One positive difference — simming games in Conquest finally goes faster.

Dev team, come on, this is at least the third year in a row where the post-game Momentum rewards/penalties are bugged. The post-game screen routinely says you will get three hot rewards or cold penalties, but then once it’s applied you only get two. This is also happening to Player Boosts.

This was pointed out two years ago and still no fix, which is frankly absurd. Please do something about it.

What I don’t understand is that they got two new guys, and then almost half of the dialogue is exactly the same?

Boog is just trying way too hard, and so the tone is wildly uneven from one sentence to the next. At least Matty V was consistent with his delivery. Couldn’t they have gotten someone proven and consistent, like Jon Miller? And agreed that Chris gets buried.

F**k that. Seriously.

I do believe the Daniel Nava moment from 18 is the all time worst. it was just brutal

Those old “moments” were absolutely brutal because it wasn’t a moment — you had to accomplish them in a full 9-inning game. So many games I had to walk the CPU with the bases loaded to even the score and (hopefully) artificially extend the game. I remember a few people rage quitting because they got three hits with Nava (which wasn’t easy), managed to get him up to bat again in the 9th, and the CPU pitcher hit him with the first pitch. Ha ha ha.

As an Orioles fan, I’ll make you a deal: never mention his name again, and I won’t bring up the Tatis-for-James Shields trade, OK?

There’s a massive difference between the old missions and new missions. New missions — you skip to your guy coming up to bat, it takes 5 minutes tops. Old missions — you had to do them over the course of a full 9-inning game, so it took forever. Didn’t get it done? Intentionally walk the CPU until the game is tied in the final inning and then pray you get the third out so that you can go to extras. Painful.

I thought you were going to share some new feature or aspect of the game which might convince me to buy it. So your favorite aspect of the game this year is a lucky pack pull? OK. Congrats.

Heck you’ve taught me something at least. I had no clue you could sim MTO at all. Every time I’ve played the mode it gave you the option to save your in game progress and return to it later I thought. I’m sorry man that stinks.

No, you can’t sim MTO, but I mean that the CPU will sim in between playable game “moments” (and sim the draft as well).

Even though I have been playing for the past ten days, last night my puppy got scared when Shohei appeared on the intro screen. She growled and backed up, hackles raised, and when it cut away to him and his highlights, she yipped and ran out of the room.

Which, to be fair, is the reaction most wives and girlfriends have every time you fire up MLB The Show,

I’m so sorry to hear that but thanks for giving him a great life for so many years. The pain of losing dogs in my teens is what kept me from getting another one for many, many years, but a few months ago we adopted a stubby-legged bundle of love and trouble from a nearby shelter. I know there’s another Nestor out there in need who can’t wait for what you have to offer them.

I think he gets it. If I’m playing against the Cardinals and my team is out of the race, I would definitely be leaving a few fastballs down the middle for him.

Try flipping something other than player cards. Some other things are lower volume but higher margins. The player card market this year has razor-thin margins in general.

I had some Internet issues where it went down, and I was still able to play MTO. (I didn’t try RTTS)
And yes, you got the rewards once your Internet connection was back.

I like the idea of some interesting cards beyond the classic baseball card layout or a player with lightning bolts (ooh, scary), but the Takashi cards are a little too far, too fast for me. I don’t even recognize some of the players at first glance. It’s like going from the Sims right to anime tentacle porn.
