    At least 17 was playable 12 hours later. This is ridiculous, throw more bananas at the monkeys with the wrenches in the server room

    After 12 hours? It went on for months

    The game as a whole was playable though after that first day. Slow, but playable, the queue was annoying and so were the occasional lost connection messages. Right now we have offline modes that aren't even playable, I remember on launch night playing offline for all of the trophies.

    Yeah i guessssss...if you want to get technical

    I mean honestly looking back and comparing it here, if they patch it tonight or tomorrow its basically an identical launch. If we have to wait a week and RTTS remains broken, easily 21.

    Nah i'd rather deal with a week of this than months of 17

    Each their own, recency bias may be in effect on my behalf. Either way, shouldn't have this especially when you think that SDS cut out an entire game mode to improve the stability.

    Look how they massacred my boy...

    Tbh with you, and this may be a ridiculous theory but I think it's just stupid enough to be the problem. I think the RTTS patch fixes even the servers. Think about it. RTTS was always the game mode you played when servers were down. This year, you can't even play it due to It being connected to DD(which is stupid). What if the RTTS connection to DD is causing the same problems that they claimed OFM caused? A whole hell of a lot more people play RTTS than people that played OFM. As of 18 more played RTTS than DD(although I expect that gap has gotten closer). It's more likely that SDS just massively underestimated the XBox playerbase, I'm just throwing it out there.

    At least I think we can all agree ‘17 was the last great game they put out. Maybe something to look forward to (fingers crossed)

    It’s bad, but it’s far from the worst. We’ve had years where you couldn’t log in. The year where event wins didn’t accumulate across runs. Freeze offs every time a batter is walked. Considering the client base potentially doubled today with Xbox users coming on, it could’ve been worse.

    I think launching a game and not taking it offline immediately when people were losing stubs due to glitch on market is the worst possible thing that could happen, but that’s just my opinion 🤷

    Ive played every game at launch since 17 and ive never experienced issues like this. Its been a disaster. Im sure it will get straightened out but im disappointed its taken this long already.

    The game just seems held together with duct tape.

    Yeah, they probably are not happy about this. Not the visibility you want when you are trying to pull new players in from a new platform.

    Fair point. But I think having people shell out “X” amount of money to play your game and have it literally unplayable is worse. (And even worse for those that paid extra to play early and couldn’t play).

    I couldn’t even get into games last night.

    Lmao. Missing stubs missing cards, stats not counting, can’t log in to certain game modes. No response form SDS. How could it have been worse. Maybe if someone stole our money....oh wait 😎

    That happens every year though. People should know better than to buy stubs at the beginning of the year by now. They’ll fix it.

    I'm 10-10 in RS, 7 of those games are freeze offs that I refuse to sit around and wait on. So, don't ever steal a base, it freezes the game. FYI

    Handing it out for free to all GamePass users on Day One was a poor decision. SDS should have waited at least until the All Star break to do so.
    Really killing the experience for those of us who paid full freight ($85) to have it available on both PS5 and PS4 (for travel).

    Just in RS games? I’ve stolen at least a base in every events game and had no issues

    Yes, just in RS. Every freeze has been when my opponent tries to throw me out at second. The ball never leaves the catchers hand, we just stand there in time, frozen like a museum piece commemorating the game that could have been.

    100% agreed. That was a dumb move.

    As a former PS4 gamer and current Xbox gamer that paid $100 for the game, I'm not happy with this game being on Gamepass. Apparently it was MLB's idea to put the game on gamepass. Factoring in my dearly beloved RTTS is no longer considered an offline mode. The servers was doomed from the start.

    You must be new. This is one of the better launches. 18 was the worst ever. DD was unplayable for the first 2 weeks after launch. It was been 1 day.

    Was it 17 or 18 where SDS had to create a “Make it Right” free stubs or packs initiative?
