If you can't hit a high fastball even when you know its coming,.... I don't feel sorry for you
All star difficulty has no place in ranked seasons. RS is supposed to be a competitive mode, not a cesspool of randomness. Its ridiculous how many hits come as a result of poor user input, and how many outs come as a result of good user input. If you wanna play on AS difficulty, it should be in a mode where winning doesn't effect your ranking/rewards.
Sorry, but if you're not good at the game, you shouldn't be catered to. That's exactly what AS difficulty is, catering to those who either don't put the time in to get better or simply suck. I don't care if this comes off as elitist. You can have no skill at still win against far superior players on AS difficulty. That is the exact opposite of what ranked seasons in supposed to be.

Yeah, so is the perfect jump steal and homerun derby xp amount. This patch seems like a pretty big fail. I wanna see the team affinity tracker though.
Hey man, gotta patch the things that we enjoy before fixing the real issues
Trusting that SDS wouldn't f*ck up the game
I like the future stars/prospect concept
I think its cool that some of the young prospects from around the league get some recognition and become usable in the game. I wouldn't know 3/4 of these guys if not for these cards and I'm sure others wouldn't either. I don't care that their stats are boosted. Its fun to use young players from your favorite team and it gives some more variety to peoples' lineups. I also have some players to look out for when (if) baseball comes back like Casey Mize, Adley Rutschman, and Forrest Whitley (some of my favorite prospect cards).
Could SDS have implemented it better? Sure. I wish they didn't reuse prospect players for future stars cards. The fact that the event is 6 innings despite there being only 1 prospect reliever is just dumb. And I can see why people are upset that team affinity stage 2 gives future stars as a reward. Some of the cards that were released just aren't that good
But overall, I love the concept and I think people are taking it all a little too seriously. The legend cards will come, just enjoy the fact that we have more options to choose from
You hit the nail right on the head. Nothing has fundamentally changed. There are still good/okays on perfect PCI placements and good/goods on poor PCI placements. Only difference is now there is more room to put the PCI on the ball, which never was a problem in the first place. The problem was the contact result we get for actually putting the PCI on the ball
You summed it up perfectly. Can't hit, pitch, or field, yet its still possible to win. I played 4 games last night. I lost one that I should've won off bad luck, won one that I should've lost on good luck, won one that was fairly even but luck pushed me over the edge, and won one that I deserved to win.
My biggest gripe is the inconsistencies with PCI placement and results. So frustrating to square it up perfectly only to see good/okay on the screen. Same goes for pitching. Like you said, its all based on whether or not RNG is in your favor, even if you release it perfectly. I share the same sentiment as you that this game will almost definitely not last until Christmas
1:10 odds does not mean you are guaranteed 1 diamond for every 10 packs. It means each individual pack has a 10% chance of having a diamond in it.
Imagine if online players complained about too many offline missions. You people cry when there's ONE set of programs that don't cater to you. Its an online game, get over it
Just random chance. SDS doesn't reward user input
I'd love to see it
Greediest MFers I've ever seen. And people like Bob here just lick their boot like its an ice cream cone
If all you need is Chapman then I'd say its worth it. Assuming you don't mind locking in Trout
It'll take some time get used to so dont get discouraged if you don't get it right away. One thing that helps me: when moving the stick down, move it to the side in which you're going to push it up. For example, if I'm throwing a fastball up and in righty vs righty, I'll move the stick down towards the left

Will the fourth time be the charm???
Its been Rollins for me. Batting .315 with him still and I've had him since he came out. Didi is also up there but I have him at second
The only way I can have fun with the game anymore is to smoke some weed and play offline. Online play is completely hopeless
I can definitely understand why. If I'm not having a good time with the game, I'll just turn it off. These guys play this game for a living. Having to play a broken product day in and day out can get frustrating
Bohm for sure
@turtleopolis said in Cole Hamels Card is Unreal!:
If curveballs were good in this game Cy Young and Christy Mathewson wouldn’t be under 20k.
Cy Young and Mathewson are 20k because they only have curveballs. Though I will admit curveballs aren't great
