At this point I'm just happy that I canceled my preorder and switched to Xbox to play it on GamePass. Every time that I try to play, the servers are down or I get Unhandled Exceptions after completing anything.

You are supporting SDS by playing through GamePass. Although it's impossible to know the exact deal that SDS has with Microsoft for GamePass, most of the companies make money based on the number of downloads and time played.

Anyone wishing for EA to take over this game has never played an EA game.

If this is the route SDS is going to take to encourage spending, this might be my last year. I have neither the time nor the money to waste on pay to play. Last year was perfect (including stars rather than this unnecessary XP).

Please remedy this SDS for the loyal Show folks.

I agree. I've been an MLB The Show player since 15 but I'm a casual player. I like this game because I can still put together a decent team without having to play many hours grinding every day and without needing to spend a lot of money. At this point I'm glad that I canceled my preorder and waited for it to hit Game Pass on Xbox. If this is the future direction of this game, this will be my last year also.

I've always hated how they take you out to the main screen after you finish a Moment. The game needs to just take you back to where you were when you started the Moment.

Interesting to see that others also have issues with Frank Thomas. I hit for a good average with him but get no power.

It's funny how you said Rookie pitchers just throw meatballs. There are some for sure, but I literally get 80% of pitches on ROOKIE below the zone or in the dirt. I had one game where they threw 6 straight curveballs in the dirt. I find Rookie the most infuriating to hit on sometimes. It's kind of ridiculous sometimes. I'll do some conquest sometimes and I'll play one or two games on HOF or Legend and I get better pitches to hit on those than Rookie or Vet. ...smh

Yea, I feel the same way. I get almost all garbage, unhittable pitches on Rookie.

The Show runs at 60 fps on the Xbox Series S and X. I play on a Series X with a monitor and there's no choppiness. The gameplay is smooth.

This is what I get every time I try to play this game. Really pathetic SDS.

Every day that I've tried to play this game, I get disconnected. No chance to do anything. SDS, you should've just kept this on PS.

I'm doing moments and I'm not getting any xp. Unhandled Exceptions after every one of them.
