I only preordered on Series X last year because I didn't get a PS5 until October. Everything came over fine when I merged. I mean if there is a very specific glitch you are referring to only in regards to preorder stuff I've never heard of it. I do remember some people saying their stuff disappeared after linking but pretty sure SDS straightened all that out. Don't think that was about preorder stuff.

You didn't merge though. It sounds like you played on Xbox first, and eventually starting playing on Playstation and you were able to link the accounts so that the Xbox cards and stubs showed up on the Playstation.

That is completely different from playing on the Playstation, playing on the Xbox, and then merging all the cards and stubs you've earned on both, which is essentially what would be happening by combining pre-order bonuses. You would be combining the inventory from two different consoles, which I don't think is possible with the system they have in place unless something has changed this year.

My thinking on this is potentially you could link the switch and PS5 accounts before starting the game, then they would be linked from the beginning and you would open packs and the players would be visible on both?
I don’t even care about the double bonus, I just want to know if I would be wasting my money by pre-ordering the digital deluxe version twice

If you preorder on both systems you're entitled to those bonuses. They probably haven't addressed it because it should be obvious. Can you imagine paying $100 X 2 and only getting $60 worth for one version? Not the same as when they gift a card like Ohtani that is tied to your profile and only available the first time you claim it on whatever system. These are redeemed rewards specific to each system's storefront.

You know the more I keep re-reading your post I don't think I understand your question lol

Sorry should have been more clear.

I want to pre order on both systems - but I’ve seen when you link accounts they don’t merge, it picks one system to use as the “primary” - meaning that it ignores any cards on the other account (including the bonuses).
I’m wondering if anyone bought on both PS and Xbox last year and can confirm if and how they got both pre order bonuses on the same DD account

I’m looking to get both the PS and Switch Digital Deluxe versions and I can’t seem to find clear info anywhere on if the pre order bonuses (cards etc) carry over when accounts are linked?

Does anyone have any experience with how the account linking process works for cross platform rewards? If you ordered on both PS and Xbox last year did the pre order cards come across when you linked?

I understand stubs don’t transfer over - but I’m envisioning that you link accounts before starting the game, then open packs on each console separately and all the diamond player bonuses would be available on both consoles as the accounts are already linked?

I’m not too fussed either way, but just don’t want to rip myself off if you don’t get the rewards twice.

Has anyone gotten a concrete answer on this? I feel like this would be a pretty common occurrence this year with people wanting to play on PS/XB and portable on switch. Have been trying to hold off on pre ordering until we have an answer so I don’t waste money, but it’s cutting it close

Also wondering about this, did anyone get a response from SDS? I’m looking to purchase on both PS5 and switch but will mostly play on PS5. Not fussed if the bonuses don’t carry over but don’t want to short change myself if they do

Major crashes in RTTS since this update, mainly when successfully stealing bases or trying to slide into a base. Anyone else having the same issue? On PS5

Whatever they have done seems to be working - hopefully it stays that way!

Completely down now, hasn’t been accessible in over 4 hours. is there any plan to have the website work properly or is that just a pipe dream?

5 days now

I’d also like to know when we are going to get a usable Web market - it’s not usable at all in its current state

Up for 5 mins then down again. Come on SDS it’s time for your nightly scheduled tweet

Same with the umbrella conquest. What’s the point of having it in the game if it’s going to crash during the middle of every single game and not track anything. @SDS either fix it or take the servers down until you can be sure they are stable. This is beyond a joke

This is your fault

Not everyone is out here trying to flip stubs, these people probably just want to offload cards as quickly as possible

While we’re at it, what’s with the out of position animations for secondary positions? Is this a bug? My ballplayer has SS as a secondary (or C) but can’t field a ball or make a throw

Remind me again why I payed to “play” this game?

Any chance of a working website? If it’s going to crash just take it down so we stop trying

this has taken away my 3 prime hours of game time here on the east coast of Australia, Id be fine if this was a once off but every night is becoming so frustrating.

Imagine your servers being so bad that you can’t even handle website traffic. Why even bother having the market available on the website if it’s quicker for us to log in to the game and place orders there. This is getting ridiculous

Are you kidding with this nonsense? Why are you taking peoples money for a product that doesn't work.

This has been unbelievable. 1 statement 3 days ago and that’s it? It would be better to just take the servers down at this point until they are fixed. What a massive waste of time so far.
