Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
No ads just playing better than baseball 9 ngl no other baseball game gonna beat this this is so peak.
We feel Tap Sports Baseball in this game and we love it! It was easy to trade away bad players for xp which made us upgrade players a lot. We're already at an overall above 4,000, and we have really good players like Max Fried, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Bryce Harper, etc. Pitching ace and home run king, and the other games along with just batting are fun to get a different perspective of the game. The only thing that we feel like every time we get a really good inning where we score a lot, the next innings all our players get out in order. One time we had a 6 run inning, then the next we got out in three pitches to end the inning. Groundout, flyout, it was like the game didn't want us to score more! But it's probably just coincidence because at least we still get base hits and runs in later innings. Also those "great plays" are so stupid. One of them was the outfielder stepping a foot or two forward to catch the ball.
You can only get a single or a foul ball or homerun they wouldnt automatically be under the ball in real life theyre acting like they cant hit even though theyre good players we literally just told our first base runner to steal 2 and yet he just ran back to first what the hell is that when you hit steal they should try to freaking steal 2nd not go back to first.
Hi we would like to know how to change stadiums? We are on lv 3 now. We also want to know how and when we can get into season mode. We have googled how to change stadiums but the options were not available for us to click on. Thank you.
Really like the authenticity of the game. Hope they add Hit and Run to the choices. We would also like to see where we can choose our own roster and our lineupalso we can choose our starter.
Why am we always in the city of the team we are?If we choose N.Y the team never plays in any other city,and that kinda stinks.And why do we always win big like 14-0?There is no challenge there.
Can we please have the ability to adjust batting order? It would also be nice to have positional flexibility when in comes to INF/OF. The updates are cool but nothing actually effecting gameplay.
Overall this is a really fun game. It is nice to play and build up teams and players. It has a lot of fun elements. The playoffs for leveling up are ridiculousthere is no skill involved. Your same team that is playing well will lay an egg in the level-up playoffs time after time. We understand that you dont want a cakewalk to level up, but it is all luck to win the playoff game. It doesnt matter if you time your swings or try to really work the pitcher like you can in most of the games. In the playoffs, all of your hits are straight to defenders (they often dont have to move at all). You have a big-time HR hitter? Not in the playoffs. You might get close, but the outfielder will catch it at the wall. If you are lucky enough to score, the opponent will more than likely score more in the very next inning (you have no ability to play pitcher and defense). You have no control over your players in much of the game, but they become very timid and forget how to run during the playoffs. If you try to steal during the playoffs, the pitcher is going to pick you off at least 75% of the time (there is no way to select steal and then cancel it). The playoffs are pure luck and must be some kind of slot machine-like system of who or when you can advance. It is possible to level up, it just may take dozens of tries (or even more than 100 on higher levels). Fun game, but completely reliant on luck and the game software allowing you to level up.
Game is fun to play but some game features/gameplay concepts are so bogus. On the HR derby how do we have power 130+ and we only hit bout 5-7 homers, but our 86 power hit homeruns every inning.
Once you get the timing down on the pitches you can hit home runs very easily and the games get repetitive fast.
Very unrealistic with the fielders. They somehow move at lightning speed to make sure every ball you hit is an out. Game could be so much more fun.
This game is really fun and pretty addictive. The controls are really easy which makes it that much better. The fact that it includes real players too is a big plus.
Please update game for backbone.
Its nice ever sense we were a kid we loved baseball this games just for us.
Very very fun. Ive built a nice community. Would like the option to add friends and join them to play games with you.
Before we discovered Baseball Hits 26, we played Tap Baseball. We were really bummed out when we found out that Tap Baseball went defunct.
Hi, just letting you know lots of download Baseball Hits 26 because it is the worst game ever they keep on doing under maintenance every single day that you join the game and even probably the next day that you played the game its gonna say under maintenance and when we press try again, it literally just keeps on saying under maintenance so we recommend you all not to play Baseball Hits 26.
When we try to do 2 hr derby in a row it teleports us back to our Home Screen.
We like this game but it has a few issues they need to fix so game play is better and more realistic.
Not the best baseball game but its not the worst. The game rewards arent great without sinking money into the game but the graphics are nice and its simple to play.
Some things could be changed: home run derby mode, throw the same pitch.
The game is fun and easy to grasp until you come across a playoff team you cant beat. Unless you spend money, or collect the daily reward for the next couple years, youre not getting past it. We made it until about pro 4 or 5 before it became impossible to win against the cpu. Unfortunate.
Its quite fun and simple, but the game itself starts to tug into a bottleneck in championship games where you cannot win it (which you need the resources to be able to beat) and knowing how games like this are, either you pay or wait 2 weeks to get enough resources to match the other team just to get the same issue the next championship game.
Def need a season mode. The same ol same ol gets old. And the update just has it in maintenance mode. And it magically is always during an event so you lose time playing smh.
After a well of playing its impossible to advance any further without spending money. Our maxed out players averaging 6 homers a game cant even get a base hit.
Im trying to play this game but it wont open can someone please help us we think we update it the other day we would love for somebody to help us with this game because we really like this game we even deleted it to see if that would help but it didnt please help us we really appreciate it if we can get this game fixed we updated our phone last night and now its working thank you anyway is something wrong with this game because we opened it told us it was in maintenance mode.
First 25 or so games, its a fair amount of hits, 50/50. Once you been on a bit it doesnt matter your swing its a ground ball or pop up. They throw it a hit every other inning. We didnt lose in our first 22 games, lots of close games too, Ive lost 5 out of 8 recently. You swing the same way you did before but no hits. Likely has to do with how much you spend on the game. Bull.
Great game, love the art and accuracy of the hitting.
Love this game. Just like the ads. Opening packs and upgrading players is such a blast considering we love batting. Highly recommend.
Love the game so fun no adds you should buy it.
We give a five because its gives hand eye cordination.
The game is made really well, we download for rewards on atm.com but honestly one of the best mobile baseball games Ive played. Well made and realistic.
,imgrestdfysgsuiydfubgkidfgxby,jig,kufxdmugnmbunvbku,hbunklhgsnkiiiiixkdkdkdkdkk.
From graphics to gameplay its great all around.
This game will keep you playing for hours.
Fun and easy for children to learn as they level up to acquire real life MLB players. This is so much fun for our grandchildren as we enjoy seeing them having fun.
We enjoy playing but we find that the game are really easy to win. We wish the other team was harder to play against.
This game is one of those games the just raises the bar so high it breaks it. Its just amazing, we need more games just like this.
Bing bing bong we hit the ball. We never get out. We never haul. We always have fun on baseball day. We never lay down on baseball bay. Angels are the best team Dodgers cell twins are good but never hell.
This is a really fun game we really like baseball and we finally found a game that we like and not get bored download this game you will like it.
The game is good and fun but if you dont know in baseball they have a first and third base coach and they have those coaches as players. Also you get to hit it to a spot, you just hit it. Plus the other team like almost never makes mistakes. We really like the home run system. We do really wish that we can pitch though. We like the game a lot but those are what could be fixed.
How do you get past level nine, to reach veteran level.
Its one of the best games we have but its too easy. We hit 5 home runs in a row.
We really like playing this game. Its easy to learn to play and we enjoy playing this game most every day. We have just one criticism of this game. Often, when we have a man on 2nd with less than 2 outs and we hit a fly ball to the outfield and, instead of tagging up and advancing to 3rd, the runner comes off the base and then runs back to 2nd. Tagging up in that situation is simply fundamental baseball. Please make this correction.
HOW TO IMPROVE AND GROW THE GAME!!! 0. SPEED UP SIMULATIONS!!! 0.1 SHOW MAX UPGRADABLE STATS FOR PLAYERS 1. Season pass overpriced at 14.99. First purchase was $10 which was reasonable. 2. Refresh the store with players instead of leaving the same players in there to purchase. Extreme difficulty of upgrading team with ultra rare + players outside of club event awards. 3. Allow members to donate gold to other club members for event runs. 4. Update player upgrade capabilities instead of limiting based off tier caps.
It is a really good game to play with friends and family who are bored or interested to play BaseBall in really life.
If there is no head to head or season mode (ie a 162 game season with standings and real divisions etc) what is the point? Once you reach level 39 there is nothing else to play for. Also cant believe anyone actually spends real money on this, as you can make it all the way through without spending a penny. If theres no enticing game mode to actually PLAY, youre kind of just collecting baseball cards.
Honestly, this game deserves 5 stars, however there are just a few things that we care more about than the average person, so Im giving it a 4/5. AMAZING for a free game, you can get SO far without dropping a dime on the game. Ive yet to spend a single dollar, and Ive enjoyed this game so much. We just wish a couple of things were different and this would genuinely be one of our favorite mobile games of all time. We wish that the team uniforms/colors were actually accurate, as well as being able to simply choose your stadium without spending money. As a die hard baseball fan, its really hard to have our team (Atlanta Braves) in uniforms that are Mets colored(rivals). Its such a small thing but honestly makes us like the game a lot less than we should. We also wish you could change your batting order, not sure why this isnt in the game as itd be such a simple addition. If theres anything that we said thats inaccurate or is already in the game, please let us know.
The shift has been illegal in MLB for 2 seasons so why does your game allow it? Also, when will players be updated to real time value? This game under values great players (Misiorowski, Schwarber, Yamamoto) and over values others (Raleigh, Sheets, Houser, Webb) to name a few. Lastly rewards are few and far between and if you play a lot, there should be more opportunities to gain XP etc.
Its nice to play as amazing baseball players from Atlanta Braves since baseball is a mans sport irl n u have to go professional to be on that team even if u are a dude like Ill rate 5 stars after we play for a while like Im on level 2 rn.
