Just want to gather everyone's thoughts on what they think of the launch so far. I've read and encountered so many issues over this past weekend such as RTTS being unplayable due to all the loadout bugs, missing stubs/player cards, constant server errors negating progress, and apparently some people on next gen cant even get into the game at all or are missing their rewards. With today being official launch day my question for returning players is, is this the worst mlb the show launch we've seen? As for for the new players and especially xbox players, i ask what are your first impressions on the show after craving a decent baseball game for so long?
Launch is perfect
LaUnCh Is PeRfEcT

My thoughts exactly

It's the same as any other launch and every one is acting like these problems are exclusive to this years game, or this game in general and not every online game ever made at launch. I'm not saying these problems don't need to get addressed, but going out of your way to cause a riot on a forum must be exhausting

not every online game has issues that are this bad tbh. also lets not act like there isnt issues beyond the online stuff. RTTS is supposed to be a mostly offline mode and that doesnt work at all

The RTTS stuff is being addressed in the next patch. Idk, I've been playing DD since 17. In MLB 17, other than the RTTS and Xbox related problems. Every other problem matches Exactly to 21. Difference is in this game these problems will probably be fixed by the middle of next week. In 17 the same problems persisted for almost 3 months. I know the Xbox players were naive to that fact that these problems might happen. I only Have the problem with posters that have been on these forums for years and still expected a perfect launch, then making 14 posts complaining about what was completely expected to happen with new platforms/generations and double the player base. I can deal with server problems. It happens.

no one is expecting perfection just for most things to work. When people pay 100 for early access and content they want to be able to actually play the game. if it was just the server stuff i wouldnt have a problem at all, even though its frustrating, bc that happens every year. there's just a lot of issues that are pretty huge

I simply ask, "Is this your 1st year playing MLBTS?
If not you should be used to bugs and errors that will occur for quite some time.
Whether it is Launch Day, A New Event, added programs etc,, Expect to see problems throughout the process.
Not saying it is acceptable but sums up to another year of what MLBTS is known for. -

Not saying it is acceptable but sums up to another year of what MLBTS is known for.Ive been playing for years. I guess i just have a problem that the server issues is the same thing every year and we're supposed to just deal with it bc its "normal" even though it shouldn't be.

I get it, but other than the RTTS stuff everything else is server related in some capacity. Lost stubs, I get the problems, lost cards will be put back eventually. I guess I just have a different mindset because I pay the $100 every year and could care less about early access. To me that alone isn't worth the extra cash. As long as it's not literally game breaking like the fielding was last year I couldn't care less about the other problems because they always get sorted out. Everyone is just too impatient IMO
-
Give it a few weeks to work out the kinks. It's unfair to judge the game right now. Launch hasn't been super smooth but they will make it right.

Myself, personally, I have had a good launch. No real problems with the game, no glitches or anything really messed up. The only problem I have encountered is not being able to do a DD play with friends game last night. Might have been crossplay issues or servers ramping up for full release today but that is the only issue I have encountered so far.
-
Worst launch I’ve ever seen. And I’ve been a gamer since about 1984
-
Might be the best game yet.....too bad for the [censored] servers.

they always make it right. im not worried about that. My gripe is that this stuff is the same every year. thats an issue imo
-
If nothing else, this launch taught me that paying extra to play a few days early and have a little head start on stubs is not worth the time wasted in trying to make it all work properly. I've played this series from the beginning and have always rolled my eyes at the people complaining at launch because I hadn't experienced those issues -- until this year. Well, it all makes sense to me now!

That's not an SDS problem though. That happens every year only through GameStop, not target, Best Buy, or Walmart. Strictly a GameStop problem on that one so that's irrelevant to the discussion. Gamestop flubbs up the release of this game every single time lol
-
Well, per usual another bad launch for SDS. Servers not working, errors etc

actually when i looked into this Microsoft stated its an SDS issue bc SDS hasnt yet activated the codes. Could be thats just them passing the buck but it seems to be the consensus answer ATM

Honestly, at this point the servers don't even bug me because it happens EVERY YEAR. I expect them to crumble under the traffic, and they never disappoint. Can't remember which year it was but for the first month it was constantly hanging games and disconnecting users...
