This is what happens when you put 99’s in from the jump. You catered to the few and now this game has been so boring since the end of season 1. How to do have a 99 chipper that’s definitely end game and then have a new 97 chipper it’s pointless. The grind is stupid why am I going to play a game to grind for 95-97’s?? I haven’t touched this game since the end of season 2 and I honestly don’t think I’ve missed anything. I try to come back on and play but it’s so stale and repetitive. This is my favorite sports game to play and it’s sad that it’s gotten so boring.

For everyone on here talking about how bad this game has been this year and no response from sds and literally now being slapped in the face with this glitch, are you willing to put your money where your mouth is??? I know this might fall on deaf ears but what about we all come together streamers included and stop playing this game for a certain amount of time until they fix what needs to be fixed. We have the power to make a change but it has to be a majority of us willing to sacrifice a week or so of this game and to show sds we aren’t messing around. I’m more than ok with staying of this game if I can get a majority of the community to follow. I understand this is a lot of our favorite franchise and we all love baseball, but this is just disgusting and they are doing nothing about it. We now know they can fix bugs within hours and yet all the stuff we’ve begged them to fix or even give us an explanation on, they’ve basically said screw you guys you mean nothing. I’m hoping this can reach the right person and we can start a chain and really make a difference. I’m a dad with a full time job and only get to play for a short amount of time and I feel I get booted because of server errors or I can’t do anything because of inflation. We need to come together and make a change!!!! #boycott26tillitsfixed

@TheGoaler_PSN

These kids don’t even know about the tecmo bo Jackson glitch that would literally start fights in the house

How about you and the other idiots at sds work on your dumba** game and actually resolve all these problems. You’re so worried about locking chats and making money and can care less about your community. So many issues and yet not one form of communication to us. And then you wonder why people are pissed and saying stuff about violating terms and services, it’s because you clowns have no back bone and no balls!!! What’s your answer to all the cheating? What’s your resolution for everyone violating your terms?? Don’t worry we’ll wait…..

I watched and 100% agree with his thoughts and views. As I’ve said before it’s one thing to be negative about a game and just trash them, but it’s another thing to have a company lie and gaslight its community and then have the audacity to ask for surveys and tell us how the game is while doing nothing to fix it. There’s so much wrong with this game this year and imo sds knew this game was broken beyond repair but they put it out anyways because they needed a profit. They used to listen to the community and creators used to be big influences and the game was for the most part always fair and balanced. This was by far the best online sports game to play but now it’s so vile and predatory towards money. For everyone that says well then don’t play it, you’re the reason this game is so pathetic. You’re a sheep and you would jump off a cliff if your buddy went. People are so passionate about their thoughts because most of us have families and jobs and for a couple hours a week we want to forget reality and just play our favorite pastime game. We don’t get to spend hours a day grinding for stuff we probably won’t get. We want to hop in the game do some missions and play but we keep getting booted out or deal with cheaters or cards hid behind paywalls. It ruins the fun for the majority of this games base and it’s so sad that sds has no awareness of what’s going on or they do and they just don’t care. We aren’t asking them to split a atom or solve world hunger. All we want is to be heard and to just play a game that can both satisfy online and offline players. Surely it can’t be that hard to appease people. I get your not ever going to make everyone happy and people are always going to find something to complain about but this years game is well deserved of all its criticism. If it was playable and half way decent then yea maybe we would be over exaggerating but this years game is beyond pathetic.

Balls in your court SDS joeK do you have enough balls to come on here and give the community an explanation??? Or are you a simp like the rest of your company?? The people have been asking and begging for an explanation for MONTHS!!!

I’m all for dragging this game in the mud it’s deserved but even I think you sound entitled. Take a game mode out because you suck is the most Gen Z response ever. Get rid of diamond quest that mode is a joke. How do you justify spending over an hour on a mode to get a silver card playing on HOF!!! If I wanted to play dungeons and dragons I would have bought that!!! If I beat the mode I should get the reward not have a 70-80% chance of HOF or better and get nothing meaningful.

@Sarge1387_PSN

I hope whenever someone pauses againts me they message me and ask for it. I’m down to give up 100 runs to each other and pad stats. That’s literally the whole point of events and winning means absolutely nothing after you get the five wins usually needed per event. If I could play one game and get all stats and missions done besides the wins I would gladly trade the person I’m playing the same deal!!!

@Apolloz_99_MLBTS

I agree with you but also I think the real point everyone misses is they don’t hate the game they hate what’s happened to it. They still play because it’s baseball and it’s still somewhat fun. I think coming in a forum and expressing their feelings on a game is exactly what a forum is for. You can almost say you commenting on their post is just as dumb as the post itself. If you don’t agree with it then just move on. But people choose to do it right? I do agree that some people just want to watch the world burn and it’s annoying but sometimes the constructive negative comments do carry some weight.

This year was supposed to be a great game with new things and better gameplay. Although I still enjoy playing this game and it definitely keeps me busy when I play, there is just so many useless and boring cards and missions to do. We are just now in July and we have 99 cards for pretty much all the good players already. What the hell are you going to put out for season 3 and beyond? I think the concept is pretty cool but the execution is way off. This being the only baseball game we have, it’s pretty fair and we all have a chance to get good cards money spent or not but it’s getting stale now and it’s only season 2. And why are we grinding missions for 97’s when they won’t even be on our bench ever. I hope I’m wrong and they are going to pull out some absolute DAWGS!! For the next seasons, but I don’t know what else you can do at this point.

At this point I think sds knows they messed up and now they are just putting lipstick on a pig and trying to make do with what they got. They’ve already given us all these 99’s what the hell is left. Ok cool we are going to get a bunch of 97 homerun and all star cards and then a handful of 99 ones but they will be forgotten about in the sea of washed up 99’s. There is nothing left to grind for it’s the same process just new card art, I think they really screwed the pooch on this year. Great concept just very poor execution in my opinion!!!

Why in the world does it take so long for a base runner to turn around if you accidentally send them and try to send them back. I understand they can’t stop and turn around right away but good lord it takes 2+ seconds for them to turn around it’s so unrealistic and looks so stupid. And can someone tell me why I can’t throw a runner out at first base if there’s a hard line drive to the outfield. I know it’s rare and doesn’t happen often but the AI in this game is beyond dumb.

@x-814-x-MAFIA-x_PSN

100% agree…. but this mode should never ever be in a sports game like this ever. It takes over an hour to play this game mode if you complete everything and that’s time spent playing their stupid game. Why would I waste my time playing and not even be guaranteed the cards?? This isn’t a role playing dungeons and dragons game leave that sh** to that genre and focus on making online play enjoyable. This has to be the dumbest mode next to retro mode they’ve ever added. This mode has probably turned away so many players because it’s a gamble and chance based. I get it you take that risk by playing it but screw that it’s not worth being upset when you get 80% and end up getting bronze cards and a useless standard pack. It’s gross on how stupid they really think their player base is.

@Jacob151167_XBL

Bro we are way past being cordial and caring about feelings. That was months ago when they all had time to explain problems. Do you know why we are irate? When the community falls on deaf ears and absolutely no one comes on here or any platform and give an explanation or resolution then you lose all credibility and all rights for people to be kind. Do your job when you’re supposed to and it would never get to this point.

JDHalfrack_PSN

Well screw you and your luck lol jk jk but yea I’ve never pulled those cards and just want one time to be able to finish a live series With out collecting millions of stubs. A couple 100 thousand isn’t bad but once we get into the millions it’s crazy. I got kids and a full time job I don’t have time for all that lol

That’s sds for you if it doesn’t affect their bottom line they don’t care about anything. This company got too big and they started caring more about money and less about their community. Greed is the downfall of man and sds is prime example. They used to care so much about us and live streams addressing problems and just everything you want to see. Now we have stuff like this and you can report it all you want nothing will ever get done. It’s embarrassing if you ask me, but honestly this company has no moral or ethical values anymore. It’s all about money and after that you can get fuc***. [censored] poor management dog gameplay graphics and content teams. The only good thing at this place is the team that works on card art. This company wouldn’t know moral or ethical values if it slapped them in the face!!!!

@Rhyno1986_XBL

Are you stupid??? I’ve played on legend with 80% chance to get reward and get nothing. If I were to play on rookie I had like 50% chance. So I’m forced to play on higher difficulty and even when I win I don’t get reward. That’s a horrible model to base a game where you can complete all missions all goals and then end up getting nothing. You spend pretty much a hour depending on which quest. That has to be the worst model to sell to people. I understand risk reward but why the hell is that even in a game like this?? That takes all the fun out of playing. Some people have jobs and families and don’t get to sit on a game for 8+ hours. And the facts are all these people in this forum that have played on higher difficulty and got nothing. What are you even talking about

I feel like they’ve ruined conquest this year so far. That whole mode should be for grinding and getting stats completed. There should be no reason the cpu should be able to run the map how it does. I don’t understand how they always have unlimited fans and never seem to run out of stuff. Last year I could complete a map quick this year it’s been tough and it shouldn’t be

The online play in this game is so broken it’s unbelievable. For sds to say they fixed the bad timing and miss placed pci [censored] is an absolute joke!!! When I throw pitches well out of the zone and they still get solid hits is pathetic. What’s the point of mixing pitches and hitting corners if sds is just going to let them hit it anyways. There is zero skill gap in this game and it sucks because this is the only baseball game on the market to play. I enjoy the offline play but it’s just dumb that they can’t do what they say they are going to do for online play.
