Anyone else having issues trying to play Online Ranked games? I updated the game this morning but now every time I find a matchup in Online ranked it doesn’t even get to the lineup’s, it just closes out to the main start screen with “CHALLENGE FAILED - The game server closed your game session”. Annoying…
Why are y’all complaining so much that it’s taking a while? Don’t you want them to actually take the time to figure out the issues, fix them properly so it doesn’t happen again? Y’all are on here crying like it’s life and death that the servers down and being fixed. Let them do their thing and fix it properly and stop crying. Yes we all paid to play, yes it’s not ideal, yes we are frustrated but god [censored] let them fix it!

@thewooderboy_mlbts said in Why directional is trash for online...: I’m 35-5 using directional in online ranked lmao stop hating He he Exhibit 1.(?) Now then...... How hard is it to start an APPROXIMATE timing window and then watch For the attributes and algorithms to do the actual " playing" for you ?? You guys want to use that type mechanism, then have at it..AND do it against each other not skill based players. We just want a way to isolate the tee ball boys out and away from the guys who actually Aim at the ball With some sort of simulation of a bat . There's plenty of players to go around... BUT the two different skill sets have no business in the same game whatsoever. Never will, never has. Also to those saying the top players ( say top 20 in online rated for instance ) "ALL use zone"... That is false and in a big way... I will not out anybody by handle nor name but a fact IS a fact. The no foul balls to speak of, and home run mashers out of no where toddler tee ball boys are indeed as I print this sitting in the top tiers on page ONE as I type. Btw .what's worse(?)) The full game start out people who use that mess OR... The guys (& gals) who long pause and swap to tee ball hitting simply in essence because the opponent pitches good and they can't hit...OR when being behind they then get a man on base....you guessed it they pause and go to toddler tee ball and suddenly hit the game winning lick after striking out 15 times prior. It's ridiculous to say the least and there also needs to be " a settings lock" to prevent these settings manipulative changes ,* except for " camera views". I use mound visits every single time on defense and on offense " quick menu " at the plate ONLY as a way not for just for authenticity But foremost to show respect to the other player that I Am NOT one of the dime a dozen multitudes of "them" who will do anything to win games against faceless people who to top it off will give you NO prize !! (Hmm how novel I know). There's plenty of " me" and my type..but overall this game (just as the forum) has became over ran with the EXact depiction of this classless , tactless, and The " me me me " generation filled society in which we unfortunately have to live. Excuse the bold / large print - have no idea why, what, nor where. ( Old man problems )

Man stfu ain’t nobody reading that nonsense. Just take your loss to my directional using old head [censored] and move on lmao
I use Outfield view and meter pitching. It’s what works best for me. I’m 23-3 on ranked online games (not DD) and on an 18 game W streak.

I will say a lot of people seem to be very beginner level but hey, id like to think my pitching is pretty lights out. I use whatever the default camera is for pitching and pinpoint. Pinpoint is a very nice touch, i enjoy it. Haha yeah definitely have run into a lot of newbs so far this year but I’ve been playing for 5+ years now so I’m consistently good. I also only play with the Phillies who aren’t a top team so my rankings jump a little faster due to XP. My big thing is taking balls. Everyone wants to throw across the plate instead of strikes. Be patient and wait for them to get frustrated and start to throw strikes lol Literally no one good plays online rated, just saying. That’s just a dumb statement to make. Plenty of good players do. Just because we choose not to blow our money for packs or play 10 hours a day to stay competitive in DD doesn’t mean we aren’t good. I only play online ranked because I choose to only play with the Phillies. I do the same in Madden with the Eagles and Flyers in NHL. Don’t be a try hard. Plus you’d probably get whooped by the top 10% of online ranked. Last season when I played online ranked using exclusively the Mets, I stopped after I was 26-0. Literally no one good plays it. Btw, I spend no money on packs, and I get home from work at 6pm. ~3 a day if I’m lucky? Online ranked is cool until you realize how much better the other game modes are.

Online ranked is cool until you realize how much better the other game modes are.
26-0 is nothing though, I’m 23-3 in the first 4 days of play. If you actually climb the leaderboards and get inside the top 100 you’ll get matched up with better competition maybe you wouldn’t think it’s so easy. Obviously people have their own “favorite” game modes and that’s fine, but to say anyone who’s good doesn’t play online ranked is still a dope comment. I don’t care to build some fantasy team or collect cards by doing challenges. I like playing head to head with my favorite team and the current mlb rosters. Doesn’t mean I’m not good because of that.
Meter is just what I’m used to. It also depends on the pitchers you’re using. I only play with the Phillies so over the years I just got use to the pitchers and their speeds on the meter. It’s all what YOU like. I hated pulse and pinpoint seems okay but I’ll just stick to what gives me W’s lol
I just linked my account, I’m 23-3 was ranked inside the top 100. My games are still showing in Game History and on here for my 2021 stats it shows my correct record however when I check the leaderboard it’s not saying anything just blank.
@ewogimia365_psn said in Did the leaderboard reset ?:
Hey guys I go thru this every year they reset the records on the leaderboard somehow. But eventually they come back. It's upsetting tho I mean I'm 61-0 but if it's like last year you win 1 game your rating is back to where it was and eventually your record will be fixed.. or least has been in the past just give it some time and grind those Ws you'll record will be back.
I always see you at the top every year lol how do you get so many games in per day?
Now stop crying about roster updates
New roster is live
@john3221 said in Online Ranked Challenge Failed Server Error:
Can we choose a created stadium in online rated? They all locked for some reason.
I don’t believe so. Probably because online games you can get matched up with players who don’t have next gen counsels and can’t access the create stadiums so they lock it.

Now I’m Ranked #45 with a 52-7 record (all with the Phillies). Just beat the #5 ranked DeathRage695268 3-1 in 9 innings lol
Lest we not forget…it’s still just a VIDEO GAME.
Just because it’s perfect perfect doesn’t mean it’s a guaranteed hit lol do you watch regular baseball at all? There’s a reason a .300 average is considered “great” lol

What this comes down to is people getting angry because they are losing/have lost when they feel they should win because of how their opponent plays.

So I find it pretty rich to have a gamer come on a baseball video game forum and tell people how they should play and how one way of playing shouldn't be allowed in competition. When fact is that their preferred way of hitting (zone hitting) doesn't accurately simulate hitting a baseball either. So quit your complaining. When the servers are back-up, login, and do what you do: Stair down Rizzo's crotch from your Strike Zone Camera and act like you're amazing because you're moving a curser around a square. FYI - Before you start laying claim that I use directional, I am a zone hitter. I find the arrogance of PCI users hilarious. Get over yourselves. Your comparisons are ridiculous haha Directional is cpu controlled aiming.. In madden itd be like lettung the cpu throw for you....run for you etc. All you do is snap. Itd be like an online shooter and using aimbot and auto aim. You do still know you have to be accurate in your swing and direction of the bat to be successful right? You can still swing and miss at a ball down the plate if you are early or late and you can still miss a ball if your directional swing is up and in but the ball is down and away. You sound like a dope man. You have no idea how directional works and been using it for 3+ years? Hahaha Poor wooderboy relies on directional to compete cuz he cant follow the ball w the pci.

Secondly, you have not made a comment yet about directional hitting that has not been belittling or demeaning to those who use it. You are building yourself up by tearing others down. Decidedly not humble. By the way, there are folks over at the Operation Sports forums who will insinuate you are a child and not a true fan because you play DD and not Franchise. It is all a matter of perspective and of course and neither you or they are right. No belittling. Just FACTS.

"A chess board has no marbles" is a false equivalent. If people were trying to pitch footballs or hit a pitch with a hockey stick, your wonderful quote would fit. What this comes down to is people getting angry because they are losing/have lost when they feel they should win because of how their opponent plays.
I do not hear anyone complaining that throwing the ball 40 times "isn't football" or that shooting 3s isn't basketball. So I find it pretty rich to have a gamer come on a baseball video game forum and tell people how they should play and how one way of playing shouldn't be allowed in competition. When fact is that their preferred way of hitting (zone hitting) doesn't accurately simulate hitting a baseball either.
So quit your complaining. When the servers are back-up, login, and do what you do: Stair down Rizzo's crotch from your Strike Zone Camera and act like you're amazing because you're moving a curser around a square.
FYI - Before you start laying claim that I use directional, I am a zone hitter. I find the arrogance of PCI users hilarious. Get over yourselves.
Your comparisons are ridiculous haha
Directional is cpu controlled aiming..
In madden itd be like lettung the cpu throw for you....run for you etc. All you do is snap.
Itd be like an online shooter and using aimbot and auto aim.
You do still know you have to be accurate in your swing and direction of the bat to be successful right? You can still swing and miss at a ball down the plate if you are early or late and you can still miss a ball if your directional swing is up and in but the ball is down and away. You sound like a dope man.
You have no idea how directional works and been using it for 3+ years? Hahaha
Poor wooderboy relies on directional to compete cuz he cant follow the ball w the pci.
Feel free to add me and I’ll show you just how well I know it donut boy

W zone you can have perfect timing and miss.....thatd never happen w directional. So you don’t play with directional yet you’re trying to tell someone who’s only used directional for the last 3+ years how it works lmaoooo you’re a bleeping donut bro. You’re the biggest tool bag on this forum and that says a lot. Donut?? Hahah Listen. One of the lead developers said the cpu aims.... so yes letting the cpu aim for you is easier than actually having to put the pci on the ball. Directional is the easier of the two esp on any level below hof. Maybe change the difficulty to hof for all of ranked seasons instead of progressing as you go. Oh so youve never tried zone or you suck at it? Get gud at zone...isnt that answer?? Youve just nominated yourself as the biggest tool bag. Im not telling you how it works..im telling you how SDS says it works....so youre saying the developers are wrong? Hahahahahaha Take your L
