This game is trash and I'm tired of pretending it's not. Figures right after I also got no shout from the bench while being a home team that the runner on 2nd stole for 3rd. It's literally impossible to see them run for 3rd versus taking extra lead offs during the windup.

I don't even know why I tried again, but it didn't take long for this game to prove itself, yet again...
Don't worry about the actual problems with the game, just add in chicks and give a trendy new menu!
Nothing about this Diamond Dynasty makes sense. 3 inning games in BR? Whats the point of a bullpen then? Finding cards you have with the intention of selling them is painful. You have to go through every teams list of cards to find one you want to sell? Why is there not a "My Owned Cards" choice? Making uniforms requires an associate's degree in photoshop. I also don't see some in-game uniforms even available to unlock in the unlockable menus.
Free Agents 25 of 100. That actually means "Free Agents List 2, I have 5 of the 100 players listed here."
I'm trying to learn how to eventually get Roberto Clemente, and apparently you learn to play this Risk/Stratego-style game called conquest?
I should give props to SDS for even having a forum for the game to list problems though. They are at least miles above EA Sports in every respect and the game is very fun to play. I just want to share about this Diamond Dynasty experience that I thought was pretty revered.
I've played The Show 21 and now got The Show 23. I've never played Diamond Dynasty on 21, but always wanted to assemble a Pirates legacy team that I can play online head-to-head with. Only way the Pirates can win lol.
But I have to say, this Diamond Dynasty has been absolutely dreadful to understand and play from a new user perspective. The tutorial was completely useless. The UI menu is very blocky and very hard to understand. I started out with some packs it seems, and ended up with two Yankees 81 overall players. So I want to sell because F the Yankees. I choose to list on marketplace, but it doesn't show what the competitive pricing is. I list for 1200 each. I find this "marketplace" that I eventually filter to find each listed for 466. So forget it, I say, I'll just do the quick sell at 400. Now where to find the cards. I find how to cancel the 'sale' to take them off marketplace. Now just to go to my roster and click on the cards right? Nope. Nowhere to be found on the bench and don't see anything for inactive player cards I have. Eventually find the two by going through marketplace filters and finding who it was I have. Like 10 extra steps it seems.
This UI just seems atrocious, and I haven't even played a game yet. Now I'm getting "network errors' on this Battle Royale option and I can't play anything anyway. Is this the experience of most so far? Or am I an idiot and this Diamond Dynasty really is nice to use if you know how it works? There are so many different menus and customization options in DD, it is just completely overwhelming. SOS
