You guys are ridiculous. The OP is completely right. Grow up a bit and look at the big picture. Its a video game. Simple as that.
It is a video game. That I paid a lot of money for. And it does not work. Name me one industry that releases a defective product and expects their customers to be ok with it.
Literally everyone. Apple, SONY, Microsoft, etc etc etc.. It takes time to get tech completely right first try. When they fix things in a couple days I hope you feel silly. You act like they're not doing anything. Be patient or go get your 80 dollars back. Quit acting like 80 dollars is going to bankrupt you. Its 80 dollars
I won't feel silly. Because if it takes them a couple of days it will have been a week plus a couple of days which is awful. If you cannot release the product in a working condition, then you should not release the product. They have an entire team dedicated to making sure that this does not happen. They failed. There is no excuse for releasing a defective product. 80 dollars is a lot of money to some of us. We should not have to "be patient" to get what we paid for.
Did you get the free packs and stubs that came with pre order? B/c that has value as well. Did you complain when you happily ripped them open, or when you spent the stubs on more packs or players?
Hell no you didn't b/c it benefitted you but now servers are down off and on for less than a week it's all bout torches andlolgot chforks b/c it doesn't benefit you! Exact definition of Entitled!
This is a pretty weird post lol...honestly makes no sense...you can't be entitled because you want what you paid for lol
Point was he used $80 he paid for game as a reference and i pointed out that he technically has already got part of his money worth fronm in game content. Yes it would be nice to use it on consistant basis of course, but he words it like got got completely ripped off which isn't the case.
Ok got ya..the other post def didn't get this point across lol
Well it isn't the case YET as long as they straighten things out.
As i said before the consumer should not have to be patient though..it really isn't right that the game is messed up. -

Its sad how many entitled whiny kids there are commenting on this game. This is a great game. Are the servers being [censored]? Yes....Were there thousands upon thousands of new players playing the game cause its on a new system? Yes. There are very few titles that dont have crappy online servers the first month of its release. Just look at COD servers as an example. All I see is complaining on this board.
Imagine whining about whining...
I went to the store today and I wanted a steak, they gave me chicken instead. So, I should be happy, right?!?! I mean I didn't get what I or others paid for... but we should all just be happy?
Man, ignorance IS bliss...Imagine whining about someone whining about whining
Imagine whining about someone whining about someone whining...
It's a no win anyway you slice it.
Can you name me any place where you would go that you would be okay with getting a product you didn't ask for?
Do you go to the grocery store on a vegan diet and get a steak? Maybe order a pizza and get just the crust?
Lmao its ridiculous and so is your comment.I would go to another place of business or request my money back. Looks like your options are RBI Baseball or a new hobby ️.
You guys refuse to look at the totality of the situation. Has this small time first party studio ever developed a game for another console? No they have not. Have they ever had to prepare a server structure for this many people and across a new platform? That would be a no as well. They were put in a position to do something they've never done before during a global pandemic.
Perspective is key here. The game works, the servers at times have worked. To fix the issues they have to take them down. There is a lot in-store and the game cycle is just beginning. They can take all the time they need to get them working for all I care. Just like in previous years they'll get everything going right and this will be an afterthought.
First, if you are a playstation player, you are screwed because you can't get your money back so that is wrong. Second, they are not a small time studio. They are a AAA developer. Third, if the pandemic or cross platform would have made things too difficult they should have delayed or canceled the game. Four, they have an entire QA team that is supposed to detect issues prior to launch. Fifth, the game does not work. There are whole modes that are broken to the point of being unplayable and the servers only work when everyone it at work. I don't understand this concept of letting a company get away with scamming their customers and releasing a defective product that is not fixed a week later. If you have to take the game down to fix it, then do it.
Jesus man find a period and some sentence structure. I'm not going to address the totality of the post because you obviously missed the part where MLB forced Sony and SDS to develop the game for Xbox. They had no say, because Sony and SDS don't have a full license for MLB. I'm sure Sony wasn't aware Xbox would be cute and announce it was going to gamepass a week before launch either.
SDS is first party studio for Sony, the only reason they've been able to make the game for this long (remember the MLB 2k days and the kids of MVP Baseball). You can run stress tests at much as you want. This is something they've never done before and they are working on it.
SDS had a say on whether they released the game or delayed it, due to MLB forcing them to make it cross platform.
If SDS were unsure of whether they could meet the new requirements, then they should have delayed it. This is basic project management.

Hey look, at the moment I am just going to be patient and assume most of the issues we are seeing in game is server/infrastructure related. I too am a lifetime gamer, but I also work as a software analyst in the QA dept and know how the industry operates. If this is still an issue in May, then I will join the ranks and demand a refund and call a spade a spade.
However i'm not going to come on here and act like a spoiled kid who got his toy taken away. -

Lmao its ridiculous and so is your comment.Lmao how is my comment ridiculous but yours isn't..it's the same principle...which you agreed with in the begining of your post lol
I see you didn't answer my question.
Do you go to a pizza place, order a pizza and are happy with ONLY the crust? Go to a grocery store and want a steak but they give you chicken instead?!?!
Name me any place where you are happy with receiving nothing you paid for...
THAT is why your comment is ridiculous.
These people deserve to complain and get what they paid for, matter of fact, they PAID for the right to do so.That's where your wrong. It's a bad comparison. When you got the wrong thing at a restaurant you are going to eat it within your time at that restaurant. This game is supposed to last for a whole year. I pay the same amount in internet a month as I do for this game in an entire year Rent per month is substantially greater than the price of this game in the year. The problem is expecting $100 worth of satisfaction in a week when this game is supposed to give you $100 worth of satisfaction in a year. Hell I wish video games were monthly subscriptions instead of a 1 time price just to avoid the ridiculous mindset that you didn't get your money's worth after a week.

Lmao, there is... it's called Game Pass for Xbox, where this game also released the first week. Your point is now moot. So where I paid 100 for a game, didn't get the early release due to issues with the game, have waited a week to get it fixed and still aren't using the product I paid for... while people on GAME PASS got it for basically free.
It's a no win and anyone coming to the rescue of this disaster is ridiculous. -

Yes, but if they cannot meet the deadline, they delay, hence why this year's release was already delayed...heck they even had a valid excuse this year (cross platform)!

80 dollars is alot to everyone, myself included. The game is not defective. I'm sorry you can't find other meaningful things to fill your time until they straighten out the servers. As you live your life you may have to wait for things you want. Whether or not you already paid for them. You have the right just like anyone else to voice ypur opinion and get your money back. Please do, this community will be better without the [censored] poor attitude
Well I cannot get my money back because that is not how the refund policy works. The game is defective because whole modes do not work as intended. And in life I do not have to wait generally after I receive the product I paid for. But if you want to defend this kind of behavior fine. I just hope you never complain about any company releasing broken products ever.
I won't I'll get my money back....

Coming to the rescue, what are you talking about. I think we are just asking you guys to have some perspective. You aren't ordering a pizza dude, apples and oranges. The guy who said it's $100 for a year is also wrong, it's $100 for as long as you own a console. This game could last you 10 years if you didn't care about getting the new one every year. You can fire up mlb15 right now and play. Give me a freakin break.

Correct, delayed as far as they could already... so you agree, thanks. for all we know they have to pay a fine to MLB for everyday it is delayed.

I agree. I don't like the server issues, who does. It needs to be fixed ASAP. I just think coming on here and demanding refunds and lawsuits is equally as ridiculous as SDS not having it together. I also think paying extra just for early access is stupid too. Having a head start on everyone else doesn't give you an advantage, and if it does, it might last a week. Anyone who has ever played this game at launch before saw this coming a mile away. The complaints about RTTS at least have some merit. Anyone who didn't see the server issues coming was kidding themselves from the start.

Thst people spent money on
They will get thier money's worth guaranteed! If they don't it will be thier own fault just takes patience.
This is the attitude that allows companies to have bad practices. If this was the first time this has happened, I would say this is bad but things will get better but this is as yearly as the game itself. That's why people are upset and they have every right to be upset. It's also a 2 way street, no one is saying you need to come into the threads and talk about how people are complaining. Just move along, it'll all work out soon and there won't be as many complainers, you just have to have patience.

I can’t fathom the lunacy for someone to make excuses for a corporation in this manner. A corporation that I can just about guarantee ran a cost analysis for this very situation and decided upon “should be fine” to ensure the most profit, because they already have our money and even better for them, some individuals will even defend them in a situation like this.
And above all else, if my mentality leads more to pitchforks than understanding it’s because the way the situation is currently being handled. If SDS was being open and transparent I’d feel better about the situation.
It’s not hard to say, (x) is the issue, we’re trying (y), (z) is our reasonable expectation and time frame, we’ll let you know if it changes.
As it stands we’ve gotten a couple tweets that have been carefully worded to minimize the severity of the issue, while they are promoting DoubleXP weekend which seems like it has no chance of working.You say entitled...I’m not sure you understand what that word means. I say discerning and intelligent, because I’m not sure how expecting a product you purchase to work would be considered looking for special treatment.

It happens every year. Soon someone will file an Online Petition and try to get everyone to go sign. It is pointless though. They won't get anywhere.
Great Points all around but not everyone wanted a head start, some just wanted to play.
I played Warzone till January and literally didn't touch my console till Friday April 16th when I pre-ordered so I could play MLBTS.
And if anyone thinks this is the end of Server Errors, Program Errors or Event Problems, you don't really know MLBTS.
All good because when it works properly, It is great Baseball!!!

People are entitled to be upset when they pay AAA price for a game that releases with issues that should have been sorted pre-early release, definitely should have been sorted pre-release, and here we are post-release and still tons of issues. Not to mention some of the idiotic changes they made to the game system.
I've seen indie development teams with a micro fraction of their budget do a better job.
Really then what is Activision and Treyarch's or Bethesdas excuses when their servers dont work the first month?
