Still No Marcelo Mayer, Roman Anthony, and Miguel Bleis
-
So, first roster update today but apparently Red Sox don’t deserve to have their top five prospects included in the game. Trying to be patient these aren’t international free agents so why would the number one organizational player, who was in last year’s game, not be included immediately upon release. I posted the first day of early release and emailed support as well and got no response but they are quick to respond to monetary items like issues with Community Market. Not having these organizational cornerstones truly takes away from game and sorry I mostly only play Franchise mode but I’ve shelled out close to $1000 on every new edition of the show and continue to be thanked by no updates or meaningful additions to commentary, and now not even having the top prospects on my home team. Also previously mentioned Rafael Devers hair, he has a fade, why multiple years in a row does he have that long hair can the devs please fix these issues, I thought the point of this discussion board is to essentially debug and test the game so I would appreciate reciprocation in rosters being updated or else what was the point of me buying Show 24 I actually had Marcelo Mayer in 23’.

None of those players are listed on the Red Sox 40 man roster.

Mayer was in last year, doesn’t change the fact they are top 5 prospects, also your argument doesn’t make sense, there are a lot of players not on 40 man rosters in the game. Example Kyle Teel drafted 2023, he’s definitely top prospect, and his draft mate from 2023 in 2nd round, Nazzan Zanetello, is in game but isn’t on 40 man, along with countless other prospects.

Paul Skenes isn’t on the Pirates 40 man.

Got em again lol.

Those aren’t live series cards. I’m talking about live series cards. There’s no “gotcha”

But he was at least an invitee to camp. The three Red Sox players, were not.

Live series cards are cards used in franchise offline and also used in DD. I’m looking at Paul Skenes right now in my franchise. They even explained this about a dozen times in the ratings reveal stream. He’s in AA. I’d share an image if I knew how to do that.
-
Yeah, this isn’t brain surgery. If a player isn’t on the 40 man roster, they aren’t going to be a live series card to start off the season. Been that way for 10 years.

We all want all of the top prospects from our favorite teams in the game, I get it, I want a diamond Brooks Lee card more than anything for my Twins, but the game has only been out for 3 days, so it's not a realistic ask. I'm sure there will be a Future Stars program sooner than later.
-
@BJDUBBYAH He didn’t say he wanted a diamond card. Brooks Lee is another player is in the game with zero MLB experience. Now I get why they had to tell the viewers live series cards are the same for offline franchise and DD play a dozen times. For people like you.

Actually, there is a "gotcha" because he's talking about Franchise mode. Theat the mide he plays.

@x814xmafia hey that’s great.
-
@x814xmafia
Exactly, Franchise you are harping on the DD and I said nothing of the sort. Plain and simple, Mayer was in the game last year and all the top prospects aforementioned need to be in the game just like the countless other “non 40 man” prospects, as I said and others have pointed out, there are tons of other players in the game that are not highly as rated and are not on 40 man rosters. Definitely not asking for miracles, and it’s not like these guys are Bill Belichick in Madden or the days of Jon Dowd aka Barry Bonds, they want to be in the game lol.
-
I’ll give it after everything is finalized across the board. Anthony was added last Friday so hopefully a sign of things to come
-
@becausetheWi-Fi
Yeah I saw they added him, seems almost purposeful not to add Mayer at least, not like he’s number one in organization lol.
-
Yeah, it's more than fair to have these requests especially since Mayer in Bleis were in the base game last year. My issues are:
- I wish we could have a scheduled list of new players/adjustments added before the weekly/bi-weekly Friday content updates
- Support would answer our questions when tickets are created about specific players so I wouldn't have to go through the forum. If they won't be added, fine. But I'd like some affirming response from SDS
