    It’s just you and failing to realize this is a tech. You’re too busy trying to equate it to the final product

    nah not at all and you shouldn't be making assumptions - many people probably feel the same - i just think its a very poor update - lipstick on a pig - by all means you can buy the deluxe, do what you want - this game is a big joke these days - i'll still play once in a blue moon to blow off some steam but my point still stands

    see you in April

    ive been playing this game since sammy sosa was on the cover - probably longer than you - i know you are a fan boy - it's obvious - big shocker to you and your buddies that not everyone is going to agree with the "i love this game" stance

    haters of this game live on this forum and twitter yall aint going anywhere

    lol and clearly guys like you too who just hate to hear an opinion the opposite of their own

    like I said see you in April

    you love to repeat yourself - i can easily do the same - maybe you should join a discord group where you can find friends who all love this game, and you can talk about how great this game is, and how much you love to play it, each year and every year

    lol Im in the discord/forums/reddit come on over and spend some more time hating on a game to keep playing year round

    i bet you are lol - it explains so much as to why you are the way you are - invisible keyboard warrior on the net - big man !!!!

    still purchasing explains so much as to why you are the way you are

    let's just be real for a moment - you're a gimp, trying to catch a rise out of people - just remember you are invisible on the internet - your words mean nothing - your voice is as easy as a block away and you can try to tickle someone else with your internet garbage

    Honestly bud just block him already. Is he adding quality to your day....no then what's the point. He wont see your point you wont see his. The game feels basically the same as it did in 20. I skipped 21. Played about 10 games of this tech test.

    Here are the good and bad parts.

    • The game looks beautiful ps5 on a monitor is gorgeous.

    • It's always great to build a team of your favorite players

    • Hitting perfect perfect sounds great.

    Bad parts

    • 3 laggy games not being the home team still sucks.
    • pitching is still and will always be random
    • hitting can still be random.

    This year with it open to everyone not really sure why they left it in.

    Easily allows fans to identify what footage is from the Tech Test vs Retail Release of the game.

    and that watermarking with your username all over the screen - who thought this was a good idea? just brutal

    standard operating procedure for game testing.

    was that last years vibe? i remember we had the alpha test there wasn't anything like this

    Yup. It was there last year and the year before

    Can you address server issues? I appreciate that you answer certain questions and I understand you all are doing your best, hence the whole reason for this tech test.

    But if last year was any indication and thus far with Co-op it seems to be a big problem, is it reasonable to assume that the servers will be a a major issue come launch time?

    You guys can do better
    With everything. From the menu all the way down to the 5 errors in the 1st inning of my 1st event…The gameplay feels worse than mlbts21.

    Stop calling us out 😆

    Only reason I will most likely buy it when it goes on sale is because my 7year old played the tech test with me and immediately is excited for it to come out. I'm just indirectly living through his naive eyes for now 😢

    if they're having server issues now; do you really think they can fix it in a little over a month?

    Maybe that’s why they’re having a tech test? To sort out the issues NOW instead of after launch.

    They had a “tech test” last year and the servers were dog sht and continue to be dog sht. This game needs a major overhaul in many areas that SDS refuses to do. I’ve played a little of the tech test and can’t say I’m excited to run out and buy it this year that’s for sure.

    I feel this is the same as TS21. I will not pre-order. Probably will try to be smart and wait a few months for gameplay reviews and from what I’ll see myself from twitch streams to make a decision. I believe SDS will probably make major changes by TS23 anyway.

    I know when I get a perfect/perfect against the CPU, I don’t get the crack of the bat sound. I do in moments but not in conquest or play vs CPU.
