MLB The Show 26 - What Fans Deserve - Pt. 2
-
I'm elaborating on another post from @akapaco159_MLBTS.
Realistic Commentary Booths
I don't even think Chris Singleton is a color commentator, and if he is, he definitely isn't with Jon Sciambi with the Cubs. Time to add some real broadcast booths like Joe Buck & Harold Reynolds (RIP Tim) or Joe Davis & John Smoltz or simply bringing back Matt Vasgersian and adding Buck Martinez beside him. Somebody other than the boring duo we've had since 22.
Realistic Walk-up Songs and Pitcher Entrances
Enough with this soundtrack that you literally won't here once at a baseball game. Time for SDS to try and get the rights to some actual songs you would hear like My Girl with Francisco Lindor, Narco with Edwin Diaz, Layla with Pete Alonso, Sweet Escape with Gunnar Henderson, Hells Bells with Ryan Helsley and Trevor Hoffman, ENTER SANDMAN WITH MARIANO RIVERA (if he ever comes back)
Ejections, Brawls, Challenges, and Double-Headers
Aside from plunking too many batters, give players and managers the opportunity to argue bad calls and get ejected. This is a realistic part of the game, why isn't it in? Depending on how long you argue, the chances you have of getting ejected go up. Give players or managers aggressive archetypes like Bryce Harper and Aaron Boone, making them more prone to arguments and ejections. Also, similar to NHL, give us the opportunity to charge the mound if a player gets hit intentionally and give us the opportunity to actually fight. At the very least, can the opportunity to challenge plays arise at places other than first base? At the very least, ADD RAINOUTS AND DOUBLE-HEADERS, SOMETHING THAT IS ACTUALLY IN BASEBALL WTF ARE WE DOING SDS.
More Classic Stadiums
I made a previous post about former MLB stadiums to be added into the game so I won't go into detail with this, but at least add a few more than the little amount of Classic stadiums we have.
These are just some things that SDS SHOULD add to the game. @SDS_JoeK_PSN please pass this along to the team. -

The license with MLB explicitly prohibits it.

This here because they had ejections. The only time it happens now is if you purposely hit a batter and they warn the benches and that isn’t even implemented correctly. I’ve had multiple hit batters after the warning without ejections. It only will eject the pitcher if you purposely hit a batter.
As for Matty V, he left because of his job with the Angels. I don’t think he would come back. If they changed to another duo it’ll be really bad in the beginning unless they chose to go with fake announcers who can work the game 24/7/365.
Lastly, just connect your own Apple Music or Spotify and the music problem is solved. Wouldn’t you rather they focus on paying former athletes than musicians?

Just bring back sounds of the show, where you could upload walk up songs, strike out, home run and celebration music, even crowd chants and upload your own music... it was awesome, also make diamond dynasty so you can disable the DH.... dream change six or nine inning mode on mini seasons

I used Sounds of the show when it was in the game but I don't see it coming back. In the past you could load files onto the internal drive of the PS4, but unless something has changed you can't do that on the PS5. The feature would require a USB drive and I can understand SDS not wanting game feature that relies on a myriad of external USB drives or thumb drives. They can't even seem to fix multi year bugs like Logos Disappearing and that has been happening for several years

@TheBigPapa55_PSN Love this!

@Victoryphoenix_MLBTS I agree. If they cannot get it done then let us handle our own team or allow us to upload like last time. Walk-up songs are a HUGE part of baseball now-a-days especially with the young population. I have been shocked we haven't figured this out yet.
