Sds needs to take advantage of the next gen consoles

If they did Create-a-stadium it would be for offline franchise. No way they do it for online without some major parameters. I could see customizable stadiums for DD though. They could add more minor league fields and allow the user to change some of the color schemes in certain areas and logo or add placements. That'd be about all I could see create a stadium getting for online.
Let's be real though. In the 7 games we've had on PS4, we got ...
Graphics: life like skin tones, dynamic lighting, more detailed stadium textures, new people in the crowd, more detailed dugout phones and roofs, and better looking hair.
Presentation: 2 different commentators (only one stuck and very little change in main commentary since PS3), new in game score bugs, and new hit feedback (that rarely makes sense)
Gameplay: New hitting engines every year since 17 (I don't think users have been thrilled with any of them), seemingly more RNG results hitting and pitching, new animations, better reacting infielders (generally) when it comes to tags and animation branching, and a plethora of new HR swings and stances
Content: Removal of season mode, removal of many offline franchise features, added retro mode, many new ways to play in DD, and a good amount of exciting new legends.
Some things people wanted that were never addressed through the entire game cycle, quality updates to offline franchise, more engaging commentary, better OF animations that allow for urgency (this got a little better), player models (slightly with body types, but nothing major), dynamic uniforms (they've been the same stagnant uni's since PS3), probably lots of other things too.
My point, if you're expecting them to make major overhauls, you're going to be greatly disappointed. It's kinda evident that the game got polished up a bit graphically (stadiums were the focus all system cycle) and became focused on DD content and player balancing.

I would really like them to add jersey cards that we could equip and use.Have a ton for each team over the years so that you don’t have to create so many different ones depending your mood. Have different tiers and collection rewards for even more rare uniforms.

Or if you stock your team full of lefty batters knowing the RF wall is 8 feet high and the LF wall is 80 feet high.
Or you make the whole wall 80 feet high, put down a slick, turf infield, and make your entire lineup bunting speedsters.
There's SO much mischief one could get into with create-a-stadium that it's honestly not worth the hassle.
Lol you’re so negative, you sat here for two years talking as much [censored] about online franchise as you could. Never played it....still don’t, now you care about the online competitive balance? Lmao you complain more about what might happen that people do what does happen.

I wasn't running down the concept of OF, just pointing out the fact that it was the least-played mode by a substantial amount and SDS would be wise to prioritize their efforts towards modes that people actually use.
Now that we have OL and people seem to be using them: great. Wonderful! Let peace and happiness abound.

Only if it’s offline only, definitely not for online

The only way you can care about competitor balance online is by caring about online franchise? I don’t care about online franchise at all, didn’t know that meant I can’t care about competitive balance online

Idk what the deal is with stadium builds and stuff. If I wanted to build a ton of [censored], I’d buy Sim City
yea im with you i could care less but thats the great part about Ultimate Team games, theres something for everyone. Like how cool would it be if you start DD and you have to create your team logo, color, stadium, nickname, mascot. It would feel more like MY TEAM. Get away from the dumb banners and icon [censored]. Give more customization to other areas

Forget stadiums, how about maybe some consistent hitting, some kind of fielding that isn't horrible and pitching where user input matters!
PREACH IT!

How about instead of adding 'bells and whistles' nd cosmetically features that don't really matter; they find a way to have servers that actually support and can handle all the traffic.
I'm assuming they'll need seperate servers for each platform.

Wasnt that the year that the servers were so bad SDS ended up having to send people free 10pk bundles? -

I'm making 500 foot tall walls, made of rubber. And... Artificial turf. Inside the park home runs all day.

I believe we see create a stadium for franchise and offline play. Online play, I see to many possibilities for exploitation.

Custom stadiums would be great if that wasn’t the most exploitable thing possible.

I’d enjoy at least up to two alternate jerseys to use.
