    The more I play Diamond Dynasty, the less fun it gets.
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    Not to pile on, but I will. The games watered down. I’ve said this before, there’s nothing special about any of it this year so far. Maybe it’ll change, but I doubt it. No one can achieve something without making sure everyone can get it. In years past, there were cards that meant something, it meant you were either 1) better than most, or b) spent more than most. Each option was fine and each option had its pros and cons, but at then end of the day, it was a special card. I remember in 17 (or maybe it was 18, they’ll all blur together) the only way you were getting Chipper was a long [censored] grind, and those that got him, felt a sense of some major accomplishment. Now, just play 15-20 mins a day and you can get it because SDS will make sure no ones special. Need more XP, here’s 50k for collecting a card that’s worthless and only takes 15 mins of moments. You can’t make WS? Here, go win/gimmick your way to 40 wins or wait 2-3 weeks and it’ll be dirt cheap so everyone can have it.

    It’s the ultimate participation trophy collection game. I used to wait in massive anticipation for each new ranked season to see what special card I might want to work my [censored] off for, now, meh, I’ll wait two weeks, try it out and then face it in every game I play online. Events? Not worth the effort anymore, cards are barely exciting and it’s turns into whoever can cheese/gimmick/glitch their way to the top level the quickest, wins, sort of.

    It’s all too watered down now. I can load up a RS game, close my eyes, and wait till 4 pitches in and pretty much guess my opponents lineup, starting pitcher, and pitch count with about 90% accuracy. Where’s the excitement? I don’t know, ask SDS, they’re caving just like their mentor Manfred. It’s a race to the bottoms at this point. I sure do hope and pray something changes soon.


  • Someone already has Grady...
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    Actually an even simpler way to fix it, reset servers 10-15 mins before new program drops. That’ll force any open game to close and lose all saved XP. They used to this back in 18-19


  • To everyone that's says it's my fault tot not being able to complete a Moment
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    Posted this in one of your other multi-posts for the day:

    Bro, you really need to find a new game. Every day you complain 2-3 times about how the CPU doesn’t throw you pitches. Last time you provided an image and got roasted over how many missed opportunities you had. Yes, moments can be trying, but it seems they just aren’t for you, find a different mode or different game, life is waaaay to short to spend so much time frustrated. Take your losses, move on, and enjoy whatever else gives you joy. Or, find a different outlet to vent, the people here are not going to comfort you and provide you with zero solace. Maybe a pet tortoise would be best?!?!? It’ll listen to all your complaints, might even agree, and won’t be able to run away.


  • Setting Lineups before seeing opposing pitcher?
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    @meridianswift_psn said in Setting Lineups before seeing opposing pitcher?:

    No -- in real baseball they know. So, no, it's not realism. It's the opposite.

    Correct, but real baseball teams don’t have access to hundreds of all time greats to load up on all lefty/righty power hitters.

    They need to find a balance, but any option they come up with will be exploited. And then there will be ways to counter that, and then ways to counter that counter, and so on...

    Current scenario isn’t ideal, but it works better than anything else at this point.

  • Diamond players
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    @thekingfish15 said in Diamond players:

    I can never get any diamond players in diamond dynasty. Its not fair. I keep seeing videos of players getting 10 diamonds when I get None! Zip! Zilch! Nada! Its not fair, they need to change the odds for diamond players to be more common and frequent.

    Those videos are a joke, they aren’t showing you the thousands of packs they’ve opened with nothing in them. Yes, some people are more lucky than others, but no one ever really tells you how many packs they’ve opened to get the diamond.


  • I like Rob Manfred
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    First, I think you’re using the wrong word, slack means he’s essentially being given a break. I really think you mean flack.

    Second, Manfred is horrible at his job. The sport is bleeding fans and revenue, his job is to grow both. His constant wishy washy, back and forth on gimmicky attempts to speed up the game is doing more harm than good. Also, he’s horrible about transparency. Everyone knew they messed with the baseballs, but he wouldn’t admit it until it was too obvious to deny. Same thing with “sticky stuff.”

    Like him or not, Bauer called him out on it 2+ years ago and proved how beneficial the stuff is, he essentially told Manfred and the league he would win the Cy Young and he did. Again, Manfred waited too long to address the issue.

    Lastly, the whole Astros fiasco was and still continues to be a sore spot with the league. He handled it horribly, both from a players standpoint, but more importantly, for the fans.

    There’s just a few issues he’s managed poorly, this list could go on quite a while.


  • Did they Nerf XP this inning?
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    @hes-a-wall_psn said in Did they Nerf XP this inning?:

    XP has returned to normal. We were getting double XP for a long while.

    No we weren’t. Double XP ended quite a long time ago. During double XP, I would get 4-5k per AS Conquest. When that ended, it dropped to 2,500 to 3k. Now it’s down to 1500 to 2k. Yes, they extended it past the initial promoted weekend, but that only lasted for a week or two. Please trust me, I have spreadsheets tracking all my XP (I’m a numbers geek, I accept who I am).


  • Are packs a scam?
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    Odds heavily favor you walking away disappointed. But then again, there’s a reason casinos do so well.


  • Can we please stop with the three inning daily moments?
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    Especially with forcing players to play with a team that may be a rival and having to beat your favorite team. I get it’s all make believe, but I really didn’t want to beat my Phils with Mets when in the middle of a frustrating series.


  • What card would you pay $5 mil for
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    @untchable704_psn said in What card would you pay $5 mil for:

    I dont have 5 million but a 99 Carlos Beltran with some speed would make me grind the market on top of donating plasma.

    This is the ONLY choice. That Beltran back in 17(?) was the best ever.


  • QOL for MLB The Show 22
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    I’m sorry, I want to empathize, but I just can’t on this one. It’s a blessing that SDS even created the BR program, prior years it was all about going 12-0, now there’s a shot at getting some decent rewards by just playing and winning. Instead of “wasting” 35 drafts, how about just playing them and racking up W’s? Even winning 1-2 games per draft nets 50-70 pts, more than half way through the program. Plus bonus pts if you can string some hits and strikeouts in a single run. You want them to guarantee mission players so it takes even fewer runs to net a high diamond that sells for a decent chunk? Perhaps they should just award 10 pts each entry and everyone can get the program done in 10 or fewer entries? They’ll be more than happy to accommodate, but don’t be surprised then when the reward is a high gold and you only get the high diamond for 12-0. I’m never one to look a gift horse in the mouth, be happy they’ve given you a chance at a great reward that otherwise most of us couldn’t even dream about attaining.

    @chuckclc_psn said in Scouting Report Pack:

    No goodies this time? The one with the banner was actually pretty cool. Think I am wearing that banner now. This just had a common, bronze and a silver player for me.

    This month was a pack that contained a Scouting Report Icon and three player items.

    I didn’t receive any icon in my pack, just three player cards.


  • Clutch Hitter
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    Finley, for me, he is the epitome of clutch, ALWAYS!!!


  • AS Realmuto vs SIG Piazza
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    I’m biased, but for real, JT ASG is the single best catcher in the game. I know loads of people use Schwarber, but he can’t throw anyone out either. JT hits both sides really well, and his reverse stats play extremely well when opponents try to play matchup games with him.


  • Anybody have any guesses on what these symbols mean?
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    @Bicarbonate_Fury_MLBTS

    I don’t think a life preserver is saving the Phillies, they need the full on coast guard and navy to show up


  • MLB.tv PSA
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    I was involved in a conversation a week or so ago and people were asking about different options for watching MLB games for free. As an FYI, for Mother's Day, MLB.tv is streaming every game at no charge for the day. I’m sure local blackout restrictions will apply. Enjoy the games today and don’t forget to tell mom you love her (if you’re able to).


  • Rob Manfred
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    Double header needs to go, as well as relief limit. I don’t mind the extra innings rule, speeds it up. No one enjoyed 14+ inning games, ruined the teams for weeks.

    The real fix needs to be the defensive shifts, data doesn’t lie, it’s killing baseball. BABIP is in serious decline, fans like action, shifts offer no action. (I said this in a different post earlier)


  • TURN OFF ASSISTED BASERUNNING!
  • SavageSteve74_PSNS SavageSteve74_PSN

    @grizzbear55_psn said in TURN OFF ASSISTED BASERUNNING!:

    Sounds like user error to me. Baserunning is 100% in my control, only on the lazy flys and bloopers are they hesitant due to tagging up purposes, but other than that it's works perfect for me.

    Umm, you couldn’t be more wrong, but thanks for participating:
