In my opinion most of the people in this community are good people. They're here to help you, and here to interreact with you on a positive level. Sure there's a handful of people that are jerks, but overall this is the best community for sports games.

@PaullyG24 said in Hey SDS We’re Not Laughing:

It’s seriously unbelievable. A 100% probability that in a showdown, if you have a runner on first and swing the bat, swing anywhere even, you will ground into a double play. It’s not even funny.

Anytime I get a base hit in Showdown, I'm like [censored] here comes the double play, and even if you get another hit, and have two men on base. The next batter hits into a double play.

SDS. Now that it's September 1st, can you please stop with the daily missions that are common or bronze. I would greatly appreciate it.
Yes I know you can skip them, but it seems like I get them often.

The biggest issue I have with moments is not getting anything to hit. Spending 25-45 minutes trying to hit one HR on Veteran just flat out sucks. Then when you finally get a hold of one, the CPU outfielders turn on their Go Go Gadget legs and arms, and catch everything. The multi game missions need to let us go straight into the next game, no reason for us to go back to the menu.

I started playing DD in 2017. I tried my best to collect all the live series cards. Came close in 19. Finally collected the live series cards in 20. I didn't spend a single dime of real money. I just learned how to flip cards, and got lucky with a few cards in packs. I needed Degrom to finish the collection. I had 100K he was selling for 159K. I went through my card collection, and sold duplicates to get the extra stubs.

I would imagine this forum alone makes Victor drink every night.

Like Catman9186 said you have to be patient. Don't swing at the first two pitches. I try to not swing until I have two strikes on me. I've noticed if you swing at the first pitch 9 out of 10 times it's an out.

The Rockies always give me trouble. They especially Blackmon hit against the shift,
The Padres give me trouble as well.

I'll add money to the bus fare, because I'm in the same boat as all of you.

As I said yesterday. I had 14 out of 15 tickets for Trout. I collected Snell today, and finally have Trout. I thought I would need the nameplates and a few other tickets, but I didn't.
Glad that grind is over.

@everyday__mj_psn said in I think with no double xp a lot of people will struggle to complete the programs:

Intentional walking, using the rosters of 99 pitcher vs 0 stat players spamming X to get strike outs, all still work for grinding xp, yes it will take twice as long, but you can pull up netflix, watch a movie, and get 30k xp without even looking at the game. The just made it slower, didn't take any of the brokenness away.

I wish they could ban boosters like you.,
I believe they did in 20, maybe even in 19.

I had an odd request for future Conquest Mode maps.
Is it possible to do something with the colors? They seem really bright compared to MLB The Show 20.

I uninstalled the game. Held onto the power button on the PS4 until it beeped twice. It gave me the option to rebuild the library/database
I clicked on that.
Then I reinstalled the game. I noticed I'm having less issues.

Glad that would make you feel better. In no way shape or form, will that help with any of the issues SDS is having.

It'll improve the read/write speed if your PS4, like defragmenting a hard drive on a PC.

I assume you're talking to someone else and not me? I didn't say anything about "me feeling better"

The center swingers of the world? I don't understand that comment. I'm not going to swing at a pitch that is inside or outside. I wait until the Pitcher makes a mistake down the middle of the plate then swing. Unless I'm reading the comment wrong.

Both. If I am playing online, I'll use the monitor. If I am playing Franchise Mode, I use the TV.

@SpudXpert27 said in My MLB 21 Wishlist (Devs are Encouraged to Read):

In FIFA, there is a mode where you get to play against a computer-controlled team. You play against someone's ultimate team but controlled by the computer. It gives you weekly rewards. I think this would be a great way to involve more offline players while giving them good rewards. Maybe this is how you get headliners next year.

Squad Battles. They have it NHL 21 as well.

@sickBEATS78 said in SDS please allow us to use the actual team uniforms in DD:

it should be unlocked in team affinity program.

I agree 100% with you. Maybe at 5 or 10 percent, you get the TA uniform.

MLB The show 19. I only played around 30 games in Ranked Season.
MLB The show 20 my goal was to win 100 games, and I finally did that tonight. Not sure what my goal will be for MLB The show 21.
I just wish we had a way to prestige players online, without playing Ranked Seasons or events. I get why SDS doesn't allow that (people would boost stats) but maybe they can find a way around that in 21.

@JediOfArgonath said in To my last opponent:

That’s not a [censored] move. I don’t know how old you are or if you remember Barry Bonds but teams walked him every at bat some games. It’s baseball strategy. Nothing wrong with that.

I'm 44 years old, and I remember that, but I figured in a video game it was frowned upon.
