2nd inning struggle for offline players
-
You're exactly right. Now, my own little bit of optimism says that they'll prepare for this by really stepping up the effort to draw those people back in '27...but the realist in me is a good amount more tempered
-
If baseball has a long strike, Sony continues to cut costs, and the dev team isn’t completely overhauled 27 could be really rough. That’s why I feel like if they bottom out this year and run off enough players it could be game over next year.

Yeah, this is issue 1a after GTAVI, there isn’t a single analyst that isn’t predicting a lockout to start the season. The two sides aren’t close on the big issue and won’t be close for a while. If there’s an extended lockout that costs games, people aren’t going to be interested in an MLB product. It’s almost a perfect storm that’s bad news for SDS in 27. If I was leadership, I’d be doing everything I can to maximize profits this year in hopes it’s enough to carry through 27 and then do a massive overhaul during 27 and a big relaunch in 28. Just my two cents.

Im pretty much killing time til 007 First Light drops.

For me personally it's the holy trinity of AC Black Flag re-synced, Fable, and JP Survival. My "Core 5" games will be complete once GTA VI and 007 drop. I've been itching for a Bond game so much I fired up GoldenEye on my emulator.

Im passing on AC Black Flag. Actually, more like boycotting Ubisoft until we get a new Splinter Cell and/or The Division 3. Since 2013, when Blacklist was released on PS3, we've got 25 Assassins Creed games (including remasters, iOs and Android) and all we've gotten from Splinter Cell is a few Sam Fisher cameos in Ghost Recon. Hell, id take remasters at this point but they're choosing to drain the AC well dry.
I havent bought a Ubisoft game since Ghost Recon Breakpoint.

The Division 3
It's coming, rumour is it's going to be either Chicago, Montreal, or London, UK.
I'd prefer Chicago or Montreal because of it's possibility of a harsh winter setting again like the original. As for Black Flag...I suppose it's just nostalgia for me, it was personally my favourite AC game.
I liked the original Ghost Recon Wildlands game, but Breakpoint got too...I don't know. Felt like it couldn't decide if it wanted to be an RPG looter-shooter like Division, a stealth game like SC, or a full on shooter.

I enjoyed both Recon and Wildlands but I also feel like Wildlands was the superior game. I think I have played both several times.
Played through the initial campaign of The Division 2 but never pursued it beyond that.
And while I really like the main AC games I have never touched any of the spin offs from that series.
To show you how unpopular my tastes can be, I loved the Watch Dogs franchise with 2 being my favorite.

I play offline but since they forced us to play online events this year, I've done that. Some events were good and some bad. But the problem is the events are so short. If you work and have family and only get to play on weekends, there is no way anyone would be able to complete events in a weekend unless they literally locked themselves in their basement for the entire weekend. And even with that not sure if you could finish the events and inning program.
I use to play MLBTS year round but since CFB came out a few years ago I've stopped around July. Now if the MLBTS content and gameplay was good like back in the PS4 era, then I'd still play year round. But they're def not favoring the offline player. And like others mentioned, if I want to get my baseball fix, I'll just play some of the older games. Right now I am really enjoying the gameplay of MLBTS 16.

Right now, id put money on the Max Payne remake coming out before Divsion 3. Ubisoft is too stuck in the AC cycle. They cancelled the Division battle royale game and all they've said about 3 is that its in early development. I have no faith in them anymore.

I actually like Watchdogs 2. And to correct myself from a previous post, Watchdogs Legion was my last Ubisoft game which i attest to covid and lockdown boredom that made me buy it.

I actually like that one quite a lot too.

What's hilarious is that they added more missions for xp, but about half of the xp you HAVE to earn through ranked and multiplayer. What a joke

Yeah I noticed this too. Shows they are checked out and that wasn’t an adjustment is was a planned drop. They simply do not care about offline players.
If all offline players walked away right now and this cheating online issue resulted in a good chunk of online players calling it quits this game would be completely dead.
I wonder if they realize how close they are to killing their own game?
