    People be like "Ea and 2K made great baseball games 15 years ago"

    EA and 2K today are much different than their 15 years ago counterparts.

    it may clear up a lot of the toxicity on these forums though, so that might not be a bad thing.

    True, grass is always greener on the other side, so proving the grass is actually just a bunch of dried up dust would help prove how good SDS actually is.

    bingo

    I get what your saying, but don’t act like SDS is the only company that has baseball on point. 2k was bad. But EA mvp baseball was great during that time so imagine how it would be now, no? Think about how far things have come since then..

    wasnt great will never forget the Lefty HR glitch in 04

    Alright i forgot about that lol but MVP was still better than 2k in my opinion. MVP 05 was the game I loved most. Think about how far gaming has coming since then. And heck I doubt they patched or had updates that much back then.. maybe even at all. Cant say if they did bc I didn’t have internet to play back then, but now patches/updates are the new norm when the game first drops.

    2K baseball was a joke. The Show blew them out of the water.

    EA College Baseball was amazing. I'll be cranking that up on PS5 given the backward compatibility.

    2k can’t even make a good basketball game when’s that’s all they’re supposed to do so how in the world are they going to make a baseball game that they haven’t worked on in over 6 years?

    2k made about 7 terrible baseball games in a row before finally giving up. The vast superiority of the sony baseball game was a huge selling point between about '08-'12. That along with exploding 360's...

    No it won’t. People are always going to complain. 90% of the complaints on here are from people who lose and think they’re entitled to a win. It’s hard to take a majority of this forum seriously when they’re complaining that their pitches aren’t landing on dots or their opponent hit a home run with Joey Gallo on a ball that wasn’t squared up. It’s getting absurd the amount of tears shed on this forum from people who just aren’t as good as they think they are.

    last year and even this year people wanted them to implement a skill gap to prevent "little billy" from winning, so they did, and now everyone's complaining because they can't win. It truly is a magical time we live in.

    I lost a game last night that I should’ve won. Tied 2-2 in the 10th. I threw a cutter that I aimed inside on Trout, but mistimed it. Ball stayed over the played until Trout knocked it to the next county. I forgot to come on here and say the game cheated me...but that’s only because it didn’t and I screwed up.

    got not problem with punishing for a bad release but don't punish a good one especially if the pitcher has high control, happens way to often i aim for a corner and leave it over the plate on a good release

    You obviously haven’t played 2k20, it’s [censored] way worse then this. NBA 2k20 is easily the best sports game out and it puts MLB to sleep in every way especially game modes

    2k is the most criminal company in gaming. Anyone that gives that company a dime is a sucker. **** 2k.

    2k basketball is designed to rip people off. **** 2k and their ****** packs that they force people to buy.

    Bumping a post 5 months later to prove what point? Everyone I know that devotes their time to 2k is essentially a junkie that likes being taken advantage off.

    2k is a trash company. How about just GTFO? If anyone on here promotes 2k, I immediately cant take them serious.

    2k rips their customer base off worse than any company in all of gaming. Their “Myteam” model is the definition of insanity.

    **** 2k.

    Don't kill me for saying this but I like the locker code system they use

    That’s fine man. But they put 20 different versions of every card out. They tank people’s value in cards a week after they release. Their system forces you to buy packs.

    In a few years there will be a documentary on how criminal this era of gaming is with micro transactions, and 2k will have a whole chapter in it.

    SDS is the only sports game developer that does right by their community.

    Spot on man. The gameplay does [censored] me off on a daily basis in the show.. but SDS at least is more than generous with helping players who don’t spend money compete. You get all the lightning cards just by playing this year. Babe Ruth, all the tops now cards. The henchmen and inning bosses. No other sports game comes anywhere close to being that great with free content.

    Why would you bump up a post from 5 months ago?

    Anyway, the last 2K baseball game was MLB 2K13 and you could read a review for it here.

    The series has been dead for 7 years and was never great to begin with. I don't understand why people want that franchise back besides just having competition to keep SDS honest. There is little to no chance they would actually produce anything better than what is already offered.

    #1 the 2K pitching was by far the most fun method of pitching, sure this is probably an opinion, but each pitch having its own Motion to throw is a lot more fun than either up down or pushing a button.

    #2 i see a lot of 2k bashing on here is almost exclusively directed at the card collector mode, and that is for good reason, but for other modes like MyLeague and Franchise, with customizations, 2K is better, again that is a fact. When talking about the current state of of 2K, namely NBA. 2K has continued to address and improve MyLeage and MyPlayer where SDS have largely ignored it in favor of DD, even Rebranding and relocating was half baked this year and nowhere close to being on par with how it is done in 2K. Again, this is a fact.

    Gameplay we only have old 2k game play to go off of, there were years i favored 2k over the show, namely for pitching and analog hitting, this is OPINION and personal preference. Who knows where 2k would be with game play had they continued. I do know that i enjoy playing NBA2k despite the fact that i dont watch the NBA. So that says a little something about their ability to make a game.

    DD is in my Opinion the best card collection mode of all of the ones i have played, but that is because that is where SDS concentrates the majority of thier time and effort. Most of us here play it, so its not a bad thing, but it does mean they have lagged behind in ingenuity for other game modes.

    There are a lot of people passing off opinions as facts these days. And even worse a lot of people getting offended about people having a different opinion.

    I welcome 2k or EA making a baseball game, having other options is a good thing, monopolies are bad, an competition is a really good thing. It should only make SDS start looking at addressing issues they have largely ignored. Worst case scenario you have 1 game for DD and one game for other modes.

    This game mode is fun and has a lot going for it... but the H2H experience is an absolute joke. I hope H2H gets better next year, because the game could be great if the H2H end of it was better.
