@ralph13m_PSN said in Game crashing everytime I try and load my franchise save file:

Ditto. I've had it happen multiple times. Wrote several big reports to no avail. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Tried with internet disabled. Nothing. Nothing. And, nothing. Why should SDS care anyway? They've got our money now. Too busy making themselves as playable characters in the game to give a [censored]. Maybe a class action suit for defrauding the consumer should be in order.

My buddy who is studying law literally said this the other day to me about this crashing going on and them not taking any accountability or at least acknowledging it on Twitter at least to say you know we’re looking into it and will get resolved soon. He said it’s defrauding. For example look what happened to cyberpunk. MLB has been out 2 months ONLY it’s unplayable in ANY MODE at the moment. He said they would have to have a good amount of complaints regarding the same thing and then they would have to fix it because somebody could take a step further.

Another example he said when cars get recalled how does it happen ? Because numerous amount of people complain about the same exact thing of the vehicle having issues and then the the NHTSA investigates it and then sees there is a issue with the vehicle then gets recalled. Same thing here I’m not sure who investigates gaming companies if it becomes an issue but yeah he said at this point so far it’s a defective game.

@Doppelganger39 said in MLB The Show 24 ?:

They release 3 past gen after next gen is launched, been doing it since 07, is the current game the 3rd since the PS5/New Xbox launch?

Yeah the show 21,22 and now 23 so this is the 3rd year

Tell Ramone Russell to do his job

Any updates to roster today ? I haven’t seen anything

Tell Ramone or hopefully you’re reading this fix franchise mode stop playing around

What’s going on with the crashing ? I’m currently on vacation so I haven’t been on…. I’m really hoping when playing franchise mode you get to the 7th or sometimes 8th inning and the game crashes and you have to start the game all over again because this was happening last year as well I’m really hoping that’s not happening

Do your job and fix Franchise mode

@SilverQ73_NSW said in Crashing:

So some good news. I played 2 Vs. Computer games today and managed to get through them. Is anyone having any more luck today than the last few days. I’m hesitant to get excited if people are still consistently getting crashes.

Still crashing for me

I just made a new post whoever is experiencing crashing to send a bug today so that we can get their attention and fix it asap instead of later

I know franchise mode was not on the feature calendar list which makes me disappointed but does anybody at least think if they’re going to touch anything I mean absolutely anything on franchise mode ? Or is it just literally going to be a copy and paste ?

I just happened to come across a YouTube video “Evolution of MLB games (1996-2023)” I kid you not people the graphics that I saw of MLB the show 16 to current the show 23 it was literally not much different I cannot believe this company has been getting away with this for so long lol it’s mind blowing

@Spin_Doctor01 said in Can't carry over 22 franchises into 23:

If you're mainly a franchise guy, there's no reason to buy a new game at this point because SDS isn't offering anything new. You shouldn't have to pay full price for a new playoff schedule, or removal of the shift. That should just be a patch.

I am a franchise guy and I totally agree with you 100% with what you said. But I can definitely say they're are new things coming to franchise it’s confirmed on their game description. How I found this out is on the PlayStation store you go and choose what version of the game you want and scroll all the way down on description of the game and I will quote this from exactly what it says “ FRANCHISE
Manage, build, and lead your team to World Series glory to become an annual powerhouse in Franchise Mode. Experience new features providing more in-depth and dynamic gameplay from March to October”

So that caught my attention it said NEW FEATURES MORE IN-DEPTH is what really really caught my eye. Also seems like combining something from March to October into franchise mode really curious to see what that is about. These last 2 features premiers definitely one of them has to be about franchise I’m like 99% sure it will be after seeing this.

@darkblue1876_PSN said in OMG:

As someone who is on a PS4, and had stopped playing since the PS2, honestly some graphics really are NOT that much better. Most of these are not that important to me personally. Regarding the players and uniforms they look better, but some of the faces don't really look that great. The scoreboard player photos look very "PS2".

If you look at the pine trees in the Colorado hitting background during the between innings shot it looks like something someone copied and pasted from an 90's photoshop. The stadiums look good, but on some outfield "grass cut patterns" I can see the line where the grass inserted image ends and where the line for the next inserted image begins. Sorry I lack the terminology to properly describe this or look at the flower bed in the Yankee Stadium monument area and it also looks really weak.

But the worst of them all, and the only ones that truly bother me is when you get a close up of a player in the on deck circle or between innings, the fans look like something out of Tomb Raider 1.

Again, The game does look overall better than when i played many moons ago, but even for a PS4 it does not "wow" me either. Then again, I am just glad to have a console and am playing again.

100% agree with you this is what I was trying to say by my post I don’t know why those few dudes up there in the comments saying I was blind lol

@ProfessorChad_XBL said in Bug report ?:

How do you do that?

Just write on google MLB the show report a bug and then you’ll see the link for it and you’ll see what to do

I would like for all of us who have experienced this issue the game crashing into whatever inning is happening if we all send a bug report then maybe they’ll fix it asap instead of later

It’s very concerning that they still haven’t at least acknowledged on Twitter about the crashing I mean this same thing happened in 22 and I did and I’m sure other people did as well send in emails and proof of the crashing and the error code that I got and they did fix it couple weeks after so hopefully that happens here as well. I mean it’s got to right ? I seen on Twitter about the tournament happening soon can’t have a tournament with a game crashing right that would be embarrassing lol….. I mean this is every game mode in the game crashing that’s just crazy after 2 month release

@Collin_SDS_PSN

My buddy the other day did some digging on WIKI and found some interesting information regarding EA and this quote for quote what it said “ EA acquired Metalhead Software in May 2021, the developers of the Super Mega Baseball series. EA stated that they are looking to taking the core aspects of that series to integrate with licensing from MLB to publish a licensed baseball game again in the future.” which we both found very very interesting.

I think MLB the show 23 is good but it should be better and SDS needs competition to make a better game and I think it’s time to worry whatever EA has in mind because whatever the “future” means whenever that is but they’re coming

@MetalNuck_XBL said in EA is coming… SDS to worry ?:

SMB will always be arcade baseball first. It was never about realism and simulation. It would be like EA worrying about All Pro Football 2K8 dethroning Madden. While APF and SMB are excellent games in their own right, it comes down to who holds the official license.

If the landscape was different and MLB sold the rights to EA, 2K and SDS to make their own MLB game, then there would be a discussion. MVP Baseball, MLB The Show and MLB 2K all at once would make for quite a battle.

Yeah I agree I just hope whatever EA is planning that they do make a simulation baseball game so that SDS gets a competitor to make a better product.

@Rabid55Wolverine said in EA is coming… SDS to worry ?:

I dont think any company worries too much about EA and sports titles. People said the same when they brought back NBA and what happened? 2k baseball crumbled as well. I don't think the show has to worry. I wish they would though because it would make a better product by being pushed.

That’s what I meant when I said worry I didn’t mean saying EA is gonna come in and destroy SDS. Like you said it would push SDS to make a better product that’s what SDS needs a competitor.

Just watched couple YouTube videos and the game looks fun ! A note that SDS should take is that’s how a franchise mode should be it’s very deep you can do alot takes notes SDS !!!!!

I mean I wish it was a simulation game but it is what it is it still looks really cool and fun ! The graphics are actually pretty darn good lol I love mlb the show but they continue to disappoint with not improving the graphics no improvement to gameplay no improvement to franchise mode especially they’re starting to go down the road like 2K which I hate. I’m thinking of picking up Super Mega Baseball 4
