I thought it was bad last year. Wow. Are bloop hits followed by home runs coded into this game? I know double plays are for sure. Other than that I rarely run into bad players. Is everyone a rock star at this game. I cant get past players in the 500s right now. Maybe its everyone rushing to rank up for weekend classic. Done even trying i guess im stuck in the 500s. Pathetic. Game makes you really angry ill say that. Makes you feel like you suck. And I think I just played a cheater, that or he handed his buddy the controller.

Video games are the highest-grossing forms of entertainment on the planet, and where there are copious amounts of money to be made, manipulation and greed are likely to take place. Folks, we don't play the games anymore; they are playing us now. Most just don't realize it.

The use of DDA and the experimentation of using AI to complete levels a player has found challenging have all but confirmed it.

Ratings should not be based on the meta or randomly thrown together illogically. On no planet is 1999 Randy a 92 rating. He pitched 270 innings with 364 Ks but gave up 30 homers, yet has an HR rate of 67. Can we at least go back to slightly realistic ratings again? We all know DD is not simulation-style baseball, but ratings need to change; this feels silly.

Do you have stretch only on?

No, I saw him pitch against Chicago tonight.

His tempo and motion have gotten drastically faster; he needs a completely redone mocapped delivery.

Awesome my guy, thank-you!

I appreciate that. Unfortunately, I just remembered I didn't finish Swisher or Soto. Maybe in the next update.

Many hours went into this.

It's in the vault. The goal is to feature every legend from '06-'26. It's the last roster I'll make, and it's been a passion project of mine. It's currently a WIP, and I'm hoping to complete it soon. It will be updated until the servers go offline.

They probably fired them all last year, and we’re just now seeing the ramifications. During their dev tournament I noticed a lot of rooms with no lights on and a bunch of people maybe saying goodbye.

Studio is [censored] and should be. They didn’t even have a good run. You can’t showcase a game and have a developer tournament and embarrass yourselves as you did.

Cbrev smoked them all and got the [censored] out. Smart move.

With the rumblings from MLB regarding 2027 negotiations and the, let's be real, underwhelming launch and lack of polish and QA testing, I think this may be it. We may not get a game next year. I'm getting MLB 2K vibes right before they gave up completely.

@Jacob151167_XBL well yes, but he has a diamond at the end of the 1st Inning XP path (though you have to choose him over Ronald Acuña Jr.). For another one you’re prolly gonna have to wait until next roster update - if they even increase his rating that much

Hopefully, they subtract every point from the rookie ball pitching staff and give the points to him. This rotation may be worse than '24, and I pray to the Pope that I'm wrong.

@On_a_Power_Trip_PSN said:

He already has one?

His live series is a silver, and he looks like Japanese Barry Bonds.

Just do it!

It's great to hear that crashing and improving game stability are the number one priority of the update, but will memory leaks be fixed as well, especially when creating a player and having to save every 5 seconds because a random crash will happen every single time you use the mode?

See title.

Barring an implosion, don't sell cover boys never get penalized

@wrathius_PSN
This happened to me last year, and the new Storylines wouldn't even display. Support was no help. I had to completely reinstall for them to complete and the new stories to show up.

@aaronjw76_MLBTS said:

Because improving and QAing the game certainly wasn't it.

It's impressive that they charge us money to be their frigging QA department.

Funny how the shop is the only thing thats ever works on a consistent basis.

Tell me about it. I wanted to finish a big legends roster for opening day, probably my final roster, but will probably have to wait weeks because simply scrolling the cap menus randomly crashes the game. It's completely random and likely due to memory leaks because this company decided to keep stacking code on a crumbling engine from '07. The game's likely going to break, and hopefully SDS has an actual plan.

I understand that you can't sell bug fixes, but there are memory leaks happening randomly every time a user navigates different menus, and the game feels a misstep away from breaking. I hope I'm wrong, but every game that has unaddressed memory leaks will break at some point.

Every time I scroll through the "create a player" menu or navigate a page too quickly, my game completely crashes. Is this a known issue caused by a memory leak, and will it be fixed?

@tgn848_PSN said:

Still haven’t seen mine either. Hopefully soon

Message SDS Joe respectfully, and he should help you out. He always has with me. Just make sure you leave the correct gamertag. I received every pack a day later with Beltran.

If the random crashing is not addressed in the menu, please remove the spaghetti legacy code to fix it.

@Stinkysman77_MLBTS said:

@Taz0828_NSW they don't owe you nothing

Actually, yes, they do since they explicitly advertised and stated that this program would carry over into '26, and since OP completed the program, they are owed what was advertised by the company.

@DeleteyourTTVBTW_MLBTS said:

Funny thing is this is all a weird outburst because you wrote a 7 page “FrOm a LiFe LoNg ShOw PlAyeR” cry fest and nobody cared.

It even had bolds and italics and different fonts and stuff…..LMAO

After seeing a few posts and seeing how you communicate with others, I'm just going to wish you well, my friend. I hope for nothing but the best.
