My advice to stadium creator fans like myself

Those are some pretty hot takes. So instead of a quick fix and letting us still use the creator, they should've just deleted stadium creator all together so no one could use it? Like @NiteLordz_PSN said, if you don't update the game, you can't use the online features. Also, disabling created stadiums online until there's a fix? They did that once this year and everyone got upset so they should've done it again? I'm disappointed there hasn't been anything done this year with SC but you said it yourself, it's a small niche, DD makes them the money, and they probably don't have the staff to keep up with it or even look at it. Doesn't mean they should just get rid of it completely since there are people that enjoy it.

SDS has ensured there is nothing left but hot takes. SDS has totally mismanaged Stadium Creator, Logo Editor, and the Custom Uniforms, and has mismanaged them for years. There was a line in a Brad Pitt baseball movie where Pitt's character asked, "Would you rather be shot in the knee or the head?" I'll tone it down myself. Would you rather be shot dead or starved to death?
Long term malice of inaction is far more cruel to customers than is a quick decision to abolish something that the company who made it determines they can no longer support. Except the actual situation is uglier than even that. SDS did devote assets this year to SC twice -- once to fix the bug MLB 25 caused with vault operation, and a second time trying to stop customers from moving the baseline and backstop walls. They could have devoted the same resources to link movement of baseline and backstop walls to the same code that prevents online use of custom stadiums when the outfield wall panels are moved.
What we have with SC is the ultimate bait and switch job and it stinks. Just enough attention to SC to whet appetites and then neglect or even worse deliberate degradation to destroy whatever goodwill ever developed. Yep, it's a hot mess alright. But, it has been SDS that made this a hot mess.

Then turn the game off. But don't say just give it the axe because you're upset. Let others enjoy using what we have. Hopefully we'll get updates in the future, who knows. But to say to just remove everything is ridiculous.

You have a hard time with reality. I'm not the one ignoring the mode. You seem emotionally attached to defending SDS even after they fumbled a gift. This has nothing to do with me being angry at SDS. It has everything to do with SDS engaging in malicious actions designed to stymie customer happiness.

This is genuinely unhinged lmao

Tell me you don't get it without telling me you don't get it lolWhat I get is that you created your account here and posted four total times in this entire community forum-- all a day ago -- and all four of your posts have essentially defended SDS's actions, and attempted to call out angry customers who don't like having available options taken away from them, especially when the reason offered by SDS for doing so is nonsensical.
Some of us here have worked professionally with SDS over four years to try to convince SDS to devote relatively minimal attention to Stadium Creator in ways that would be easy to implement, but have a profoundly positive impact on customer satisfaction. But, SDS refused to do any of it. Then a few months ago we learn that one of these earnest requests has been part of the SC code the whole time but SDS chose to lock it out by layering additional code into SC to block its use.
Then, when that is revealed, vice let customers have that option in return for simply keeping stadiums so modified off online play, by using the existing code for outfield walls, SDS instead seeks to bar the expanded customer utilization.
And all this seems to be just peachy fine with you!
Well, in your grand total of one day and four posts here, that's a mighty interesting conclusion to defend SDS that you have embarked on.

I just wanna reiterate something I have said elsewhere. This is not some hidden feature from us. It was a bug. Moving outfield walls wasn't perfect. You can very easily get walls stuck, cause multiple visual glitches, and have gameplay cameras be affected by location of walls and props. To say it is a feature is to say SDS actually coded in edited walls that worked in normal gameplay. That is very, very far from the case here, and SDS had to patch it because of it.

I've actually been on the forums for a few years. Just synced my account with playstation a day or two ago. I have actually ripped sds when they gave us the futuristic prop set. No one was more upset about that than I was. -

No one was more upset about that than I was.Then you should be upset by what SDS has done here. I really cannot understand how anyone who has paid for this game, like I have, could react with anything less than righteous anger.
Again, the code to solve the concern over cheating in online play is right there in SC already. It just needed to be extended to the move of baseline and backstop wall panels. That isn't hard from a coding point of view. It could have easily been done, but SDS rejected that option. They don't want us to be happy using SC. They want our experience to be degraded.

@maddybutgames_PSN we got it, thanks.
