@genopolanco_PSN said in Fathers day Vlad JR.:
I feel you. I haven’t even used the 99 Larry Walker because his 92 Captain is too valuable for my team and with his boosts and parallels, he’s pretty comparable to his 99.
Wish they dropped his 99 in Set 3 or really any other season than his Captain card.
That stinks. Walker rakes
So your telling me I cannot use the 96 Fathers day Vlad on my Blue Jays theme team since he is the captain?! Is there a way around this?
They need to either make captains 99 studs or use players like Danny Jansen that are less well known so we can use the stars and get the boosts.
I don't think SDS thought this captain thing all the way through.

I just grinded my 20th win last night. I did pretty well in this event but seemed like 9 out of 10 teams I played had records like 30-5 and RJ on the mound. Seems like the casuals have ran from this one.
Yes! it was a World Series simulator on all star. a great wamup for ranked!

Man let me start off by saying I love mlb the show, period. So far I’ve had about 10 “extra” rewards from from the 25k spin thing, give or take. One has been diamond, one has been gold, and every other one was silver. Anyone having “bad luck” this time around. I feel like last season I was being blessed with way more gold and diamond “spins”. Nothing serious to complain about, just was curious if anyone has been cursed this season like me. Go A’s!
Once you see a gold or diamond get highlighted hit X. Last 3 spins have been 2 boss packs and 1 gold.
It’s a nice idea but the “spin” is pre decided. You can tell this because if the span animation doesn’t work, the reward will still show up in your inventory. Later, when the animation does work, you will get that reward no matter what. Meaning that when you press the button, had nothing to do with what award you got.
Huh. Really?! Here I am thinking I'm Houdini or something I guess I just had a good run. LOL thanks.

It’s about time, he’s a rough one this year. But I still think he’s going to be a great player.
He's gonna catch fire! Way too talented not to!!!
@mjfc_363_PSN said in All Star Too Easy, HOF Too Hard:
These comments just show me how bad I really am. I’m late all the time on all star nor can I cover the zone as well as I should be able to. Been playing since ‘15. The game has advanced, I have not.
Try shutting off the pci. that helped my pitch recognition. Sounds crazy but by not having a pci its 1 less thing to worry about.
Or you can turn the pitch speeds all the way down in practice and focus on seeing the ball and waiting back. I'm not the best but this helped to get a little better.

@IrishFist412_MLBTS said in Sds is worse that EA:
I think people think of SDS as this little independent company that people shop at on small business saturday…They are not. They are a subsidiary of Sony…Sony which is worth $120 billion compared to EA being valued at $35 billion. Sony is not only bigger than EA but 3 times bigger. Bottom line - These are both HUGE corporations whose primary objective will always be to make money.
Being a subsidiary actually means they’re independent from Sony. You should probably learn how to use Google before you post.
SDS is owned by Sony the purchased the studio in 2001 at the time they were know as Red Zone Interactive. Sony will always have a big say in what SDS does hence why Sony' signature is the licensing agreement with MLB.
And just for reference
Subsidiary -
less important than but related or supplementary to something.
I think they were 989 sports previously.
@RetroGZY_XBL said in Anyone else doing theme team?:
Rays theme team is pretty good. Excited to see season 3 captain.
Yes I use this team as well. I blew it up because they wont be able to be used in season 3. Fun while it lasted. Outlaw plays well above his stats.

I have seen far worse. LOL 18 was dumpster fire
This game is heading that way…content has always carried them when every year the gameplay is mediocre at best. Now content is just whacky lol dinosaur cards and nickname cards, I don’t even know if some of these players actually had those nicknames.
LOL seriously, I've never heard of Larry Walker referred to as "Booger." Not even once! ahaha

Kaiju are monsters. Godzilla, King Kong...all the old Japanese monster movies...Kaiju. H.P. Lovecraft...Kaiju.
Thanks for clearing that up!
@The-Harvest_XBL said in Make the 1st baseman cover 1st on outfield hits?:
Once every few games, the opposing team will hit the ball to shallow right field, and I'm able to get the ball in quicker than the baserunner can get to first base. However, the first baseman never actually covers first base. This might be a minor thing, but it does cost me an out ever few games.
Anyone know a way to fix this?
No because those are base hits. No one gets thrown out at 1st from RF.

I think it’s broke on the lower difficulties with way too much rng affecting the outcomes. Above veteran the hitting gets better.
Veteran difficulty ends after you pass spring training. And All Star is hell. Game doesn’t become remotely playable online until you reach Hall of Fame at 700. Not sure what game your playing.
A the douchebag elitist. Get lost buddy nobody is talking to you here and we certainly don’t need your contrarian humble brag. You literally spend your entire time here like a bunch of the other clowns complaining about the complainers. You do know what that makes you right?
Wow, what a mature response. Someone corrects your false information and you pitch a temper tantrum. Just another example of a young adult with the intellect of a small child. Disagree with me and I’ll call you names and put false labels on you to soothe my fragile ego.
Yeah his response was tough to read honestly.

All he is saying is the game plays better on HOF online. Which is the truth. I am no where elite and I can make it to HOF play online. Also, you can play HOF under 700 rating.
Its been so long since we have had a gawd squad worthy Ronald. Last I remember they gave us a program for him the day after he had that injury in RF. (2021)
SDS, can we have some better programs like the one mentioned above. The only ones we have are just to complete sets. We are all hoping to have some better free content for NMS guys like me. Thanks.

@eatyum_PSN said in Some stuff I'm slowly realizing:
I still play, I don't think I'll ever quit
I think I'm 100% in your camp. I appreciate what SDS tried to do this year, but I'm just not as excited to play. I'm to the point where I'm wondering why I'm playing RS to get to one of 3 reward cards I don't even want. I'm kind of on autopilot. There are days when I don't even think about playing, and that hasn't happened before. I look at the content schedule on the app, and... "meh". At this point last year, I was looking forward to all star content. Now I'm thinking "Set 3? Ugh. I have to start over again."
YES! I cringe at the fact that in a few weeks I am going to have to start over. Overall this game needs different modes for DD. Conquest, BR, RS, and events (rewards are binder fillers) are just not exciting anymore. I have been playing Mini seasons on HOF and Legend to try to get more competitive but I have been asking my self "why?"
