I’ll take a day off for launch, but I’ll likely be sitting outside smoking a cigar and posting here when the severs inevitably fail. Hopefully the weather will be warmer.

- Are you buying on 2/6? Yes, I am.
- If yes, which version? Digital Deluxe.
I'll be per-ordering the digital deluxe. Good value for stubs and packs. I'll be doing so with cautious optimism as I really don't expect grand improvements to game play.
However, the content and team building is fun to grind for the first few months!
-
Nope waiting for 70% off then I’ll get it. It’s just a copy and paste with a roster update. Staying away until they do a complete overhaul and go full next Gen. I’ve put in over 2000 hours each of the last 4 years. I’m at home all day.
-
If it’s free on Xbox again I might just have to bite the bullet and get one.
-
I'm thinking of taking the year off. The game has become pretty stale in the past few years and they killed the rtts mode. If they do major upgrades to that, I kught buy but not at launch. Too many issues
-
Nope.
Have to see if any real upgrades have been made in the areas of ps5/xboxX, franchise, and RTTS.
If it's more of the same with a shiny new legend, then I'll pass this year.
SDS is at a point where they should have to earn purchases from those who have been loyal customers. They're closing in on Maddenesque complacency.
-
I'm gonna wait too. If it looks like another copy paste job, this will be the first year I skip since 2015. Should've skipped last year, hardly played at all.

I'm waiting also. I'll read the forums and wait for reviews of the gameplay before I decide. Cards are cards, gameplay is totally different.

Wow. And I thought I put in a lot of time on the game. I pulled in just under 1,025 hours last year.
-
I’ve preordered almost every year but I’ll skip it this time. Doesn’t seem worth it
-
Buying on 2/6? No. I don't see the point when I can wait, watch their streams, get more information and then preorder the day before early access and still get all of the benefits.
Version - Most likely Digital Deluxe.
-
I'd probably wait and see first to make sure if it is worth it or not.
I'd probably just get the standard version anyway. -

That’s definitely the way to go. Each year I usually pre order at the last minute for early access
-
Digital Deluxe 2/6.
I do not need any more info...I have played this game franchise long enough to have a good idea of what it will be.

Digital deluxe even though no selectable uniforms for online rated or co-op
The digital deluxe version shows "1 Special Uniform Choice Pack", is that different than the other versions?
-
Yes
Digital Deluxe

I believe he means normal online rated where you use the regular 99 max roster. Can’t choose what uniform to wear in that mode

Can’t choose what uniform to wear in that modeShameful it’s 2023 SDS need to get with the times no excuses why uniforms shouldn’t be selectable. If it’s good enough to be selectable in DD online rated should have the option also.

I’ve been burned twice by poor servers on opening weekend, so I’ll just keep my days this year
I will log in at midnight, open all my packs, sell everything, then wait until the next afternoon to see what problems are popping up.

Totally understand why people wanna wait. For me, I’m a baseball fan and this has become part of my experience of a given season. It’s a lot like fantasy baseball where I pay more attention to teams and players I’d normally not care about too much. For example- I will be really interested to see how Jazz performs this year among many others. How will Matt Carpenter do in SD so I can get a great monthly card for him, who will be this years Julio Rodriguez?
I love predicting card releases based on on-field performances, as well as relevant storylines like Field of Dreams, Players being supercharged (great edition) or the All Star game. Yes I wish they’d change things up with content and improve gameplay. It may feel like a copy and paste to many, but for me, it’s a companion item to the baseball season. Plus, there’s always a chance Bryan Reynolds will get traded and I wouldn’t wanna miss the inevitable @arvcpa_MLBTS emotional meltdown. Just kidding bud, Go Bucs!
So, in short- I’ll buy the captains edition preorder and just send them my credit card hahaha.
Edit: thanks @TEXAS10PT_PSN for reminding me Chris Carpenter retired haha
