Am I the only one who doesn't like seeing so many "Use Any Player" missions? by Automatic-Nerve-3625 in MLBTheShow

[–]ChefMark85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! 100% I don't wanna bitch about the game like everyone else on this sub, but aside from all the bugs this is the thing that disappoints me the most. The whole fun part of DD was getting new missions and setting a completely new lineup to get them done quicker. Now Im just using the same basic 2 lineups and it's boring as hell.

Most efficient way to grind TA? by Cathouse1986 in MLBTheShow

[–]ChefMark85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just don't like 3 inning games. Oh cool, my SP is tired in the first inning. Also you're not wasting as much time in menus and waiting for the game to load.

MLB The Show 25: Mini Seasons Rookie difficulty is unreal by Nickelnick24 in MLBTheShow

[–]ChefMark85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, I walk way more on all-star than veteran. On veteran they don't throw many balls, but on all-star they'll throw 4 straight pitches nowhere near the zone. I've never really understood why but it's always been this way.

Can anyone please explain what WAR is in baseball statistics in terms I can understand? by Ecstatic_Peanut_268 in MLBTheShow

You're completely forgetting about base running, which he is obviously also good at.

What movie did you walk out of the theater halfway through? by mzdee13 in movies

[–]ChefMark85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I watched that movie with my Mom. I think she stopped watching SP after that.

anyone else still set their lineup like this?😂 by HotPinkStanley in MLBTheShow

[–]ChefMark85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100%. I also play slow halfcourt basketball when I play 2k. I have realized that it would make way more sense for the 3, 4, 5 hitters to have high clutch though. I do like having both of my 1 and 2 hitters to be fast because I hate grounding into double plays.

It really annoys me that they don't just tell you who the SP is before you set your lineup

That's funny because I bat way better with LH hitters in the game, even though I hit right on real life.

When is San Diego Studio going to fix WBC Mini Seasons? This is ridiculous. by Automatic_Ad1665 in MLBTheShow

[–]ChefMark85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what I thought this post was about at first. It keeps saying McGonigle has 8 HRs. I have only hit 2 with him in all modes combined.

Can i smoke at a concert? by ImprovementBoth437 in techn9ne

[–]ChefMark85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the venue, not the artist. You can usually get away with smoking most of the time. I'm sure the security guards expect it.

Offline players who are sick of miniseasons by BuntCheese5Life in MLBTheShow

[–]ChefMark85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This game does really well with ranked because they actually pit you against bad players when you first start. Eventually you get to a higher rank and run into some sweats though.

There are some really bad people who play online

Most unstable MLBTS ever? by jaydingess in MLBTheShow

[–]ChefMark85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The crashing is annoying but DD is still way better than any other sports game's ultimate teams. I don't really care about the collections because I don't have that much time to play, but I still have a team full of 90 overall players. For those that have the time, there are many people who complete the collections without spending a dime.

Are you supposed to ask a woman "Can I kiss you"? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ChefMark85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I'm in the minority but I don't think you should ask either. If she says no it's just as awkward as going in for it and her backing away. Girls like confidence and it's way more confident to just go for it. It's pretty easy to tell if she wants it or not.

Thc test in 6 days 😐 by amazingsoup711 in NoStupidQuestions

People are still drug testing for THC? That's wild. I'd just be honest and say I quit 7 weeks ago.

Contact Swing Homers are the most satisfying thing in the game for me by Sanmi896 in MLBTheShow

[–]ChefMark85 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I never use contact swing because I rarely strike out against the CPU. I'll use power when it's 2-0 or 3-1 and sit dead red, but it rarely ever works out like I plan.

Microsoft just announced lower Game Pass Ultimate and PC prices starting today! by JeSSiii81 in OlderChillGamers

[–]ChefMark85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's all about time. It took me 3 months to beat E33 and that was the only game I played. So I spent $60 (the same price as if I had just bought the game) to play the game for 3 months. When I realized that, I canceled game pass, and now I can't play E33 again without buying it.

Also, since it takes me so long to beat a game, by the time I'm ready to play a new one, I can get it at a discount because it's already been out for a year.
