Either way the sentiment is, SDS is continuing to make the mistake of trying to make everyone happy.
Uuuuuhhhhh how?? Who have they tried to make happy?
People who complained about too much grinding, by now have far less programs with minimal amount of effort. Didn't say they did a good job. But that's clearly what I see.

SDS's biggest blunder this year? For me, DD is boring (the worst adjective you can use for a video game). I like the gameplay this year, probably as much as any year since I started DD in 2020. But I'm bored out of my skull. There are multiple days when I don't play, which has never happened for me this early in the cycle.

Me: "Gee, doc, I've been having some pain in my left foot."
Doc: "Well we can't have that now can we!??" proceeds to saw foot off -

Another example.
MLB the show 20: "there are too many check swings!"
SDS: ok, now it's nearly impossible to check swing.

@nflman2033_MLBTS The ONLY issue I've ever had with check swings is the pressure and timing of them. I don't mind them. I don't understand the arguments cause I don't feel gameplay quality damaged by it in my games.
It's kind of 50/50 chance the batter loses the check to the ump so it can't really be abused at least in my games. In fact I like it many times as a pitcher cause you get to sword people and it feels quite good to juke a batter in a non pitching meta.Sorry, I've digressed.

But since DD guys have high Disc it was too easy, people got upset all the time, now no matter who I have at the plate a check swing is completely random and most of the time its a swing no matter if I use contact swing or not.
DD people don't complain, but talk to people who play offline non DD modes.

@nflman2033_MLBTS I think I get that. I don't play offline or do moments because they don't entertain me like pvp does.

@nflman2033_MLBTS Totally agree. But I totally believe that if you put up a smart survey, the main problem points would be
- Not enough content
- Too much content
- Content too easy
- Content too hard
- Too much grinding
- Not enough to do
I don't think I've ever seen Too Much Content EVER mentioned about TS24. Nor have I seen too hard. But I can say I've seen all of the other ones.
I think all of that is wrapped up inside of the "too much grinding" statement.
Either way the sentiment is, SDS is continuing to make the mistake of trying to make everyone happy.
SDS has not tried to make the people who liked last years content (programs, mini seasons, etc) happy. They have told us [censored] off, play something else.
Retro ASG program is a joke. Guess I'm done with 2024 sadly.

No, they can't. It's obvious this year they are shooting for making the people who don't want a lot of grinding happy.
Trust me, I am firmly on the camp of wanting a lot of stat grinding, so I don't like 24 for DD.

It's fine. The gameplay is good, much better than previous years. I think the hitting feels really good. It just feels like it's half a game.
The programs are so so short, I only feel like playing a bit for 2 or 3 days a week. No urge to start it up like Mon-Thurs.I don't like the changes to the monthly awards to a weekly awards. I liked the longer track and having a monthly captain. I liked when there were way more captains in general. Now you just get I think it's like 10(?) team captains between hitting & pitching to pick between all teams. And it's the same ones all year, so as a Brewers fan, it's just the same terrible Rowdy Tellez hitting captain all year. I preferred the TA track where you got one for each team, each season.

DD people don't complain? There are a few streamers out there that are complaining in every single one of their streams about how bad the model is this year for online play.

About check swings after 20?
That is specifically what I am talking about. Back on 20 I could check swing vs the CPU on HOF and Legend. But on 22 and 24, didn't play 21 or 23, they are random AF. -
@soulshred99_PSN it's great.
We just need a little bit more consistentcy and some performance boosts on last gen consoles and we are 100% -

LMAO bro, that's not what these people wanna hear.

I love the soundtrack

This years game to me is the worse one they have come out with. Having to rebuild a team aucks but would be better if they actually gave us better cards to take the field with. I don't need a 99 ovr team but [censored] let me get at least between 93 and 95

@AdeptOfMemory_PSN nothing wrong with other miscellaneous feedback. Isn't that the point to address issues and get them fixed?

The biggest argument on behalf of SDS from their supporters on the forums is that ALL of the problems are due to previous gen consoles.
If you criticize the games unpolished nature or its bugs is simply "it's because last gen support! SDS needs to drop old gen!" -
No they don't, a majority of people still play on the old Gen consoles, forcing people to pay for a new console with the way that they price things like food and other stuff is out of control thus why they can't afford the new console, unless of course your rich
