Am I the only one that has not pre-ordered?

There is no way they put perks for RTTS in packs. I’d be pissee bc it took a slot for something I actually use in DD. I don’t play RTTS and would be just as pissed as you lol
-
I am waiting to see if I can even play the game being an offline DD player who likes stat grinds. Making the Prestige online only was very frustrating and gave little purpose to playing the game. Oh, and then when I was angry at DD I would switch to RTTS and that is gone now too.

Not buying this year, ‘20 was appalling gameplay wise and I was bitterly disappointed that we had once again taken retrograde steps that were the exact opposite of what players had consistently asked for. I can’t reasonably expect SDS to get the game right based on their track record, they failed to improve the game when working exclusively with a system they were intimately familiar with, having developed the franchise on that hardware for a number of years and a multi platform, multi generation title with new features and cross play is surely far in excess of what the studio can comfortably manage, given they’ve barely managed to keep the game functional in years past. Even if the servers can manage to stay online consistently, which would be a mean feat in itself, there’s simply no way the gameplay will be well balanced, fluid and results predominantly based upon user input. It just won’t.
Then there’s the incessant patches which have been a constant menace every year, tending to tinker around with gameplay until the season is mostly over, preventing anyone from improving by practicing consistency, at which point they give up and work on hyping the next years version. I’ve run around this hamster wheel for over half a decade with SDS and this franchise and I’m taking a year off for now. I’d love to see them absolutely nail it and have a phenomenal year, but I’d also like to be a millionaire and bang a few supermodels and that probably ain’t happening either, if I’m realistic.

To the two that started they won't buy until they get a PS5: Can I ask why? Unless you're going with the Standard Edition; you get both versions (PS4 and PS5) and you can start playing on the PS4 and transfer your progress when you get a PS5.
I needed my ducks to fall into line and they just did. I now have a xbox 1 which I will purchase the digital deluxe edition and upgrade when my new series x arrives. I'm not getting a ps5 for the foreseeable future here in Australia.
And here I am with my new xbox account. Do we know how to link our PlayStation accounts with our Xbox accounts yet?

I hope you don't mind my asking, will PS5 and xbox x users see the same community uploaded players and rosters?

While a lot of people appreciate an "update" like this, I have a household with a PS5, PS4 and Xbox One S. I don't want the XBox and Playstation accounts linked. Both are under my name and email though, and yes, I've purchased separate copies.
I think giving people information PRIOR to the Thursday stream is prudent.
Thank you.

What is your question?

I didn’t preorder it either. Don’t have a ps5 and even if I did, it’s a major let down to not see this game at 120 FPS.
-
I preordered yesterday. Currently play PS4 with hopes of getting PS5 before years end. Where do we get the code for PS5?

If you ordered it online (digital) you don't need a code, you just download it when you are ready

How does one know if their Xbox account is linked to their PS account for purposes of MLB the Show? Right now, my PSN has entitlement and is associated with the same email as my PSN log in information. The same applies for my Microsoft account and my Xbox Live account. I don't want them linked orr married unless I actively choose to do so.

Information on how to link account will be posted soon. Given the question, if you want to keep the separate (no cross progression or cross saves) then you don't have to do anything. It is 100% the player's choice if they want to link their account.

Excellent. Thank you for the clarification. Looking forward to additional information.

I don't play DD, just offline franchise. All I want to know is if both xbox x and PS5 users can see the same community vault? -

This.
Plus, I'm one of those who isn't going to order until I get a PS5. I know, I can play until yada yada.....
Don't want to, as simple as that. -

Don't want to, as simple as that.I feel the same. I’m also disappointed this game doesn’t run at 120 FPS on new consoles.
