So with the announcement today
-
In a move that was so highly requested yet entirely unexpected from SDS...they listened and got rid of sets and seasons...so does this mean that that maybe...just maybe they might be open to the updating and upgrading of the Stadium Creator?

Wtf does one have to do with the other?

That maybe they're finally starting to listen to the player base...and there might be hope that some of the suggestions made here for the last three years have been listened to as well?

My guess is that they saw some major falloff with player engagement throughout the year, enough to worry them and get them to abandon sets and seasons. That probably had more to do with it than the surveys.
I would not get my hopes up for Stadium Creator. You might see some small changes but don't expect an overhaul. Stadium Creator itself does not sell many copies of the game nor do they have any way to monetize it (yet)

Honestly, as long as the changes mean we can tinker with foul territory, move the bullpens ourselves, and limit the amount of dead zone(when we have funky fence deigns)...it'll be a W

If SDS is smart they will stop focusing their prime attention on DD and realize there are more people who play the other modes. The offline modes carried this title for over 20 years and it carries it today. Stadium Creator is one of the modes where a relatively small number of people impact the game through their works being in the personal play collections of millions of MLB The Show customers.
Believe me, a robust new version of SC would revitalize interest in this title like no other single change. People will flock to play this title if they start seeing highly realistic versions of historic stadiums, as well as original concepts that energize creativity and excitement.

Can you provide actual data for this or are you just talking out your [censored]? Online is where their money comes from. There are people that spend thousands on stubs every year...and i think thats more important to SDS than you playing RTTS for 16 seasons or creating a stadium for offline play .

Wow there are a lot of assumptions in that post.
SDS has not released the numbers for games played in each mode in many, many years. So saying that there are more people who play the other modes is a guess or projection on your part. None of us know for sure.
A Robust Stadium creator would make a bigger difference than any other change? More than more legends in the game? More than a robust story mode in RTTS. I don't think so. I mean did MLB The Show see a big boost when the stadium creator was first rolled out? I don't remember it that way.
