Is this game officially dead?
-
Cam someone amswer me honestly because I really don't get it. Are we not allowed to play two sports games at once? I can understand if a new baseball game came out and people jumped ship but why because Madden came out would people stop playing this for that? Can't they do both?
I haven't played Madden in years but at one point I'd play 2K, Madden and The Show and really only head to head with friends.
To the OP's point, I do think The Show has had some misses recently most notably Griffey but I think that is just part 1 of a much bigger program.

I think the way the games are built it's really hard to "keep up" in ultimate teams nowadays, so to keep at the top of both, you'd have to have a lot of free time or money on your hands.

I would assume it’s just that MLB is so grindy that you can fall behind pretty quickly. Also due to the grind you kinda lose motivation at times. At least I do, anyway.

No the game is not dead. Far from it. The real players remain and also keep in mind that now xbox, switch, and playstation all have players.

All i have seen on twitter is how this years madden is nothing but the same old trash. Just because you’re bored doesn’t mean the games dead. It’s a countdown until they start releasing the real juicy cards…we’re just beginning

It's the same BS as the console war stuff. It's this need to say one thing is better an that this one thing (madden) is the best because it made people choose it over the other thing(MLB)
It's all dumb play what makes you happy, I am playing Lego Star Wars for the next 3 days since I got all the bosses.

Did a decent madden put the nail in MLB?
No.
Its the same every year. A group of MLB The Show players bolt for the newest and shiniest Madden.
The rest of us continue to play MLB The Show.
Me, personally. I have no desire to go to Madden.
this is 100% the take
-
I still cannot figure out how to play Baseball in Madden. So I will stuck around. If I want to play NFL I will play Madden. But no desire to play football right now that's for sure. Temps have to drop at least below 100 for me to consider thinking of football.

Well, when the app and the website has been down for 24 hrs for Xbox users, that may kill things.

Just busting your balls. I actually thought it was quite funny

Planning on skipping Madden this year. I’ll be gone when 2k comes out though.

2K? Wrestling, Golf and Basketball all seem to come out around the same time.

People just like to declare things, I guess.
I still play EASHL in NHL, and this.
Now that I hit 500K in the program, I'm free to play F122, hopefully get all GT7 trophies, and try to get the super grindy Train Sim World 2 Platinum, and still play The Show when the next program comes out.
No way this game is dead in August!EDIT: I now have Gold in 3 out of 10 Super Licence tests in GT7 fwiw.

I play both and the biggest issue is time. Both games force you to stay engaged with expiring timeliness for promos. It almost becomes a job. Now if you work a real job that pays the bills you only have so much time for that second job. You have to choose one game over the other if you want to stay competitive without spending real money.

I play 2K but not MyTeam so, I’ll still play both games next month, might be a little away from MLB while I upgrade MyPlayer to 99 and get the necessary badges to play in the ProAm and The Rec with my squad.
This will happen every year, especially around this time when collections are done and most have stubs in the bank to buy cards.

One thing for sure is that the player base isn't anywhere near last years game.
