Bump to ask if I am the only one who completely fricks up baserunning every single time? Franchise mode and RTTS, I am awful


Lol I got one of my good friends to pick up the game and he's been just flipping cards for the most part. But for someone who has owned the game for two weeks, he still has auto baserunning on

It's easy once you figure it out.

Is the Chipper program fixed yet with this patch?

Mine wasn't working over the weekend, but it was working yesterday.

Apparently everything the patch supposedly fixed (freezes, nerfing oppo power on 'just late' hits) just isn't working

What a shite show. I'll keep playing though.

Figures.

Chipper program was still broken for me yesterday afternoon.

I got the 4 hits, 1 home run and 4 RBI, but was only credited with 3 RBI two different times before I just moved on to something else.

Oh wait, sounds like you're talking about the one that you do against the CPU w/ Braves players.

I have had no issues at all w/ games vs. the CPU in a week or two. Those should be going fine. You probably scored a run w/ a Braves player or something but it was while you hit into a double play or something that nullified the RBI.

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about, but all my stats were legit.

I was also working on team epics at the same time so I was playing against the CPU on rookie. I hit 5 separate home runs with Braves players in one game, so I know for a fact it should've counted, but for some reason it only counted three RBI for me.

Super aggravating, but not much I can do about it I guess.

Were you using all live series players? I've heard people saying that it's only counting stats for live series players and those who are in your starting lineup.

IE. If you have FB Freddie Freeman, or the Diamond McGriff card then it wouldn't work. Also, it's also been said that if you bring someone off of the bench as a sub that they're contributions also won't count.

Yeah, I used every single live series player they typically start except for Freddie Freeman.

I read on another site that other people were having similar issues with it.

I guess I'll just have to try it again in a few days.

I got the two wins vs braves on the time limited event and it didn't register. Also got the 1 win on the release date and it didn't register.

ALSO pre-ordered the game and it didn't give me my 11k tokens.

Finally made fricking World Series this morning.

As much as I like the new hitting after the most recent update, it certainly made getting there a lot tougher.

Still can't get more than six wins in BR though

I need to just solely focus all of my gameplay in BR. That is how people build their teams if they don't drop $500 on the game out of the gate.

That's what I'm doing now. Most wins I've strung together is six though lol.

My team is mostly golds and only a few diamonds.

OF: Braun, FB BJ Upton, AS Griffey

IF: Rookie David Wright, Trea Turner, 97 Kinsler, Freeman, then my CAP is the C

Rotation: PS Sabathia, Degrom, Darvish, Rookie Thor, Carrasco

Bullpen: Brett Cecil, FB Perkins, Doolittle, Osuna, Oh, Nate Jones and Iglesias

I've only spent like an additional $50 in addition to the $100 version of the game where I got Freeman as my comeback reward. I packed a Posey last week from a BR pack so I bought Turner and completed the Rangers who I only needed Darvish.

I'm already out of WS lol. Dropped down to 890's, but still getting that Goldy thank goodness.

Have you finished all the conquest rewards yet? That Reggie Jackson card is absolutely OP and is worth the grind of all those missions. I think I'm getting a HR with him about every six at bats on rank online.I got lucky with the diamond starter mission and got flashback AJ Pollock when I finished grinding 100 hits with Brock Holt.

yes, I've finished all the conquest stuff. That Jackson is a great card, but I'm using All-Star Griffey grinding for the Breakout. Only need one more HR. Even then though, I may find another option, we'll see.

I wanted that flashback Pollock so bad. Congrats to you on that. I got stupid Eric Karros after getting 100 freaking strikeouts w/ Chris freaking Tillman. It was horrible.

I already had Freeman and Rizzo for first so he just wastes away on my team.

Does beating the conquest mission open up other missions for you like the brock holt 100H's or Tillman 100ks? What did you get the Pollock for completing?

The diamon Pollock is the diamond starter reward for like 100 hits/100ks w/ someone.

Can somebody clear up the exchange center fielders mission in the diamond program for me?


If I exchange a CF is he gone from my inventory completely? What if the player is locked already?
