoy a good ranked game with a evenly matched opponent. It's not about how good you are it's about how much fun your having.

Glad to hear your doing better MRAD. Home myself with a disability and like you this game has got me thru some tough times. I realize all the complaints but for me this game has been a godsend.

Ofcourse it's frustrating but it's still within the first week of launch coming off a year with the pandemic and adding x-box users to the mix. They deserve a chance to work thru these issues. A month down the road if these problems are still there then I would agree it's a major problem. From most of the posts I've read people are happy with the gameplay and content. I know I am.

Just curious how everyone deals with friendly quits. My rule of thumb is although I dont like it if the game hasnt started yet I will give them the benefit of the doubt and accept. Or if I'm losing and they ask for one I will accept assuming they had something come up. But if I'm winning (which is rare) I wont accept. I'm not a very good player online so if I'm actually able to take a lead I'm not gonna give it away because someone dosent want to take a loss. I can actually say I've never asked for a friendly quit. Just wondering what everyone's take is on this. Happens almost every online game I play.

In all fairness SDS did say they would adjust the cap if they felt it needed to be.

I bet you missed the spaces top left of map. And if you only have 1 in the hex it will say no territory to attack have atleast 2 in hex and move around until you find missing territory.

You know they just launched this game less than a week ago. Why cant everyone be patient and give SDS time to work thru these problems. Yes it's frustrating but they have acknowledged they understand the problem and are working to solve the issues. Everyone here agrees they have put out a good product but are dealing with server issues. They have always put out a good product or you wouldnt keep coming back year after year. Instead of all the negativity let's be patient.

I pulled mookie who earlier that day dropped from a 91 to an 89. Was still selling for 88,000 at the time.

We should start a 50 plus league. Pitchers can only throw changeup and 5 built in bathroom breaks per game...lol
