Hopes/Needs For The Show 27
-
As a stated in my longer post in the Franchise section, since the cycle of your team's work gets started on the game for next year sometime after release of the current game, this is as good a time as any for a post asking for stuff to focus on for The Show 27.
As stated in my other post in the Franchise section, I did not and will not buy this year's version. To me, while it's not worth the asking price, my main thing is that it's simply not worth the buy and having to build 30 new stadiums for my custom Franchise league. I think you failed to consider that when you emptied the Vault, you upped the pricetag for anyone that uses many created stadiums for play. The pricetag at that moment became the price of the game and the amount of time it would take for anyone to build back the stadiums they had and used before. For users like myself that use them in a customized Franchise league, that pricetag was the time needed to spend to build 30 stadiums. The game isn't worth it to me. But I will give my thoughts on what I need to see for me to find it worth buying and building 30 new stadiums.
Stadium Creator
First, I will point out that when your released the news that you would start the Vault with a refresh, I was thrilled. I figured that if your team was doing this, it was a sign that you may be making some good wholesale changes to Stadium Creator that made old stadium non-transferrable. In the very least, I was thinking that if it wasn't an overhaul, you would at least take consideration that many of us made so many stadiums in the previous versions that you'd kind of do what smart businesses do to preemptively avoid backlash, by giving those of us that use Stadium Creator some things that have been asked for - like bullpens off the field and/or roofing options such as reractable roofs and domes. However, you didn't take any measures that showed consideration to the hard work it takes to build stadiums. That was highly disappointing. with this said, I'll state what I want to see for me to buy another version of your game ever again. And I'll keep it simple and and short as I keep it to the must-haves
1 - The bullpens need to come off the field. There is so many things that make it ridiculous to keep bullpens on the field. If you want to improve immersion for Franchise mode users like myself, get the bullpens off the fields for Stadium Creator. If you did this, your game would be worth me buying and building 30 new stadiums.
2 - Give us roofing options such as retractable roofs and domes. If you did this, your game would be worth be buying and building 30 new stadiums.
3 - If you can't give us 1 and 2, then allow us to edit and customize the MLB stadiums you have in the game. If you did this, your game would be worth buying and building 30 new stadiums.
4 - Correct a lot of the issues, such as with the Batter's Eye, lighting, and spaces that are part of angles fence dimensions.Uniform Creator
As stated on my other post in the Franchise section, there's only one major issue with uniform creator, but you don't ever fix it. The names and nunbers need an option that is equivalent to the caps and jerseys logo options of Standard or Screen. It's incomprehensible how this is not addressed or how the tool was created without someone thiking that the names and numbers should have the same options as the logos for caps and jerseys. Without it, when games reach nighttime, the names and numbers' coloring darkens and doesn't match anything else on the uniform. Please fix this!
These are my asks. I need these supportive tools to truly allow immersion in Franchise Mode.
As stated in my other post, I love your game. I hope you improve it. Please consider my asks. There are many users like me. I want a reason to buy the Show 27.

I don’t understand why they refuse to upgrade/update SC with basic QoL stuff. I mean, the stadium creator on MLB MVP 2005 had more customization in terms of the walls and field of play etc. I just don’t understand it
I will still buy it in 27’ because as I mentioned before I do enjoy ranked and co-op with my friends.

I'm just postulating here ...
but I'd bet the farm SC would get a whole lot better if they stopped allowing people to use them in online games.

I still don't understand why they REFUSE to expand customization for custom teams and fix the error like the way too dark name/numbers no matter how bright the color is. All 30 teams have 2 home uniforms and 2 road. There's no excuse for us to only get 1 home and 1 away. Not taking advantage of a fresh start for stadium creator was a HUGE letdown. That should've been the perfect opportunity to upgrade that feature

I’ve always been in favour of keeping them out of H2H games, if it meant we’d have an improved creator. Only thing I’d like is to keep it available in DD for Games vs CPU and mini seasons.
