What Needs to Improve for MLB The Show 26 Diamond Dynasty

@Jeff7407_PSN
Simple: just release the best cards late in the end-game cycle around November and December -
they should make the game more about skill

Please bring back the level system and diamond Dynasty

Let us have at least 1 more lineup slot.

The release of the cards and the ramp up, in my opinion, is always going to be an issue and I doubt that there is an easy fix.
In my opinion some of the Legends and HOFers should always be near the top, but using the ramp up method that would mean waiting to get 99s of those legend until like November, after Finest are released. Or else we come up with these situations.
At first glance I accept the power and contact ratings until you look a little closer at the numbers. Musial's card lists his MVP year of 1948
- Musial batted .376 and deserves those 125s but should Caminero be as close as he is hitting .264?
- In what world does Caminero get the higher attributes in Vision and Discipline considering walk and strikeout numbers?
- Stan batted .426 with RISP. Caminero batted .270. Do they deserve the same clutch?
I just don't think there is an easy fix based on the players expectations that cards get better the later into the year we get. The early 99s are always going to be weaker even though, in this case, Stan was released just a few weeks before the Finest cards.

I think I just wanted an excuse to have AI code an app that allows me to directly compare players stats across decades.

I want a mode that forces us to use live series players only. The only purpose is for collections and getting special players/cards. But once we get collections, live series are irrelevant.

@Rubbaneck34_XBL I agree to an extent with you. Most are irrelevant once collections are done or the game advances a bit past the launch cycle. I don’t play much online though so I actually made it a point last year to P5 as many LS cards I wanted to. I think I did around 30 or more. I have fun playing as those cards and hoping they diamond in a roster update. This year, however, I’ve already decided to use the best cards and not worry as much about trying to use LS, just as a switch up from last year. You have a great point.

I personally don't like using generic placeholders, which is what I feel live series are. Im all for them getting buffs in specific events though
That said, the Topps designs the last few years have been quite lackluster and I've felt uninspired by the look of live series. This year's design is pretty good

The design of a card is irrelevant to the gameplay.
