A lot of people avoid Ranked because they are protective of their record. People play BR and Events more because their record in those modes aren’t permanently displayed.

Some people don’t want others to see a less than stellar record. Call it a fragile ego or whatever you want, but it prevents people from playing ranked.

What if displaying your and your opponents record was a settings option? I know that some people WANT to see their opponent’s record, and don’t mind if theirs is displayed.

So why not make it a setting? Something like: “Display Records.” If both players have it on, you get to see your opponents record and they get to see yours. If one player has it off, no one gets to see.

I’m just spitballing here so if I have blind spot let me know. What do you all think?

The sweats that care about their record are all in the 950+’s, the issue outside of the RNG, is the useless grind, if you’re a casual player you’re not making 900+ therefore your SET reward is unsellable, which means come July and the months following it that reward is literally useless to you. You can collect it for another unsellable useless card and then you can wait for them to release the exact same card in the next set or you can just not waste your time with online play at all and use the cards you spent hour’s mindlessly grinding in mini season’s or conquest.

I guess I'd just say if it's mindless for you, you aren't having fun. There are thousands of PS games out there, and 3 or 4 Xbox games depending on your console. Go play something else, no worries man.

No, it’s mindless for anyone with critical thinking skills, ya’ll got 2ked and your ignorance and SDS Stockholm syndrome have taken over. Enjoy grinding 82 moments for a head start on a monthly award you cant use in October, but guess what? all those cards you refused to see sunlight for…they are all going to be in chase packs with new card art, just waiting for you to buy up so you can play ranked.

lol dude you sound absolutely angry - like a very angry dude on the internet hypothesizing over things which mean nothing - there are plenty of us who are very relaxed, enjoy this game, and don't need to put on tin foil hats because of X problem or X problem - learn to enjoy what you have, and frankly - if you despise the game so much why are you on here all the time in this forum? if i hate cheese, i am not going to be a part of the Cheese Members Guild - do you know what i am saying?

I haven’t been on here in a month, so all the time? Bit of a stretch, don’t want to accept the downward spiral of this game?…that’s fine, just don’t tell me this is a great game because it is not. That’s not a tin foil hat response and not a single one of my posts have been anywhere near that. Enjoy grinding for nothing but don’t ever tell me this is a good game, EA and 2K are micro transaction heavy but at least they don’t try to hide it.

He has been serviceable, but not THE Trout of old. They sure had no problem dropping Arenado 4 points at the first sign of trouble. 2 points wouldnt seem out of the question based on that

I know SDS prefers stubs/$$$ over artistic integrity, but do you think there is a chance?

You got a 99 tatis in chase packs and a literally juiced tatis, SDS isn’t about integrity.The fact tatis live series is still a diamond proves they either no f*ck all about baseball, have zero integrity or both, i am just going to go out on a limb and say both, but hey! 99’s At LaUnCh BeSt ShOw EvEr!!!!!

I completely understand. The majority of the community prefers to wait until mid October to get 99 Griffey and Ruth. The fact that we get the cards when we purchase the game is total insanity.

Imagine if GTA5 gave us the entire story on launch, it just defies logic.

What 99 Griffey did you get thats going to get you past July? you’re not very smart are you? If the goal is to keep the casual community (like yourself) around past the Madden release, you don’t make them grind senselessly for a card they can’t even use up until the madden release. GTFO with your mouth breather response

Depends on what postion you need and how much income stub wise you have, there are a ton of great players to choose from.

Want to remind him that he can only use one next season or should I? ‍️

Dude it’s bananas that you’re an active member of the forum, the game has been out over a month and the set/season guidelines are literally on the homepage of the video game

You can use set 1 cards in season 1 and season 2

So he can use the set 1 cards everyone told him to waste his stubs on after july 7th? Oh wait he can’t?, there’s only 3-4 core cards that can be used year round so its best he wastes his stubs on set 1 cards? I have read the set guidelines, thus why i refuse to waste over a month grinding for useless cards, in fact there is no point in grinding at all because they are going to give everyone 99’s every set and probably of the exact same cards you mindlessly grinded in the previous set. It’s hard to believe you are a functioning human being if you can’t see the simple logic trying to be explained here.

@jonblaze2424_MLBTS said in SDS, I mean atleast up the rewards if you're gonna make us grind this much:

I feel like this year, they have tightened up big time on packs. I rarely see BIAH packs. Conquest maps used to be loaded with stuff to open upon completion....just seems much, much less this year.

I get it, this years game is geared towards those who can grind like its a full time job. Atleast throw those of us who can't sit for 25 hours a week a couple bones or something. Even standard packs help us feel like we accomplished SOMETHING.

Does it really matter? People didn’t touch grass the entire first month for 3 maybe 4 cards that they can use past July, but hey they will probably get those exact same set 1 cards in set 3 with different card art.

@Ericulous1_PSN said in Mini Seasons still special:

Good points by all. And I’m with you, I just play through this mode now to get my vouchers and PxP, just wish it worked as intended. Or wait…that was a bad thing huh?

If it’s not working, it is working as intended

@BJDUBBYAH_PSN said in Shoulda posted here:

You know what’s great?
All the people that whined year after year about the game being the same, are now whining about it changing.

People were whining about the gameplay being the same, not how DD was constructed. So instead of listening and fixing gameplay they went and reworked DD and because they gave all the bootlickers and noobs 99’s at launch that somehow made the game great? Its the august ‘22 patch with a bunch of 97-99’s at launch. Thank god I didn’t have to pay full price for this game. Fielding animations are still broken, hitting is still an RNG slot machine, freeze offs and disconnects are still happening…but hey did you see that 99 Lindor in the program?.

Bruh, you got 99’s at launch, stop complaining that the game doesn’t work, people who have been part of the community for 15 minutes said so.

not sure where you get the 99's at launch but sure.....
and i think you are missing the point about the post.
users would just appreciate it if a paid product should work as intended especially after an update thanks

You got your 99’s about halfway through the program, and unfortunately you didn’t catch my sarcasm, game has been in an awful state for 4+ years, but those who have barely played it and are garbage at the game will tell you it’s great.

we shall see if other games would come out and actually give sds a run for their money......

They won’t, but that is the beauty of spending the money you would give SDS on going to an actual baseball game. The money I would usually spend on completing collections is now going to actual games.

You can have the honors of that, this is so stupid this year, yah i said it. Sure i love my team but it's going to get so repetitive if we keep seeing the same players over 6 sets.

Oh you will, and you’re either going to have to grind for them, flip for them or buy them…best way to destroy what made your game popular.

@Malabarista42_XBL said in Your game has been forfeited:

I was just in a tied Events game and my opponent paused the game and ran the clock out. When it hits zero I got a message that my game had been forfeited and I got the loss. Known bug?

Sounds about right, only been happening for 3 years, but hey! You got 99’s at launch right? So don’t complain.

@mrwonderful95 said in Does SDS need to juice packs to make them more interesting?:

Personally I loathe opening packs. It’s just so unrewarding to open packs knowing you’re gonna get garbage binder filler. I don’t even get excited when a diamond appears because I know most likely it’s a low level 85. It’s awesome that they give us free packs but frankly, it’s just not that interesting. By no means am I complaining about free packs but opening them simply to complete the live series collection just isn’t that fun. I’d love to pull players I can actually use in game. It would just make the experience so much more enjoyable. I feel they could just be a little more generous with the odds. Not complaining just throwing this out there to see if others feel the same way?

You’re playing an ultimate team mode that has many aspects of EA and 2K ultimate team modes, they aren’t going to give you boosted packs unfortunately. They gave you 99’s at launch that you won’t be able to use in 2.5 months and will be replaced with slightly more juiced 99’s of the same player with different card art. Proper micro transaction model and almost identical to the 2k model.

All of them, because until you reach HoF/Legend it still doesn’t matter who you use, or in other words, any of the 99’s they have released within a month of launch.

TA was fun, the usual conquest maps were ok, online still sucks, looks like another year of moving on a month in.

Moving on to what?
There's no RBI Baseball or new Super Mega.
And why announce that you're leaving?
I didn't announce the egg fart I just made. I just did it 🤪

Any other video game? Real baseball? I would rather spend 60$ a week to watch a real baseball game…because I am a real baseball fan, not one that just shows up when The Show comes out.

Wow the sourpuss gang came charging to this thread.

The game you paid for is currently barely playable, you raise the issue on the developers dedicated forum and you’re suddenly a sourpuss?. How does the leather on SDS Doc Martins taste?

You, friend, desperately need to touch grass. I played without issue today. I’ll level criticism when it’s due, not just to project my own self loathing.

Criticism has been due for 4 years, never seen a single post from you on here until today. So sir you desperately need to look at what you consider worthy of a complaint as a consumer. You’re just another waste of sperm and you’re parents are just another waste of oxygen to me

Stay classy.
