I don't play Madden. I'm wondering how you can compare the two and say one is a better game? It's an entirely different sport.

It’s not sport vs sport, It’s the structure of MUT vs the structure of DD....MUT is way better in so many ways. Just a few examples...

You can earn tons of coins every week just playing the weekly modes - Solo battles & Weekend League...The Show doesn’t offer anything like that. In the show unless you’re a great player that can go 12-0 or make WS or spend tons of time working the market you’re not gonna make a lot of coins easily.

In MUT most good players have a power up card that starts as around a 70 overall that you can spend training on to build them up to a high 90’s card. In DD you are completely at the mercy of what SDS drops to you.

In MUT you can increase your team’s attributes by adding different types of chemistry to the team, stadiums, uniforms & coaches.

And the gameplay...You don’t have the RNG that you have in the show. The only RNG is when non user controlled players like a offensive tackle & a pass rusher are fighting.

All that is bad man. No one wants that here. And you earn tons of stubs just playing stuff here. Way more "coins" than you can get on Madden. DD in MLB TS is easily the best fantasy build your own team type of sports game mode. Guarantee I am not in the minority on that.

And the RNG? That is 90% of your game in Madden. You cannot control all those other guys.

But honestly I think you are trolling or kidding because you did just name all the worst things about Madden now that I think about it.

I am still not able to make contact on pitch outs though. I should be able to rips those down the line for extra bases. So they still have work to do.

He will be out too soon. But maybe a bus will run him over afterwards.

I was worried about the LS collection at first, but now I am just a couple big NL cards away from complete. So I am right on pace with the last couple years game. Definitely dont need to spend extra.

@skepple15 if some is spamming KB every pitch then yeah their cheesing, if I’m using my whole pitch inventory and am EFFECTIVE then theres a skill gap. All the hate for Knucklers since the Dickey days of 13 continues haha

I completely disagree with this. It is actually opposite. IRL KB pitchers dont throw any other pitch. very seldom will they sneak in a FB or another pitch. The reason you are mixing other pitches in is so your opponent cannot time the KB, because you know it will get crushed. That is even more cheesy.

Just enable auto aim and track pitch in settings. Its amazing.

@JediOfArgonath said in What a game:

Respect? Dude made a HORRIBLE base running decision and was dead to rights. Dodgers just committed the biggest choke job in sports history. Rays were handed a game they didn’t earn. Oh well, At least it’s not a real World Series.

If the other team cannot make a play to get you out then I think you earned it. That is who you re playing against. if they dont do what they suppose to do and you do then you beat them. Could have went either way.

Plus besides all that it would have at least been tied regardless of the miscues.

Clubber Lang? You misspelled his name, 2 "b"s not 1. He hits you, you dont hit him. "I pity the fooo!"

Yeah kinda weird. It is like we are just wasting XP by playing that we could use for next inning. They really should have never taken away the XP reward path. That was an excellent thing they had going. Very odd that they changed that.

Answer is always event lineup

May make things tough on people trying to complete collections after Roster Updates. There are already multiple Commons or Bronzes out there going for thousands that have no buy order available. Just because of the huge cut back in pack circulation this year. And the game has only technically been out 2 weeks and 2 days.

Hello! As a content creator who has always been positive and all for making the MLB the Show Community a better place, I am wondering why I got banned. My team name is Prestige Grinders, which tells people that I'm using the people that I'm using to grind their stats. I could use better players, (Chris Sale, Rob Dibble, etc.) but I don't because they are not prestigable. I played about 10 events games on stream today. 2 Notable Games. 1 where a guy asked for a hit with Jackie (I believe?) and he got it. Lucky guy... He quit right after the hit. Secondly, I beat a guy 15-1, but I don't know why I got banned for scoring runs while he was running away from baseballs. I really don't know the means to why I deserve a ban for this. I have really big plans to positively encourage this game over the weekend and spread the good vibes with a 24 hour stream I've been planning for weeks. If I am getting banned for taking the stats that I never asked for, but instead received, I have no idea why I'm in the wrong. This very much shocks me, as there are many other people who do this, and are never punished. Once again, if you've ever seen my streams, I'm hardly ever complaining about the state of the game, but blessed to play MLB the Show 20, as a proud supporter of many of the games that Sony San Diego Studios have put together. I strongly recommend that my account at least gets looked into over the past 40+ games to show that I have not boosted, and that they can unlock my account for this stream that a number of my Twitch supporters have been working towards. Thank you for your consideration.

I have screenshots as necessary.

1-This is why paragraphs are important, kids.

2-Where is the proof you didn’t boost?

I am pretty sure there needs to be proof he DID boost, not vice versa, that isnt how it works. And then you go from there.

@UkraineSankOurs said in I won’t be getting this PS5:

I got my PS4 back in 7th grade but I won’t be buying a PS5. Next year I’m going to begin college, and while it may be nice to have some sort of fun hobby, I’d imagine new games will still release for the PS4 for the next couple years. By the time my current console is irrelevant, I hope to be starting my life in the real world, working a real job, hopefully getting married young and starting a family.

Life just goes by quick. I remember when I first got my PS4, my first ever console, and playing MLB for the first time. Nowadays, I just don’t feel like I have the same enjoyment for video games as a whole, just growing up and moving on with life.

Just dont fall into the line with the flock. Dont ever feel you have to graduate, go to College, get married, have kids, ect. Do what feels right at the time. If you arent ready for something dont do it because everyone else does. Enjoy life.

I am sure English isnt his first language. And I would bet that whatever language is his first we speak worse than him trying to speak English.

Slowwwwww. I dont think its a server thing either, because everything else is flying by. But just trying to move to each hexagon you have to wait a full second before it lets you progress. I know it sounds petty but it makes a difference over many hexagons lol.

It probably means play on a more realistic difficulty level.

Look just NW of Rhodes in between the islands and mainland. Or just East of Blackwater.

You know slide steps gives a HUGE advantage to the hitter right? They gave you a gift. Really hard to throw anything you want consistently while slide stepping. That is why guys like to get guys on base and tease they will steal. Even if they have no intention. Just to get the pitcher to slide step. Then boom! Ball goes 450ft.

Yeah he has been in MLB TS for a while. Never any good though.

And I am pretty sure he is a mammal.
