@Some_Schmuck_22 said in Why do so many people play in:

Yankee Stadium is by far the worst. The crowd, the subway train in the background. There's just too much going on and the CPU can't handle it without tremendous lag. Please, if you must play in the Bronx please use Classic Yankee Stadium. The dimensions are the exact same and the lag factor is greatly decreased.

Yea Yankee stadium is really bad, of course Minute Maid is also horrendously bad

I think closer to release the option to upgrade will be added

@andre022084 said in Player Card Appearances:

I hope the player models stay realistic if the the players are traded on the game. They go to a generic look when they switch teams.

I completely agree. Like madden the players faces still appear as the photo even if they are traded in game!

What I wanna see happen is being able to choose when to challenge instead of the game choosing. It could help players a lot!!!

I would like to see a FULL presentation mode in franchise. I LOVED putting my music into the game in certain situations. But NOW you can't hear the song you pick for pre-game. OR the one after the game ends. I love what I have for when a batter strikes out. Vincent Price's laugh at the end of "Thriller". Plus an update in commentary would be nice. Have the guys talk about something random, tell a baseball story or even have a retired player come into the booth if their team is playing. A change of pace, NBA 2K does it. THIS game can do that too. Madden UPDATES commentary every so often. SO every once in a while you'll hear something different. I would play online more, just for fun IF the gameplay was better. BUT when I did in 18, the pitching was slower than in franchise. understand you can't DO everything BUT fix the things you can. If you fix it every so often after it comes out then so be it. It's a great game, lets make it greater. So no other game is thought of. I think it COULD be done. As for announcers, LOVE DeRo & Plesac, BUT Matt I'm sorry needs to be replaced. Why not try and get Bob Costas OR Vin Scully? I also import my own music because the music that is picked is by bands that I've never heard of. I'm an old man lol I like old rock music. SOME baseball songs would be nice. But more old school bands would be a nice touch in the game. Not every listens to today's music.

Great picks.

I would like Mike Mussina.

In MVP and High Heat Baseball, I would CRUSH my opponent with his knuckle curve.

@tylerslikewhoa said in Base running:

Yes it works very well

TYLER YOUR THE BEST BRO!!! LETS GO

The check swing system works as they intended it. The problem is that what you see on the screen does not match up with what the game “sees”, and if SDS hasn’t figured that part out by now then I doubt that changes until PS5.

The call has NOTHING to do with what you see on the screen. The call is based on combination of hitter attributes like discipline, the type of swing you use (power, normal, or contact) and a virtual dice roll. Pitcher attributes such as k/9 and bb/9 may factor in, but I’m not sure. Once you realize this and ignore what you see on the screen, it will lead to less anger/annoyance and you can use it to your advantage.

If your opponent is successfully check swinging a lot, especially with guys that have lower discipline then you know they are contact swinging. Maybe bring the outfield in to prevent the “Ichiro bloop” from landing just beyond the infield. In that situation I also tend to mix up speeds within the zone a lot because they will either check swing on a called strike or hit it weakly somewhere.

Why’d you get banned? I got banned twice for stupid stuff.

Arguing, goading people into fights. But I'm reformed now.

Bryce Harper is an overpaid manbaby, the Phillies have too many SS cards, and Philadelphia is the worst city in America if not the world.

Let’s dance.

I respect your opinions.

You’ve changed and I don’t like that.

I am sorry you feel that way. I will try harder in the future to accomadate your feelings.

I feel validated and I appreciate your openness. Thank you for your empathy.

I am very glad we decided to see Dr Hartman. I believe he is helping to save this marriage.

Yes, beating you with the nerf bat truly helped me.

Only 20 day period of pain. 22nd all is good again.

? What happens on the 22nd?

And where did we read about streams?

What is going ooooooooonnnnnnn????

Baseball happens the 22nd. Duh.

Wait ... humans still play live baseball?? Do they just not know about MLB:TS? Or are they just all Xbox people?

You make a really good point. I was thinking his contact is a little low. I personally think JT is higher than 72 with his contact. As a Phillies fan I have watched most of the games this year and he has made contact (especially good contact) most of the time. I just thought he might need an overall boost or 2.

Lifelong giants fan here, and I genuinely feel bad for the Dodgers. They got Cora’d two World Series in a row. Its ridiculous that no players were disciplined over this. That’s the power of the union, I guess.

MLB gave immunity to the players to get them to tell the truth in the investigation. So it's really on Manfred.

Then the investigation reveals it was a "mainly player driven" scheme, but none of the players can be punished. SMH!

I think it’s awesome that opposing players aren’t keeping quiet about it. What Clevinger said in his little interview snippet was great. Hood justice 💪

@Scratch1977 said in Altuve and Bregman cheated:

Sigh... Guess I should get used to all this. So be it.

Although I cannot defend my team’s actions, I will forever stand by them. Hopefully this next chapter is one of them proving themselves after all this. Hopeful for redemption at some point.

Yes, it’s sad and disheartening, but stuff does happen and all we can do is learn from it. #Stros4Lyfe

Go Stros.

I feel for you but I can’t help but think things will not be the same with your team until there is more clearing of house. Any of those players successes will surely continue to come under scrutiny so long as they wear the Astros uniform.

Technically no, since there aren't enough 99 overall bullpen pieces, but if you mean is it possible/easy to get a god squad, then yes. 2019 has been probably the easiest year to get 99's at virtually every position.

The only thing I would improve on is the graphics. They seem to be less than 19. Maybe that’s because this is the beta and I am jumping the gun a little bit we will see when the final product comes out. Thanks again for letting me enjoy my favorite game of all time!!!

@dvd101485 said in Team Equipment:

Hi there avid Show and baseball fans, I mainly do exhibition games on it.

As a Cardinals fan, I've always liked their alternate navy and red brimmed hats as well as their alternate navy road hats.

Just wondering if there's any way I can download those hats in Marketplace or some other way?

If you could please let me know if this is possible and/or if there's something else I need to download or do to access those hats for the St. Louis Cardinals, I'd greatly appreciate knowing in your follow up response as my Internet searches haven't provided me any answers.

Cheers,
Dylan

What do you mean? So you can use them in your Diamond Dynasty uniforms?

As far as I know standard edition will be march 16th 2020, the anniversary, digital deluxe and MVP ones have the early access.
