All of that would be nice, not sure if SDS will actually follow through on Barry Bonds. ( He doesn't deserve to be in the game anyway due to cheating)
So Sosa and McGuire are ok? Stop being a hater. Bonds deserves to be in the HOF, record books and the Show.

I never said that Sosa and McGuire are OK, anyone that has done steroids doesn't deserve to be in the game or in the HOF. They cheated while playing the game hence why they don't belong

You guys can argue all you want. Bonds not being in the game is entirely the fault of Bonds. As I understand it he was not even in the game while he was still playing because he was not part of the Players Union. MLB is not holding up his inclusion. SDS is not holding up his inclusion. Bonds is the hold-up. Either he does not want to be included or simply asks for too much money to obtain the likeness rights.

Expanding the RTTS career path is nice. There are some rumors it may include college. What I would like to see is a streamlined approach where the only means by which a player can improve himself is through on-the-field play quality. Linking attributes to equipment never was appropriate and so the equipment should be available up front and without stubs, just as it is in Franchise mode.
This is a slippery slope for SDS. A large chunk of RTTS players complain every year that it takes to long to get to the majors. Another chunk wants even more minor league levels and college. If they extend the time it takes they will hear plenty of complaints unless they find ways to make it more compelling. And while I agree that equipment playing such a large role seems wrong they have learned how to monetize RTTS so I can't see this changing.

@Dolenz64_XBL regarding the RTTS time to majors, the simple solution is to give the user control (via a slider) of the sensitivity to promotion (or if it’s based on attributes, how quickly they are accumulated) or something like that. User customisation… something that this game has lost sight of over the years.
I remember RTTS had buying attribute points and injury healing as a monetisation option too. Much better than forcing equipment

There is absolutely no way it'll include college. They don't have the licensing budget for both the schools and NIL.
You are assuming it will feature actual colleges/universities. My guess is the schools will feature fictious names. That avoids all the licensing issues.

Telling the truth that someone cheated the basic elements and history of the game isn't hating, and in pointing out the truth one isn't required to write a comprehensive list of all people who cheated the game in any way, shape or form.

Bonds is in the Record Books - He is listed as the HR leader on MLBs own website so it looks like he is in the record books
Bonds Deserves to be in the HOF - HOF is voted on by the Baseball Writers of America. It is they and not MLB keeping him out.
Bonds deserves to be in the Show - Nobody is purposely keeping him out. He has to want to be in the show and also not price his likeness rights so high that SDS (and Sony) feels like it is a worthy investment.

And everyone will hate it because a game featuring real MLB teams and real MiLB teams cheaping out with fake ncaa teams will please no one.

Well, it won't please you. But, you seem to have strange tastes in things.
As for me, I'll wait and see. If the next version doesn't included a way overdue upgrade to Stadium Creator, I may well opt out of it entirely. But, that's just me. I tend to only speak for myself. Never felt I was qualified to try to speak for everyone!

You may as well plan on opting out now. No need to wait until March to be disappointed.
