@aam34_psn said in Has SDS every heard of a player named Rafael Devers?!:
Cuz it [censored] sure isn't reflecting in his stats. Judge gets a +3 and my guy Raffy big scoops isn't even a 84. 92 power is disrespectful. J.D gets a +1 LMAO!!! Pretty disappointing update if your a sox fan. Machado +1, Trout -1 WTF is going on here?!
But Jazz Chisholm goes diamond because sds has a [censored] for the dude

It’s clear SDS literally has zero clue what they are doing. This may be the beginning of the end for this company, they broke a game that didn’t need fixed.
This literally has nothing to do with the post. This bashing will never get nothing done.
Oh you just now know how things work do you? BTW yes it had everything to do with your post. I will say what I want whenever I want.
You sound like a toddler.
But the dude will still buy the game, still pay for stubs, then come here and complain like a kid who didn't get what he wanted. Sds feeds off these kids
@evylshaun_psn said in This mornings update causes game crashes when loading any dd game mode.:
Sds literally broke the game. No one can get an online game going. No acknowledgment thus far from sds, which obviously means no timeframe on a fix.
Heads up.
Game is a mess. Thought they fixed the r2 mess last update. Still present. Now the games freezes on the pitcher selection menu for dd games. Lol. What a joke
@raesone_psn said in My annual assessment of this game:
So I've been playing offline since release, grinding all the programs and what not. So during that time I always keep my opinion to myself, because we all know offline usually plays fine and you don't really run into the issues that could spoil your experience.
Today I've been playing the event all day long. And it started out okay I guess, some slugfests here and there and just getting my feet wet. Nothing out of the ordinary. But the more I played, the more recurring themes I encountered.
First and foremost, the amount of bloopies/flukies or whatever you wanna call them are simply ridiculous. I understand that it is a part of baseball and it is totally fine if they happen occasionally. But the volume of bad swings that get rewarded are just out of hand at this point. We all like hit variety and we all want contact hitters to be usable, but not if this is the trade off. And that's what I feel is happening here, these hits are a thing because of the complaints regarding lack of hit variety in the past in my opinion.
What I also noticed is that the game, once again, forces my perfectly executed pitches into the strike zone. This was a thing in 18 and it feels the exact same to me in that sense. I have given up staggering amounts of homeruns on offspeed pitches that I spotted almost in the dirt and executed perfectly, yet somehow ended up in the bottom of the strike zone. Why are perfectly executed pitches being punished? What's the point of mastering PPP, which was introduced to widen the skill gap mind you, if you're gonna reduce that skill gap once more by adding randomness to the pitching outcome?
Then I've noticed that contact hitting is broken. Again. Try it for yourself to have a laugh. I played 5 games in a row swinging with the contact button exclusively and I hit 430ft homeruns and got 110+ mph exit velocities all the same. We can no longer see our opponent's feedback, but I wouldn't be surprised if many of the players in this community do the exact same thing. Since it widens the timing windows, allows for more solid contact and still gives you the same exit velocities.. why would you ever normal swing or even power swing?
Then there is the overall performance of the game in terms of fluidity and choppiness. I play on PS5 on performance mode and I played in a handful of created stadiums and major league parks that once again induce frame drops and choppiness all around. As if I'm playing on my vanilla PS4 all over again. Try playing an online game at Target Field and you'll see what I mean.
Another thing that seriously irritated me is the amount of weak flyballs and even pop ups on swings where the ball is entirely in my buckshot, albeit in the top part of it. But that's what the game wants us to do, no? Lift the ball with power hitters? So that's what I'm aiming for and I get okay hits for weak pop ups. Again, this reminded me of MLBTS 18.
Last but not least (for now) is the amount of freeze offs STILL HAPPENING. Like how on earth can you not find the issues to this problem for all these years? I can't help but think that these people just don't care or have given up on this problem like "it's part of the game, get used to it". That's unacceptable and laughable in a sense.
I have tried my hardest to find some good things to say as well. I guess I do like the sound off the bat, especially during a perfect/perfect. I also like the fact that fielders have more urgency and you're able to gun a lot more people now with good throwing input. But that's about it.
I'm sorry, but the game is just not very good. Again. I hate that it gives me MLBTS 18 vibes, but that's really what it does. Hopefully the upcoming gameplay patch that has been confirmed will fix many of these issues. If not, I probably won't play very long.
Edit:
One thing I forgot to mention, the PCI anchor. This feature was brought because people wanted to be able to have a sensitivity slider for the PCI. This is not that! The feature is terrible because it is basically guess pitch lite. People can just sit in a certain part of the zone and take away a whole part of the plate. I noticed that some people do this and don't swing until the ball comes into that part of the zone. I don't see how this has anything to do with skill and I think it's a terrible feature that should be removed asap or should be barred from online play.
I honestly can't see how anyone can be enjoying online play in this game. It rewards bad players( and I'm not great, but I'm routinely a cs player) the foul ball bail outs, followed by the perfect pitch that just gravitates to the middle of the plate. Its ridiculous
The foul balls on pitches out of the zone are out of control. I thought it was bad last year.
Anyone having an issue with the r2 icon being stuck on the screen?
I haven't really experienced that very much but this game is tailored to the content creators who make video after video complaining when they make contact that it's not a homerun

So many people complaining on day 1…give it a chance!
Today's youth. Need immediate satisfaction
Lol are you serious? We paid $40 extra to play the game early
The game is unplayable- did you ever spend money on something(food clothes etc) and the product was faulty- were you’re just ok with it?
This has nothing to do with immediate gratification
I've never had anyone force me to spend money if that's what you're getting at.
You’re not getting it- no one is forced to spend
SDs says “hey guys we are offering 4 days early access of game play for an extra $40”
Those of us that are able to spend it and wanted early access paid the extra $40- and the game is unplayable
Where I come from- the adult world- that is paying for services that have not been delivered…
How you got “being forced to spend money” from that is beyond me

You sound like you were forced to buy it. The game is less than 24 hours old and you're crying about it. And you're an adult? Lol. Ok
No you sound like a weirdo that is ok with paying money for items that don’t work- idk what adult world you live in but the one that I live in most adults expect to get what they paid for
But your comparison of “being forced to pay” in response to what I said let’s me know you’re not that intelligent so I don’t expect you to understand
You must be new here son

This is super lame, SDS.
The guy was a Gold caliber player on his best day.
I would rather no content than cut and paste filler content.What are your career major league baseball stats? Just curious.
That's all you got, friend?
We're debating the merits of Griffey Sr and your contribution to the discussion is what were my MLB stats?Christopher Hitchens you are not.
Yep. Lol. You're sitting here saying a mlb player is not worthy of a sig card or whatever you're argument is. So, I'm asking you what your mlb stats were? Could you do better? Your argument is you diminishing a quality major league baseball players stats. You have zero idea what it takes to play at that level, you most likley played jv baseball for your high school and that was the end of your career. Sitting on here acting like Griffey sr did nothing in his career. Sit down son

Had 2 dailies, one was pitch a complete game the other was pitch complete game with a gold. The only option is RS obviously. Loaded up with my gold pitcher, suffered through the entire game, pitched 9 innings, pinch hit for the pitcher bottom of the 9th (9innings pitched) and got no credit for either mission. To top it off I didn't get my first hit against verlander until the last out in bottom of 9th lol.
Sds doesn't even know what constitutes as a check swing , no less a complete game
Check swings? You can thank this very same community's bitching and moaning for that!
Won't argue that

@thierry007007 said in Are people still enjoying the game ?:
Since the last PCI update, the game is truly a dice roll. Even most MLB the show youtubers are frustrated with the current state of the game. Opinions ?
I suppose if you don't mind random results. If you're ok with squaring balls up and not getting the same results as your opponent who is just flailing away until the game decides its time to grove them one magically over the middle for a homerun. Not making light at your post at all, as I agree with the random dice roll analogy
