@Onix_Savage22_PSN It’s insane…I truly feel like my account has some glitch or something because I just never win EVER. It’s comical but true! I’m a WS player that has NEVER won a WC game!

Waiting for “that’s baseball” guy.

I would categorize myself as a “good” player. Not elite, Not great…But good. I play RS when I’m caught up on all the offline stuff. I usually make WS about 3 times per game cycle. I gave this summary of my skill level so my next statement comes through loudly….I have never won a Weekend Classic game. Last year went 0-6 EVERY WEEK, ALL YEAR. And this year? The same…0-6 again. And I was in no danger of winning any of them…I don’t want this. If I can’t win AT ALL then what is the point? So SDS…Please make RS & WC two separate modes. Don’t force us into things against our will.

Now…I need a nerd to go back & independently confirm what I just said is the truth on 25 or people will think I’m embellishing. Any of you gotcha guys will do, Thanks.

For me it’s the political themed images that need to go the most. That [censored] is in our faces all day, PLEASE just leave it out of the game for a few minutes of not having to deal with it.

I HATE duplicate no sell [censored]…Wish I could even just quick sell them for zero stubs. Sick of looking at them.

Events will always be less stressful than RS because there’s nothing on the line. You lose in ranked you lose ranking points, your record takes a hit & you then have to make up for the loss….Whereas events you just restart after a loss, no harm no foul.

@Ditka06-_MLBTS I’ll try to explain one more time, Then I’ll just move on….I am decent online, Usually make WS 2 or 3 times per game cycle. The problem I have is that 75% of the player base are sore losers/toxic players. Most games they either quit after immediately falling behind, bunt dance, keep playing the pause game, ect…I would rather just have a chill regular baseball experience with the cpu playing some conquest or mini seasons. Now if SDS ever comes up with a matchmaking system that matches you with similar players (Skill & behavioral patterns) then I might prefer online more. But until that day, I’m totally fine playing more offline than online.

@DeleteyourTTVBTW_MLBTS he makes a lot of good points. Especially about online play. Do you want to sit on the game and play mini seasons over and over all year? Offline players are lame. Chickens who are scared of competitive gaming.

I know this is a hard concept for some people but not everyone is playing this game to be competitive lol…Some people just enjoy toking up & chillin while playing a no stress game against a cpu that isn’t going to throw a tantrum when it falls behind.

Just because you measure your masculinity & worth in how well you play a baseball game on xbox doesn’t make it truth.

I’m actually ok with the visual bug…Saves me the disappointment of my silver pull.

Unless you’re a OCD guy that MUST own every card, This is a great year to not do it. Extremely mid rewards, NONE of those cards will still be the best at their position in 2-3 months. LS should be viewed as purely for the OCD/Collection guys thing.

Reading all this flipping talk & I’m just like….I miss jersey exchanges!

I enjoy RoFlo but I do think the experience struggles because he doesn’t have a partner. Maybe next year give him Lauren Shehadi or Bob Costas.

that's baseball

Except it’s not. As I already stated - Happens on average twice per game in MLB. That should be reflected in it’s official simulation game.

There is on average 1 double play per team per game in MLB. Yet on this game they occur about once an inning. Must be REALLY hard to make an accurate game.

@doobiebross66-72_PSN that cool. Id rather not see someone's record going into a game anyway. All it does is [censored] me off

THIS!!!….Oh you’re 55-3, gfy!

Skenes’ ERA is 67 lol…You gotta hold onto him, Don’t sell him low.

@The412Smoke_XBL selling to sell a card and undercutting the current price by 10 stubs and instantly being undercut by 1 stub with 4 order instantly. I have clip proof of multiple cards of multiple occasions it cannot just be coincidence. Videos of macro programs on twitter this morning on confirmed it.

I guess the reason I think it could just be coincidence is that there are literally hundreds of thousands of people playing this game at the same time. We’re all buying & selling so it’s really not that unlikely that multiple people are buying/selling the same 1 out of 750 cards at the same time. Mathematically it’s actually highly likely.

How are you all sure it’s bots? First couple months of the game has always been a very active community market. I’ve gotten all the commons through golds by putting in sell now orders. Bots didn’t prevent me from getting these cards. I think it’s just a large player base right now is all.

The mouth pieces on the streams always say the game is play your way, If you don’t like a certain mode then you can earn cards a different way…The problem is this is simply not true. If you want to actually complete collections to get the players that will be required on all collections going forward then it is REQUIRED you play the modes they hide the no sell cards behind. And that’s their right to do so, But don’t act like it’s not mandatory.

I am enjoying grinding TA. The one mistake I believe SDS made was the 100 total bases requirement. All the other missions flow well together & finish at approximately the same time with the 100 total bases being the exception. This one requirement is causing a major bottleneck. Had they made it 50 bases it would have fit in with the rest.

I was a big fan of created player. My switch hitting short stop from Seattle - Eddie Vedder!

I understand why they got rid of it…Too many people were using it to create an unrealistic sidewinder that was 6’10 and could throw 100+ and then throw a knuckleball lol
