If he boosts relivers, as well as starters, this may be a low key monster card for BR.

@dmc04005_PSN said in Captain Blizzard Drop 3 is the worst:

@Capt-Clutch-2K24_PSN because no one would use anyone else besides Waldron as an SP for the rest of the year. He’d be a 99 ovr knuckleballer with an insanely high H/9, K/9 and pitch clutch. They had to exclude him.

But does it actually say he's not eligible? I'm not near my console.

And does this card boost RPs as well? Or just SPs.

@dbub_PSN said in Captain Blizzard Drop 3 is the worst:

Wtf would we want a captain for low overall pitchers?
(And the bastards even eliminated Matt Waldron)

And another unnecessary Yankee card.

I don't see why I'd want a California captain either.

This is really not going to entice anyone to stick around with this game.

How is Waldron eliminated?

@RealPudgyPanda_PSN said in Refusal to enforce ToS:

The account/PSN eguerrero824 has boosted BR all year. He has a PlayStation and a Switch and he created multiple Switch accounts (they’re mostly eg### format, like eg001 or eg011 or eg008). He matches himself by using the two consoles and boosts to get flawless rewards. He also has boosted to get event rewards. I have reported him I believe now five times.

For reference, he’s now 892-3 in BR with a grand total of 1 run scored and 3.2 IP.

SDS claimed to have taken action on September 30. He was boosting on October 4 again.

SDS claimed to have taken action on October 22. He was boosting on October 26 again.

SDS claimed to have taken action on October 30. He was boosting on December 6 again.

SDS claimed to have taken action on December 6. He was boosting on December 9 again.

SDS claimed to have taken action on December 9. He was boosting on December 13 again.

He is still boosting as of today, December 17.

If you want to cheat at the game, buy a Switch. SDS apparently really, really, really, really, really doesn’t care.

What will be ironic is when you're banned for posting his info.

@TeakAUS_PSN said in Answer Just for your Favorite Team - One biggest disappointment in content:

I know some people get irrationally upset about multiple 99s, but Piazza is a guy that should be getting 2 99s each year (one Met, one Dodger). Not 0. I still assume they will toss him a captain card at some point, but I don't like the captain card art and Mike deserves better.

The funny thing is his swing is better this year. But they buried his card behind the worst live series collection so almost nobody got it when 90s were being used.

The question though is how much better would a 99 Piazza, for the Dodgers, be better than the Dodgers LS Collection Piazza with the Dodgers boost?

@TeakAUS_PSN said in Can we get more finest relievers and another C?:

Is it too much to ask to be able to make an all finest team?

I get most dont want their TA cards to be relievers, but when we cant make full teams of programs like this there is a problem.

By this point of the year every team should be able to make a theme team of non live series relievers, but most probably cant come close.

Same with Hyper Series, Pipeline Series, etc

Just watch how much you pad your stats. You could hit the XP Cap in 2-3 games.

@Easy_Duhz_It__PSN said in After captain blizzard drop 3 is that it ?:

From their Twitter account :

The 2024 Milestone Program, Showdown, and the SD Studio Conquest Map are LIVE NOW!

Get in the game and start stacking those rewards.

Keep an eye out—TWO more Captain Blizzard Drops are coming next week, with SEVEN in total!

I take that to mean we're getting 3 more blizzard drops after next week.

Or there will be more than 2 Captains per drop.

Could've been worse. They could've scrapped the program.

Playing an Event game. Got to the screen where it shows a few of my players standing there when you don't skip those scenes.

Next thing it shows my opponent's players.

Then the field. But three of my players and two of my opponent's players are still in the foreground.

Naturally the game was frozen.

@virusts_XBL said in Legend players that don’t have a 99:

Eddie Matthews has a 99 card.

Also Lefty Grove is not in the game I believe.

My bad. I meant Cy Young

99 Hilton Smith. Boosts players that played in the Negro Leagues

99 Lou Brock. Boost AF players.

@IrishFist412_MLBTS said in Something needs to change:

Nope…This has been done before & it’s even worse finding a game. Years ago….And I’m talking like a decade+, You used to see your opponent’s lineup and people could then choose their pitcher based on how many lefties/righties you had. It was absurd lol and took forever to find a game.

That makes sense. Ok, then maybe an option that you're allowed to leave the game, without penalty, before the first pitch is thrown.

I'd rather wait for a decent game than have to play at Shield Woods, in the rain, and against a full switch hitting team EVERY [censored] GAME.

Or, as I said, disqualify high elevation and created stadiums in online play. And if they can turn off wind; they can program it ro not allow rain.

with how online play works or 24 will be my last version of this game.

In the last 4 hours I have been trying to get an Event game.

When I match up with someone they either sit on the pitcher select or the lineup screen.

I've exited a total of 45 'games' in that 4 hours as nobody selected a pitcher or confirmed a lineup.

I'm that 4 hours; I matched up with someone and the game actually started 10 times.

Out of those 10 times the game was at Shield Woods 8 times and at a cheap created stadium 2 times.

All 10 times my opponents lineup was filled with switch hitters and all 10 times it was raining.

5 were legit wins, 4 were legit losses, and 1 was a win after someone loaded the bases on 16 straight pitches in the dirt and when the next pitch was a meatball down the middle, because they let the cpu throw it, they dashboarded as soon as I hot what would've been a no doubt grand slam.

25 needs to give the opportunity to 1: See which stadium your opponent selected; prior to committing. 2: Show the weather your opponent selected; prior to committing. 3: See your opponent's roster; prior to committing. And 4: Eliminate the use of created stadiums online.

If not; eliminating Sets and Seasons won't help rectify this series.

@TeakAUS_PSN said in Excitement for MLB the Show 25?:

I don't think its SDS call if they release on switch or not. I believe its up to the same people who think the golden at bat nonsense is a good idea (aka MLB)

Logic would dictate that's not true. The manufacturer's contract should have the first call as to whether they make one version or not. I doubt MLB could handcuff SDS to force them to make Switch, especially if it has problems or doesn't make them enough money to make it profitable. Same with any other versions, though I'm guessing there's no problem with Xbox or Playstation.

The reason this title is no longer PS exclusive is because MLB wanted it to be available to everyone.

@xsdert34_PSN said in Juan soto is a met:

For an average of $51 million per year and being a bad defender in both left and right field, the Mets drastically overpaid. The thing that saves Soto is that great bat.

@MeatSceptre1776_XBL said in Excitement for MLB the Show 25?:

Honestly I wish they would give us a ping indicator before the start of online games. It’s odd that that doesn’t exist already.

You should also have the ability to see which stadium you're playing at along with the weather.

If I have to play another game at Shield Woods, in the Rain, I'm going to flip.

Boom

I never finished the Negro Leagues Storyline (I started late -S2).

This seems as good a time as any with no other content to speak of.

See how many of them you can get to P5.
