    Idea for Reformatting Ranked seasons.

    Have an actual regular season, and post season.

    Regular season, in order to advance you must win 12 of 20 games. If you fail to win 12 within 20, you miss playoffs and have to start over. This advances you to divisional series.

    Divisional series, you have to win 3 of 5 to advance

    Championship series is best of 7

    World Series is best of 7.

    The maximum games played to win your world series is 39, least is 23. Thats a pretty average amount of games for most ranked season runs.

    It adds a level of excitement, and would be a nice change of pace.

    As far as variable difficulty levels, im open to ideas...but i would love the above format.

    Campaign to Re-Design Ranked Seasons

    It needs to be re-worked...

    The current system of rating points is dated, stale, and unappealing to most of us. Ranked Seasons needs a shot in the arm. Here's my proposal

    NEW REGULAR SEASON AND PLAYOFF SYSTEM

    • All players start in the regular season pool whereby you must win 12 out of 20 games to "advance" to the playoffs. As soon as you win your 12th game, you're in, and move on to a Divisional Series best of 5. (Rewards tiers based on number of wins, culminating with a Wild Card pack if you make playoffs).

    • Divisional Playoffs where you have to win 3 out of 5 to advance. You only play other players who are also in divisional round, unless a similar player is unavailable in which case you would be matched up with the next available. (Earns a DS Rewards Pack if successful)

    • League Championship Series: Same rules as above, best of 7 (Earns a CS Reward Pack if Successful)

    • World Series: Same rules as above best of 7 (Earns a World Series Rewards pack if successful)

    NEW PITCHER SELECTION METHOD (No more Kluber/Newhouser every game)

    Now, rather than choosing your pitcher, you have to build a staff. Once you build your staff, you lock it in. Your staff remains intact unless you move on or are eliminated. Voluntary forfeits allowed.

    • Regular Season: You build a 5 man rotation, and each man 1 through 5 starts in order regardless of opponent.
    • Division Series: You build a 3 man rotation
    • Championship Series: 4 man rotation
    • World Series: 4 man rotation

    You are allowed to bring in starters for relief appearances at a severe energy penalty imposed on that pitchers next start. Relief appearance will feature that pitchers current energy level at decreased velocity and break.

    LINEUP CHANGES AND ROSTERS

    I move for hitters to be moved in and out of your roster at your leisure, although Im very open to other ideas. The reason for the pitching restrictions is to implement more pitching variety into RS.

    NUMBER OF ENTRIES

    You can repeat the season as often as you like, although you can only earn rewards once per RS cycle.

    LETS START A MOVEMENT! KEEP THIS THIS POST AT THE TOP!

    The Perfect/Perfect Bait and Switch

    I was so excited for this MLB 20 because it was advertised that user input would matter more than ever. That's all I ever wanted; all I ever asked for. Perfect/Perfect was going to mean at least an .800 batting average, Good/Good would mean....and so on.

    Turns out...the displayed outcome of user input was just randomized. Absolutely randomized. Good timing, PCI dead center....the game, "No it wasn't....Good/Ok." It happens again, and you think, ok, I gotta get better. Been playing this game since launch, half the time dead center PCI means Good/Ok. Perfect/Perfect PCI position's are completely random.

    Another f'n RNG experience. You got me SDS. You F'g got me.

    Yeah, better players are still going to have more success...I don't know what my record is anymore, something like 44-14 or something like that. Better player's will still win more games (I'm not even that good my records probably a little inflated). But I don't can't the negativity in here on anyone other than the programmers. When you see something is Clearly red, and the game says, "no it isn't...it's blue," people are going to get pissed off.

    All I'm saying, for all those raging on these message boards...I understand. Those taking shots at the ragers. I get it. Understand we're here because of the way the game plays.

    LS Collection

    For the last three seasons I've collected the entire live series on the first day of release. There is no way to do this, other than to drop $1,500 on stubs, give or take. You get the benefit of playing with a stacked team against other rosters filled out with golds and a few diamonds. It's a lot of fun, but within roughly two to four weeks, the playing field will be leveled. And your advantage will go away, and you'll realize that you could have just waited to have the exact same team for significantly less, had you just waited a couple weeks.

    This year, I'm opting out of the day one buy in. Although I said the same last year, I'm really going to try this time.

    *Edit...I'm 41 years old, have been playing the show since it was on PS1. I've built a life where I could drop that money and not feel it. Please do not waste your money, or put yourself in debt to do this. It's NOT WORTH IT.

    RE: No Point in Playing Ranked Seasons

    So I haven't played Ranked Seasons yet, but I'm I reading this right? 400 innings nets the world series reward? I mean I LOVE THAT IDEA...to combat dashboarding...love it.

    RE: Astros Fan

    @felbergshoot14_mlbts said in Astros Fan:

    I don't mean this in any sort of disrespect or anything, what is your guys take on the cheating? I genuinely want to know.

    As a Dodger Fan, I'll never forgive them for 2017. However, my anger is directed at that team only. I really like and respect Dusty Baker. I hate Altuve and Correa to the point where I refuse to use them in the show (I know that's petty, but whatevs). Everything that group said about the situation made it worse. I have nothing against Astros fans.

    If my team wasn't robbed of a World Series, I'd have long since been over it.

    RE: How do you feel about mlb 20 right now

    I'm sorely disappointed in the gameplay. Fielding has been a disaster all year. Random outcomes suck the fun right out of it. Online play is worse than it's ever been. I expected better. We'll see what PS5 brings.

    Say you dont quality to advance...do you still get somekind of reward in your scenario?

    I'm thinking reward scenarios would be as follows:

    Regular Season Failure to make playoffs: Separate tier rewards for 5 wins and 10 wins. (Silver cards or something akin to current pennant race rewards.

    Making playoffs: Maybe you get a gold card?

    Playoff Rounds, You don't get the reward if you don't win the series. And when you do, Division Series, Championship Series, and World Series earns rewards similar to what we already get for those levels in Ranked Seasons.

    RE: People are getting a little stupid now with the prices on the Market

    @dsparks0014_mlbts said in People are getting a little stupid now with the prices on the Market:

    I want to sell my Bay now but that activity the last hour seems sketchy. Last thing I want is to sell and then get banned for some unkown reason.

    That's what I mean. I would try to sell at the highest buy now price if that would be profit for you. Putting it up for 93K could get you in trouble I think. When I get home from work and see what the collection is doing to the market then I will evaluate what cards to sell and at what price. I know cards will inflate but probably not like that.

    The market is going to break this weekend, if you were fortunate enough to stock up on the collection cards, you're going to be rich with stubs by close of business Sunday night.
