Only difference so far i would notice would be graphics. SDS wouldn't give next gen the advantage. It's all about getting paired with someone of your skill level (i.e rookie with rookie or veteran with veteran). If someone from SDS would like to reply to this they'll say the same thing. I've NEVER been paired with a legend skill level on veteran. I always get paired with veteran players.

I think you are confusing opponent skill level (human) versus technology. You can own a PS5 and suck because maybe your stick skills are terrible. You still have the advantage of a more advanced tech with the PS5. You just might not put it to good use. No one plays in MLB stadiums because the FPS is terrible. With a PS5 you can. So little Johnnie with his 1st generation ps4 is gonna sit thru 9 innings of crappy frame rate loss while the PS5 owner has a smooth game. This has nothing to do with internet lag either BTW its just a superior machine that can process information faster.

This is my exact fear. So if this is true, then PS5 will have a clear advantage!!!

Not to mention this stupid create-a-stadium everyone is so pumped about (can we focus on getting good gameplay before we ask for goofy aesthetic [censored]?!).

The CAS will probably cause even greater frame rate loss with all the way combos ppl will create.

So they shouldn't have anything like stadium creator until gameplay is 100% perfect? It's not an either or. Just because a game adds content it doesn't always mean it comes at the expense of gameplay. Stadium creator will have 0 effect on the gameplay.

But time and resources were used to implement that when it could be re-directed to fine-tuning gameplay.

You don't know that. They aren't some indie company, they can have a team working on gameplay and a team working on stadium creator. For all we know 1 person did stadium creator over his lunch break, it isn't a really difficult feature to implement as it's been around forever. There will always be things people want to see improved with gameplay every year, that doesn't mean the game shouldn't ever add anything else new. Otherwise we're just playing the same game y2y with updates rosters.

How are you making this complaint based off a YouTube video that you watched? This place is starting to remind me why I hate forums, you've got people complaining about a game not even out yet. It's like for some people the fun comes in complaining.

This is a really silly complaint to be upset that a new console has a next gen feature that last gen can't do. That's expected.

With no contracts(I'm a 2k player so I had no idea) I'm more inclined to spend in the auction for the few guys I really want. I can't wait to see how the auction works and the pricing for players. I heard buying packs isn't smart so I'm hoping the digital diamond pre orders net something valuable.

@savefarris_psn said in Xbox users:

They had Albert "Joey" Belle in 2018. And of course, right after the game launched, Mr. Belle decided to get himself into an altercation.

Hasn't been in the game since.

Awww man, just my luck lol. At least he's been in before maybe he can make a return.

Appreciate it. I am a baseball fanatic so it's been a long, painful, grind waiting to play one again haha. I was lucky enough to get a Series X in launch day, so I will be spending most of my time on the show this year. I'll need all the tips I can get.

After doing some research on what legends are in, or usually in the game, I'm really hoping to see Randy Johnson and Albert Belle this year if each year gets a couple new guys.

How will I know if I’m selected for the test, I just downloaded Xbox insider hub but it hasn’t shown yet

I don't know if there is any difference, but I got my invite in the insider hub last week on Wed or Thur. I did an additional confirmation/reservation there, although I'm still waiting to officially get the invite to download. Just make sure you clear out all your notifications in the insider hub to make sure it doesn't get buried.
