I'd like a few things- I'd love to be able to play in an entirely empty stadium...let us set the attendance, 0, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%
Empty bench and bleacher style seats for SC, movable bullpens and custom foul territory
Ability to sell dupes of locked in "no sell" cards
Custom music options- I understand that ones a tough get
Request a trade in RTTS at any time by contacting your agent...not just the two or three times your agent reaches out
Ok, this is a solid step in the right direction. Two follow up questions:
1- Does this mean that the Innings programs are coming back?
2- Are there any improvements to stadium creator being worked on for 25?
@Dolenz_PSN said in So with the announcement today:
My guess is that they saw some major falloff with player engagement throughout the year, enough to worry them and get them to abandon sets and seasons. That probably had more to do with it than the surveys.
I would not get my hopes up for Stadium Creator. You might see some small changes but don't expect an overhaul. Stadium Creator itself does not sell many copies of the game nor do they have any way to monetize it (yet)
Honestly, as long as the changes mean we can tinker with foul territory, move the bullpens ourselves, and limit the amount of dead zone(when we have funky fence deigns)...it'll be a W
@Easy_Duhz_It__PSN said in So with the announcement today:
Wtf does one have to do with the other?
That maybe they're finally starting to listen to the player base...and there might be hope that some of the suggestions made here for the last three years have been listened to as well?
In a move that was so highly requested yet entirely unexpected from SDS...they listened and got rid of sets and seasons...so does this mean that that maybe...just maybe they might be open to the updating and upgrading of the Stadium Creator?
We...won...we WON!!!
I helped reveal #TheShowFinest24 in @mlbtheshow https://mlbthe.show/finest24
Did not get a code nor email..but have received my SR pack
Never got an email with a code.
@PriorFir4383355_XBL said in Auto-align, stand-slants, bullpen in OF, batters eye fluidity idea:
Think of it like this, SDS revises the SC code so that the backstop, baseline, and outfield walls act like guillotines, slicing off any section of any prop that intrudes. This includes the dugout, which currently allows props to intrude.
Except, unlike the current code, this code is written so that the cuts are precise. If the wall forms an acute angle, then the slices match that acute angle.
It is so straightforward it's silly, and yet would be profound. Want dugout level seating? You have it now! Just take any existing field level stand prop and move it forward until just the last rear most seat rows are visible. Anything that intruded into the dugouts and past the walls is cut off. Then, place any other field level prop on top where the existing concourse divide is located and voila -- dugout level seating!
Turn all batter's eye props into normal props and suddenly you can populate them with standing fans, combine with other props, and seam up the seats on either side as desired. Or, put other types of props on either side or behind, or even in front between the batter's eye prop and the outfield wall.
My only concern about custom stadiums in versus CPU DD games is that you know some of those DD players will moan and groan how so-and-so is stacking up points in versus CPU games using strange stadium designs.
Sorry for quoting the whole thing there fellas, doing so on the mobile app while waiting at the Dr’s office and it just doesn’t translate well
Turning the batters eyes into regular props would be a huge get as well, I’ve always felt they’re missing people and fans. And they’ve definitely been missing the connectivity to the other props around them, and only a small handful of the eyes are able to create a not-as-noticeable seam.
It’s ridiculously simple but for whatever reason they won’t do it. And as far as the DD players complaining about people playing vs the CPU…who cares? It’s not like it affects them. We were able to grind programs for years vs the cpu prior to this year. I think the “Ranked Only” guys will complain no matter what.
I love your description of how to make the club level seating. Right now, I currently use the smaller blue bleachers with the concrete stairs to make that sort of thing
@Red_Ted_is_back_PSN said in Auto-align, stand-slants, bullpen in OF, batters eye fluidity idea:
@PriorFir4383355_XBL not sure if the ‘cut it off’ idea is possible as the assets are likely 3D models that can’t simply be sliced or trimmed.
It can IF they apply the same trim code to the wall as they apply to the ground. If you’re looking at what we mean, take the stands, and sink them down, the ground trims the seats to the closest row cleanly. @PriorFir4383355_XBL and I have been chatting about that sort of thing for most of the year
It will take some effort but it’ll be worth it
@PriorFir4383355_XBL said in Auto-align, stand-slants, bullpen in OF, batters eye fluidity idea:
Dozens of us have been asking for this type of option for years. Given the many sincere inputs provided, the optimal method of improved creativity simply involves these three basic changes to the game code:
Allow the same code as used to isolate and move outfield wall hinge points, to apply to the baselline wall segments outbound the dugouts. Only difference is no intrusion into fair territory.
Code the stands so that any portion of the stand that would intrude into the field of play is scissored off, in the exact same way that the stands current scissor off any section that is buried into the ground. In effect, the baseline, backstop, and outfield walls become a guillotine that slices off any portion of any prop that would intrude past it.
Code the stands so that any portion of a stand that overlays onto a portion of a previously laid stand prop is also scissored off.
In making just these three basic changes to prop code for the stands, it would unlock thousands of different design options that would allow designers to faithfully replicate modern baseball stadiums.
Now, to take it one additional step, change the code for the batters eye props so that they behave exactly like ordinary props, including the ability to delete and omit any batters eye. This opens up the world to enjoy batters eyes that appear integrated into the overall design of the stadium, including the ability to better mesh it with surrounding stands, add standing fans onto it, and tightly adhere to the outfield walls.
Now, one may ask, why are not these things already in the Stadium Creator code? The answer is to appease those who play the online games who constantly complained about how created stadiums would contain "cheating elements" that would provide the "home" team competitive advantages. Whether true or not, these complaints led SDS to implement a series of code adjustments that would try to prevent this "cheating."
My solution therefore is to prohibit the use of created stadiums in online competition games. In this way, the stadium creators themselves can do pretty much what they wish to achieve their design objectives and folks can play or not play the stadium as desired.
@Victor_SDS_PSN @Collin_SDS_PSN
This guy just posted a Cliff's Notes version of what I and countless other creators have been looking for out of this mode. Three simple things, along with the bullpens being placeable, are what we need.
We need more creative freedom, not less. Couple things, for example I always thought would be cool would be old school bench style seats (think OF seats in old Texas Stadium, Milwaukee County, etc) and the ability to tarp off seats as well.

My only caveat to this, would be to allow custom stadiums in games vs CPU, but prohibit their use in ranked
@jaychvz_XBL said in Nike & Jordan Gear:
I would say keep posting and bring it up in the surveys when they come out.
Under normal circumstances I'd agree about the surveys...however they very likely completely discard the vast majority of the ones that don't align with what they envision for the game. Otherwise things like Stadium Creator would have been upgraded two years ago
At least you guys got your wheel spin…I never saw my standard 5 pack or any animation. Got screwed
Didn’t get my wheel spin either.
Gonna be either Skenes or Freeman, me thinks. Although, Elly De La Cruz would be my "surprise" pick

@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●wall customization(sponsors, HR border, scoreboard/videoboards, distances, etc
Video boards in the wall would be sweet, and the HR border is something that never should have been omitted.
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●custom foul territory(even having presets would be nice
We've been clambering for this one for years...just give us even the fake minor league park foul ground dimensions. But I think the issue would be the stands not fitting right
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●domed stadium option
Long overdue, we have artificial turf, but no retractable roofs.
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●more grass designs(have designs real teams use also)
Personally, this is a minor one for me, but I'd love it if they didn't take up different memory alotments
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●matching infield and warning track dirt(no reason for the warning track to be mismatched)
Again, minor thing but it would be nice
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●ability to rotate props in ALL directions including tilting props
Not 100% certain how tilting them would actually work as far as practicality outside of the rock props, but I'm intrigued
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●LESS ANIMAL PROPS(they're useless)
yep, I'm struggling to understand why we got dinosaurs and kaiju instead of...useful stuff. The cows I don't mind for a small middle of nowhere type field in some hayseed town setting.
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●more concourse options. Give us more stone style concourses
Yes please, I'd add more stair styles as well
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●customizable backstops
Yes, this is a cool one. I hate how it's standard round...what if I want a squared up backstop with grey stonework like at Nationals Park?
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●Light and scoreboard props from ALL 30 PARKS
I agree, however I also see why they don't. They likely don't want people re-creating the current parks as that could lead to some sort of trademark or copyright issue.
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●numbers in ALL FONTS. The wood looks so bad
Yes, and I'll add different colours of neon to this suggestion
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●pillar props
Can you elaborate on this one?
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●wall templates of real stadiums
Yes, past and present for each team, including foul ground
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●more water props
If they make them a little more integratable and not so standout-ish
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●make the wall the hard prop. I should be able to put props right on the wall
This is something I've been pushing for...they already use that coding on the ground, so why not just use the same coding for the wall. This would make the wall actually auto trim the prop.
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●batters eye should be connected to the wall like they are in real life
Absolutely, I hate the 10-20ft of deadspace between the wall and the eye itself, and then there's also the issue of not being able to attach anything to it either
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●smaller field level stands. Most modern parks don't have field level seating that big
Yeah I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought they were oversized
@bravesfan112296_PSN said in Ideas for 2025:
●make the lights on the scoreboards that have them(like the Mets scoreboard) actually work
Yes, I agree with that...and also eliminate the block on place lights near or behind the eye...especially because more than a few MLB parks have them in those locations which I never understood SDS decision on that one
@Teak2112_MLBTS said in Extreme Pack in shop:
Sosa was a chase I think
Note the wording on the pack that says they are no sell. Someone will not read what they are buying and come to rant about it
Ugh I hate that they no-sell so many of the packs...such a blatant attempt at funnelling players to the shop for stubs
