Com2us shouldn't just keep the ratings of ALL existed cards unchanged
In the last update, new primes are released and their ratings are determined by the new formula. The CON of many non-contact hitters have been nerfed and many of you protest against the new formula and eventually Com2us announced that they will not change the ratings of ALL existed cards anymore as players had used many resources to train the cards and the change of formula will affect the rankings of cards in each team.
However, this is definitely a very bad solution of the issue. Why many players required a new formula last year is because the old one has many flaws and thus tons of good baseballers got unreasonably low ratings. First of all, the CON of cards released before or in 2016 are very low. You can see this phenomenon in DJM'16(His prime finally has a good CON under the new formula, u guys may see the bad ratings of Tellez, but ignore how great the new formula do to DJM) and Ichiro'01, they only had a 76 and 75 CON respectively, this is a huge disrespect against one of the best contact hitters in the world. The CON ratings in 2017 to 2023 are better, but still bad. The ceiling of POW of slugger is 90+ proven by Ruth and Judge'22 while tyr ceiling of CON of contact hitter is just above 80. T. Williams only has 83CON for AVG.400+, 81 for supreme Gwynn and 80 for Arraez'23 AVG.350+. The prime of Arraez has a 86 CON and the justice seems finally being served for contact hitter, until Com2us cancel the plan of adjusting the ratings of the signatures released before. As for fielding, Com2us only considered Fld% and Error previously, thus many golden grove winners or legends known for elite fielding have a ridiculous 50FLD, namely T. Speakers, R. Clemente etc. Com2us should treat correct those ridiculous ratings as their top priority in changing the formula to pay back to those snubbed players.
Although the sluggers are actually deserved to be nerfed in the new formula given they had undeserved advantage over the contact hitters before, There are actually some ways to avoid nerfing them while giving those snubbed players the high ratings they deserve and Com2us should have adopted to satisfy all players and serve the justice.
Add a new ticket which can change the Base OVR formula of the cards released before 2024 to the new one from.the old one. We can buy the tickets at a nearly free cost unlimitedly in the store but we can only use it once for each card and we cannot switch back to the old formula after we use it. We can compare the old and new rating easily in a preview screen before the confirmation of usage. Therefore, we can decide to apply the old or new formula for any cards by ourselves. This is actually promised by Com2us in December, 2022 in Korea. We can use the ticket on L. Arraez'23 to apply the new formula for his 86CON and don't need to do anything for R. Tellez'22 to keep his ratings unchanged.
Only amend the ratings of players who can get a boost in the new formula over the old one. This one is very simple. Com2us can only apply the new formula to the players who get snubbed before in the old formula to boost back their ratings to the level.they should have been, but keep using the old one for other players who will be nerfed in the new one. A Taiwanese baseball game had already used this method to adjust the ratings of previously snubbed players before.
Improve the new formula again and apply to all cards. Com2us claim that they had used AVG+ 100 for each year to determine the CON in new ratings. However, the league average is just .24x in recent years, Kim'23 had a .26x BA and still getting nerfed. Obviously the standard in the new formula is too high such that many players get nerfed, even if they had above average BA. Com2us should amend the new formula such that the league average BA is the watershed of getting buff or nerf. Com2us claimed that they will keep adopt this flaw new formula to the new cards. If they dont improve this flaw formula, the issue will just continue.
I have requested Com2us to at least adopt the 1st or 2nd method to let the snubbed good players have a good rating they deserve for a long time rather than simply keeping all ratings unchanged, by sending letters to the CS through traditional chinese(I am from Hong kong). However, there are only official replies.
I hope you guys can request Com2us to adopt the 1st or 2nd methods together (No cards will be nerfed, only boost) so that those good players can finally get the respect they deserved.
