It’s probably not the game itself that is the problem it’s the garbage servers. You can have one game with a decent connection and pitch speeds, timing windows, etc make sense. Then the next game you get a garbage connection and everything is a mess. Pitch to pitch everything is different. They could probably re release the exact same game next year but with dedicated servers and it would be the game of the century.

@killerpresence4 said in CBA progress:
Here’s a little dose of reality, in 2019 the Kansas City Royals had profits that exceeded 251 million dollars. Do you have any clue what their payroll was. I’ll answer that, a little over 109 million. The owners of the royals pocketed 140 million
Just to be "that guy", profits are not sales. Sales were 251, cost 109, profit 142 ( if these numbers are accurate).
This is the benefit you get by having a CPA on the forum. I provide this service free of charge.
Not to be “that that guy” and I have no idea if those figures are accurate but if revenue was 251 and payroll was 109 there are many other expenses that would eat into that 142. Stadium lease, insurance, marketing, and tons of other costs. Again I have no idea if the quoted figures were accurate but my point is there is probably a ton of cost that goes into owning a baseball team.

Dashboarding is annoying but I would take this year over the way immortals were unlocked in 18. Since essentially only online stats counted, the amounts were reasonable this year. Sure you lose a few homeruns when you play a [censored], but prestiging cards was pretty easy overall and happened while you were playing the game normally. If they go to offline stats again they will most likely jack the number way up and then if you want to do it you will be playing hit and quit for hours against the cpu.

Postseason Kike Hernandez coming tomorrow. Diamond defense in nearly every position on the field and a great swing with close to maxed out hitting attributes. Not a huge name but this card was elite last year.

I know the Tech Test online servers are down obviously, but is custom practice still accessible? After last nights stream I kind of want to practice pinpoint pitching before the actual game comes out.
Yes it is. I tried the pitching again after the stream now that I have a better Understanding of the pinpoint timing.

I think they are going to drag out what they have left to drop. I don’t think there is any chance 21 releases in March like it normally would so they will most likely try to keep dripping out content to keep 20 somewhat relevant.

Crazy thing is I did the yellich mission on my first try but gave up on Gehrig. Must have tried it dozens of times and had plenty where I got three done and got thrown out at second on balls off the wall. I’m cursed.
I was in the same boat... Quite some time later I came back to it and finished it. Maybe give it another shot after taking a break.
I will. There’s not much else to do this time of year. Might as well finish it.

I got the ps5 a few months ago and agree the settings make a difference and honestly didn’t know and haven’t tried playing exclusively with the controller plugged in. Ultimately even with all of the settings optimized for performance I still feel like it is a bit off as far as timing, lag, etc. When I first got it it was terrible. Then I adjusted the settings for performance and it got a lot better but I ended up hooking up my PS4 again to play. I’m sure 21 on the ps5 will play great. I’m assuming it is just something with a PS4 game on a ps5 where it is a bit off.

Put a ticket in. It happened to me last year at 11-0 it was during a stretch when it was happening to a ton of people where games would just show as friendly quits but they did fix it and sent me the br pack after it was all straightened out. I think they are able to check it on their end so they will know the game happened. Eventually the game will show up but it will be on a future br run.

Why don’t you all try new cards? Greinke is good. You might find some hidden gems…
That sig Greinke is the one card I have to have every year, well since his release in ‘19
In 19 his slider on legend was basically unhittable. Not even fair. Haven’t tried him this year.

DiMaggio would be amazing. Hank Greenberg is someone nobody talks about but he would another Jimmie foxx type of card.

He’s got a great cutter and I’ve always pitched well with his cards so I hope he comes back.

When I first seen this I thought you were asking about Paycheck Protection Program loans. I need to get a new job.
I applied for and received a PPP loan for my company. Then, I was able to file the paperwork to get the loan forgiven. I truly am a PPP expert. But not MLB the Show PPP expert.
Had all mine forgiven as well. Now just trying to get the ERTC.

I feel like it’s a trend that will continue but extremely juiced up cards. I know there are always tons of 99s but it seems this years 99s blow away the same card from a few years ago. Compare this years joe Morgan to the Morgan from 19. Compare George Brett to the Brett of previous years. Even wade boggs. I know it’s tough on SDS because they don’t want to release the same card over and over and don’t want to make a card worse but we are probably just a few years away from Tony Gwynn with 125 power.

I played on PS4 and ps5 this year and honestly there were aspects of the ps5 that I didn’t like. Something about the ps5 controller that just doesn’t feel comfortable and just the timing in general seemed off on the ps5. Ive seen a few posts and videos from people saying that in their experience the game plays better on Xbox vs ps5. More options for controllers and possibly smoother gameplay. I’m thinking of grabbing an Xbox for this years game. Does anyone have experience with both systems and any preference?

Yes! Thank you. I have had this saved on my Amazon list for years. I think it’s finally time to read this bad boy. Oh that’s right. You heard me. I said “bad boy.” Thank you! The last best league is a great book that goes through a season in the cape cod league. The rocket that fell to earth is good about Clemens. I believe this one is the same author as the bad guys book.

Still seems crazy that Mays, Gehrig, and Chipper don’t have finest flashback cards. Mays is at least in the argument for best player of all time and Gehrig is in the argument for best first baseman of all time.
