This is the state of modern gaming, an obviously flawed product is released to the public, the public posts negative feedback, many others in the community mock the negative poster, so nobody fixes the game because enough people express satisfaction despite its objectively mediocre quality.

It’s not fair that they exclude Mets legends like timo Perez and Luis Castillo. At least make a Bobby bonilla card that costs 10k stubs up front and 1k every week afterwards.

I’m sorry but the developers really need to investigate their idea of what makes a game fun to play.

There are too many things that happen that are out of the player’s control, and that seriously detracts from the enjoyment of playing MLB.

Perfectly executed pitches either miss the strike zone or float right down the middle regardless of the pitcher’s control and bb/9 attributes, outfielders make way too many errors that you cannot prevent from happening, and contact outcomes are all over the place - sometimes balls in the center of the pci are ‘okay’ and other times it’s a perfect, while balls on the fringe of the inner circle may get ‘good’ contact results. Then the actual outcome from those contact results seems even more arbitrary, square ups and goods are outs too often, okays and jam shots too frequently wind up resulting in soft hits.

These frustrating parts of the game even carry over to offline play, which in previous titles used to provide a reprieve from all the online nonsense. There’s no escape anymore, now the game will aggravate you no matter what mode you choose.

For those of us who have bought MLB the Show every year for the ps3 and ps4, I cannot imagine how you aren’t disappointed in what it has become.

The legendary sinkerballer Mariano Rivera is the obvious choice. His sinker was so good that it became the only pitch he ever threw. When you think of Mariano Rivera you think of the sinker.

Either way I’m sure he will throw a nice sinker.

So I klubered a couple of games in the event and hit a kluber off of his kluber and the guy disklubered so I got the W. Second game my outfielder klubered a routine fly ball so that was frustrating but then his kluber hung a cutter and I klubered it. A fun session of klubering.

Online play has been disappointing for the past three years. Not sure how that can be debated

Well that’s baseball, sometime you hit the ball on the nose for a lazy fly out, and sometimes your very existence gets nullified by unknown powers and you take the L

Please cripple people who dashboard during your home runs. Please do this.

A two hopper that travels straight into the shortstop’s glove, often occurs immediately after hitting one out single.

When you wish upon a star, it makes no difference where you are

If Tom glavine can throw 97 in this game, Jeter can get a diamond in fielding on his sig card

Another one. Lol.

People make mistakes, ask your parents.

Do any of you complaining have real jobs?

I do. What's your point?

Must not be in the design/development field because many seem to misunderstand QA vs gameplay feedback. Every single game/program/app released has been updated to reflect consumer feedback.

Certainly not, I work in the casino business. Not much crossover opportunity there other than enjoying amusing posts about pack odds (OMG i bought 50 packs and got 0 diamonds it's rigged). However it's the All-Star break and I'm in a freeze-off. The game's been out for months. They've made this game for years. It's ridiculous that we tolerate this level of quality.

Just another [censored] patch that makes pinpoint pitching more effected by RNG…based on user input my [censored]. Nerfed exit velocity speeds on all hitting. Big fail!! Trying to nerf contact hitting they nerf hitting over all. The worst show in 10 effing years. SDS =full and total incompetence.

Maybe they should hire you

Why bother hiring QA when they get their feedback from the people who buy the game?

I'm sure Prime and Sig Jeter would have good defensive attributes despite what the metrics say. Offensively I'd expect a faster Robin Yount with more power. He would be a juiced version of himself just like many other Legend cards in this game. FWIW he led the team in WAR during the 96-00 years when they won 4 World Series.

We should be proud of the QA work we've done

One of these past years it took them two months to remove HOME RUN from the bottom of the screen after a dinger. Last year it took them three months to figure out how to make outfielders lock on to fly balls near the wall.

We've been beta testing MLB The Show 22 all year.
