Sad day for Stadium Creator Mode
-
With ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL the [censored] that is wrong with Stadium Creator mode they fixed THE ONE THING that people seemed to like. Thanks to ONE PERSON posting a stadium with the Phillies' batter's eye all over the field, SDS patched the glitch that allowed creators to use the batter's eyes ANYWHERE in their stadiums.
So many people who used the glitch appropriately now can no longer take advantage of it and now have to abandon, fix or delete a TON of stadiums. Sure, in a lot of ways it's our fault, because we should have known that the glitch would eventually be noticed and repaired, but at the same time, why SHOULD we expect that they would fix ANYTHING when the attention paid to this mode has been SO minimal.
The latest updates were mostly childish props that are NEVER seen in a baseball stadium and there are problems that require what seem to be SIMPLE solutions that have carried over from one game to the next. We have expressed our feelings on this mode time and time again on YouTube, Discord, Twitch, this VERY forum and sending tickets in DIRECTLY to SDS. They must REALL enjoy negative feedback.
The glitch being fixed isn't even the main issue. It just triggers us as this was ONE thing that we actually liked and other, more serious problems are ignored. We still have BULLPENS on fields, no HR distances on the walls, Light towers "reding out" in WEIRD places, DEAD spaces near sharp turns in HR fences, ONE freaking number prop that is found in the WORST LETTERING prop option, blue windows and doors that can't have more than 2 in a row on the HR fences and loads more, a crappy vault system where we have to navigate through 3,000 pages of COSTCO FIELD to find anything decent, and SOOOO MUCH MORE!
We know this tool is capable of SO MUCH MORE because you keep giving us more, it's just not the more we want. Please SDS, this tool is VERY FUN and could be NEAR PERFECT, if you just fix some of these issues. Please look at your feedback before you give us more giant bugs, monsters and buildings that were ripped directly from Alderaan and Coruscant.
Thanks,

Just imagine if they had turned the batters eye from a glitch to a prop. Then it would've acted exactly like any other prop, not being allowed on the field.
In this scenario, they could've fixed the issue, and not ruined it for the ones who used em properly.

It is indeed not merely a sad day, but entirely indicative of how badly SDS is plodding along via their vision for this game vice fairly accounting for the clear desires of their paying customers. SDS is a very tone deaf company, whose leadership is lacking the judgement to avoid angering their customer base.
We don't want more kiddie props for Stadium Creator. We want simple, and yet individually powerful and creative prop options that allow us to create realistic and vibrant stadiums suitable for MLB, MiLB, and collegiate ballparks.
You released an entire set of props a few weeks back, which was rendered in such a questionable manner that when you lay out the field level props, the straight props don't even match the forward placement of the curved props. There is no other word but inept that can be used to describe such a shoddy condition. This should have been caught on initial inspection and fixed before ever released. This bug was alerted to you the day the set was first released and two weeks later you release Update #8 that said it would fix the bugs in the Future City props.
Yet, this most glaring of bugs was not addressed. You seem fine with such poor results.
Worse, dozens of designers have expressed the same desires, almost entirely ignored, over the course of the last three years. Most of these desires could be rendered in one work day, and are therefore entirely doable.
-
Small seat stand props to allow us to create dugout level seating, or to fill in gaps that appear in your walls. A single straight seat prop five by five seats set on a concourse stairstepped base. Another curved that is five seats across at the front and seven seats at the rear likewise on a curved concourse base. Tight alignment with the snap points to create multiple grouped props to fill in areas as large or small as needed.
-
Bare concrete stairstepped props matching the size of the aforementioned seat props, that can be used to create aisleways. Again, with tight borders to allow snug fit with other props.
-
Raillings of short distance, one straight across and the other inclined to match the slope of your stand props. Again, with tight snap points to allow them to be grouped to form expanded perimeter fencing or aisleway railings.
-
Add to the existing wall props a new option for display of outfield wall distance to home plate.
-
New letter props, and numbers added to all existing and new letter props. For God's sake! How hard can this be! You've been asked to do this for three years now! These new letter props need to be smaller than the current group so we can use them more effectively to replicate signage.
-
Break apart your existing MiLB stand props. Remove the overhead suites and instead make the actual stand props bare in the rear concourse. Render the overhead suites as new MiLB stand alone props that can be added or left out, but if added, can be done in more creative ways.
The longer you ignore these more than reasonable desires from your customer, the more clear you reveal to us that you desire to see Stadium Creator deliberately sabotaged so that we are unable to create first class stadiums. It's as if your employees don't want the competition of thousands of people creating stadiums that might be just as good as your team creates. Well, what's more important to you -- your employees' egos, or your paying customers' legitimate desires?
