Something happened to the difficulty...

[citybythebay85]

I was winning 99% of games on Veteran, usually easily... now the last couple days I can't hit or score runs and I've been losing, on veteran!!! What is the deal???

Re: Something happened to the difficulty...

I'm confused....did you want to continue winning 99% of your games? Doesn't losing some of them mean that you're playing on the right difficulty for you?

You're slumping, and we all go through it. I'd just keep playing.

Hmmm. I would have absolutely zero fun with this game if I was winning 99% of my games. Just came off a 2 game losing streak and both losses felt right. Enjoyed them both.

Yeah OP, kind of opening yourself up to a ton of criticism with this one.

Re: Something happened to the difficulty...

Did I say I played all my games on veteran? I play some in DD on veteran and usually I win until now. That’s my only observation. I didn’t say I won 99% of every game I play. You don’t really need to be dicks about it. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to win.

I also should have remembered that any time I post a question on here I just get criticized for something. Thanks for the help guys.

They mess with the game a bit every now and then. It can take a while to adjust. I struggled for a couple days out the gate after last weeks patch. When I am grinding on rookie now I am actually taking walks....that has never happened ever in the history of ever!

Wasn't being a dick at all - you only mentioned Veteran and nothing about DD, so what exactly am I supposed to assume about your difficulty level?

Nothing's wrong with wanting to win (and I didn't say there was), but I guess I should ask what you're looking for out of the game. If your difficulty level is good you're going to win some and lose some - that's just baseball because no one goes 162-0. If it's too low you're going to win an abnormally high % of games. To me, losing some games means that I'm playing on the "right" difficulty for my skill level, and is a sign I don't need to change anything.

Really not trying to be an *** here - I'm just curious what you want out of the game.

Edit: By DD do you mean dynamic difficulty or Diamond Dynasty? If it's Dynasty there's obviously more meaning in playing a lower difficulty in order to have a high winning percentage.

My apologies if my previous post seemed out of line. I only meant it light-heartedly & good-naturedly.

Diamond Dynasty. Where exactly what you said, it’s good to win.

You’re forgiven. I understand. I just wish more people would respond with something like “I have/haven’t noticed that” instead of criticizing how someone plays a game.

Re: Something happened to the difficulty...

Also I guess I should have posted this in the Diamond Dynasty forum to be more specific of the mode I’m playing.

Re: Something happened to the difficulty...

I am personally LOVING 18 compared to 17. I had a logged in less than a full week of work (40 hrs) into 17 and have long since passed that mark and am as happy as I was with 15 and 16.

even when playing on rookie in 17, I couldn't hit to save my life... if you lose and cant win on rookie well you know you suck at this game lol... but now I'm smoking it in 18 and have no complaints... being in love with a game is great...

Nobody is being dicks. It's what you said in your original post. If your just a casual gamer and just want to win, then fine. I'm not sure what kind of response you wanted.

You really didn't ask for help and it was quite unclear what you were getting at. I think most people rightfully read you won 99% of your games and you aren't happy now that you can't. Maybe you should have been clearer?
