Haha, i've hit a snag, it wants me to play a head to head game but it can't find anyone to face me lol, typical MLB the show

O it's free, ok downloading now and ready to eat my words if it's fun

Yeeeeesss, 3rd attempt. Mike Trout spotlight is incredible.

Adele hit into a triple play leaving me with 12 outs needing 3 runs, solo home run from Santander, got Yellich on with a bunt (i need that Yellich) and Ramirez doubled him home. Trout reached on a hit to left and stole 2md and 3rd and Ramirez hit a sac to win it for me.

Screw this, everything is hit at a fielder, forget winning i can't even wina stage....

MLB the show 21, the grind of Eric Thames back when programs actually gave great rewards. Man that card was crazy. Not to mention the first year of Mantle and the 99 overall Josh Donaldson

Cmon, Steve

Can the other 6 help at all?

Seems to me according to some forum poster that it’s you and 6 who do things.

Stephen it’s on you sir

Please explain to us your day to day job. You and the 6 others.

Describe your day of work, Stephen

Not sure about the others but I am interested in what goes into a full day of work at SDS

I seriously am wondering if they’re are going out of business or some [censored]… this game is inexcusably bad

But wait... theres always the mobile game.

Talk about desperate for $$$, yup I can get on board with the going out of business theory

How can flipping work better when it takes ten minutes to put in a dozen orders?!

Well if your using your PS5/XBOX etc it doesn't take 10 minutes, thats what I meant. All the bots are on the App anyway.

I've said it a lot this year and I will say it again, I hope they shut the app down completely, flipping seems to work better when it's lagging anyways.

The only thing i've been using the app for recently is to check progress in TA

Edit

Just to be clear I mean flipping on console

After all the justified criticism of the lack of XP in Innings two, how are we all doing this innings?

They reduced the amount needed for the boss, although the lack of XP (due to a lack of consistent content) is still a real issue.

So, where are we all at?

Just had my 2nd go of the wheel, got a chase pack.... Kyle Tucker

Is the server down right now?

@CarlosLBJ23_PSN said:

You can only see people complaining about the game but when we are going to see SDS reply? I feel like we gotta do something else not only posting here, there is nothing positive to say about the game right now. This got me back on the show 2011. I really want to see a change but I don't think this forum is enough pressure for them.

It's not just on this forum. Problem is SDS is tone deaf, they seem to only care about their new mobile game.

@Onix_Savage22_PSN

Yeah it seems a lot of you guys are turning to other options already. That speaks volumes.

It's not a good sign when a baseball game has 80% of the fan base checked out by mid May but hey SDS still have the bots.

@Onix_Savage22_PSN said:

@Rubbaneck34_XBL one more pop up of this stupid mobile game I’m gonna lose my mind. FIX UR ACTUAL GAME!!!!

I made a post about this very thing, frustrating isn't it.... only 8 more days to go.

@MarinerMatt01_PSN said:

This has probably been the earliest in the year I’ve given up on a Show title, but here I am. All switch hit lineups. A massive cheating problem. Broken cards. Check swings. An incredibly frustrating and unenjoyable online experience. Fixing it would involve a massive change in coding that isn’t feasible to implement this year. I’d hold out hope for next year’s game but 26 has become an even more extreme version of 25, so I’m not holding my breath that 27 will be any different. Online rated outside of DD is still fun, but a ghost town. Offline is ok, but that’s not where the money is so it has become stale and boring. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll still play it, I love baseball and I have nothing better to do, but my passion for the game has been replaced by frustration over how this once great game has really fallen.

Also very inconsistent programs, a Tops Now program here, a monthly program there, wait 2 weeks... huge drop... and then nothing for 2 more weeks except a conquest map..... Lucky us.

@go4stros25_PSN said:

Im running out of motivation ad well. Did I see that we wont get any new content until the 28th!? This is a 3 day weekend, surely there will be somthing. For almost 2 weeks we get 1 Topps now program that take 2 hours.

Also I checked my inning progress, and again from 300k xp to around 400k xp you earn like 3 packs. Not special store packs, just regular packs. Lame.

I found myself bored and grinding the number one fan TA. Just aimlessly playing the game with players I dont care to play with until I accumulate an ungodly amount of pxp and stats just for the hopes if getting a good pull from a pack.

Thats what this game is. Grind going grind then open up a ton of packs and get peanuts. Maybe if online play wasnt terrible it wouldnt be so bad, but it is.

You forgot about the conquest map......

It's one of the most important long weekends in the US this weekend

Here's a idea thats put out a conquest map.

Yah! The fans will love that. Should we include a program?

Nah the conquest map will be enough.

Genius

Signed SDS

Also don't expect much from the 85 overall pack, I got a Kurtz

Btw thats exactly what I have been doing, load up a team and play mini season trying to get to the 5/10/15 packs + ballin is a gold and see if I can pull Judge or Ohtani but it's getting old really fast this year.

@Einarr44_PSN said:

For everyone who says this game is "cut and paste", this year's menu lag proves otherwise.
At least previous versions would have this issue fixed by now.

Quite right, this years version is worse. I got the game late this year (near the end of April) because I was already on the fence and like others have said i'm already pretty board with it. I have all of the AL TA at 70/80 % but i'm finding little motivation to even start the NL

Their attention is on their Mobile game release, not this one.

I am so annoyed every time I open the app on my phone and the splash screen screams at me "PREORDER THE MOBILE APP!!!"

I will not. I just want to log in, see how poorly my investments are doing, cry a little, and then go on about my day.

Same here, hence my post of Mobile game

@sbchamps17_NSW said:

SDS needs to fix the servers, there should be no reason why I should be kicked out of mini seasons games every day and why my game is completely closing the app for no reason at all. But like the title says I normally don't complain about the game but this server [censored] is getting really old really fast and I'm sick of it

SDS is more interested in releasing it's new game then fixing the one thats already out.... it's a slap in the face imo.

@MarioMendoza935_XBL said:

I know, I know. I think it's in July. @savefarris_psn will know.

I'm getting depressed. I still need so many cards for the Miguel final card. The St. Patrick's Day Trout has gone parabolic (almost 135k on the "buy now"). It will cost me over 125k stubs to complete the Egg Hunt series. I finally finished Jackie and the WBC series, but that set me back somewhat.

I guess I just sit on my hands and wait for a Flash Sale. NO, NOT A STUB SALE. Ugh.

Where are you guys at via collections?

17 collections done, getting Gausman yesterday helped, i've started working on the Mural collection, 23 cards collected for that one. I'm way off on WBC, as for the others.

Egg Hunt - 9/15
Awards - 15/18
Standout - 2/3
All Star - 32/39
Mexico city series - 2/4
Jackie Robinson - 39/42
