This mode is so rigged its ridiculous. I can't believe the game would force you to win without swinging the bat. Doesn't SDS value our time? All these walks make these Showdowns last an extra 5-10 minutes longer than they should. They should let us grind these on Rookie with unlimited re-tries. That way we could close our eyes and swing the bat and still win instead of closing our eyes, not swing the bat, and still win like we can now.

Exactly!! All these fanboys don’t realize how valuable our time is? How am I supposed to get prestige level 100 if I have to take 100 pitches in showdown because they want to code Hader to throw balls?
It’s a win-win for them. If I chase, I lose. If I take the walks, then I won’t be able to progress as fast in the XP path for those free stubs. Then I gotta pay $200 to get Trout instead of waiting until diamond level 85 to get him for free.
If you can’t see that, you’re a fanboy. Plain and simple
It's hilarious you liked and responded to his post, it's obviously sarcastic.
No, these Showdowns are too hard. I win about 95% percent of them and I'm only a Silver level 35. If SDS was an honest company that didn't rig modes like this they would code it so I would only see meatballs every pitch. That way I could win 100% of the time and be at LEAST one level higher than I am now since I wouldn't be wasting time talking all those walks. This mode is rigged.
I don't know what's more cringe
Him thinking people should be able to make WS playing on Veteran.
Or
Him thinking he "owned" anyone in this thread.
Yikes. Thanks for the laughs though.

You’d think a Cardinals fan would be familiar with and understand shady organizations and cheating . Never forget the Astros were victims before all this went down.
But, back on topic. If you can’t see it’s rigged, then you’re a fanboy. Plain and simple
The reds are dog [censored]
I agree. They're almost as bad as these Showdowns that are rigged to make you win everytime.

It takes what like 3-5 games online? I think you'll survive lol
Using lol to disagree with someone shows emotional immatureity.
Saying that everyone who plays online lives in their mom's basement shows emotional immaturity.
Not being able to spell immaturity shows immaturity.
Hopefully you got that whopping 30 bucks back from Sony after your son downloaded all that DLC. I know times are tough right now.
Lol.
Do you want Trout to cost 500k again? Because this is how you get Trout to cost 500k again. My Career inflated the market big time.
"So glad I didn't purchase this game this year. Looking at all the bad reviews reminds me just of how much I'm not missing. They purposely destroy the game with 3rd to 4th patch every single year. They won't get my coins!"
"So funny at how they did the same exact thing to last year's game 2 weeks after launch. I did not buy this game this year because they do the same thing every year. They start off good, then here come the patches. Too bad they suckered you all in! They won't get my money this year! I will wait until a new developer releases a baseball game sometime in the future. No way I'm letting this company get me out of 3000 dollars in a yr again!"
"So glad I didn't buy the game this year! Same ol [censored] with this company! They always mess the game up 2 weeks after launch. They do it on purpose. Sucks to be you guys. What a waste!"
"Just purchased the game 5 minutes ago and hoping I enjoy it! Even might think about not playing ranked at all. Here goes nothing!"
Ryan is going to have more accounts than Kieran by the end of the year.
Showdown has been the best offline mode SDS has ever added. It's challenging but that's what makes it fun. Yeah, sometimes you get unlucky, it happens. Get em next time. But it's a million times more fun than Conquest or Moments and it's not even close. I really hope they don't change it to cater to the "I want all the rewards but only want to play on Rookie" crowd.

Showdown = easy
You = badDo you beat every showdown every time?
Lost the NL East showdown the very first time I tried it. Maybe one AL East showdown. Didn’t lose any inning showdowns, and haven’t lost any Stage 2 showdowns. And I’ve played at least 50 of them.
So 48/50. That warrants being called easy imo.
You’ve lost a couple of showdowns even though their easy? Interesting.
You consider something hard if you don't beat it 100% of the time? Interesting.
Where did I say that? Or even imply it? He said they were easy, why weren’t they easy when he lost?
96% win percentage seems pretty easy to me. Can't win them all
Why not if it’s easy? What’s happening during that 4%?
So it's only easy if you beat it 100% of the time. Got it. Explains your posts a lot
You didn’t answer my question.
Even if you're good, sometimes you get unlucky. It happens.
If you're not good, you can make 50 accounts and complain on TSN that they're too hard. Like you
I’ll remind you of your luck comment next time you tell someone to “git gud”.
Show me where I said showdown was too hard.
Yeah, I'm gonna pass on digging through the post history on your dozens of accounts lol.
Just one piece of advice though, if you need to beat something 100% of the time for you to consider it fair, you'll never improve at this game. Focus more on what you can do better and less on how the game is out to get you. Good luck, Ryan. You'll get it someday. Keep trying.

@dcordash1 said in The psychology of Showdown:
There is no way to logically compare MLB The Show to a Boss challenge in most other games. In all the games I've played and started way back with the original Doom and Wolfenstein.
The difference? in all the other games the "Boss" exhibits the same patterns and traits and the more observant and discerning a player is the quicker they can defeat the "Boss". In MLB the Show..you're fighting an AI that just goes off the rails and refuses to be beat at times. There really is no pattern.
Without a consistent pattern...folks are gonna struggle and complain. Which they should. No one wants to waste an hour getting to a final challenge and always lose because winning is not based on skill or pattern recognition..it's based on an AI randomization algorithm.

You have a good day to Ryan.
TBH I just think that idea goes against what Showdown is supposed to be, it's supposed to be a offline BR type mode. I'd rather them bring back something like SS moments of last year where you used your team.
One successful Showdown is worth 20 TA points. Which is a lower number than the amount of accounts Ryan has created to complain about Showdowns
