Let’s be clear, the OP was in OhChev’s twitch chat last night bragging about how he used his profits from these back orders to sell to 3rd party stub sites. He is mad because this change is costing him actual money (violating TOS).
Love to see it. If these people put as much effort into the actual stock market instead of a virtual video game where the currency has no actual value, they could probably make thousands. But hey, priorities.
@dap1234567890_PSN said in Vault Idea:
I think it would be nice to add a uniform section to the vault where we can save our uniforms with all the details stored and not just the logo images. A few years back, I recreated the San Bernardino Spirit home and away uniforms from 1988 when Ken Griffey, Jr played for them. For me to recreate again, I would have to go find photos again, and then go through every step of the uniform items again. Of course, I still can get my logos, but I think just being able to download the whole uniform would be a nice quality of life addition.
I know this isn't a priority and don't need to be reminded of all the gameplay issues people would like to see first!
This sounds like a great idea. I always see great designs but always end up throwing something together without much thought. It would be great to download a pre-made uniform and simply tweak the fonts, colors, and logos.

Kinda seems like they just punted on The rest of this year
It feels as though they punted in March, to be completely honest.

@SDS_JoeK_PSN so you guys are now messing up creating things that don't exist.....you should make it exist, since SDS continues with market manipulation. Keep buying stubs kids.

With respect, the only "compensation" I would be interested in is seeing SDS fix the myriad of bug in SC as well as implement the short list of upgrades the community has been steadfastly asking for.
Exactly this.
@SDS_JoeK_PSN can we lock this thread? There will be nothing productive that comes from it.
Yes, lock a thread simply because I stated an opinion you did not like. I didn't rant; I didn't belittle the development team. I simply expected more transparency regarding this mode. Some of the gatekeeping in this forum reminds me of X or Reddit, and that is unfortunate.
Happy Easter, guys.
@Dolenz_PSN said in Video game companies monopolizing sport games:
Is there an exclusivity deal though or have the other companies just given up?
People have been complaining about this for years, even in years that RBI Baseball was still being released. Now, RBI was not a serious competitor but it still had a license from MLB.
So, is it an exclusivity deal or is it simply a case where the license costs are so high that being the second or third best selling MLB game (or NFL, NBA, etc) is not worth the effort?
Madden is the only game with an exclusivity agreement. Everyone has been welcome to make NBA and MLB games for several years; they just choose not to because they want to see immediate success to boost stocks, which isn't very practical for new intellectual properties.
Unfortunately, money is all these companies care about now. Every game they make, and unfortunately, what they choose not to make, is always purely a money-driven decision. So, unless an independent company with money to burn shows up, we are stuck with these sports games.
@TheBigPapa55_PSN said in Enough is Enough:
Enough with releasing all of the best cards through Chase Packs and 250k stub collections at the bare minimum. It's annoying and there only doing it to get you to buy stubs. The live series collection is expensive as it is since you raised the max price from 500k to 750k just to make profit from you buying stubs if you have a life and don't want to grind. We literally got a promise that the best cards in the game would be scattered throughout DD, but that's been a lie. It's either packs or collections just like last year and the year before (correction, not just like last year but quite similar).
The community will dictate what SDS does next. NBA 2K is the most aggressively money-driven, microtransaction-filled game and gets worse every year, receiving widespread negative feedback; yet, they continue to generate record profits every year.
If people are throwing money at virtual cards, there is nothing we can do about it, so everyone is better off enjoying the game for what it is.
It's a small thing, but could you please adjust it so that if a player's name matches a retired player's name/number, they can wear that number?

@Jacob151167_XBL said in It's Time To Offer Compensation Or Refunds For Stadium Creator:
It's been nearly two months since the game launched, and the bugs and glitches remain prevalent and unfixed. It's obvious that whatever code changes related to elevation have completely messed with the code to an extent that it clearly cannot be fixed in a reasonable timeframe.
So it's time to do the right thing and either admit it, issue some meaningful compensation (not meaningless digital currency), or simply state the team's commitment to a fully functional product as advertised next year.
Would LOVE to hear the logic behind this demand. Seriously, this sort of nonsensical ramble shouldn't even be here. Look, if this was an add on we needed to buy? Sure, I'd maybe get behind that banner. But it's a niche feature. A popular one, but a niche feature. Does it desperately need upgrading and extremely simple tweaking? Absolutely...but to demand monetary compensation is just...well I'm sorry but it's stupid. Absolutely asinine.
It doesn't matter if it's a niche feature or not; it simply doesn't work as advertised. That's an issue, especially two months after launch. I'm not sure which part of my statement you perceive as nonsensical rambling, but expecting a company to deliver a fully working, functional product, or deliver a statement as to why it can't be done, is not an unreasonable demand. Nor is asking for some level of compensation if the feature continues to not work.

@sbchamps17_NSW said in Created Stadiums Temporarily Disabled in H2H Games:
Does anyone know why they decided to do this?
Probably another bug with created stadiums that they don't know how to fully fix, but won't just say that. It's infuriating how broken this feature still is; honestly, they should just remove it entirely until they figure out how to code it properly.

You're not finding an attorney who would take on this case. There is no legal merit to what you would claim. A more productive comment would be to focus on areas that SDS can improve, especially with regard to reported bugs.
If you really think the replies you have received here are from people manning the gates for SDS, then clearly you have not perused the threads. If you had done so, you would see dozens of recent threads and comments from us indicating many areas we think SDS needs to work on as well as many reported bugs that SDS have failed to address.
I said nothing about an attorney or filing legal action. I'm not sure how that got pulled out of thin air, but okay. I simply requested more transparency regarding a feature that I would like to be working two months after launch, and since it appears they can't fix it, I would expect some clarification. Yeah, perhaps compensation was a stretch, but clearly something needs to be addressed soon.
I was trying to earn the Sox City jerseys, and while simply viewing goals and sitting on the screen, my game completely crashed. It wouldn't be a big deal, but it's happened more in The Show 25 than the previous 7 Shows combined. It's time to start trimming dead weight in that building; people clearly aren't doing their jobs.

@Jacob151167_XBL I'm pretty sure he's making fun of you for being able to look at a racist bigot in front of your eyes and not be able to see it. So I think it's pretty telling you couldn't figure that one out.
It's pretty telling that, of all the verbal drivel I've heard, I have yet to hear any evidence regarding Schilling's bigotry or racism. But it's pretty telling that this is how you and Rhino choose to communicate—quite frankly, it's embarrassing.
@Chrono_Omega_PSN said in There is a handicap in the game:
Your opponent gets rewarded on good swings and you don’t? Pitches floating down the middle on perfect releases? Check swings not going your way? Yes there is a handicap that plays into this.
All competitive sports games have Dynamic Difficulty Adjustment that can scale the outcomes of games to keep users engaged and maintain player engagement, which can entice them to partake in recurring consumer spending, a.k.a. packs and stub purchases. Madden, 2K, and The Show all have these same goals in mind.
Yes, I'm aware that I will be labeled as a tinfoil hat-wearing conspiracy theorist, and that is perfectly fine.
Is in the vault. Features some of the best players in team history; it's still a work in progress.
That difficulty, trying to hit Snell lefty-lefty, made me feel like the final score was 10-0 and not 1-0. Anyone else have a similar experience?
@LuvMyXBOX_XBL said in As a person dedicated to this game for 20 years:
just to be sure this is about online play only? not offline right?
I've really enjoyed offline gameplay so far; it's actually not mind-numbingly boring, although I wish the CPU hitters were a little tougher. That's really my only gripe this year, and the RNG and lack of universal sliders in Diamond Quest and March to October. I've also played more RTTS than I have since '19.
