@tmoneymill_psn said in Why directional is trash for online...:
Because they reward xp for hits and hrs etc...when it takes 0 skill to hit with this bullsh*t online and rewards garbage user play. Which then gives them more xp to be more garbage online. Hits where pci doesnt even reach..hrs off balls in dirt...its a freaking joke. Turn off that for online for 1000th time and for 4yrs running. Its a joke. This isnt rbi baseball.
Switching to directional online later today. Thanks for the tip
I wonder if your friend has noticed with the addition of prestige players how many guys dashboard so it slows progression? Doesn't matter to me as this is my last ride on mlb but stat grinds that could be achieved on and offline would have helped.

Doesn’t appear any program stars go towards the 7th inning.
Who'd want stars when you can get points in a program you finished already?
at least they got around to fixing the location of the all star game in patch 4. Important stuff
Off recent topic a bit but why have we been forced to go back to doubles and triples for missions? If I hit a HR I'm pen
alized again. Why not stick with xbh?
You will hear from them soon as the 2nd inning "live content" is promoted. New cards, packs, programs, moments and maps. No mention of issues or problems connecting with or tracking progress on said "live content" will be made however.
Not quick selling cards you have locked I'm okay with.....being unable to exchange worthless commons for team affinity is a bonehead move.
@A_PerfectGame said in Will the coronavirus effect content releases and overall supportof the game?:
Can we not talk about the corona virus on these threads. It’s already a way over abused topic everywhere. We get it there’s a a new virus. Everything closing is absurd. They didn’t do this for SARS, Ebola, H1n1 or any of the other MORE DEADLY virus’ they didn’t have medicine for. This is a concern but it’s blown way out of proportion because of an incompetent media and unintelligent masses.
One must understand that those more deadly contagions happened at a time when those in charge of propaganzing things like this were far less inclined to use them.
And it is not a new virus and yes it is way out of proportion. Sad no doubt but way out of proportion the coverage.

I've seen more then one thread about people complaining they are banned, SDS does "do something", but there will always be more immature people, no matter how many get banned
Sds banes people on this site for breaking the terms of service. They are sensitive and if you write anything about how bad they are or attack someone on this site they will ban you. But you can have the confederate flag as your logo and have the most racists name imaginable and they will do nothing to fix it
Not to mention all the sickle and hammer [censored]. Course that type of totalitarian regime is in vogue now
@Catman9186 said in Kerry Wood done in <2hrs...now what??:
Without real baseball going on, SDS is going to have to do a better job coming up with more content to keep us busy. More moments, missions, this day in history e.t.c.
The latest player program Kerry Wood took less than 2hrs... 6 missions or so and then a 9 inning game vs the Cubs.
Pick up the pace SDS. We're going to need more substance without real life baseball.
I for one would much rather have programs to work and grind for cards as opposed to putting two new cards a week in packs. I guess I'd like to play for cards rather than buy them.
I agree this is easy but many do not like these and making the player pay stubs to play any segment of a program is lame.

This isn't ignorance class either. This is where you show what you've learned in English class. Or not.

@scottd_3ds_psn said in Wonder why people complain?:
If you enjoy baseball, and this is an amazingly brilliant animated simulation, then you turn on the game expecting to have fun. At least an enjoyable experience. But more times than not, the game leaves you frustrated, puzzled, bored and sometimes even angry. So you turn it off. But you love baseball, so you turn it back on, hoping to have fun. It is a game, right? Games should be fun. Imo, the game needs drastic changes to appeal to the majority of the ones who spent money on it. Maybe SDS could start by listening to the ones playing the game. And their complaints.
Unfortunately they don’t care bro. Not unless someone else drops a decent baseball game, we will always get this copy and paste mess every year. We can either stop buying it or deal with it unfortunately
They'd care if a significant amount of us could just say no thanks for one year.
And people post months after a thread dies most likely not reading what has come before and share their ignorance. Folks that think directional is easier need to show me one of the top guys winning with it on YouTube vs another top guy.

@x-supersko-x_xbl said in This game is absolutely boring and unrewarding right now.:
I play the online modes once in a while (Events and BR) but I have a career job and just don’t have the time to invest into ranked seasons. That means I play the single player modes the majority of the time - including RTTS.
As of right now, not including a few of the gold and diamond programs in RTTS, I’ve already completed everything available for the offline modes. The game is so boring right now that I’ve even completed every Conquest map.
To make matters worse, the game doesn’t feel rewarding. Out of the 37 Live Series diamond players available at the moment, I have exactly 4 of them — and 1 card was purchased on the marketplace. Given that I’ve completed all of the “Other Programs” (except Stages 2 and 3 of the April Series, of course), all of the Showdowns, the Conquest maps and 3 full Mini Seasons, you can imagine how many packs I’ve opened along the way. I’ve even played the Mystery Conquest map about 15-20 extra times because it’s a quick and easy way to get 5 The Show packs for free.
Maybe I’m wrong but I don’t remember the game being so boring and unrewarding when The Show 21 was released. I know it’s early but something needs to change. The odds say we have a 1 in 50 pack chance to get a diamond player but that’s a load of bullsh*t! On one occasion, I opened 108 packs before I pulled a diamond player and I’m currently on 86 packs without a diamond pull. On top of that, out of all the Ballin’ is a Habit packs I’ve opened - I’m still sitting at 1 diamond player from those packs and 0 diamond pulls from Headliners packs.
When you combine all of this with the many lazy-assed copied and pasted card images from The Show 21, I’m really disappointed in the replayability and the lack of effort put into the game.
At the very least, they could give offline players a replayable Showdown like they finally added last year so we can earn cards for winning and sell them for stubs on the marketplace.
Sorry for the length … I don’t comment very often but wanted to vent a bit.
You do know that it's a 1 in 50 chance that a single pack can have a Diamond in it?
It's not that 1 in every 50 packs should have a Diamond.
If you check the odds on a single The Show pack; it reads 1:50.
So, for every pack you open, you have a 1:50 chance that one of those 5 cards will be a Diamond.
Well then my 1 in 50 is by far the worst it has ever been this year.

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.
And yet there are steamers currently in games
So everytime I attempt to load a game, it goes through the matchmaking process, finds an opponent then fails to load. My opponents rating bar minimum and maximum will both drop to zero, sit there for roughly 45 seconds, and then I get the lost connection with opponent error.
Multiple people having the same issue. Rebooted everything Multiple times. PS5 with cross play on for whatever that's worth.
I'm STILL having this issue
Still can't play events that I could before the latest"fix"
The fix has broken event match making in case anyone the works for SDS cares
