i ask that an admin please refrain from locking this, i also am now realizing im posting this on my alternate mlb the show account. if anyone wants to play and experience first hand what im talking about add me and we will go down this rabbit hole together.

how come every topic about freezes in co op, or just in general and topic started on here that’s pointing out issues within the game an admin just so happens to lock it? i assume it’s damage control but genuinely i’ve got screen recordings like last night im on my alt acc and i was playing a game in HoF as im ranked mid 500s and my teammate is a random guy saying he’s in 700s. pep talking me as im brand new on a monitor with great specs and i get good timing lineouts and in the 4th inning i clap an up and in 4 seamer from the set 4 97 Randy Johnson with the Gold Wilmer Flores card over the LF wall in Hatch n Motor and i hear my partner cheer about the hit and suddenly i can’t hear him. i look to my girlfriend and say “well another late night freeze off. watch me get disconnected from the show” and guess what screen pops up a few short seconds after i say that? yup. “You have been disconnected from MLB the Show Online. now i’ve not had this happen on my main account usually on my main account it’s beautifully placed pitches in co op and the batters just watch my pitch as if they’re frozen cold. but the one ball that finds a little bit of proximity to the strike zone gets clobbered and i swear the previous and the following innings my teammate throws much worse pitches at horrible counts and they whiff at a fastball in the dirt??? and it’s fact, those games always freeze. they always freeze. it’s either 1-0 for 7 innings and it’s a perfect game for one team or it’s a mercy rule by the 4th inning. as if there are only a handful of scripts each and every game could follow chosen at random. repetitive scenarios and by now it’s so predictable i’m not even surprised by it i’m expecting it to happen. am i the only soul in this games community that deals with this? or do i need to evaluate myself here for the problem. the only other reasonable explanation is i have my xbox series x back on 22 last year as my linked account to my mlb the show acc and secondary playstation i sold the xbox once i found a ps5 and if i unlink xbox i lose everything i have in 23. also when i have my girlfriends switch linked to my account games my ps5 co op games are considerably worse and im never able to pitch myself out of an inning. i get maybe 1 good game that seems as if my actual input and timing truly matters and is the deciding factor if i get a groundout or a base hit or a strike or a give up a bomb. every other game its just like im destined for bizarre luck and as if im playing a 1200 plus rated co op team. i just ask myself this…”how many times can something be a coincidence for it to be mathematically impossible?”
