MLB The Show 25 Review
-
It is fresh because the cards are new and the seasons are different. What do you propose they add then? How do you want them to change the baseball game so you don't have to play baseball?
-
@trfatboy22_PSN lol. Sure I'll give them all my ideas for free

Let me just tell you about the most robbed MLB The Show game you have ever heard.
Bout 10mins ago my buddy and I were playing in a ranked diamond dynasty co-op game and were up 3-0 going into the top of the 9th, up to bat. Oh, and almost forgot, we were 3 OUTS away from getting a no-hitter on the opposing team.
Top of the 9th with no outs I'm up to bat first and I get a base hit single. My buddy is next and by the time he hits a grounder up the middle I've alreadystolen 2nd&3rd to make it an RBI single. During that same hit the opposing team struggled making good throws in the infield resulting with my buddy able to steal 2nd&3rd and running for home when, finally, they throw the ball out of play to advance him in. We're now up 5-0.Since that play was so crazy I naturally wanted to clip it on my console so I pause the game (since I was up to bat), make the clip, and promptly press circle on my controller to exit out clip maker and pause menu in the game to resume the at bat.
In a perfect world, this is what WOULD HAVE happened and I wouldn't be typing this story right now and would be celebrating a no-hitter with my buddy.
However, immediately when I got back to the start screen, the game glitched and kicked me out to the Diamond Dynasty menu. First had I thought the opposing team surrendered, (I mean who wouldn't after that last at bat) and we won. I was immediately struck down with disbelief when my buddy said he was still in the game and I was paused (even though I was staring at the Dynasty menu). Moments later he said the game ended, he saw the results, and that because I had "LEFT THE GAME", it resulted in a loss for us.
What the actual f. This is the first time this has happened to me and the first time I've heard about it. The game has its many bugs like any other video game but boy oh boy is this the cherry on top. It just makes sense that a bug like that would happen when you're going for a no-hitter but God himself forbid in any other scenario you're losing or not playing well the game will work for you. You would think after years of releasing the same game again and again and again and AGAIN they'd have this figured out by now, but NO, why would they? It is too much to ask for unlike the $69.99 price tag they slap on this buggy, trashy, realistic-wannabe they call a baseball video game.
Long story short, figure your [censored] out SD Studios. And, I'm not a smart guy or anything, but, this is just a suggestion: when you update the game weekly with content and Live Rosters, maybe put in patches to fix this [censored]? Like I said I don't know anything, but perhaps that's something to think about.

@IronRegiment45_PSN sorry to hear that buddy. Yeah, mlb 25 isn't great.
-
@IronRegiment45_PSN anytime and everytime I have made a recording in this game or anything of that nature if u choose to open it during a pause you are immediately disconnected from the show. The game has way too many issues to depend on it for something like that. They can’t even fix the freezing in the menus

This is the review I wish SDS would actually look at . We've been getting the same Diamond Dynasty experience for years.
I can only hope we have at least 2 new online modes. Please SDS don't let me down.

Packs are a waste of stubs, there's ZERO reason to ever go into the store and buy a pack. If you want packs you need to do a DQ run. I just wish they would put more effort into making you want to buy the packs
You want a reason to have to buy packs? That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard.

My take is that I wish there was a mutually beneficial option where I could support SDS and still feel like I was getting value. I want more effort put into DD, with bigger programs with more cards and more legends and am willing to contribute, but buying stubs is near zero value and that would just effectively be a donation.
I don't want to gamble, I want to ways to earn the cards in game. If there was an inning pass for $10 each inning that allowed me to earn online cards while playing offline for an appropriate amount of effort through conquest/mini seasons/content in general (NOT just hand me the cards) I would 100% buy that but I am skeptical how many others would.

The only issue with the "Pass" is that it would devalue those rewards.
Youre essentially getting cards worth hundreds of thousands of stubs for $10.
Especially with the multiple ways you can use a "short cut" playing offline.
So SDS would have to do one of two things.
-
Make any online cards earned by playing offline non-sellable.
-
Get rid of any type of short-cut, which won't necessarily work as new ones could be found, or punish players that use said short cuts by banning their accounts.
-

I think it would be fair to make the offline cards unsellable. Or if there was a way to make the specific online cards only useable online if thats how they were obtained.
And if you attach the rewards to things like conquest and mini seasons instead of pure stats that does negate a lot of cheese
At the end of the day, while I suspect the majority of people that play DD prefer offline, I don't think many people would buy such a pass as it would appeal to heavier grinders and collectors, so its not like it will happen.
