More server error messages, lost progress in player programs, unstable community market connection on the web. Just another day for MLB The Show 21. As a longtime player of this series, shocked at how bad this game experience has been over two weeks after launch.

Well done, SDS. The Show is the best sports video game on the market, still delivering long after baseball season has ended,

Quick pitching might be the most cheesy part about playing online. It's a baseball video game, not a basketball video game. Whenever I play a guy who brings this cheese, I will hit R2, step out of the box or pause the game repeatedly to slow things down.

Even if he is a possible find in Conquest, Robbie Cano looks like an absolute steal right now after his price cut in half to at under 40K. Put him right in my starting lineup!

If I see Shippett pop up as the stadium on my screen in ranked, I might ask for a friendly quit. So tired of nine innings of the same old, same old. SDS should just make the stadiums random, at least in ranked.

Larry Walker when his price drops back in the low 90s and don't worry about right field the rest of the year

It's questions like these that remind me how helpful it was to have a game manual included with the game.

Holding R2 is way more cheesy then quick pitching, great post!

How is throwing pitches 2-3 seconds apart anything like real baseball?

The dashboard on the MLB The Show website is completely unaccessible. Was getting frequent error connect messages earlier but now cannot even log on to the dashboard

What’s the point in taking your time? Just makes the game go longer.

It's a baseball game. What's your rush?

If I buy a new vehicle and the check engine light keeps coming on, the vehicle keeps stalling out or won’t start, the odometer is giving inaccurate readings and the motor is leaking oil all over the highway, I’m pretty sure that in many states the seller would have to give me my money back if the problems weren’t fixed after repeated trips to the repair shop. It’s not like they can not respond to my concerns, keep my money and just hope I go away. Although I didn’t purchase a new vehicle for thousands of dollars, I did buy a video game at a premium pre-order price, and the product has failed miserably to live up to expectations.

I just pulled Charlie Morton. Save your money.

Stop making the pitcher waste time taking at-bats in pitching moments.

If this isn't resolved soon this may be the inspiration I needed to finally put this game away for the season and move on to something else.

If you want a "deal" grab Ted Williams now before he joins the millionaire list.

No love for Travis d'Arnaud? His hitting ratings are better than Perez, and his defensive ratings are almost the same. Foxx is clearly the best hitting catcher, but away from first base he's a defensive liability and as a catcher he's a stolen base waiting to happen...

Strange, post from yesterday questioning if anyone has ever purchased 150,000 stubs for $99.99 that had 1.1k views and over 125 posts in less than 24 hours has suddenly vanished from the forum.

Got sucked in by the Trout hype and pulled a 85 Charlie Morton for my trouble. Went in not wanting to spend more than 15K for flash sale and should have stuck to the game plan. 25K is pretty ridiculous considering the odds.

@genopolanco said in Is 99 Robinson worth the time?:

I only need 5 more points to finish but probably won’t unless we need that card for something. I only wanted the rewards along the way.

Why the heck not finish if you've come this far!
