Only play this game as much as I do because there’s no sports and when the show came out MUT was put to rest for me. Love baseball and need it and this is all we got for a while lol. Will keep playing the game no matter what cuz it will never get me mad like MW2 did back in the day

This year the game is all about user skill. So a lot of players can't cut it because they want the game to hold them. These are the players that try to blame the game because like in their day to day life they blame others for their mistakes instead of owning it.

Not only are you blatently ignoring known issues such as fielding...you're implying that a game like this should only be fun for the elite players which is total BS.
Also, you're making a lot of assumptions about other people....for myself personally, in the past, when i did used to suck at this game, I learned why, how to be better and I put in the time and it worked...what's happening in this years game imo, is different than that...I don't agree with your "Skill" based view of this game
plus you're also ignoring when the game was launched it was in decent condition....so was that version of this years game also based on skill in your opinion? cause there was significantly less issue wise going on in that version of MLB 20......

Most people take criticism fine. There's much to be critical about. What people don't take well is hyperbole, insults and name calling, and making the same thread over and over again everytime you lose a game.
Unless its Tyler, he's just a troll and I don't know why people still entertain him.
From my observations this is true Unless you are attacking gamers. Then you can use hyperbole, insults and name calling. Just don’t hurt the precious egos of the guys making the game.

Been playing the Show for 4 years now. Can't even begin to say how frustrating and disapointing this years game has been so far.... the horrible patches, the fielding issues, etc...
Last year I really leveled up at this game, pushing myself to play consistently at a Legend difficulty level in DD, i'm not a scrub, but this year man, its the most inconsistent slog in any game I've ever experienced
Some people here don't seem to take criticism of SDS or the state of game very well (lol) but to me, there's no debate about whether the game has issues that are leading to a major problem...the game is way to frustrating and at times challenging even for above average players......all 4 of my buddies with this game, have abandoned DD mode or the game altogether...
And here comes the part i'm sure to get flammed about, but to me, it's just apparent...this game is catered towards advanced players and streamers and %1000 benefits that set of gamers or like any sports game dynasty mode....people who just plug money into it
Day 1 seemed SO PROMISING GAH! go back SDS, go back to first iteration and think hard on what's going on here....

Honestly, the gameplay over the last year has really slipped. The on-field product has really slipped, with the game turning into an unpredictable mess. It really seems like SDS has 1) tried to reinvent the wheel and implement more complex engines which have created more unpredictable results and 2) in general focused on graphics, stadiums, animations, content, new game modes, etc while neglecting the actual baseball aspect of it.
I mean to be honest, this is DD centric but stadium details don;t even really matter to me. The fact that they went out to companies this year to get the rights to the signs out in the bleachers hasn't made me want to keep playing this game. For the most part most DD games don't even get played in MLB stadiums. I just want to a baseball game that plays well and the mechanics seem solid. Everything seemed to go downhill when SDS tried to invent a new hitting engine to replicate the cylindrical nature of the bat, and instead turning the PCI into this odd nebulous concept that nobody seems to be able to clearly define exactly what it represents. This year looks like it's fieldings turn to get butchered.

SDS needs to take some notes from Konami Pro Yak Spirits baseball game, most realistic baseball game out there batting and pitching physics
Except for the crazy breaking balls. Haha

I was trying so hard to wait to buy the game on sale, but i was getting bored with the games i had. I really regret spending $60 on this absolute mess of a game. This years game by far has the most random outcomes, unreal bugs/glitches and just overall poor gameplay. Extremely disappointed.
