Better MP Stability
-
I feel like we run a 50% of getting disconnected every time we try to play a 2v2/3v3 co-op or head-to-head custom league game.
Nothing is more demoralizing than losing 6 innings of dramatic gameplay and have to replay. Better server stability aside, sometimes internet connection issues are inevitable - why not add the ability to rejoin/reconnect to a server? It's not like baseball is a rapid pace game, a reconnect timer could be implemented similar to what is done when a controller disconnects. Or what if a MP game could be saved/autosaved so everyone can reconnect and continue where they left off?We are checking our internet connections, trying to stick with the game since it's so much fun (when it works) - but having whole games wiped is brutal. Not sure it is entirely a connection issue, as certain actions seem to trigger disconnects as well - i.e. calling timeout and other animations. Anyway - hoping someone hears me and some safeguards are considered. We all want to sink more time into this game.
BONUS - Why can't we create private lobbies for co-op games like we can for home run derby? Right now we get 6 friends and pick random settings, go "1-2-3-go" and hope it finds each other immediately. Usually works, but not always.
Also, why can't we use diamond dynasty custom teams along with DD rosters in custom leagues? So close to having the perfect fantasy baseball league setup...

This is exactly why I don't spend any time with the online component of this game. It's bad enough dealing with cheating morons. So you build your own league with guys you trust, only to have the game itself destroy your experience because of server inadequacies. I don't have that kind of time to waste.

The Doctor has diagnosed the situation nicely

Over half my losses are freeze offs and disconnects. I dont know how to freeze off but lot of my wins are disconnects. Online is meaningless dribble.Very disappointing because I want to be a YouTube hero too,waaaaaah !

Dopey ,Sneezy and Grumpy over on YouTube never get in a freeze off when doing their stubb saleman shows?

It's very disappointing. The custom leagues have a ton of potential, and the co-op games are a blast with friends. As commissioner I can at least reset games that don't finish but award wins/losses, but having to replay games isn't fun...

Online gameplay was much better in the olden days when you could set up your own game servers. I guess corporations need for total control of everything has ruined all that.
What's kind of funny to me is that the Creators that I've followed say that The Show is the best sports game out there. Really? This is really as good as it gets?

Most likely it is,but think whatcould be achieved with this product if i were spun off into a realistic type game called Baseball Uncheesed!
-
Kind of a tease right now with the online/co-op options. It's actually crazy more sports games aren't offering complete online leagues with friends. MLB 22 is a step closer, but come on man - let us play franchise or custom team leagues with friends!
