I do not think I played the classic one. That could be the issue I was doing the TA one.

I have played Mini League all 28 Games and still am not getting credit for the easter egg

I am playing RTTS. For some reason no matter what options I choose I cannot get the bumper keys to advance the runner. This is also the same for player lock. I have tried both settings. Am I missing something?

Do I have to use strictly ALL STAR cards for TA3 or is it flashbacks too?

I played games before the crash and after and NO progress bar movement no parallel points... I mean since the 16th this has been infuriating...

I still don’t understand why prestige players are relevant to strictly offline gamers. I’ve said this before but is that +3 attributes really needed to battle the cpu?

The CPU on Rookie / Veteren in conquest etc is not the same if you have a complete bronze lineup and a complete diamond lineup. Remember the first week or so when you started with a pretty crappy lineup and won games like 10-1 etc.... well fill your full lineup with diamonds on same level and you may still get that 10-1 ... the modifier definitely seems to play a role. So 5 prestiged cards with those extra points does help a bit.

Seeing this years edition is unwinding. No new content seems to be in site it would be nice to make prestiging available to people that DO NOT play online due to slow internet etc. This would give players something to do (Grind prestiges and also maybe even finish off affinites while grinding)

This years focus was way too much on opening up players.. (online) Prestiging (online) Extra Program points ... once again (online) 4 or so points per day for online players = over 100 pts into a program which people who live out of the city could not always complete. Time to level the playing field for obtaining everything in the game. Let the bashing begin from all the ONLINE players.

I by no means want it to be easy... I mean [censored].. make it a LONG Grind. I mean I don't even care if they make the stats 4 times as many on veteran or all star. So long as it is still achievable for offline players. I am not horrible. I had 3 people rage quit when I hit a homerun... my latency is NOT always bad.. about 80% of the time. I am 14 and 22 which is by no means good. I can pitch well enough to keep me in games. I got harassed by 3 of the people that did lose to me.. as we were playing.. was called multiple names.. was told I buy all my cards... Yes I have completed The collections. got my last card last night.. and that was only cause I pulled a Gerit Cole as an after game reward! (Which was odd... surprising.. pleasantly surprising) I am not saying make this game easier for offline players.. but least make it so we are not forced to play "online" games to complete the game. I been playing this game since 2010 and love it.. the content has been good all things considering.

@eatyum said in Lots of unhappy faithful MLB The Show Players!:

Online players have events, RS and BR

Offline players have showdown, MTO, conquest, moments, play vs cpu

You can argue that those offline things get repetitive, which is true, but it's not like those online modes don't get repetitive at times to.

I do agree prestiging offline should be a thing, not arguing with you there, but they have added a lot of offline stuff each month, there has been plenty of content, both offline and online.

I agree they added some good stuff. BUT All the higher end cards are basically earned through? .. Online. The Rarer Cards.. Online. Should people who's internet is not as good and Latency issues prevent you from earning some of the same higher end rewards?

Ok.. So seems content is slow. I can understand that considering the working environment SDS has to deal with. But releasing stuff that people complete in one day then they go back to conquest or CPU games or March to October cause lets face it Affinity is the ONLY choice for a HUGE chunk of people that have bad internet whether it be. Router is in another part of the house. Landlord won't upgrade lines... people living outside of town (in my case) Latency = Fastball on AS = Looks like I should be hitting the ball BUT I am always late. SO that pretty much makes prestiging an absolute BUST for me. So the game has gone from equality to benefiting all online players... I mean they have events / ranked season / battle royal and a better chance of prestiging. So that leaves us "bad connection or crappy internet people with what?" We can play conquest everyday.. and grind out affinity... MLB players should not be forced to play online games to be rewarded. MLB you said.. Play the game YOUR way! That was your new slogan. I would rather grind out triple the amount of stats on veteran etc.. OFFLINE then attempt to play ONLINE. I have seen many people post about this yet. You released Affinity ... GUESS what each one needs ONLINE to prestige. Conquest (Stronghold defenders is wrong). MTO is fun but who wants to play that 24/7 especially since you do not get after game rewards very often. People with Poor or bad internet should NOT be punished and should not be able to complete some of the ONLY new stuff added to the game! I am not the only one stressing this point. Don't let it fall upon deaf ears! Least give people a chance to enjoy the game the WAY they WANT to PLAY! That was your goal? Your Slogan!

For the rest of yous hope you are enjoying the game despite the situation surrounding us... Game On.
Dehvid!
