PXP from Co-op
-
Why does MLB The Show 2023 full release not have Co-op PXP?
During the MLB The Show 2023 tech test, co-op provided PXP. Now, I will note that it didn't always work perfectly - sometimes 3/3 folks received PXP, sometimes 2/3, from what we saw just over three games; however, if you take those 3 games multiplied by the 3 players, you have 9 instances of potential PXP. 8/9 times, it worked. That's a pretty good result, but it seems that since sometimes it doesn't work, the decision was to kill it entirely. I don't think that is a solution the community would agree with
Adding ranked rewards, innings rewards, and returning to 9 innings were all great improvements from 2022; however, the lack of PXP and freezes makes co-op still the most fun game mode but also the least rewarding for your time

I think part of SDS concern - or at least some of the community's concern - is "boosting" - having your teammate's get PXP for you
A solution could be that you only earn PXP for your own pitching and at bats. That is super penalizing, but if we can get 1/2 or 1/3 PXP, that is better than 0 PXP. It should, however, work like BR where you can earn PXP even if you don't own the card

People who spend the little time they have available to play this game on co-op are treated as second hand citizens.

Ranked Co-Op should get PXP, understandable if unranked doesn't. With Unranked let us make custom matches with our friends, let us enjoy the game for 2v2 (4 friends)

Yea co op could ad a lot more. It's frustrating that parallel cards are also not considered in co op. They added ranked but everything is still pretty much bare bones, just with the ranked system slapped over top of it. Its only worth playing because its a fun time with friends, but they have a chance to do so much more. I wish it was like the 2k pro am scene.
