I made it to the 85 Live Series pack. I probably won’t play again before Friday. Might not play much more at all. I’ve just lost interest. It has nothing to do with people using whatever exploit you get packs and moreso to do with the game has gotten stale. The previous 2 years, I’ve quit earlier and earlier. 24 I was out at all star break. Last year I was out a few weeks before all star. This year, I’m out at the start of June. I’ve gotten the game for free this year and last so I’m not concerned about wasting money or anything.

HOF? Nah, I’ll just buy from the market.

Another Yankee card has been released.

You have to remember who the Immortals were from The Show 18.

I feel like Posada is always expensive. He’s always either a collection reward, a flawless reward, etc. This is one of the first years he’s been “free”.

@T4RbRuSh_XBL posada is weekend classic.

Soto is a Boss and it’s a Yankee card.

Yay. Another Yankee boss! /s

I mean seriously. There’s 29 other teams. I get it that the Yankees have so many players that have been good. But, come on.

This will be the first time I haven’t completed an inning that I’ve played during. The XP isnt there, the constant web gems by the CPU even on rookie are insane. I just don’t have the desire to play anymore. SDS and their horrible decisions have destroyed my love of baseball. I’ll try Konami’s game.

I’m basically talking about Halverson, who’s been a bronze/common for a few years, and still get outlier. Maybe there’s others. Was playing couch vs a friend and he brought him out of the pen throwing 103 every pitch.

Why are all these common pitchers able to have outlier? I’m pretty sure if they were throwing 103 every pitch, they wouldn’t be a scrub.

@Sarge1387_PSN

Or you’ve got overweight 1b jumping like their MJ and making grabs they wouldn’t in real games. In Showdown, I get it, they want it to be harder, but when I’m grinding on Rookie, against the lowest ranked teams, they shouldn’t be pulling web gems at least once an inning.

It definitely is for me. I don’t want to have a “chance” At a card, so I don’t play DQ. I don’t want to play on All-Star, so I won’t be getting that card that’s locked to MS. The WBC MS counts wins as losses sometimes, so I’ve given up on that, until fixed. I really don’t play online, especially since the Gamepass price hike. That leaves a few conquests where the rewards for repeating them aren’t that great, and the normal MS, if I’m grinding on DD. I’ve quit this game earlier and earlier every year and this one looks to be the same. Plus, I’m not including the horrible menus, the bugs that make me have to quit out and restart the game, etc.

I’ve played maybe 100-150 games so far this year. All offline, not an online player. I have yet to hear a hit that doesn’t sound like a ping pong ball being hit. Is it a bug on my end? Are there other batting sounds? Like last year, perfects sounded like a whip being cracked almost. This year, they sound… dull.

Anyone else having XP not count?

@Dolenz_PSN you get one or the other.

So it’s a St. Patrick’s pack or a Show pack. Laughable. Why so stingy with the rewards?

I love RoFlo. I watch him stream sometimes. He’s a funny, well spoken, decent dude. That said, his commentary is bland, trying too hard to be fourth wall breaking, and overall not good.

On the flip side of that, the normal commentary team hasn’t been updated like at all, it seems. They can say players names, but I haven’t heard any new lines. I have since turned the commentary off. If I had to hear about “garlic fries, yo!” One more time, it would’ve been my 13th reason.

I got banned from SDS twitch chat a few years ago. No excuse for whatever I did. (Not being facetious, it’s been a long time and I don’t remember.). I’d like to get unbanned and be able to contribute. Who would I have to speak to about that?

I’ll give two more:

1. Diamond Quest sucks. If I’m putting that much time into a mode, the rewards should be guaranteed. I don’t care about tanking the card price. Make them No Sell.

2. Conquest has taken at least two steps back this year. The shark map was good, only when compared to the other maps we have this year.
