Imagine doing damage control for a billion dollar company. For free.
Imagine thinking that any opinion other than your own must be bought and paid for.

Do you not know how to read?

@chucky97___ of course you want to play with your friend and have fun, but why would you want to keep playing the same teams over and over with everyone using real 99’s? That’s boring as hell.
-
@Debow13 From the sounds of it, you can use every card in the game in Co-op, why not try out every card in the game fir some trial runs without having to play BR, That way you know if you'll like a certain card in the future.

Who care if it’s pay to win or not

I agree it’s not pay to win. I spend money and suck.
However co-op using real 99’s isn’t fun.
Play with your team just liked ranked. It’s the whole point of the mode, not to with 99’s.but co op isnt like ranked, co op in my opinion should be a fun mode. honestly co op should be capped at all star, create a fun mode for those who just want to play with friends.
Co-op (when working) is my personal favorite H2H mode, I’ve got a couple friends I hop on with and it’s just pure fun, win or lose.

I just can’t spend 20 hours a day on the game to “grind” for decent cards. You either buy them because you work so much or you don’t work and you can spend every waking hour playing. No in between in my opinion
-
@chucky97___ you’re suppose to be picking from the cards on your team though. That was the purpose of the mode. Not for every card. And again I said it’s playing the same team over and over using real 99’s

It's not pay to win, hasn't been in a long time, now it's play to win.....pretty much everyone, including myself has a full line up of diamonds 5 days after release. All you need to do is put a little time in. Personally I liked it better when you had to grind with bronze and silvers to unlock golds and diamonds but what do I know. I do wish ranked seasons had a cap limit on rosters like some events do, it would add more strategy and make managing your line up mean something.

@Dookie-Possum 20 hours a day on the game for decent cards? That’s a reach.
-
@chucky97___ while I agree with you, you are going to get crushed for this. Over the past few years the forum has turned into pretty much an entitled whine fest. Years ago this was a good place to come for tips and strategies etc. Those days are pretty much gone.

I play maybe 4 hour during the week TOTAL, then I’m able to play for maybe 8 hours TOTAL during the weekend. I finished ranked program, all other programs, maxed out TA, and have gotten all player rewards from events, and haven’t spent a dime in game. The idea that you have to play 20 hours a day to earn everything in the game is ridiculous.

This. I have a newborn which drastically cut down my time to play
I maybe get a couple hours a day. If you know how to grind efficiently, you can have everything you mentioned done
I have TA done, all other programs done, completed the first event, nearing WS, completed the BR program up to the flawless pack and up to 13 wins on the new event
Admittedly, I’ve gone 10-0 already so having skill definitely helps you progress faster but the idea that you have to put in an insane amount of hours daily to complete things just isn’t the case for the vast majority of people on this forum

I’m pretty average, hover around 700 in ranked, can’t go flawless to save my life lmfao but even with my average skills, I’ve completed everything I need to with 9 days to spare. I have a wife and a child at home and try not to impede on OUR time and still able to complete everything. On games like Madden, I lose interest quickly bc I don’t spend crazy money and I don’t have a ton of time to grind, so my team is leaps and bounds behind after a few weeks. Never have that issue with this game

#turnoffcrossplaythats how co op should be, imo

I'll continue to stand on my stance. MLB 19 and 20 this place was amazing, MLB 21 created a handout "give me this and give me that" I always hate the "i cant spend time on this game its not fair"
-
@chucky97___ said in this game isn't pay to win:
This community has gotten so annoying with the constant " i deserve this or i deserve that" MLB 21 did a number on this community, we got almost everything in 21 for doing little amounts of work. I'm not saying all good cards should be in packs but honestly all good cards shouldn't be free either. IN 21 Verlander, Degrom, Ryan etc, were all free and that game became unbearble to play seeing the same pitcher over and over again. As for the pay to win part, Any casual player can spend loads of money on this game and still be a barely above 500 player. Stop with the madden and 2k comparisons becuase as someone who plays both of those games, this game is nothing like those at all, were getting 30 free diamonds in TA Chapter 2 next week, patience people, you cant say you want a power creep and then complain you can't get instant good cards thats not how it works. As for the C0-Op glitch, keep it in the game, might encourage more people to try it out, I for one have never played co-op but it sounds interesting using actual 99's. I'm not trying to tell anyone how to feel but this cycle of constant whining a month into every year of MLB the Show has got to stop, this forum has turned into a complete crying line, or calling for devs to be fired over mistakes. My goodness people relax.
You don't think its a bit ridiculous that basically all new cards so far have been locked behind a 40k paywall that you have a chance of actually pulling the high rated card you want instead of maybe a program of some sort where you actually have to put in some sort of effort to get a decent player?? nevermind the fact that this game has had many major glaring issues freeze offs being the main one for YEARS without fixes?? the fact that we are sitting here defending a multi-million dollar company when they have so many silly and stupid issues like this is beyond me. nevermind the fact the biggest one yet everyone gets their account fkn wiped? it'd be one thing if they responded quickly and or mentioned anything about it other than one dev recommending a "fix" that the community figured out before they even realized it was a problem? now eight hours later we get a tweet sds is aware its all fine and dandy its not especially people like me that has been playing this game for years expecting a decent product and having to deal with bugs like games disconnecting for no reason the stupid p2p desyncs or whatever you wanna call that bs when the game lags and the play is cooked on the field last year its the two way player glitches every year its something new not even mentioning the all the other little things that will never get fixed like pitches counts not being accurately represented on rtts after getting on base which i have personally noticed has been in this fkn game for YEARS and drives me insane. can't stand ppl defending this company and trying to make people look stupid or "impatient" or "crying" for voicing their frustrations with this game. it wouldn't be so bad if there was any other option but sadly there's not the show owns this market and I don't that will ever change. This game might not be "P2W" but its definitely not play to win or have any sort of enjoyment past maybe pulling mike trout out of a pack which is what got me hooked in the first place those were better times im headed back to ps3 mlb2k11 anyone wanna hop on with me?
-
@Justillien If you played MLB 21 you'd understand how insane the free cards were that year, they were basically handing out free 99's that were amazing, it made playing the game miserable escepically facing outlier every single game. Is that what you want?
-
@Justillien its one thing to voice frustrations, its another to constantly complain and whie, if you dislike the product dont buy it, its people like you that berrade the game all year, say " im done with this game for good", then buy the game next year and sit around complain on a community forum that has been in the past meant to be a good place for helpful insight,now its just people demanding and making unreasonable statements.

A lot of lying/underselling of hours played in this thread…
