I'm new and 52-64 on DD....I'm sick and tired of the 1-0 games . I pitch elite, but I can't effing hit for shiate....it seems like the last few days I'm hitting the ball everywhere, right on the nose and I'm grounding out , fly out, line out etc...meanwhile the opponent can't hit the side of a barn with a giant tennis racket and he swings at everything. For 1 fricking contact he hits a bomb....I strike these [censored] wipes put 17 to 20 times a dam game....

I'm sick and tired of effing can't score a dam run...if I would score 5 a game I'd be 90-26...seriously ,all you haters can suck a big a #$%^ but I'm just done playing this game. Hitting isn't coming around. I'm Uninstalling the game. I have no clue how to get better at the plate....it would be cool if 2 players could be on a team, one hit and one defense...screw hitting

I was up 8 to 5 in bottom of the 9th with 1 out and nobody on. His next 4 of 5 at bats were bombs and perfect cracks in spots he COULDNT touch me before hand and ended the game beating me 10 to 8. He even hit one out that was a ball almost in the dirt.This game blows because sds doesn't do squat to stop it. Also, there are nothing but modders playing events and it's almost impossible to get wins against them. Sad bro.

I am horribly doing bad this year. I can't seem to find the right camera and sliders and 100mph fbs are to much to adjust too...

great answer!!! thanks

For the last 8 straight games I've hit perfectly and good hitting and the ball is dead. It travels right to the opponent no matter where. This is ridiculous. There is something wrong with the GAME,. I haven't hit a hr in 8 games and I have 100 hrs in online rated....wth is going on. There is something not correct since update. This game has taken a turn for the worst. No wonder so many people quit playing this bs game.

I'm not playing a 7 year veteran when I just was able to get game 2 months ago...this is why I dont not play crossplay. In cod I do play crossplay because I've played cod for 12 years

He couldnt hit worth a darn in first inning. I crack out 3 runs in bottom of first then in top of 2nd he cracks off 7 runs without me coming close to recording and out. There are so many cheaters on this game. There are thousand upon thousands of modded controllers that moved right over from fps games to mlb21 when it came over to Xbox. I know the websites , I guess I need one too. This has taken the fun out of the game. Sad sad

Needed 3 more 42 series players to get the 99 Jackie. I needed hank, babe and cal Jr. All around 40k stubbs. So I'm grinding and gonna get the most expensive and work down. The card somehow raises to 95k stubbs, wtf? So being a rookie I use all my stubbs I grinded for to get him, the next morning he is at 38k stubbs again. I could not believe a dam VIDEO game would do this. This is no different than video poker gambling or something. Why did this happen?

@pat_sds_psn said in wont allow me to access app:

Hi! Sorry to hear you're having issues. Which version of the app are you on?

It works now. Thanks

i tried to tell others this last week and i was trolled because of it. the cronus zen is a hardware attachment that goes on your controller and it modifies the games control on pitches so that you can pin point an exact pitch on ALL pitches with no vertical or horizontal recoil or drop. it also has a modification on hitting called "feather batting" where your contact is extended outside the zone to cover a larger batting area as if the zone is bigger than an 18 inch wide plate.....im for sure ran into on of 2 these guys about 10 days ago. their hitting was unreal and their pitching was the best ive seen in 39 games ive played. i knew he was cheating when i actually hit the ball, he COULD NOT field properly, ran straight at balls that were hit and misjudged how to suicide catch ground balls in outfield as he would run by the ball and not pick it up, he would throw balls to wrong base, his catcher was way late on throw downs....he only relied on his abilities thru his modded controller using the zen program which does NOT cover defense only pitching and hitting. say what you will, i know this is true. also in COD these programs are a dime a dozen and are frequently used hence the jumping bean player who headshots you hip firing around the corner. lol

Everybody mad cause they got caught cheating. Lol

Everybody mad cause they got caught cheating lol

I sold him and was happy doing it. His vision is terrible. I get more production from Kenny Lofton!

No I'm done with this bs game. Game is not sound baseball. It can be done better

@h-town713-x1hqx_xbl said in Why am I so terrible at this game? Any tips please?:

This is my 1st MLB game and I don’t know much about baseball but been playing the show for about a month now and my goodness am I terrible. Over 50 online games and I’m getting less than 1 run a game. I”d say my team BA is less than .130 over all. I suck so bad and it’s frustrating cause I’m really enjoying playing the cpu where I at least have a decent chance but I wanna play H2H and play other people. It’s just frustrating as hell knowing I’m about to hit less than .13 and have my opponent with 18+ strike outs against me.

I’m a madden player and I win close to 90% of my games H2H. Finished madden 22 with a 1142-137 in H2H. I like being competitive and I’m enjoying every aspect of the game off line but online it’s a terrible experience for me cause I feel helpless. Any suggestions or tips on how I can improve my game? This is beyond frustrating to me at this point lol thanks for any inputs!!

I’m on Xbox current gen if that makes a difference

Your 28-42 in online rated. I looked at your Dynasty games and I went back on around 15 games and you've only lost maybe 2 games. That's not bad considering a first year player esp in DD. My 2nd year and I'm doing much better in online rated but dd I still an losing badly. You'll get better.

@getschwifty867 said in Got a suggestion about balls in the dirt/above your head...SDS please read..:

Lol...WHAT. Also I should be able to smash a homer when I'm down in the 7th lol. The game is massively flawed but come on.

Go watch mlb. Show me evidence of a consistent dirt ball that wasn't accidentally thrown on a plus count or even count with less than 2 strikes.

Balls in the dirt in "any grip" should not be allowed to be used unless you have 0-2,1-2 or 2-2 count on the batter.

Balls pitched above your head should only be allowed when those counts of 0-2 , 1-2 are in play.

These pitches every pitch is ruining the baseball experience on mlb 22....

That's what I kinda thought but wasn't sure. I hate dd... 100mph fbs and 85mph sliders in the dirt. Just shows the player isn't even playing a more real strike zone and using the game's angles to get them a strike. That's the problem about dd... not enough strike zone pitches.

Hahah ikr
