Anyone else on the fence about preordering?

definitely preordering... hopefully Thursday... my only issue is if I'm getting 15th Anniversary Edition or Digital Deluxe since I don't have the flexibility I had in years past where I was able to get both... last year I preordered both but never went forward with picking up the "Go Yard!" Edition from GameStop... with my internet situation being shaky I might just opt for 15th Anniversary Edition and as long as GameStop doesn't botch this year like they did two years ago I'll go pick it up on the 12th and hopefully enjoy a 4-day weekend of playing this game to my hearts content... but we'll see if that plan comes to fruition.

Man every year the game play is awesome online for the first couple weeks. I get all hyped spend money etc.. Then the patches come, they [censored] the game up intentionally and we get back to user input not meaning [censored]. It happens every year. I will not be buying this game period until I'm certain they actually listened this year to the fact user input SHOULD MATTER!

I think I’m gonna pull the trigger and get the $70 version. I’ve been thinking about it a lot, and Ik I’m probably gonna want to try 20 out for myself at some point, so I may as well just get it and try it out right away. Also, this league mode with customizable sliders really has me excited for 20. Even if rs plays like [censored], customizable sliders will fix a lot of the problems with exit velos and lineouts

Waiting is a no-brainer for me. Just on principle, I'm not giving SDS a 40% premium to play at release so there's no real incentive to pre-order.
Also get 4 days worth of reviews to find out if they actually made any changes to hitting outside the PCI visualization and enhanced feedback. Even though I also know they will likely wipe out rewarding input in the first few patches regardless.

Preach. Just long enough to sucker in folks on the fence but not long enough for the whales to get discouraged and stop opening their wallet. Like clockwork.

Yeah if I hate DD then I'll just play leagues with the foul ball and contact rate turned way down

To me 19 played it's best out the box then any other MLB the show gm!! It got worse the more they patched it. IMO

I just preordered the other day. Only gm I play when I do have time. Got the $100 version for the first time cause I really want to hit the ground running. Plus with lgs being in gm I'll split my time between the modes. So this will put me in a gd spot to build my DD team quicker

Welp I dropped 80 bucks for the privilege to beta test the game before it releases to the general public. I am the problem

If a person is on the fence and wants to wait it out the 4 days for reviews, that ain’t gonna work. The first 2 weeks everyone and their dog will be posting they finally did it they finally listened the game is amazing. 2 weeks later a few complaints begin. 4 weeks later more complaints start to come in. 6-8 weeks later everyone and their dog is complaining and the game is broke. FACTS.
Don’t bother waiting, there’s no point, you either want to play a baseball game or you don’t. Because I’m telling you it’ll be the same game with the same issues, it always is! There will be shiny new cards! New legends! New leagues! They added new hitting and fielding improvements! New content! And the game will play the same... They add new stuff each year to mask the problems. Then the shiny toy effect rubs off and here we are! And repeat see you 2021! -
Everyone talking about the $70 dollar one, in the USA is there is no 70 dollar one this year. that is what has thrown me for a loop, because that is the one I always order. So because they only offer 60,80 and 100 dollar this year I was just gonna get the base 60 dollar one, since I know I can get all that fancy stuff rather quick, but then noticed you dont get early access on the 60 dollar one. So now I am gonna end up getting the next one, the 80 dollar one instead sigh. But I do have a 10 bucks off from loyalty rewards so that will help a bit.

I get the burnout feeling. Haven’t been on in 2.5 months, I’m hoping the new game brings the enthusiasm back. The beginning of the year is always great, this year I just lost time/interest sooner than before
I walked away for 8 months. Gave my PS away and everything. After once being a WS player (multiple times in 17), for whatever reason I have not been able to make the adjustments to get back to the promised land. If I couldn’t compete at a high level, I didn’t see much point in putting the time in. Then I got bored in January, bought a used PS and got back in the game. And here I am, still unable to make the adjustments.......and ready to walk away again. -
