I know I’ve seen a couple threads about the new wave of prospect cards and how some aren’t happy with them (which I’m not really a fan of either). I don’t like them bc they haven’t done anything at the highest level, but you wanna make some, fine whatever. BUT when 3 of the top 5 cards you can buy are prospect cards, prospect cards?! Nahh man this is dumb. NO ONE should be up there with Trout UNLESS it’s a legend or maybe a flashback. We’re talking about one of or the greatest player of this generation. What about that Miggy card? Those prospects shouldn’t be better than that card! That card is so special man and if you don’t know why then go look it up. Then look up how many guys have actually done it. I could go on but there’s point.

Yes, scroll thru your lineup before you hit start.. if it’s laggy your away, if it’s smooth your home.

Baseball is life to me, so I never stop playing. But with the way this year has gone so far, it’s gonna be a very bumpy ride for a year.

Minor league parks play better than MLB stadiums. And it’s the best minor league park to see the ball while hitting.

Great post guy! I hate saying this bc of all the lineouts but I actually had more fun in 19 to this point. The year is very young yet so we shall see where it goes from here. 19 had its flaws but [censored], just seeing the ball out of the hand and timing pitches was a lot better. Literally now we’re all in rocking chairs at the plate

@ItsaCanesthing said in Appears hitting is fixed:
They have not patched anything.
Just bc they said this patch had nothing to do with gameplay tuning doesn’t mean they wouldn’t do something without us knowing. It’s smart on their part bc then theres no backlash since they didn’t actually come out and say here’s patch whatever. Therefore they just sit back and watch the response to what they did behind closed doors.

Anyone have a clue how to play this difficulty? Having no success even though I’m a top 50 player normally.

Still April...
What’s that have to do with anything? It could be Christmas and I’d feel the same way.

@domdw99 said in I can easily hit the cpu on legend but struggle on all star online:
It’s game input lag. Online is going to have a fraction second difference from offline play.
Yeah, there is gonna be a difference from online to offline. But were talking legend offline and allstar online. Last year there wasn’t that much difference. There’s some kinda of timing window issue

@skepple15 said in Opponent rating:
Go back to letting us see our opponents ratings on this website, the game plays so different on HOF and All star we need to know what level we're playing on, this was a dumb feature to take away because some low level players got upset when people would search up their ratings.
Right, the world is so soft anymore. If someone’s embarrassed about something like that then that should motivate them to practice and improve.

Been down the monitor road wasn't that impressed. Not going away from my 55 inch Samsung with freesync
You can’t even take advantage of Freesync for PlayStation yet.. unless your saying for the ps5, then I get you.

@Whereismymind808 said in Now I’m heated..:
It’s a fantasy baseball mode. It’s not that big of a deal. If you don’t like the cards .. just don’t use them? Do you have a point? Of course. At least try to have fun with it. Or don’t play DD? It is what it is.
I know this is just a video game, but it’s a sports video game where ratings are based off of their stats and really what hardware they’ve earned even. Comparing a prospect rated the same as that Miggy card is like giving them an award before they’ve even set foot on a major league field. I know I don’t have to use them, I’m just saying what I think that’s all brother.

I mean you could actually spend some time looking these kids up. Watch some footage...
You can say the same thing for legends and HOFers from pre 1990s. How many younger people would have even heard of Larry Doby if it weren't for MLB the Show?
I say, save these cards for the players who have earned, and deserve cards with these ratings. Then, people can actually learn about meaningful baseball history, and not learn about some fantasy prospect who may never even play in the majors.
If you're a true baseball fan, you should absolutely learn who Larry Doby is! Well put.
The direction SDS has taken (away from history, more into this fantasy future cards reminiscent of NBA 2K) is a very bad one.No sport has even close to an incredible, deep history as baseball does. They have really dropped the ball on utilizing that history.
When The Padres number 2 prospect is much better rated than Bob Feller, something went wrongA true baseball fan should for sure know about him. He’s so important to the game we love.

@ComebackLogic said in An Apology. To SDS and Fellow Members:
For the last six weeks I’ve spent the vast majority of my time on TSN complaining about how SDS have ruined the game by implementing narrow swing timing windows that are totally impossible to work with. The ball is unhittable, I repeatedly proclaimed. This game is terrible. If there was a thread complaining about hitting being bad, I’d happily jump in and hijack the thread to complain about swing timing windows, I’ve sent emails and complaints and much more.
To be honest, I felt justified in my viewpoint. Hitting was impossible for me. By the time I started to swing at a fastball, it was in the catchers glove. Not possible to hit.
Fast forward to today, when I changed my display settings (should have tried this a while ago) which had reset when we had a brief power outage several weeks ago.......... And it transpires I’m a complete moron. Sorry about that. I’m kinda early on fastballs now on HoF. Might need to slow my bat down a little. Oops. So, ummm, sorry SDS. Sorry, general community, who read my whining posts every day. I’ll get my coat.......
Way to own it man.

Slowly stop playing around this time every year?! The year is just getting started my man. That’s crazy talk lol But cards I want to see.. there’s too many to name. I wish they’d surprise us with a Thome card though.

@JoeTheGamePlayer said in Quick Pitch = R2:
Quick pitching might be the most cheesy part about playing online. It's a baseball video game, not a basketball video game. Whenever I play a guy who brings this cheese, I will hit R2, step out of the box or pause the game repeatedly to slow things down.
Some people only have so much time to play and wanna get as many games in as they can. I’m fine with either way, you have to adjust. Past or present doesn't matter, this has always been done by some in the MLB. Holding R2 is very stinky cheese man lol
-
I agree man. There are a lot of prospects to be excited about. The future is bright

Grandy man and Kerry wood are easy diamonds to get.

And somehow this is MLB the shows problem.. lol How about people just start having some responsibility with their lifestyle? Parents could do better too, no? But it’s the shows problem, got it.
Now I’m heated..
Is there a way to know if you are home or away?
When do you usually stop playing the Show?
Why do so many people choose Shippet stadium?
