@Imbeater Do you have two controllers on at the same time? That sounds like an issue I had once a few years ago where I used my wireless controller to turn the console on, and then tried using my wired Power A for The Show. The game considered the wired controller as Player 2, which allowed me to navigate menus and such but I couldn't do anything in game. If that's the case, just turn off the wireless controller and restart.

@MarioMendoza935 Hey, it's been a while. Everything's good, but I've had a lot less free time. This has also been my least favorite version of the Show since I started Diamond Dynasty, so I've been playing less and haven't felt the need to log into the forum to talk about it much. Usually I just scan the front page to see if anything interesting is going on, and then leave. I'll send you a friend invite on Xbox since I've been playing over there this year.

@pikedude86 It's a shame the thread on Reddit with screenshots of you threatening and harassing people back in May got nuked.

I'm guessing there will be a flash sale soon. I actually sold my Captain Rollins a day or two ago for about 498k. I don't really need the stubs, but I also never use him and figure that price will bottom out again at some point.

This reddit post has the updated spreadsheet I use.

Please tell me that's your version of grade-A satire and not something that a representative of SDS actually sent you in an email! I hate to disappoint, but it was actually this guy.

@ochon said in 스위치 서버: 대체 왜 아직도 활성화가 안 되는 건지? 고치려는 노력은 하고 있는지 의문 Nintendo Switch에서 플레이하는 것에 대해 이야기하고 있다고 가정합니다. Twitter의 SDS 게시물을 바탕으로 그들은 문제를 인식하고 있습니다. 지금쯤 수정했어야 한다는 점에는 동의합니다. 그런데 무엇이 이렇게 오래 걸리는지 모르겠습니다. Google 번역으로 작성되었으므로 이 내용이 이해되길 바랍니다.

This was their last post for context. Also posted in Korean and translated via Google Translate.

"I think it makes no sense that a situation has arisen where online play cannot be played on a certain device, and that this cannot be fixed within two days from the time it first occurs.

I can only think that this situation is possible because THE SHOW is the only console baseball game.

From the consumer's point of view, there is no other choice anyway, so we have no choice but to understand that you should follow what is convenient for us.

I heard that CROSS PLAY&SAVE was possible, so I bought two console devices and purchased the game separately and enjoyed it as a stationary and portable device, but while it is down like this, I guess it is only half the game in the end.

I think this is really problematic.
I don't think it's a historical game.

Please make an effort to be able to play normally on any device as soon as possible.

If I feel tired while playing a game in front of a desk with a monitor, I want to lie down on the bed and continue playing the game I was playing in a comfortable position.

I hope that things will return to normal as soon as possible."

@DGvsTheWorld said in Zen pitching needs to go: I'm not talking about the little device players hook up there controller and dial in a bunch of codes to pitch and hit with precise movement. I'm talking about how everything that the pitcher throws a consistent "dot" with runners on. I call these "bailed out strikes", yes we all heard get better, do better, ahhh if u watched a real ball game not every at bat your hitting into a 1-2 or 0-2 count. Something needs to be fixed next year where the pitcher is nervous throwing strikes and misses there spots more often. I can't count how many my opponent is bailed out with "dotting". Either nerf pitchers confidence or the accuracy with runners on or in a tight situation. I'm not swinging idc what u do, make the [censored] pitcher nervous! It sounds like you want pitches to float into the middle of the strikezone, even when there is good input, when there are runners on base. If that is the case, I recommend checking out MLB The Show 20. Otherwise, the pitcher already either has a boost or nerf based on the pitching clutch attribute.

@Blind_Bleeder said in Juan Soto LS "Buy" Orders:

So if put in an order for 3000 (the QS price), it won't go through? If it did, the seller would end up getting 2,700 stubs from the sale, 300 below the QS price.

Just quick sell him, easy 3k and no need to wait

Right! That's my point. These players should go in and cancel their orders and QS the cards. They'll get more stubs, and they'll be done with it.

I think you're forgetting about the fact that a large percentage of people playing this game can't do math, and don't realize 90% of 3028 stubs is less than 3000.

Should they cancel their orders? Sure. It's not going to happen though. In fact, while I was typing this comment, someone posted another one at 3027.

@DaddyFatSak_00 said in Tim Lincecum card: Are we ever gonna get a Tim Lincecum card??? Guy could definitely get a 99 No. They haven't had his rights since he retired. It's October, so there isn't a chance that they would add him this late.

@RAlanSlavens said in Season 4 Bundle: Is this worth the 65K? Unless I'm missing something, you get a guaranteed high diamond live series, great chase diamond, and guaranteed diamond duo. Quickselling those 3 would be 30k which is almost half the cost of the bundle, and you could recover more depending on the actual cards you pull. So 35k for the Chase pack? I have over a million stubs to burn and haven't been playing much lately, so I bought one. I expect to lose stubs so I won't be dissapointed. I'll open the packs later.

Pretty sure anything associated with DD has to have an online subscription. Why else would there be people complaining that they can't get into DD when Live had issues the other day. I will only speak then about Xbox that GamePass is not needed to play online if you purchased the game. But you do need XBox Live. As of September 14th, Xbox Live has been discontinued. I believe the closest equivalent is Xbox Game Pass Core.

@sydsouza said in Career packs: Can I assume that eventually these career packs actually have the career cards in them or are they just there to collect live series golds? No seriously, I wish I was joking..... I got 5 diamonds out of 19 packs. Even if you don't get any, they'll be cheap soon enough.

@Blind_Bleeder said in Error message on Xbox:

I hopped on about 1:30 am pacific for about an hour and it was fine. (XBoxX).

Working fine for me now as well. (Xbox Series X)

Just says “something went wrong” no ther errors. Trying to troubleshoot. Thanks Maybe it's not just me. Let me know if you see error message 0x87dd0033 at some point. Maybe they're having intermittent server issues. Maybe it's regional? I'm in Northern California. New Jersey here.

@Blind_Bleeder said in Error message on Xbox:

No. I am on an XBox X also and just finished a Conquest game when I saw your message. I exited the game and went back into DD without any problem. I am on the west coast if that matters.

Hmmm, so just me I guess. I'll have to trouble shoot a bit more later. I could try to delete and reinstall the game, but there may be a quicker / easier fix.

Anyone else having trouble getting into Diamond Dynasty on Xbox right now? I keep getting error message 0x87dd0033. I tried restarting both the game and console. Other online games seem to be working fine.
