    Hey, SDS team and the show players!

    I certainly do not want to come off as a complainer...But, I felt the need to submit my displeasure with the direction MLB the Show 24 has taken. When just about every core mode needs updating, it seems all efforts were pushed towards new ideas.. When the core modes are nowhere near perfect. Not to mention, the graphics are nowhere near up to par for the now current gen PS5's.

    Admittedly, I am a Franchise player and I know (From what all sports games have tailored their focus towards) it isn't the big money maker. However, I know the Franchise community has felt forgotten over the years.

    Seeing what EA College Football is accomplishing proves just what a little TLC to franchise mode could do for the game. I would love nothing more than this to be the case for The Show.

    Other than scouting/MLB Draft (Which has been FANTASTIC) there have been no significant updates in quite some time. On top of the mode itself, there has been a serious lack of face scanes added.. Which for franchise takes away the excitement of prospects making it to the bigs (at least it does for me).

    I know you all appreciate feedback and I hope you'll take this into consideration. Below I'll list some wishlist items for upcoming iterations.

    WISHLIST:

    1. Face scans!! - Prospects and new player face scans make a massive difference in realism
    2. Expansion Franchise - I have been praying for this addition for YEARS. I know I am not alone. It would make Franchise so much fun.
    3. Updated commentary/presentation for created teams - Every single year of my Franchise with a created team opening day is "The team starting in a new city".. When I have been in the city for four years..
    4. GM Mode/Owner Mode - something to make yourself feel more connected to your team.
    5. Trade deadline importance - EA's NHL does a good job at making the trade deadline mean something... This could be the case in The Show.
    6. Quirks - Quirks need to be able to be gained for players. Having a player reach 90 Overall and have ZERO quirks is silly. If we can't earn them, at least allow us to edit the quirks ourselves.
    7. Ratings adjustments - The discrepancy between franchise and real world MLB top prospects is tough. A real top prospect takes years to develop into a star player in the show. Meanwhile MLB Draft SDS prospects can be impact players immediately. A player like Fernando Tatis Jr. coming up to the bigs and dominating immediately isn't exactly possible with the ratings given to the real "Top Prospects"
    8. Some sort of conversation engine - Being able to interact with players throughout the season or during contract negotiations would be a nice addition. There isn't a whole lot of personality in the mode.

    I know it is not easy to put this game together, so thank you for everything you guys do.

    They don't have the rights to all the minor league players so face scans are out

    I totally get that aspect. But it feels like the answer is find a way to get the rights... Look at what EA College Football has done. Am I crazy to think this is something that should be strived for?

    Wishful thinking, much of what you are referencing would resemble the MYGM and or MyCareer modes from NBA2k. Been asking about a lot of this for years as well. Franchise is the Forgotten - It sucks to be a fan of the mode that made the game.

    College Football Dynasty is a mess; don't put it on a pedestal. This from someone who LIVED the game from 2002 until about 2011, Athlon annuals to name the rosters and all.

    The recruiting pool is copy/paste with no real "generational" prospects.

    The recruits are hilariously unrealistic "demographically."

    Offseason progression is a mystery. It doesn't tell how much a player progressed, so if you didn't write down the previous OVR, sorry.

    Players "progress" randomly, spending points to upgrade ability tiers instead of attributes -- or NOT. Who knows?

    An entire coaching focus is dedicated to offseason progression, but it seems to have NO EFFECT WHATSOEVER on offseason progression.

    I could go on...but I was sorely disappointed in the game. It benefits from I'm-not-Madden privilege, but Dynasty has proven to be an underwhelming, monotonous disappointment.

    I'll give 26 a shot, but my expectations have been severely nerfed.
