@skepple15 if some is spamming KB every pitch then yeah their cheesing, if I’m using my whole pitch inventory and am EFFECTIVE then theres a skill gap. All the hate for Knucklers since the Dickey days of 13 continues haha

I completely disagree with this. It is actually opposite. IRL KB pitchers dont throw any other pitch. very seldom will they sneak in a FB or another pitch. The reason you are mixing other pitches in is so your opponent cannot time the KB, because you know it will get crushed. That is even more cheesy.

Just enable auto aim and track pitch in settings. Its amazing.

Look just NW of Rhodes in between the islands and mainland. Or just East of Blackwater.

It is buttmuncher proof.

he got suspended for domestic violence and it's a bad look to still have him in the game.

We would be missing a lot of top tier players if that was the case.

Yay! Bad hitters hitting foul balls for days are probably coming back. All the other stuff looks pretty good and hopefully works.

Its the "athlete" part that is laughable. Fix that to "professional esports player" or anything thing else that is inline with sitting in a chair and pushing buttons on a gamepad. Bowlers are 10 times the "athletes".

Yeah it is best to keep as is. Then just get used to it. If they keep changing it that makes it worse. Last year everyone freaked out when they hit HoF level. But by summer most were use to it.

Glad I didnt jump in.

@onnagood1 said in Do you think next years game?:

poor AI baserunning, inability to have sense of urgency to get rid of the ball on close plays, but instead player will hold onto the ball before getting rid of it, inability to tag runners out at times, etc., etc.,

All of this stuff was exponentially worse in 18 than 19.

I have no ill feelings towards the guy, but it’s hilarious to watch him flinch when he hits the ball.

Hey, I do that too.

I’d be

I had a guy lay down a bunt to break up my perfect game in the 9th. I was he was safe bcuz of the infield shift. Such a a$$hole

Meh, Ill say you deserve it because you use the stupid default auto shift. I thought everyone turned that mess off?

MLB fielders dont miss, picking up the baseball, half the time when charging a roller and it is going 17 mph like on the game either. And relief pitchers dont all drop there gloves as they get to the mound.

Ping is more important then speed. You can have gig speed and trash ping and be worse off then the guy with 20mbps and 40 ping.

This is true. Internet speed doesn't affect online gaming, ping does.

As I’ve gotten older, my ping isn’t as consistent as it used to be. My ping used to flow like a river. Now it’s as if its blocked or something and it just kind of drips. I should call my ICP to see if there’s anything that can be done. Wait, Is it service or cervice?

Yes, call ICP http://www.insaneclownposse.com/ about your dripping ping. I would love to see how this plays out.

If it is your opponent then you are probably seeing something totally different then what they did. They may have barely flinched. We all know this by now. It is because of the connection difference that this stuff happens. Like when you see a fielder have a ball roll past them so you continue to the next base, but in reality they picked it right on up and are throwing it back in but you dont see it until too late.

Packs, always packs, if you ask the community. How does just buying the player you want entertain us? Buy a bunch of packs and post the video of your demise please.

Nothing should be like MUT. That would be like de-evolution. They are doing bad all by themselves.

@baseballfan2446 said in Might Be Done Playing. Can I Get 1500 back? Can you explain this garbage SDS? Keep stealing from the kids.:

But I'd say tag animations should be improved as far as the time from catch to tag. These players are professional athletes who have elite reflexes, I'd expect something better, at least according to ratings.

They just absolutely refuse to make this realistic. The stupid long animations on plays from OF'ers to the tags being as slow as they can possibly make them. Sure, upon release they look pretty good, then just get worse as the year goes on.

I sense a new Franchise player in the making, welcome to the good side

I am not anything close to you. Just waiting it out. I will be back to playing a competitive mode eventually. Or I wont be playing the game. One or the other. I use to play franchise back in the day and was happy with it. But since they dont do anything but take away from that mode year after year why would you go back?

Vs CPU there are very few issues. No way you can ever say the CPU is in God mode, especially on All Star unless you need to put a few hours practice in. And this is coming from a guy who has loved to play online H2H over the years and has virtually stopped playing that mess of a mode. So it isnt like I think the game can do no wrong or anything like that. But 99% of this games problems are online and a product of mismatched connections. Not offline vs CPU.
