So was in the process of doing the POTM Brian Reynolds challenge ( behind on potm ) anyhow I had to make a trip to the bathroom. Thought I paused the moment before I walked away only to get an achievement notice while on the toilet through my Xbox app. The CPU walked me 4 times and I got the ‘I’m walk-in here’ achievement while on the toilet. Moments are so weird

Edit. Sadly this community has become so toxic and defensive that a person cannot even share something funny without all the fan boys getting defensive and [censored] hurt about it. Settle down clowns , this wasn’t a complaint post. You can stop sending me nasty private messages now.

My kids are in bed , my wife is doing her stuff , it’s dark outside and it’s also 25degrees. Don’t have a dog either. Maybe I’m just bored and decided to type about it on the forum for the game that is semi responsible for my current state of boredom

If course they are. Tons of people got the game for free today. Which means I can’t play the game I payed for.

This take ain’t it, saying they don’t care is like saying EA is a good company. They clearly care, it just isn’t as easy as you think it is to fix server issues. Be patient.

With all due respect, where is your evidence that they clearly care? I'm not seeing it.

I mean, they brought a good baseball game to the console you play on. For free might I add, and you’re still complaining?

Who got a free baseball game? I paid 100 bucks , and game pass isn’t ‘free’ , it’s a paid for service. That’s like saying Netflix content and Hulu content are free. Come on dude , the turds on your nose are embarrassing.

I’ve only played a handful of online PvP games this year. I think I’m unbeaten even. I just don’t enjoy it. Its not the reason I turn it on. I like to play and relax , which I can do 95% of the time in the offline modes.

I wish there were a nice little offline program to use your built up squad on. Rewards wouldn’t have to be equal to online rewards , but it would allow folks an Avenue for 9 inning games with their squads that’ll also lead to something decent after a determined amount of success.

That's why they pushed the start date back a month to accommodate this larger release, but still they fail. At least dont charge for "early access" especially when you can barely play the game. It's a d&ck move on their part

Did any of you consider the fact that they were making the game during a raging PANDEMIC? They studio is already lesser than 2K’s or EA’s and you want to [censored] on them for this? Seriously?

If they were half as good at maintaining their servers as you are at making excuses for them I’d be playing diamond dynasty right now.

The state of this game can be likened to a 90 year old woman driving the wrong way down the interstate at 80mph with two blown rear tires in a rain storm completely oblivious to the world around her.

I think we will see a Freddie Freeman card. Dude raked in July. .400 average so far 4 bombs 3 doubles and has added a whopping 21 points to his average. Only stuck out 8 times in 50 at bats and has also walked 8 times with a OBP of .475 and is slugging over .700. Only has an 87 overall live series. Good candidate for a 94-96 card , not a master card though.

Plenty of adoptable animals near you i’d imagine

Aside from hitting companies straight in their wallet , our only option is to use our voice and our dialogue as a community in an attempt to incite change. If you’re fine with the status quo then so be it. That’s your option. Telling me that I shouldn’t have a voice or an opinion on the matter is plain ignorant.

Everything we do in the game is and has been a [censored] shoot to this point. Save them ... they might disappear , spend them and watch what you’ve spent them on disappear.

Kyle Wright? Bronze card currently. 3-0 this year with a 1.13 ERA. 6 walks and 34ks. Has been the pitcher Atlanta expected to get when they drafted him as a potential ace so many years ago.

I’m guessing they have something planned for a high overall Jackie at some point this year and didn’t want to make us grind for a card that’ll likely not make anyones bench. If you had to actually invest any real time toward the 88 Jackie you’d probably be disappointed anyhow.

Which parks have the largest batters eye? Minor league preferably. Looking for a place I can play my home games in mini seasons and I have a eye surgery coming up , so seeing the ball in some places is super difficult

No they definitely did this. I completed the white Sox the other day to get the Ray Durham , next day Kimbrel was a Dodger and Pollack was missing in the white sox set.

Instead of having balls and strikes 100% come down to umpire behavior, I would like to see a framer quirk added to catchers. Catchers with ‘framer’ will get those borderline calls more often then not , would allow us to maybe sacrifice a huge bat in the lineup for defense and framing like a lot of mlb teams legitimately do. Would also give people a reason to carry a second catcher on their squads for offensive substitution.

@arvcpa_psn said in Next years Game…will we see some changes?:

There's only one issue... Too many birds.

It’s not an issue if they’d just get us the rights for The Big Unit. Problem solved

With the release of Griffey I’ve noticed that a lot of the cards are no longer available to earn , and none are really being sold with some golds even having 25k orders in.

Do you think they’ll release more of these lower collection cards ? Or re-release some of them to make the Griffey Jr more attainable or no?

They released packs leading up to TA5. Both are in the shop at 30k Stubbs per pack. Also several finest cards were awarded for various things in the past few months. Buster Posey player program , several finest flashbacks from inning programs and events. I’d suggest get the freebies , then buy off the market for however many you have left. Packs generally are a loss since at best you can only pull 45k cards by spending 30k

Edit: If you go to the collection screen , and inspect each card and RB all the way on the right it’ll show you the market cost of the cards you’re missing along with how to acquire them

Been grinding TA. Saved packs , opened all packs between 0-50% on every division including 100% in the NL East. Had over 90 BIAH , and over 75 different headliners from the conquest , 9th inning and TA reward line. Not a single diamond in BIAH , and not a single headliner card found.

Anyone else been as unfortunate?

Not that bad of an experience, but I think I’ve pulled 10 diamonds from the headliner packs…..every single one was the jersey.

I recieved several jerseys , a LS Corbin Burns , and Byron Buxton from all those headliners lol. Of the 150 regular show and affinity packs I pulled Devin Williams Nick Anderson. Odds are much lower on those packs but rewarded a couple diamonds at least
