Community Forum

They need to fire who every their social media manager is. And what the hell does Ramone do their. Being in touch with the community seems right up his alley. The lack of information is what is most concerning to me. They make a generic post every so often on their twitter and that's it! At least be involved stay in touch with the community, let us know what's going on. B/c to the majority of the public it just looks like you have no clue, which is why you aren't saying anything, and that is alarming. Especially in a game that is considered grindy with a time limit. Baseball doesn't pause b/c your game isn't finished. Just imagine how much calmer these forums, twitter, etc. would be if we heard more information. Just be honest, let us know how serious it is, what your doing to correct it, and what is even on your radar to be fixed at all.

I get that in this day and age a ton of games are released way to early. And devs rely way to much on patching after deadlines are met. But the difference in SDS and even tiny indie game developers on steam is that SDS has NO customer support. A standard webform submission with an autoreply stating it could take 5 days for a response. This is not customer support by a long shot. They are dead silent on their own website, practically non existing in their forums. At this point i'm thinking they don't even have a social media manager because their twitter posts are way after the fact, generic, and don't tell us anything we don't already know. Their website is a joke, I could put together in a weekend. No blog with a roadmap, no nothing. I'm sorry but when a company is making up to $1000's of dollars of some users (Not me) they should have some sort of customer support to assure whoever is spending money that someone is there to help them if needed.

Just my 2 cents, I strongly urge everyone that has SERIOUS problems to start contacting Sony, Xbox, and even MLB customer support. Let them know there is no communication with the devs and your starting to get nervous. Maybe they will put pressure on SDS to at least offer customer support, or even help them. Thanks MLB for forcing their hand into this extra work load and server load on a years notice.

8 heated responses within 35 mins and you don't believe these are issues?

Every one of the responses are against your ideas LMAO

This is the correct answer to this whole post.

I think the OP is a troll. Or really just not a baseball guy. And oh by the way the pci feedback for opponents doesn't work right. So how do you know where his pci was?

@dfw_texan_psn said in PLEASE fix sound of PERFECT-PERFECT...:

PERFETCT-PERFECT sound is simpy NOT correct...

I'm actually a big fan of the perfect perfect sound change, it was way over the top last year. Have you ever perfectly squared up a baseball? The feeling of lightness is almost perfectly replicated.

Surely he can't think other people feel this way. Just like the people saying to get pin point pitching out of the game. Ummm NO just NO

@dfw_texan_psn said in PLEASE fix sound of PERFECT-PERFECT...:

My guess is you've not spent much time @ a ball game. You can identify the correct sound by watching a game now since the staduims are not so full. The sound of a squared up ball is loud and distinct. More like last years version.

Considering I played minor league ball for years, I would say I've spent my fair share.

LoL since when is Ramone a programmer? He's only said the last 4 years that he doesn't do any programming. Poor Ramone they trying to get you fired for the wrong thing. However, if he's not a programmer, I would imagine his job has something to do with public relations. And there has been almost 0 information relayed to the public.

I couldn't agree more, for years I was a Franchise and RTTS only player. Now i'm pretty much exclusively a DD player. But never in my years of playing did I think it would be a good Idea for the two to cross paths. Hey OP very well written!

No way in hell should everyone start at spring training. That’s ridiculous the fact spring training is even on Veteran difficulty is ridiculous. The only change I would make to ranked seasons is that HOF difficulty should start at 600. Now that is a good idea.

So you don't want a fair game? New lineups and new players? Got season under belt used to game afraid somebody mightv'e learned how to play and prevent you from leveling up quicker? And your ok with skewed leaderboards because everyone didn't start same place?

No, higher skilled players have earned there way to start in a higher division. Trust me players that are in division series and above are just going to mollywhop everyone until they get back up to division series. You don’t want that. It’s not fun for us that are good at the game HOF is the best difficulty to play on and we’ve earned our way to play in the higher divisions. Once you get there you will understand that even starting a new season on all star difficulty is a drag.

Agree i am not a HOF player. 600 at best I hit CS in 2017 and I did not really play RS in 2018. Played some in 2019 and 2020. Played more event games. This year only needing the 40 wins to get one of the WS rewards is worth playing for. If I played a HOF CS or WS player most those games I would quit because there is no point to continue playing if someone is getting crushed. It is not fun. Let those DS,CS and WS players start at higher levels.

There is nothing saying your qualifiers could or couldn't be against people that finished same rank as you. They could make it to where AS vs AS or WSvsWS in qualifiers.

Then if thats how your going to do it, then really why do it at all.

Who cares, thats the great thing about TheShow there are tons of different ways to play. If you think your way is best then just use it. End of discussion.

NO. 3 = Tell me you've never pitched without telling me you've never pitched.

Pitches aren't supposed to have (or appear to have) the same amount of break on both sides of the strike zone, hence glove side and arm side pitches. Back door breaking balls are effective when executed because they are harder to pull off and freeze a batter. And usually get blasted if the batter swings, (much easier to hang) pitch spin and speed are much easier to pick up. Arm slot appears different at time of release. There is no tunneling off your other pitches this is what makes it so easy to pick up. The longer the ball is in your hand the easier it is to disguise the pitch. Not to mention the more centrifugal force you get allows for more RPM's which results in more break.

But that card art is fire!

They fixed my account. Thanks SDS

I've made WS several times and never backed out b/c I was the away team. You do know different pitching motions also change how fast pitches appear. Example why people like nolan ryan and aroldis chapman have always been so easy to hit, but some pitchers are hard to get around on 95mph.

They might can roll it back i'm not sure. My bank is actually refunded my game and stubs lol the fraud department said they would fight it.

@etb_0910_psn said in can’t buy stubs:

Don't do it. Also, if you want packs just play the 1st inning program showdown.

-Draft a team, its 500 stubbs
-Skip to 1st mini boss with the bases loaded scenario
-Get 3 runs and win.. You'll get your 500 stubs back for winning plus a free show pack!

I'm an usually an 850-950 player and I would still rather buy packs then have to do that just for 1 pack. lol Time is money. I can easily replace money, can't say the same for time.
