5th gen:

7th gen:

The “leaps and bounds” portion of development is a thing of the past at this point. Short of a technological breakthrough, future enhancements are going to be minor.

You're talking about straight up graphics. Yeah, we won't see many advancements in that department.

I'm talking about the actual gameplay. How the players move. How exciting it is to see your "Diamond" player make an amazing play compared to your "bronze" player. Besides the player name and number, it would kinda all look the same. They got the different batting stances in there at least I guess

I'm talking about everything. From the graphics, to the same reused animations, clunky transitions from practice awing to batting stances. As I said same fit of their Jerseys from the PS3 era. Heck, if you go through all if the Batting Stances and Picthing animations you'll notice several are the same, but counted as separate. This just isn't even a debatable.

Some comments are being ridiculous. Yes MLB The Show 21 looks good. And better than last gen version, HOWEVER! MLB The Show 22 could look much better. This is a sports game for christs sakes. This isn't an Open World RPG, with severe particle effects, dynamic weather, and a several enemies attacking you at the same time in a variety of ways.

Stop sticking up for laziness. SDS is taking our money for a product we want and care about. Ask for better.

I'm right there with you. There are just way too many assets being re-used from YEARS ago. Not sure if I said it in this thread or a different one, but the "Too early" swing and miss animation is exactly the same one they used in The Show '07 on PSP. Like, Really? In a video game that every session is basically exactly the same thing. It's baseball. We pitch, hit, defense. There isn't any crazy graphical/technical gameplay going on.

Complete overhaul is very much needed. BUT it's the only real MLB video game in the market so we're kinda screwed..

Exactly. And the thing that is particularly frustrating is PlayStation's alleged "demand" (for lack of better term) for good, quality titles known for their attention to detail, and polish. And I am not saying the whole of MLB The Show is poor. It isn't, it is for the most part fairly good. But it could be MUCH BETTER. Especially with it's animations, and it's graphics.

Oh [censored] we are doing necromancy again? Alright.

It's ridiculous to think that he wins these awards, and 2 years later he is going to be in the minors if he doesn't retire making nearly 40 million dollars a year.

I
My team signed Aaron Nola in the off-season to an astronomical deal. 10 years almost 400 million dollar deal. But I seen he was about to turn 30. And the deal would only hurt my team due to we would only get 6 years max of productivity out of him. So, I reloaded my prior save. Yeah, go sink some other franchise.

Corey Kluber won the Cy Young in 2017 going 18-4. He has 26 wins total since and 20 of those came in 2018.

As I said in my posts there are instances. But Klubers issues stem from injuries, not ability as we are seeing with him in NY.

This is every single player, falling off a cliff at 36, and are out of the league in 2 years.

Same two full seasons of 65-70 power and low difficulty and I’ve a hit a grand total of 0 home runs. Given up trying now I just hit for contact cos at least then I’ll get on base

@levity7_psn said in I just love being a DH &:

This happened to me deleted the dude and made a new one using the option to go national league only.

Aw, I'd hate to do that. But can completely understand the move. This is my 2nd character and I didn't have this issue on my 1st guy in the AL.

That said, just started my 2nd season. They coach came up to me and asks what I'd like to focus on in Spring Training. Would have liked to focus on Fielding! But nope, checked the Batting Lineup and I am the DH. And the team signed some scrub guy who's 2nd position is 3rd base, to play my primary position. Looked at his attributes and they are only slightly better than mine. If I only was able to take advantage of all those Double XP training to better my fielding!

75 percent of the time I am not getting online progress, wish the game banked your xp until the servers worked.
