Refusing to include year to year saves was a very poor decision. I would like to sit in on the meeting where that was decided to hear the logic behind the decision.

The 7/21/2021 patch inserted a bug into the game. On ps5 in manage mode if you pinch hit for the pitcher with a position player - I used Austin Meadows - the position player will take the mound the following inning. If you go to the bullpen to bring in a relief pitcher you will be stuck in the bullpen and unable to return to the game.

I wouldn't mind it if there was a counter offer or some communication but this is strange.

Good idea, poorly executed. The devs should work with the people making those rosters to make sure there is a proper balance. If nothing else they should edit the rosters to make them work in a franchise.

Maybe with the ps5 we get more than two but for now being able to create your own uniforms and logo is fantastic.

Meetings? For franchise? Do you think they really happen?

Okay, maybe to discuss what to say when the community asks them why things have hardly changed in years.

Not sure why you can't update the UI some while still working on "under the hood" stuff...

Nick said they discussed it and decided not to include y2y saves but didn't give a reason. We know it's possible because it was in the game previously. I'd like for him to expand upon that conversation. Not improving the game significantly is one thing but going backward is a new level.

@jbrandt38 Glad I didn't waste my money on the game then. It used to be when playing a game in manage mode press the options button (ps5) and you could change it. I'm guessing that is gone.

They somehow manage to make the mode worse.

Thankfully it is gone.

They clearly listened to feedback and implemented a lot of new stuff for franchise.

My health is declining to the point where I'm not sure how much I'll be able to play until I get some problems fixed but it's good to see the attention paid to franchise. Next year Y2Y.

What platform? I haven't seen it on PS5.

I play every game during the regular season unless and until I'm eliminated from the playoffs.

You can get an instant trade if you control all 30 teams and switch over to the team you're offering the trade to. Once you do, just push accept.

Not the same as it was.

The more I read the less inclined I am to buy the game.

I don’t think you realize how many 5’7 top 100 prospects this game generates

With only 7 draft picks a year the game does a poor job of generating enough good prospects to populate the game with a sustainable franchise long term.

I've been playing this game in manage mode for a very long time. This is the best gameplay I've seen.

The fog of war stuff I don't see a need for but the gameplay is fantastic. Congratulations to the developers.
