SDS… You better be prepared for what’s coming..
-
Not taking any action against this exploit and pushing updates while ignoring the community is unlike what PEAK SDS used to be. Remember when you listened to fans?
If there is another glitch, any indication people can exploit the game, without fear of getting banned… yall are in trouble. Everyone who intentionally stayed away, will flock to do it.
Also, keep in mind, the most anticipated game of the decade is coming out in November. Your money maker will be in trouble next year. But then again…that’s why you made the Mobile game.

GTA 6 will have virtually zero impact on MLB 27
It will most likely be a high quality single player game and a trash multiplayer game, much like GTA V. The people that play GTA V online will move to GTA 6 online, and most people will be done with the single player portion well before March. Further, almost all gamers play more than one game anyway. Besides, its not even close to the big issue SDS has to worry about
The actual threat to MLB 27 is the fact it is highly unlikely the season will be starting in March/April next year, if at all. A game coming off of MLB 21 might have done fine, but not one coming off 26 unless we see a very dramatic turnaround (highly unlikely)
The smart thing to do would be to scrap 27 altogether and go all in a major update for 28.

@Teak2112_MLBTS While I typically don’t think other games affect games like the show, I do think GTA 6 will. I didn’t buy the people saying college football would take people away. GTA is different. It’s going to be massive.
-
GTA online is already bigger than The Show anyway. I doubt it will grow that much, and even then its a bigger threat to CoD than the Show.
Again, the labor dispute is the real issue.
-
@GoozeFn_PSN pretty sure college football was more popular than the show.
-
I bet there's a bunch of people who play this game who still dont know there was a pack glitch and even more who didnt care that there was a pack glitch.
I think some of you over estimate how much of a percentage of the community that the vocal minority represents.
-
I don't remember anything happening during rtts glitch with diamond equipment sold in bulk so I'm not expecting anything here.

How do you know they aren't, or haven't, doing anything about the WBC MS Glitch?
Just because they haven't mentioned it; doesnt mean they aren't, or haven't, doing anything about it.
They'll never come out and publicly say their intentions.
-
I think an absence of information in these cases is the worst thing they can do. I finished the 3rd inning program so I stopped paying atttention, but I think it's a terrible plan to just shut off the reward thereby panalizing all of the people who were just using the wbc miniseason as a way to earn packs. Enforce the code of conduct. Reward the people who play by the rules.
-
SDS has been on the decline for years now. They don’t care. They aren’t going to do anything about it. You can either accept it or move onto another hobby/game.
-
Honestly I think Konami is going to take over the licensing sometime soon. They already have the MLB license, they have mobile game with Ohtani as the face of it, have a console NPB baseball game coming out, and they're the official sponsor of the All Star Game. Just feels like SDS is trying to squeeze every last bit go juice out of this before they're gone.
-
People seem to have a wildly exaggerated idea of "the community's" importance. The regulars on this forum represent maybe one or two percent of the game's fanbase, and even those numbers are probably a little generous. If every single one of you stopped buying the game tomorrow and convinced everyone close to you to do the same, sales of the Show still wouldn't drop enough for SDS to even notice a difference financially. The majority of the people who buy the game are casuals who have absolutely no idea that there was a cheating issue to begin with.

SDS won't but I'd expect the crybabies who thought they were either entitled to or thought they did nothing wrong to post their grievances.
-
@ApolloZ_99_MLBTS Even if that true, did it make people not buy the show?
-
@GoozeFn_PSN I mean it probably took some away since it was more popular and people had been waiting for it to return. It sold way more than the show did I can tell you that.
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS I don't know, brother. GTA VI is the most anticipated game of the past decade, and it has something most other games don't- the ability to retain players. It's a long term game.
Now, could you be right? Absolutely, especially in the (however unlikely) event that it flops, or just lacks content. And like you said, SDS has some issues of similar or bigger size to worry about. How the looming potential stoppage of the '27 MLB season will affect them, for example. Or how they recover from this general flop of a release

GTA VI will maul everyone in its path, including Madden, COD, 2K. Assuming its ever released.
-
Dude I lowkey forgot the league was in trouble next year.
-
@ApolloZ_99_MLBTS Do you actually know the numbers or are you guessing? Did it take people away mid cycle, or did people not buy 26 because of it?
-
GTA 6's release wont wipe out 2027 gaming. It will absolutely screw over the industry during the holiday season though.
