Companion app not connecting to the market
-
@PsylockeSmythe_XBL I have two cell phones. I use both to simultaneously monitor the market prices and the other to place the leading bid. I am fast with my fingers and can get a leading bid in about 1 second after checking the most recent price, as I hover over the place a buy order screen on my second phone. That's not cheating, but it is an advantage. I have played this franchise for 12 years, and getting labeled a cheater by SDS studios is the point that chases me away for good.

@SiberiaTigerCub_PSN I completely understand what you are saying, and why how they do it, catches both the honest players along with the bad actors at times.
My only suggestion is to slow down. I don't flip anymore. I do sell any duplicates cards or items, but I make sure that I don't place my orders when selling them as fast as I could.

I'm trying to imagine the efforts they have gone to to ruin investing and flipping vs how much actual money they think they will now bring in by stopping this. Just another example of stupid out of touch people in charge of decisions that will in the end cause more harm to their product than good
-
Well, I have been banned, without even a warning flipping wasn't allowed. At first I thought maybe they banned me because I am located in Russia, and the PSN network isn't supposed to be accessible here (I use VPN), but then I see others are having the same issue. I might just move off of this franchise. To be honest, I like playing the market just as much as the baseball game. In fact, I barely touch diamond dynasty as much as I do road to the show.
-
Wait. Are people really banned? Yesterday the site was down but it seems to be working again.
-
@theBlindRhino_PSN I think they are restricting accounts and reviewing them...but that is just a guess since this company doesn't respect it's paying customers enough to let them know what's going on.
-
@theBlindRhino_PSN They are not banned from the game, what is happening is that people are having their account restricted, which means that they can't access the website nor the app for the current year of the game, i.e. MLB the Show 26. They should still be able to log into the game via their console and access the market that way.

@PsylockeSmythe_XBL would be nice if the company actually explained why
-
@PsylockeSmythe_XBL Okay that is exactly what happened to me yesterday. Same verbiage about being restricted. Whatever it was has been lifted in my case so I specifically wasn't singled out for any behavior. I doubt many people were. Also it seems the bot issue is ebbing.
-
@theBlindRhino_PSN still the company should explain why it's happening... same with me...i was restricted now I'm ok
-
@Stinkysman77_MLBTS I don't disagree, I just don't see them doing that, since they haven't done it in the past.

It just now happened to me. I was flipping and it now says I am restricted.
-
@revjlt1_XBL me too. Not even flipping. Just buying cards.
-
So SDS is banning regular users, but not the bots now?
-
@Wolfski0412_PSN Not really a ban. I’m still playing. It’s just restricting me on the market app. No reason stated. All I do on the app is buy and sell cards. Not even flipping.
-
Yeah, I should clarify I am not banned from the game on the console, but in terms of using the app or website.
-
@GoozeFn_PSN so if u just flip on console as annoying as it is can u recive a restriction there? Anybody test this yet ?
-
Some kind of confirmation would be nice as to what we can and can’t do from the devs in regards to flipping and working the market.
-
I think it was the people who did the uniform glitch where buying said uniform made you able to quick sell all dupes. They've since patched that
-
@sbchamps17_NSW this isn’t the case. Never did it and got restricted
