This is the worst suggestion I have seen on here in ages. You cannot read someone's mind in real life, why should you be able to in the game and exploit their patterns and habits? Awful idea, with all due respect.
Showing the opponents feedback swing is pretty close to exploiting their habits.
A lot of things in this game don't mirror real life.

Use Lucas Giolito and Eric Gagne a lot. H/9 for both is 125 maxed out. And get ahead in counts and have a stacked lineup.

SDS treats the fans better than any sports gaming company. There’s no debate. Are they perfect? Far from it. Way better than EA and it’s no contest.
That's like saying John Gacy is better than Jeff Dahmer...because Gacy only killed his victims he didn't eat them too.
This is the worst analogy I have ever seen. Comparing EA's trash, or 2K's, to the awesome content SDS gives us for free, is such an insult to SDS.
Any Nationals or Angels player with a paper bag over their heads as card art, because their teams suck this season, works for me.
I don't care if it is two of them, or twenty. Us customers all want new stadiums. I know it can be difficult to upgrade a game, or render new artwork, etc. And I also know they have to pay for the rights to those new stadiums.
So do it.
So many of us spend SO much extra money on this game. It's the least you could do, SDS. Give us Old Comiskey Park. Tiger Stadium. The Kingdome. Candlestick Park. Something. Anything. Old Comiskey and Tiger Stadium, specifically, should be easy to render. How much can the rights possibly cost? I would even pay for it as DLC!
Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be playing games on Hall of Fame mode, nor did I think I would ever complete this.
Only two wins left, one against the AL in six innings, and one against the all-time stars in nine innings, and the Ruth card is mine.
I have lucked out quite a bit, except for the last game, which took me three tries and 16 innings to win.
An absolutely insane grind, though.
@Ikasnu said in It's about time. The White Sox finally got some respect in live series.:
Purchased an Abreu jersey shirt when I went to a game several years ago. I'm glad to announce that it is for that sole reason he went diamond today.
Honestly I'm a closet White Sox fan so I'm really happy to see the love as well.
I am in my 40s, and this is the best-hitting Sox team I've ever seen, by far. The 2005 team was one of the most complete teams of all-time fundamentally, but this team can flat-out rake. 24 home runs in seven games is no joke.
Long overdue.
Gave up a two-run homer to Yellich after a walk in the 5th, but that was the only hit I allowed. Got it done on the first try. High fastballs up and in, slow junk down and or away, folks.

I pulled Trout from these packs, that’s 180K I’ll take it anyday
I've got you beat. I pulled a live series Max Scherzer AND a Prime Rob Dibble. 200k. Unbelievable luck.

Sucks for those of us that already finished Jackie. They could have added a few packs or something.
This. Especially since this was probably the toughest player grind all season by far.
I disagree. Granted I had the voucher. I had 300 stars in less than 24 hours (offline franchise, hint hint)
You didn't get the 99 overall Jackie Robinson card as part of an innings program dude. It was a separate evolution player and even the best players online were fuming about some of the difficulty of the moments.

@stretch1977 said in Jackie Robinson Conquest:
Doesn’t appear any program stars go towards the 7th inning.
Yeah, that's a slap it the face to us trying to grind it out these last six days.
I'm sitting at 240 program stars grinding for Frank Thomas, and while I know I will likely still get to 300 in the next six days, it would have been nice if instead of giving me 35 Jackie Robinson program points I can't use because I already have his card, if you gave us even 15 program stars as an alternative for those who already have the Robinson card. Makes me feel like those last countless hours I grinded for that 99 overall Robinson were a waste now. Those moments were absolutely brutal to get from 94 overall to 99.
Been spending the past month trying to beat these over 30 times.
By some ridiculous stroke of luck, I beat both of them in a row with 18 consecutive shutout innings in the past few hours. Gimme that 93 overall evolution card, finally.
He's the reason I threw sidearm when I used to pitch, and was my favorite pitcher growing up. So getting this card was a must. I thought I would never beat these challenges.
@InigoMontoya_75 said in Online noob questions:
I'm one of those guys who much prefers to play offline. I'm older and simply don't have the reaction times to be competitive. Nor do I have hours and hours a day to practice. I can't even keep up with all the reward programs as they're released. However, more and more missions require online play, so I figured I need to dive in.
What is the difference between Ranked Seasons and Casual Online? Is there a difference in how an opponent is found? Or in the rewards? And BR is 3 inning games using a drafted team?
Thanks for any input on how someone feeling tentative about online play can start.
If you like rage quitters, toxic behavior, and people who obsess over this 24-7 rather than sitting back and enjoying the experience, this is the place for you. Good luck, man. It's why I don't play head to head online against actual people usually.
I wonder how long this will take to patch since this was content that was released 15 minutes ago.
@ItsaCanesthing said in Apparently they have changed the Jackie Moments:
I just saw this on Reddit....
The Jackie Robinson Moments have been made easier.
Tally 7 Total Bases -> Tally 4 Total Bases
Hit 2 Home Runs -> Hit 1 Home Run
Tally 2 Doubles, 1 Stolen Base -> Tally 2 Extra Base Hits, 1 Stolen Basehttps://www.reddit.com/r/MLBTheShow/comments/g386f4/jackie_robinson_moment_changes/
Is this legit?
If it is, it doesn't matter now, since I lucked into beating them yesterday. Oh well. No idea if it is true or not, though. Those missions suuuuuucked.

@tfrog76 said in This forum is so toxic:
Propose any idea here, even if it is a good one, and all you get are personal attacks.
Then people wonder why some of us choose to avoid online play. It's that childish, immature toxicity that makes me avoid playing head to head games.
That same toxicity is literally costing you potential customers playing more online, SDS. I really wish you would crack down on the behavior on this site. Have fun arguing everyone. I am off to have a life away from this silliness.
If you can’t handle the fire. Stay out of the kitchen.
This forum is tired of being lied to and deceived with the same ol SDS dance year after year.
Thanks for proving my point. It's called having respect for others while disagreeing. Try it sometime.
