@geneticdefect89_XBL Hello everyone,
My name is Brian, I am 18 years old and I’m from Panama. I’ve been a big fan of MLB The Show for a long time, and I wanted to share an idea that I honestly think could completely change the online experience of the game.
My idea would be an “Online Road to the Show” mode.
The concept is simple:
every player controls only one position on the field, just like a real baseball team.
Examples:
- One player is the pitcher
- Another is the catcher
- Another is the shortstop
- Another is the center fielder
- Etc.
The mode could use online matchmaking based on each player’s preferred position. If there are missing players, AI teammates could fill the empty spots.
I also think it would be amazing to have:
- Position-based rankings
- Progression based on performance and teamwork
- The ability to play with friends even without a full 9-player team
- Online leagues, playoffs, and tournaments
- A social hub where players can walk around stadium areas, train, find teammates, and join games
Another idea I had would be starting the career journey like many real-life Latino players:
- showcases
- academies
- scouts
- amateur leagues
- and then working toward reaching MLB
I feel like this would make Road to the Show feel more alive, more realistic, and much more immersive online.
Would you play a mode like this?
