Guess I should've completed this last night.

No way I'm paying almost double for the higher end cards.

Hopefully they drop some packs before they reveal the next big L&FB Collection.

@VioletNine9_XBL said in Why am I matching with opponents 3,000 miles away?:

@DemIsE4_XBL I have noticed the further away someone is the more late and early swings they hit for HRs. Like how? I’m late or early I’m swinging through the pitch 99% of the time.

If they're getting hits because they're further away from you; why aren't you getting the same hits, as you're the same distance from them?

@Sarge1387_PSN said in SDS: Can someone please answer a serious question about a game breaking "glitch"?:

Yeah that timer glitch is annoying AF, it shouldn't be re-loading and it is. This was something SDS advertised they had corrected on release too.

Looks like I missed that update.

The hitting is a major issue with the game and everyone knows it. I don’t understand all the white knights who year after year it’s the same people defend this dribble.

Who is being a white knight? Am I?

I have stated numerous times that the hitting feels unrewarding.

Am I being a white knight because I don't take someone's claim that the overwhelming majority of their perfect/perfects are outs at face value? I have never once, that I can remember, defended the hitting in this year's game. I question launch angles and exit velocities of my swings quite often.

Am I supposed to believe them and just assume that SDS is doctoring every person's game history to show perfect/perfects in a better light?

I am all for questioning the hitting system. I just don't believe that posting what seems to be exaggerated numbers is useful. Maybe the venting helps the user who is doing the venting but I don't think it is useful in the long run.

Haven't you noticed that if you don't agree with someone, especially on this forum, that's complaining about the game; they'll call you a white knight or a simp for SDS.

Its supposed to be construed as an insult. But unless they're actually saying it to your face, not miles and miles away behind a keyboard, it just comes off as how childish they can be.

how can you tell where people are?

Its called 'making an assumption'.

@EL1TEx7_XBL said in MLB bs:

This game is completely and utterly [censored]. Whatever they did to the stadiums like laughing mountain park sucks. They should’ve have never made stadium elevation lower. The balls don’t fly like last year and it’s not fun at all. It [censored] sucks to hit the ball so [censored] hard and not getting anything from it. Perfect perfects are always lineouts and when I hit the ball over 100 not being a perfect perfect it always find a glove because of there being no top spin. And it feels like a different game this year made my a sad broken company. It’s just getting ridiculous. I can’t have fun on the game, the only reason I have it is because my friend wants to play it with me otherwise I wouldn’t be wasting 100 GB of storage.

If you weren't playing; we wouldn't be able to enjoy these wonderful walls of text.

@x-814-x-MAFIA-x_PSN wow that was an easy fix. Stick to subject dork.

I proved my point.

@SDS_JoeK_PSN

How come EVERYTIME I play someone in an online game (BR or Event); they're Pause Timer NEVER depletes.

Just lost a game, I should've won TWICE because my opponent's pause timer hit "0" TWICE.

Yet I never had the opportunity to foreit their game because once it popped back up to 14 secs and then the second time the hit "0" it popped back up to 1:45 secs.

Yet, when mine hit "0"; I lost the game.

Can we, at least, get an acknowledgement that you are aware of this issue and a potential idea of if it will ever be addressed and fixed in an upcoming update?

@Dinger_Dan19_PSN said in Plz fix the gameplay:

@x-814-x-MAFIA-x_PSN what? So again a 7/23 hit ratio on perf/perfs is good for you? DD is on competitive mode. What they said they designed it for was to add a skill gap. So when I play better hitting and pitching wise, but lose to duck farts and lineouts, does that sound like a good competitive game? I’m not asking for homers, I want my hits that’s all. And I want when I get my opponent to chase to be rewarded with an out in some fashion. That’s not a tough ask little guy.

What do you know. Another person who turns to insults; when someone disagrees with what they post.

Its like clock work.

@SpawnOfDitka_XBL said in Plz fix the gameplay:

@x-814-x-MAFIA-x_PSN oh stop it! There is a hitting engine problem this year. Everyone is saying the same thing. Go away. Brown knose. And its also depends on who you are playing and where. Because they cant fix the server issues still in 2025. If you are playing someone across the country and they get the connection you are screwed.

Insults stick better when you actually know the correct way to spell the word 'nose'.

Why don't people understand that just because you get a Perfect/Perfect; it doesn't mean it will always be a hit.

Maybe the pitcher threw the ball in the exact spot he wanted to throw it. Maybe the batter is a Contact Hitter. Maybe the fielder has Diamond fielding.

Alot of things factor into how a ball is hit and where it goes after it is hit.

I think SDS needs to get rid of the Perfect/Perfect feedback.

It causes more trouble than it's worth.

@Alimathus_PSN said in Stuck in All Star:

You need to play 1 game for your restarted rating to place you in a division. Otherwise you end up in the lowest bracket for WC.

Only problem with that is once WC starts; you can't play a reg ranked game.

@victoryphoenix_PSN said in Bleacher Report Idea:

Instead of a card that gives us a card in a pack that we already have that's only worth 3000 stubs, just give us like 75,000 stubs in a pack.

Huh?

What is 'quited'?

@dap1234567890_PSN said in Stuck in All Star:

So...are you saying you screwed yourself over in this Weekend Classic because you didn't play RS earlier like you should have to move into a higher bracket? I guess I'm just not seeing the point of your post.

People that normally play on HOF are used to the faster pitch speeds.

Playing on All-Star for them is equivalent to Aaron Judge going from playing for the Yankees to playing Wiffle Ball at a picnic.

@Squid_Adams_PSN until you know the percentages of who plays with which settings; it would be hard on the player, and SDS, if they made each mode of play have different settings.

IE: SDS would have to spend more to pay coders to develop these settings in each mode of H2H. And if it's only a small percentage that plays a certain way; then it wouldn't be financially reasonable for them to spend that money.

IE: if, say, only 5 % of the current player base plays with the settings that you want utilized; then that means they'll only pull 5% of the available players online, at that given time, thus making match making take longer.

Then you could have these 5% of players complaining that they can't find a matchup.

I still don't understand how you think a certain camera view for batting/pitching and a certain hitting/pitching interface gives someone an advantage?

If it gave players and advantage; EVERYONE would use those settings/interfaces.

People need to stop worrying about how others play the game and start concentrating on having fun.

If someone is out hitting/pitching you; maybe you're just in a slump.

If it's happening every game, then no offense meant, this game isn't for you.

@GradektheBard_PSN said in Need More and Easier TA XP:

I’d propose a new mission for each team that gives 100,000 TA progress for 500pxp. Otherwise, I feel the TA grind may actually cost them goodwill and possible retention of new players.

As someone who only has one Team affinity done I am not so sure I agree.

First, that already did that essentially with the Color Storm Drop. Do that first, use that card and get 150K TA progress for only 500 PXP. That more than halfway to the all star card.

I assume we will see something similar when and if they ever get around to the next TA mini program.

The problem with a catch-up mechanic for those who start late, or like me are just too lazy, is that it completely invalidates the effort it took other players to reach that point.

That said, the fact that we have only had the one extra TA mini program and the next one probably won't probably drop until August or Sept is weak.

This.

@GradektheBard_PSN

Im just going to say this: When they introduced the Mission where you could use the Color Storm player, 500 PXP, to get 150,000 credit towards the main TA path, for that player's team, did you forget about the people that came on here complaining, that already were to the #1 fan icimon, that they just did all that grinding for nothing?

@jake93436_PSN said in Missing cards:

So I literally just got to a marketplace. I redeemed the Pete Crow Armstrong All-Star card for stubs I won throughout the game but he is the words we found in my diamond dynasty team. My stubs are gone. There's no card. What do I do?

Huh?

CC or Wagner. Already had 2 hitters. Time for a SP or RP.

@Weshill627_PSN said in Please give us a break on these collections!!:

@sbchamps17_NSW When did I say I wanted everything handed to me? I have completed the entire game up to this point & have 202k. The fact i need to do DQ 5+ more times at least to make sure I have enough stubs to complete collections sucks. Its dumb most of the All-Star collection were chase packs. Since all I do is complain, where can I earn a chase pack?? You cant.

I've completed the LS Collection. I've completed Rolens. Im 4 vouchers from Ted. I'm 4-5 cards from AS Judge. I'm 3 cards from Holliday. I'm not worried about HD Cal because I value defense more in a catcher and am happy with whom I'm using now.

I've done all this (NMS) without flipping and only play DQ 1-2 times per map.

And I still have most of the MS to do. And about 5 - 7 Conquest Maps to do.

You don't HAVE to complete collections Day, or Week, 1.
