I know, I know, I’m sorry! It’s been a long wait for me. Franchise is so much better without the glitched out “created characters” I’ll try not to post anymore. There was way too many top prospects missing IMO. Thought they would’ve been added before the game released. Still missing a bunch but I’ll try to make yall happy and not post about face scans. lol.

It’s starting to look like a MLB franchise again! Still missing some top prospects but I can’t even complain…. Honestly impressed. They even added reed Garrett. I thought he was gonna be the next Josh h. Smith. (Josh h. Smith still holds that title) . If you guys add Chase burns, cam smith, Kristian Campbell, Jordan beck, chase dollander, hunter Goodman, BUBBA CHANDLER, Noah Schulz, Brandon sproat, Colt Keith , Hayden birdsong, Jose Soriano, Ben Joyce, Justin slaten, Ben caspirius, Cole young, Jacob misiorowski, drake Baldwin and maybe even Ethan Holliday when he’s gets drafted or max Clark, walker Jenkins, Aidan miller, Charlie condon, and Connor griffin that would be sick. I’ll never post about face scans again. ..I almost feel bad for hating on the devs so much after this update. Sorry SDS! Thank you and keep up the good work on the scans and adding the future of the MLB!

@SavageSteve_MLBTS

Don’t waste your breath… they all have the same excuses and I continue to prove them wrong time and time again. I’ve accepted that they’ve turned baseball into a battle royale card game. I haven’t even played the game at all lol. I should’ve realized after last year it was gonna be bad but I gave them the benefit of the doubt. Man was I wrong, This year is atrocious. Oh well, lesson learned. SDS ruined the only MLB video game.

They haven’t even added Josh smith lol. It’s been like 2 months. (After years of never adding him)

CAN WE PLEASE GET SOME FACE SCANS OF THESE TOP PROSPECTS THAT HAVE DEBUTED!!!!

Chase Burns debuted today!!! He had a historic start and Struck out his first 5 batters. Top 3 pitcher prospect with Electric stuff. He should’ve been added before this game was released along with Jac Cagliogne, Nick Kurtz, Christian Moore, cam smith, Cole young, Kristian Campbell, Kyle teel, drake Baldwin, chase dollander, Jacob misiorowski, chase meidroth, AJ smith Shawver , etc…. Have all debuted! These aren’t just random prospects filling in for IL spots . They are the future of the MLB! TOP PROSPECTS!!!! Please add some players!!!!

Bubba chandler is gonna debut soon so will Noah Schulz and brandon sproat can we please get some of these guys. Ethan Holliday, max clark, Charlie condon, walker Jenkins, and Aidan miller would be great too!

Btw We’re still waiting for Jose Soriano, Colt Keith, Hayden birdsong, Jordan beck, hunter Goodman, etc….. and what is going on with Josh H. Smith???

Also, Can someone please let us know what the process is with this? Are we waiting til after the all star break? Why was every top prospect in the game a few years ago and now we’re still waiting for players who have been playing consistently for a year or a few years? Even last year wasn’t great but you added a lot of players. This year you barely added anyone when the game was released and it’s still almost the same rosters. So many top prospects still haven’t been scanned even after debuting. Just wanna know what to expect and why it’s so hard in 2025 but 2022 the game was loaded?

@RedstickRebel_PSN

the player cards are basically irrelevant tho. He still doesn’t have a face scan in DD. The list of missing top prospects who have already debuted or are gonna debut this year is pathetic. The list of players still not added that have been consistently playing for a couple years is laughable…. Colt Keith, Jose Soriano, Josh smith, Jordan beck, hunter Goodman, etc …. SDS is a joke and they’ve completely neglected everything about this game other than DD. Same game every year . Same graphics, same commentary (u think we wanna listen to the same 10 phrases over and over year after year?) same “minor league stadiums” same game.

@NYC_SourDiesel_PSN

it’s getting worse every year. They barely added anyone before this game was released . Colt Keith, Jose Soriano, Jordan beck , hunter goodman, Ben Joyce, etc. they didn’t even add Tyler Fitzgerald til this year. Those are guys who have been playing for a couple years consistently and that’s just a few of many.

The thing that gets me is they didn’t add any of the top prospects that were gonna debut this year before they released the game and tbh they still haven’t really added any of them. Nick Kurtz , jac cagliogne, chase dollander, Cole young, Christian Moore, cam smith, bubba chandler, chase burns, Kyle teel, Cole young, Jacob misiorowski ,etc. literally some of the top prospects in the game. The future faces of the show. Not to mention Kristian Campbell, drake balwdin and others who have been playing since the beginning of the season. They made sure we got Brennan milone, Daniel Susac, Caleb lomavita, and Cade bunnell tho????? It would be like madden releasing 26 without Travis hunter, cam ward, etc being in the game. Somehow college football has college kids face scans but MLB can’t get the top prospects???? It’s so bad it’s a joke.

I thought last year was bad and was hoping for a bounce back but that’s def not the case. It’s a lot worse than last year was. They recycle the same game over and over every year and it’s the same graphics, same commentary, same gear, same minor league stadiums….. did they even add where the rays are playing yet? Probably still the dome lol. The least they could do is update the rosters better and add some of the top prospects. If the graphics are gonna be the same every year the least they could do is add new player models and update face scans…. Instead of cagliogne or Kurtz getting added we got Jesus tinoco, Cole Winn, and Colin snider updates….. laughable at best. They still haven’t even added Josh smith and they’ve been trying to do that since their first “update”

They have completely abandoned everything other than DD. Apparently they’re the only people that play this game. No one wants a realistic baseball experience anymore. They don’t even attempt to update teams like the Rockies, white Sox, tigers, angels, marlins….. I’m honestly disappointed I bought this game. It’s basically 24 again. Oh well at least i have RUST to fall back on until GTA6 comes out.

PS SF is in the same state as you ! No hayden birdsong? Ryan walker?! Yall are a joke!!!!

You guys are a joke…. No excuse for this! How is Tyler Fitzgerald not in the game? Colt Keith too! You gave us the bare minimum this year, by far worse than the last few years. No new batting gear or cleats? Pathetic!

I AM SO GLAD I DIDNT BUY THIS GAME!!!!!!! I stopped over at my buddies house to check it out and I would’ve been soooo disappointed!!!! What did sds even do this year graphics wise? It’s pathetic! Plus the face scans….. so many missing that should’ve been added last year !!! Sds is lazy and they made baseball into a pokemon like card game. Not Everyone plays DD with that stupid hitting view!!!! A lot of franchise players you just failed miserably !!! Jose Soriano? Bowden francis! Tyler holton? Beau brieske? Somehow colt keith still isn’t in the game!!! It’s laughable at best! Wenceel Perez? What do u have against the tigers? Jace Jung? Keider montero? I could go on forever bc when I was looking thru the teams I was just laughing my [censored] off bc everyone is still missing! Honestly it’s pretty much the same as last year with a few new face scans….. literally random people who never played but we can’t get guys that have been in the league for a couple years!? You’re a joke of a company who profits millions every year and puts out a recyclled game every year! We didn’t even get face scans this year!!!!

@LuvMyXBOX_XBL I didn’t think about that. I never play online or DD. Probably was a mess for you guys. I always buy the game and 100$ isn’t a lot. it’s just the point . Would love to spend 100$ on a great baseball game I haven’t been playing for 8 years on the last gen consoles.

Can you please act like you know the MLB a little bit? MAKE THE ROYALS SECOND COLOR BABY BLUE!!!!!!!! No one wears that rusty gold! And please don’t use the “light blue” you have in the game bc that’s just terrible! Give us a wheel where we can make our own colors since yall don’t care… they did that in baseball games in early 2000s lol. thanks!!!! Also can we get an extra default uniform spot from road games? Sick of changing my white cleats to red ones during away games…. Minor things that could’ve been fixed years ago! Probably gonna be next years “special features”

lol this is def showing the greed and laziness from this company! I hope this proves how many people won’t be paying this recycled garbage this year. Half the people who played this game were probably on game pass and only played it bc it was on game pass. Don’t spend 100$ on a recycled game from 2018!!!! Next gen consoles have been around for awhile now and they want us to settle for 2015 tech when we’re in 2025!!!!!! They give you the absolute minimum every year… a roster update and a few lame animations like dolphins dives!!!! Oh but wait !!! This year their main “upgrade” or new feature is gonna be that not every player is a gold glover!!!! The fielding stats actually matter now!!!! And we also have a “more realistic” free agency in franchise mode !!!! Franchise mode that we can’t even play online anymore bc they removed it!!!!! These aren’t anything major!! These are minor problems they should’ve addressed years ago!! The best they can do on the graphics is the “belts and pants look more realistic “ and the “stadium lighting is more realistic “ it’s a joke. Same game, same graphics, same everything !!!! I hope you lose half ur customers this year!!! You won’t tho bc u have the rights to mlb and u know you can give the absolute minimum every year!!!! Shame on SDS for ruining baseball for everyone like the dodgers did for non dodgers fans this year!!!

@PriorFir4383355_XBL lol, so many snow flakes. You’re offended bc I don’t think SDS is doing what they could be? Stop being such a baby. It’s an opinion about a video game and the company who makes it!!!!

@ChuckCLC_PSN nope! Doesn’t take a genius to figure out we’re still playing the same game from 2018 on next gen consoles!!!! It’s 2025 and the technology is insane. Stop settling for a massive company who bought out the rights to mlb so they could recycle the same game to us over and over with a new roster update and a few lame animations every year ! You wanna spend 100$ on a game you’ve been playing for 8 years over and over? I don’t! Millions of people feel the same as I do it’s just on Reddit. I’ll put it on here so maybe they read it. I’m sure they know they suck they just have a bunch of moron fans who they’ll get money out of. Stop settling for this minimum effort bs from SDS! Their major updates this year in short are all fielders aren’t gold glovers anymore and a more realistic free agency in franchise mode. Got rid of seasons and a couple graphic tweaks like “belt and pants look more realistic” and “stadium lighting is better” lol those should’ve been addressed years ago imo. Once again it’s 2025 bro, stop settling for 2015 tech

@Easy_Duhz_It__PSN you must work for SDS. Next gen has been here but we’re still settling for the same game? Cmon man! Stop acting like you’re happy with their new “upgrades” this year. They’re just minor things they should’ve addressed years ago. “More realistic free agency and fielding attributes actually matter”????? lol it’s a joke. Oh and the belts and pants look more realistic

@YOSHI24_XBL it’s been 8 years of the same game…… next gen systems have been out for awhile now but yet still the same game again, same program, same graphics, same animations, same gear, same stadiums, same exact everything! They finally made fielding attributes matter!!!! (should’ve done that years ago so everyon isn’t dolphin floppin gold glovers) they made feee agency “more realistic” these things aren’t anything major. Honestly just small things they should’ve fixed years ago. Stop settling for billion dollar companies with technology in 2025 to give u garbage every year.

Why do batters have attributes vs left and right but pitchers have the same attributes against lefties and righties ? Too much work to make something realistic ????

Man you’re slow. If they don’t pay attention to current game problems why would they care about next years suggestions? Tighten up bro. U can do it

Thanks for the same recycled trash game that we’ve had on ps4 and Xbox one for 7-8 years! Thanks for listening to all the people who pay to play this garbage. We get it! You have the rights and can do the bare minimum! Way to go! You ruined baseball on video games for everyone! Do better! You useless greedy pieces of trash! Stop giving us the same game, graphics, everything… every year! “ we added 2 animations and took franchise online mode out of the game, oh and me made the belts and pants look more realistic” gee thanks! A lot of effort put into that! Yall are a joke and should let someone else take over all the little details. Not every slider is the same, not every fastball is straight, not everyone wears metal chains, etc…. We can’t even have a default home and away jersey ! It’s laughable. EA had that in their games in the early 2000’s! I wish someone made a ncaa baseball game and these clowns had competition. Save ur money don’t buy this game! It’s the same thing as last year except not every player is a gold glover, dolphin diving everywhere vacuuming up balls

@Easy_Duhz_It__PSN you ever hear of mlbtheshow support? Clearly not! I’ve been doing it that way for years proving to them with pictures what bugs are happening and what could be better…. They have responded to a couple things but as far as face scans and the little details. They don’t wanna focus on that. They’d rather just focus on 3 new animations every year… decided to pull online franchise too lol. Dodgers ruined the mlb and sds ruined baseball video games. Hopefully GTA6 is amazing and I don’t have to play these recycled games anymore
