I do like baseball, not my everyday sport as a Brit but always on the lookout for a good baseball sim. Well I downloaded this, had a quick go, loved the graphics and promptly deleted it. I knew it was going to be deleted pretty quick before I downloaded it but just wanted to see what it actually looked played like. It's premium games or no games for me. GaZ
That is quickly becoming my motto as well, such a shame because there is a good game in there being all the trapping
I have never paid a penny on a F2P game and I'm not about to start now. When McDonalds start giving away burgers and charge me for every bit, I won't be going there either.
Okay. Change of pace here. This game is IMPOSSIBLY hard. I have lost my first five games. Just lost to the effing blue jays 19-1. Soooo ya. I've played lots of baseball games but I'm wondering how the difficulty is this unforgiving. Maybe I'm doing it wrong? Maybe I should just go back to RBI?
Yeah, the ONLY game I won was when I selected CHANCE, and Verlander shut out KC. I won 1-0. And the next game I tried playing Manual, losing 8-2. I'm growing weary of this game too. I'll probably end up settling for RBI Baseball this season. Maybe pick up try my old GBA All-Star Baseball 2004... It's better than this.

And I agree that the game is extremely unforgiving. Wish easy mode was a little easier. There is no room for error.
Anyone know how training works? How do players level up from playing? Have you guys noticed any of your players gaining levels as you play more games? Or after a win? Its a pity they made this so hard.
Anyone know how you unlock batting and exibition mode, or any of the modes besides season for that matter?
Yeah it's just way too hard. As good as dead. I had a couple of good games even one when I got a grand slam and another 7-1 win but it's no fun its so hard. I suspect the ease of batting is tied to IAP that's why they won't make easy really easy. The most I could honestly give this game would be 2/10 or 1/5 because however good it looks with real players and real seasons its impossible to play and enjoy. A terrible pity for ios I agree.
They must want us to go play other baseball games the way they've made this near impossible to hit the ball. I played 9 innings and scored no runs. Worse than soccer.
What really sucks is that they're showing us they COULD make a somewhat decent MLB licensed game... BUT they won't. That really frustrates me! First charge me $25/month to watch my team's games (unless their away to a local team - stupid blackout rules!), then show me you have the ability to hire people to make decent MLB mobile games, but then decide to make them terrible by limiting what we can do or how we do it. We just want to support MLB and maybe have some fun doing it! Why do they make it so friggin hard to do that??
If a center fielder is standing right next to second base about to throw it to the plate, HE DOES NOT NEED TO THROW IT TO THE SECOND BASEMAN AS A CUTOFF! That is completely unrealistic. I'm pressing the home plate button and NOT the relay/cutoff button, so why doesn't he throw it to the plate?!
My guess is because the default players are so terrible that his noodle arm could not get it to the home plate
My favorite I when a slow grounder goes right past the SS or second basemen and they just sit their and watch it slowy go into the outfield. Also, don't know if anyone's encountered this yet but I've hit a grounder and when the person plays the ball it says I'm out. I guess the game is registering the ball as in the air, thinking I hit a pop fly out. It just sucks because this game has so much going for it and just a few things are really spoiling the experience.
RBI 14? Really? You mean the one where every pitcher has the same three pitches, each team has three starters, and can pitch from the bullpen every game....yea thats fun....."not!!"
I never said it was the greatest game ever and yes it's basic to say the least but it's a paid app that's not going to drive me mad and try to mug my wallet
