SDS making EA customer service look top tier.

It’s just over exaggerations to the maximum level. Guys who are clueless you can see game histories claiming they were walked 7 straight times. 7 straight balls maybe, and even that’s a stretch. But I got 1,000,000 stubs for anyone that shows me SEVEN STRAIGHT WALKS against the CPU on rookie.

You're on. Maybe I'll test this tonight. I don't think seven will happen, but four maybe.
And a better bet -- no more than 1-3 middle-middle fastballs the entire game.
Look up what the strategy guide says about rookie hitting difficulty in-game.

I wasn't going to get the game this year, but they suckered me in because I'm a Mariners fan and I wanted to be able to play in the Kingdome.
I'm not bothered by the CPU pitching on veteran because it's making me a more patient hitter. I was doing better in BR because of it. I also think the TA format is much better, and I feel like I'm actually using cards instead of just griding out their PXP.
That said, there are way more negatives, as everyone has mentioned. The two-way glitch being present is inexcusable after they fixed it last year. It makes playing online no fun.
The final straw for me is locking cards behind billboards. Every other company who uses codes plasters them all over their social media and in the game, but not SDS. I can decide if I want to grind for or buy every card in the game, except for those 3. That's ridiculous to me. Whoever thought of that needs to be fired. There's no rhyme or reason to it, and SDS has been silent on it except for asking people if they scanned the QR code. I know it's not a huge deal right now, but it's a horrible practice to start and it makes me wonder what else they'll do like this later in the year.
I've played the Show every year it has been out. Maybe I'll play some franchise this year, but I'm finally out on DD. Their unresponsiveness, laziness, and ethics have soured me on the game. This is how you alienate long time players and drive them away. Well done, SDS.
I'm thinking every team will get the billboard treatment, which means i will have 28 teams (i got Cortes, and Taylor before they were taken down) that i can't complete no matter what i do and as someone who likes to collect every card that already has me wondering if this year is even worth it.

Imagine the backlash they would get if they were to do this billboard [censored] later in the season and put out a 99 George Brett or something that you could only get if you physically scanned a billboard in Kansas City?

It's outrageous, what about the people who play in other countries? Locking cards behind a paywall is one thing but saying no you can't get that card because you don't live in that city is unthinkable in my opinion.

Well they just posted this on X. I hope this is a fix to a lot of things, the Switch issue first among them.
Server maintenance for #MLBTheShow 24 at 4 AM PT on 3/26/2024.
Please complete all games prior to that time.
Thank you.

Its not even other countries (although thats me), what about fans that live outside of cities?
But as I said before I'll wait a month and see if they dont find a way to get us these cards in other ways.
Some things need immediate attention (switch, late release bug, 2 way bug, pinpoint bug) others (like the exp cap and this issue) can take a wait and see approach and evaluate once we know the full picture. -

The pack luck is the worst it’s ever been I pulled 1 diamond so far in almost 200 packs. Switch is completely broken pitching is broken they let bots in on Xbox with no penalty. Its a joke at this point

Unfortunately, I wouldn't hold my breath. Normally if they're fixing something they announce a patch not server maintenance.
Especially since they've done a few server maintenances since Early Release.
But I hope I am wrong.

Only thing I’ve seen a dev confirm is roster update bug in the app getting fixed. Just hoping for the best. If this isn’t it I don’t even know at this point.

Because we don’t have these issues you all cry about non stop? If this was a problem “Mr I have a rock” on every post last year why did you buy the game again?

Would be cool to actually be able to get into DD without game crashing before can even complete the tutorial moment. Needs to get fixed but assuming SDS doesn't give a rats ***

It's unconscionable how many issues/bugs this game has right now. This is a CTRL + C, CTRL + V from the past 3 years (at minimum). This should be a finished product by now because we've been Alpha, Beta, and Gamma testing this version of the game since at least 2021. It's not like they introduced some groundbreaking new features that would cause so many issues for folks.
I hate modern day gaming. More effort is put into monetizing everything rather than putting out a decent product. And clearly, there was virtually no effort put into this game other than slapping on a fresh coat of paint to the user interface that could burn someone's retinas.

@fubar2k7 what do mean by, "We don't have these issues"? Everyone got the same version of the game.

I don’t have a problem with the pitching in my mini season games or on conquest. I don’t think @DeleteyourTTVBTW_MLBTS is either since he put up a million stubs.

@DeleteyourTTVBTW I have 4 before no joke. It was during a showdown too so I just let it ride

I'm not sure what exactly you mean, the issue is quite specific. CPU rookie/vet hitting difficulty throws far more balls than it should, making the grind frustrating. It's less bad on all star, but still present. I never have and never will play the CPU on HoF or Legend.
Saying you "don't have a problem" with the pitching is not the same as saying it's not bugged/broken.
All with respect.
