On PlayStation charts -- MLB has not been a top 40 played game in multiple consecutive weeks. To put it in perspective, games like Sniper Elite 5 are listed as top 40...
On Xbox charts -- MLB the Show 23 currently sits at 27 this past week and has been falling, but much of that is due to the fact that the game is free with Gamepass on Xbox so numbers will be inflated. This inflation is doubled down with a chart representing current player base -- MLB the Show 23 was the only game on this list of 100 to have the highest differentiation of hours played to player count ratio. This means that the small number of people who are still playing are logging long hours.
The. Game. Is. Dying. We all know those two or three people that used to play it that don't anymore. Why? Because everyone is a 99, they force you to grind your life away, buying packs from the store is the most boring experience in any ultimate team style gamemode of any sports video game (I mean who from SDS thought it was a good idea to only allow you to pull CORE players in packs... what a snooze fest), and the game is filled with simply too much RNG that most of us in here chalk up to "baseball".
When will the community actually hold the development team accountable? It's riddled with server issues, glitches, bugs, exploits. Since release, there hasn't been a single meaningful gameplay update AT ALL. It's been like this for years now and players are picking up on it. The ones who stay are complacent. We use excuses like "it's the only option, what other baseball game would we play". When people suggest posts like this, they get targeted with phrases like "must of lost today" instead of having an open HONEST dialogue with constructive criticism on how we can provide ways to improve the game through the power of the players.
If not, enjoy making your snobby comments towards people who post in here that are passionate about playing the game at a high level. We're leaving... The game that is your "only option" will continue to bleed out of a player base until it looses enough money year over year to where that option is no longer available. The only ones left behind will be players who don't care for competitive online play, or offline players. I wish I was wrongs.
This information is not true

Ok I just read this whole thread…What NR7LES said in the original post is all true. He said what he said & backed it up with facts…Then that Canuckler troll showed up & hijacked the thread with his usual shenanigans and the thread became a mudslinging thread instead. When are you guys going to stop feeding this troll? He’s clearly one of these keyboard warriors that’s tough because he can hide in anonymity. He wouldn’t say any of this stuff to you in person & he knows it. Nor would he ever meet any of you in person for a physical altercation. JUST IGNORE HIM.
Most people know my real name
️ also, why would anyone meet for a physical altercation? That’s psychotic behavior lol 
You’re definitely right though, we should definitely make this game an echo chamber for guys like Nr7les (Sammy77), bestpal, Skippractice, sorry the game isn’t what you want it to be, hopefully you can find a game better to your liking that doesn’t effect your mental health like this one does. And yes, I would definitely say that to your face.
Canuckler - Fighting is psychotic behavior, I would never do that.
Also Canuckler - I just spent 8 hours looking through player X’s game history & in The Show 16 you once struck out 16 times, You are not a good player.
Yeah, TOTALLY not psychotic

Look, I’m not going to drag and trash the devs/game like NR7LES/bestpal/Skippractice because there are things in the game I don’t like. On the flip side, I’m not going to slurp the devs/game like Tylerslikewhoa because there are things about the game I enjoy. Why? Because at the end of the day SDS is a video game studio that neither cares about me as a person nor if I play their game or not. No post of yelling on this forum will change anything SDS does. It’s like having kids, whining and crying isn’t going to get them what they want. When the surveys come up I do my best to offer constructive feedback based on my personal experience as others do and SDS will choose what to do with the game going forward. From there I’ll choose to buy the game or not, if I do cool. If not, the sun will still rise, the world will keep spinning and SDS will continue to move forward as if nothing happened because we are irrelevant to them. More people need to realize this.

You really enjoy grinding recycled cards huh
Honestly the grind isn’t my favourite part but it is what it is. Most of my favourite players are in the game so I’ll grind for them.

So ya never denied it.
-
I have no input on this game only that reading this thread I just felt meh at each points from both sides. So yeah, meh is how I feel about that and the game in general

@raesONE-_PSN said in This Game is Dying:
I think it would actually be a great idea
As do I. Then we would see skills actually matter. The top tier players would still be the top tier players. OP is right, he criticized the game and the white knights of SDS came out in droves.
Having speed and PCI changes at every level is bad. Even on the lower levels. When I first started playing late in the 21 season I got to the borderline of veteran and all-star.
Between a string of rage quits and a couple of connection drops by my opponents I got bumped into all-star and was not ready for it. A string of losses followed, and I dropped back down to veteran, and again, string of rage quits, and I kept going back and forth between two levels and couldn't get a consistent game setting.
At that point I gave up on RS until I moved to 20 and yes, I am a weak hitter, but not as bad as I thought. Recently on the reddit thread someone showed a graph chart and something like 75-80% of all online players were basically in the lower levels.
Since most of us are on the lower levels leaving settings across the board should not make a difference if all the white knights consider themselves so superior to us lowly commoners their skills should keep them at the top.
Unfortunately, they don't want any changes unless it benefits them and ONLY them. Commoners like myself should just "shut up and take it". Well, I didn't get 22 or 23, and with the halfhearted effort this year see no reason to get 24 unless it's a complete game with no bugs.

This is so wrong my dude. This community feels like it can’t create change because SDS doesn’t listen to its players as much as they should, and people like you. People like you are a deterrent for gameplay change. That’s why it’s so frustrating for payers who critique the game.

Saying this game is trash or you’re a shill if you enjoy it is not critiquing the game it offers nothing constructive to improve the game. I critique the game plenty. Unless you missed that part where I said I fill out every survey and give actual feedback.
This game should not be doing this to you like holy guy, you should not care this much about a video game. If you can’t create change who cares? It’s a video game, go create change in the world, not a video game.

First of all, don’t do the “you shouldn’t care” you have 600+ hours in Diamond Dynasty, you care a lot more than me. You troll people who offer criticism which comes off as a shill. It’s discouraging as a gamer to watch a game I used to love playing slowly die.

I think you’re wrong about creating change. The game has changed a lot in the last five years. Even in those little promo videos they put out they say, “We listened to you and now you’ll see [such and such].”
From pitch speeds to check swings to building more than one line up to conquest sim speeds—they listen to the forum and they do make changes.

You have offered no constructive criticism. Saying the game is trash is not constructive criticism. It’s like in leadership or in a team setting if say to some one “come on” you’re literally doing nothing.
My hours the game has on does not change my level of care. If I stopped playing today nothing would change in my life.

What sort of "gameplay change" are you trying to get by calling other players "no lifers" because they've played more hours than you? What exact gameplay change do you expect to come from that?

You can’t really speak with authority about that, though. You believe the forums to be mindless yelling, but you can’t say SDS feels the same way because you don’t work there.
You don’t like what some people post but that doesn’t mean the forums are ignored by the people that make the game. I’m sure the surveys and the forums give the company feedback that they use to make the game more responsive to the demands of the public.

Look, I’m not going to drag and trash the devs/game like NR7LES/bestpal/Skippractice because there are things in the game I don’t like. On the flip side, I’m not going to slurp the devs/game like Tylerslikewhoa because there are things about the game I enjoy. Why? Because at the end of the day SDS is a video game studio that neither cares about me as a person nor if I play their game or not. No post of yelling on this forum will change anything SDS does. It’s like having kids, whining and crying isn’t going to get them what they want. When the surveys come up I do my best to offer constructive feedback based on my personal experience as others do and SDS will choose what to do with the game going forward. From there I’ll choose to buy the game or not, if I do cool. If not, the sun will still rise, the world will keep spinning and SDS will continue to move forward as if nothing happened because we are irrelevant to them. More people need to realize this.
This is so wrong my dude. This community feels like it can’t create change because SDS doesn’t listen to its players as much as they should, and people like you. People like you are a deterrent for gameplay change. That’s why it’s so frustrating for payers who critique the game.
Saying this game is trash or you’re a shill if you enjoy it is not critiquing the game it offers nothing constructive to improve the game. I critique the game plenty. Unless you missed that part where I said I fill out every survey and give actual feedback.
This game should not be doing this to you like holy guy, you should not care this much about a video game. If you can’t create change who cares? It’s a video game, go create change in the world, not a video game.
I think you’re wrong about creating change. The game has changed a lot in the last five years. Even in those little promo videos they put out they say, “We listened to you and now you’ll see [such and such].”
From pitch speeds to check swings to building more than one line up to conquest sim speeds—they listen to the forum and they do make changes.
They listen to the surveys, they’re not looking at the forums and making change because it’s mindless yelling.
You can’t really speak with authority about that, though. You believe the forums to be mindless yelling, but you can’t say SDS feels the same way because you don’t work there.
You don’t like what some people post but that doesn’t mean the forums are ignored by the people that make the game. I’m sure the surveys and the forums give the company feedback that they use to make the game more responsive to the demands of the public.
What feedback are they getting from “this game is trash?”
You’re cherry-picking only certain posts from the forums. Not all posts are like that. Some do offer constructive criticism and quality of life suggestions that have been implemented.
