This year is bad. You have to admit it. I have been playing this game since it was on the PSP and this is definitely the worst version. They seem to fix one glitch and 3 more pop up. The commentary thing is comical at times and annoying but not game changing. The debacle with losing everyone's stuff a few weeks ago was really bad. After that, they should have locked it in and stopped the bs. But, every little thing seems like another kick in the teeth to us now after that. Especially bugs that kick us out of games or make the game play suck. Those things should have been fixed before releasing the version.

Hopefully they find some people who can actually put out a quality game next year and stop the slide into becoming another version of Madden or Fallout.

... disappointing.

Let me start by saying that I am a huge fan of MLB The Show. I have been for years and years. With other sports games (Football that shall not be mentioned), I have been a huge fan only to be disappointed year after year. Not with MLB the Show though.

Until this year. No Roster transfer from previous year? No Franchise transfer? You basically took my favorite part of the game and threw it out. Ouch! I don't want to make a mountain out of a mole hill but, I almost stopped playing 21 and turned on 20 again. I was so excited for the new version, like every year, but no transfer?!? Dude. DUDE!?!?

Why? My player has been transferred from season after season... only to be forced to retire in 2021. It is a sad day in baseball. RIP player transfer. It didn't have to end this way.

I can't believe that the 21 version just dropped and I am already thinking about next years version but, here we are.

Below is a list of items that I think should be included in the game to make it improve more than just graphics and rosters.

1. Create a Stadium... do it right next time. Maybe they will fix this soon but, right now, it is doo doo.
2. Editable Coaches. I am sick of seeing some freak standing at first base with a giant goat beard and weird glasses. Make them able to edit. Also, some of the ratings of the coaches are random as F. Emphasis on the "F"
3. If you are going to make a game mode that allows you to try to become a star from the minors up... make the story change from version to version. I hate having the same conversations with teammates and coaches year after year in RTTS. (Easy thing to do is to add endorsement deals to the mix. Make it an earnable achievement and, the better your player gets, the more deals come their way. A funny side task would be to shoot a commercial or play mini games for commercial images.)
4. Stop focusing on Diamond Dynasty and ignoring the more popular franchise mode. I know you are a business that is trying to make more money but, if you REALLY want more money, you'd do more with Franchise mode and stop the DD money grab.
5. Make a created player mode that actually gives more to the user. For years it was cool watching you guys make this feature more and more fluid. Flowing and dynamic hair, cool beards, awesome Homerun animations... but then you just stopped. How cool would it be to allow players to enter in their own image (head shot) for a baseball card for RTTS? Or allow people to enter pics and stats manually for prior seasons so that historic players could be created?

Maybe focus more on the game play itself and not the same old "how can we make them give us more money after they purchase the game?" Fire the puppets and use their salary to make some real, tangible upgrades to the game... and then you can sit back and watch the money come in.

Can you guys please give Donnie baseball his sweet swing back. A couple of versions ago you had his swing perfect and suddenly, out of nowhere, you changed it to this glitchy swing that really doesn't make sense. It really is his stride that is messed up.

I know that you guys are busy with a lot of updates and fixes... but I had to say something about it and at least ask.

Thanks!

"It's official! A combined no hitter!" Was the comment when I threw a ball in the dirt. And, you gotta love, "She's been on a hot streak lately, striking out batters." When Trey Turner is batting against me. It's the weirdest thing. I also apparently won the world series in spring training too.

Everyone should be fired for this version. The worst that I have seen. And I have been playing this game since it came out on the PSP. Embarrassing version.

Every time I see a new update, I can't help wondering what new glitch is going to appear after it downloads.

Are all the problems with this game all due to cross platform? Because I have seen this game spiral since cross platform hit. Not to exclude my peeps from XBox or Nintendo, but I would love it... LOVE IT... if things went back to how they were going right before they became multi console

Are we getting roster updates any time soon? It's weird that some players are still with their old teams even though their photos have them in their new uniforms.
