SDS should be ashamed of this game.
-
This game is absolutely the most inconsistent game play and full of bugs that have not been addressed after being mentioned.
The DD mode is garbage. RTTS is garbage. Franchise is garbage. Play Now is some what decent. But the game all around responds like total bleep!
It does not add up.
-
Pitching and bat speed mechanics are second tier.
Tap baseball plays better then this garbage.
-
I only play DD but gameplay is great. Best its been in years.
-
I hope you stop playing then if you feel like that

There is another baseball game out there waiting for you to play.

This game is complete trash, it played well for about a month.
-
The content just seems messy and inconsistent.

That has not been my experience at all.

No he disappears for a month or so and comes back. He’s awful at the game and has no life. His parents probably turned his internet back on

I wouldn't go so far as to say the game is "trash" or "completely unplayable". However, there are some issues that have been going on since launch and are still not fixed. In years past, SDS had been relatively responsive to the issues reported by players but that doesn't seem to be the case this year.
The teleporting pitch is still occurring and that has been reported multiple times since release.
-
The more I play the more I notice the slight problems.
I think I get more hits being slightly late than good timing!
I am also having PP not even reach the warning track with players over 100 power. Come on bro.

Another one of these? Yeeesh.
Does it feel to anyone else like nuance or shades of gray are looked down upon in this day and age? Very few people are willing to say “the game took a step back from last year” or “there are some frustrating changes to gameplay and content in 23.” Instead, more often I see people go to the absolute extreme — every mode is “garbage” and SDS should be “ashamed.” My goodness! I’ve played a LOT of games in my life, and I can only think of one video game that was top-to-bottom “garbage” and should be a source of shame on anyone’s resume (ET for Atari 2600 — now THAT game was a disaster!). And here’s the other thing — I don’t believe for a second that the OP actually feels or believes what he’s saying. If you truly, truly hated this game, then you wouldn’t waste precious moments of your life on a game (and forum for a game) that you despise so much.
Is it fair to say there are some disappointing aspects of this installment? Well.. duh! There are still a lot of minor bugs (ex: the uniform glitch in MS) that should have been fixed a couple months ago. The content schedule is overwhelming, scattershot, and frustrating. The new model feels like “Grind 97 / Buy 99.” I think gameplay is as good as it’s been in years, but there still are some annoying quirks. Pinpoint pitching is still not what we were promised, and (while significantly better this year), I still feel the RNG more than I’d like. Superhuman CPU fielders are still a problem, and they haven’t made any meaningful improvements to RttS or Franchise in years. I could go on, but no matter how long my list of grievances gets, it would never be fair to call this game embarrassing garbage. Come on, man…:
If you think SDS is listening to off-the-rails posts like this then I have some bad news for you. If you came up with a measured, specific, objective list of realistic grievances then they might be willing to take your criticisms to heart. But when people make these “the sky is falling and the universe is about to implode and it’s all Ramone’s fault!!” posts then I can’t imagine SDS developers pay it the least bit of mind. And who can blame them?
And it’s absolutely 10000% not just the OP, and it’s not just MLBTS gamers, and it’s not just any corner of society. Over the last decade or so, this blindingly all-or-nothing attitude feels like it’s coming from everywhere and everyone about everything. How often do you hear someone say “that (movie/game/tv show/whatever) had some decent moments, but it was overall a missed opportunity. While A, B, and C were interesting ideas, I felt like ultimately it fell short because of X, Y, and Z.” No, instead it’s got to be “this movie was the worst thing in history and everyone involved should be jailed.” I don’t understand how people live like that, to be honest. Just walking around amped up like Tony Montana or something. It just sounds exhausting and detrimental to your mental health.
I don’t know, dudes. It just feels like everyone is afraid of their opinion being overlooked if it doesn’t feel balls-to-the-wall, over-the-top, definitive and authoritative. I feel like this extremism is a result of social media — it’s like people think there’s no time (or characters!) for a nuanced, justified, measured and well-reasoned opinion. People seem less concerned with making a cogent, defensible argument and much more concerned with being the biggest and loudest in order to cut through what they perceive as the white noise of other people’s opinions.
In the end, wouldn’t the world be a tiny bit better if we stopped aiming to be so wildly extreme in our opinions? (Btw — sorry for typos. My phone’s keyboard is the absolute worst piece of feces ever conceived by the unholy demon spawn developers who should be knifed in the soul and forced to play ET for all eternity whilst getting clubbed in the nuggets with an elephant tusk dipped in evil)

Personally I agree with a lot of this. I think there are a lot of improvements in this years game. Overall I think gameplay is as good as it’s been since 17. As far as bugs etc I either haven’t noticed much or don’t mind them. For those that complained about the 99s too early I was willing to give SDS the benefit of the doubt but now see it may not have worked as well as hoped. I don’t even mind set one going away. I’m just at a point where my main team is so good that when a 97 comes out that might be fun to use I don’t want to pull someone from my god squad. I barely touched live series this year even with super charged. Captains haven’t really been all that exciting for me anyhow. So overall I think gameplay has improved but content seems like it hasn’t been all that well planned out. I do give them credit for trying something different though. I just think what they tried was kind of a miss.
