A post about quality control with bad grammar and misspellings.

Snell was having one of the best starts in WS history and got pulled after 73 pitches.

Hey Brexit wasn’t all bad then, still get the stub sale.

He had a butter knife and you had the chef’s knife, he out cooked you.

Your losing out on two switch hitters with 125/125 vs lefty’s and any future collections they could be part of. Big L

Saw this on Reddit and figured I’d share. Draft BR until you get Mondesi, steal two bases, now you can unlock him without the collection.

Respect? Dude made a HORRIBLE base running decision and was dead to rights. Dodgers just commited the biggest choke job in sports history. Rays were handed a game they didn’t earn. Oh well, At least it’s not a real World Series.

It was not a horrible base running decision.

Gotta force the defense to make a play there, the Rays bullpen really didn't have anyone to go for extra innings. They needed the win there

Besides, "DIDN'T EARN? even if the throw was made and Arozerana was out, that still means the other run scored, so it was earned. It certainly wasn't the Dodgers game.

Nope, Didn’t earn it. But who cares, It’s just the meaningless covid championship.

It counts, it’s a real life MLB game.

It could happen soon, hit Sony up and start asking, if enough people do it could get some momentum. SDS doesn’t have a solution and are completely ignoring the situation. They’ve literally canceled their live streams to avoid having to even address the situation to the public.

Why wouldn’t they put in two orders for 500k? A million stub order if it gets filled is worth 900k max. Two 500k orders will never get filled and will still be worth a million.

Get the diamond perk that gives you a exit velo boost when the pitchers stamina is below 50% and Clear for Takeoff. Once you get Kensley to 30 pitches you’ll have two perks that boost exit velo. Literally everything is crushed after that.

Personally I would have preferred they went in the completely opposite direction. Cap out the rewards at 85s to start. That would make silvers, golds, and live series players actually have a purpose other than for collections (they might as well be hats or jerseys). And when you got that first diamond, it would feel like an accomplishment. If you pulled a diamond, it would feel like a huge win. Call me crazy, but it seems like that would be a fun game.

The community has been quite vocal about how SDS has capped out rewards early on and nerf what should be good cards (April POTMs for example) just to meet these requirements. SDS has listened to the community, thought outside the box when it comes to how to improve on the fantasy card-collecting type of modes of sport games. We understand that you may not like it, but the majority of the community asked SDS to come up with something different and they did.

Not sure if you can speak on behalf of the community nor that the "majority of the community asked them to". Some will like it, some won't.

I'm not speaking on behalf of the community, the community has been speaking for itself over the past several years.

This is a ridiculous comment. Of course you’re speaking for the community. That’s literally exactly what you did. Which is fine, but own it.

You are truly stubborn in your ways, my friend. You came to wrong place to get your confirmation bias needs here! All you have to do is check out the history of this community forum, all the other community forums on this game, and the history of social media articles on this game to find out the majority voice about this topic. Either you learn to enjoy the game or not is your choice. I am willing to bet your prediction of this game not lasting is not going to pan out like you think. I wish you happiness in life, my friend, and maybe you should go enjoy something other than this video game in order to find that happiness!

It’s definitely common knowledge that the start of the year and using lower rated cards is considered to be the best part of the game. Creating a false narrative isn’t going to change peoples minds.

Just did a conquest game and won 4-0. That got me 1254xp, if you only played conquest it would take 518 three inning games to finish everything with no dropped games.

Sure if that's the ONLY way you could earn XP. But it's not as I posted earlier. Your 518 games completely ignores collections, showdown, conquests, player programs, & daily missions.

Just giving numbers, it’s about 130 hours of gameplay to finish without any of the other ways. I haven’t been able to finish a game all night so those numbers might be a little low.

They took away 2x before they fixed their servers. What a complete train wreck this year has been.

@untchable704_psn said in Any reason to do exchange sets?:

I’ve been going back and forth on it because I have like 7k commons. I definitely don’t want to list them all haha. But if each common averages 35 stubs and it takes 25k, 50k and 75k to do them then that is 52,500 stubs per exchange. Seems steep.

I don’t know what the price per with silvers
/golds would be though.

Look for cheap golds right now, there’s an 83 Wade Boggs that’s selling for like 1100.

if you only casually (once every couple of days) don't expect to finish programs, regardless of the servers, the programs have and always will be meant for the grind. You can't just play every couple days, not grind and expect to be rewarded.

They always reward people for playing the game (when we can play it) and they always do a good job at putting out content. Maybe extending the inning program is not the best way to reward people that have had issues but they still need to reward people that are going through issues.

why do we need to be rewarded?

We have had tons of server issues, people losing stubs, people losing cards and ranked seasons record issues. At the very least a 10 pack bundle.

and a ten pack bundle? so you can pull some bronzes, meanwhile the guy that played one day when it released pulls infinite diamonds lol.

Did you notice what I said there "the very least"

They should be giving people more than that.

They gave us a new game during a pandemic. You sound entitled.

We are all entitled to a working game.

Unfortunately this is a PSN game, they own SDS, that’s the issue with MLB the Show... no competition to drive them to produce a quality product. It’s really that simple.

I’m hoping this opens the door for a new game to compete with The Show. Seems like complacency and greed derailed this years game.

I get the whole "rage against corporations" but you are so far off base here. It was MLB not SDS that forced the game to XB as well as PS. It was MLB not SDS that decided to then put it into XB gamepass. The second decision exacerbated what was already going to be an issue of expanding the player base. The last #s I saw in Jan of this year gamepass had 18 million subscribers and it wasn't announced until 4/2 that the game would be available on gamepass. How do you prepare for that kind of influx when your game is supposed to drop just a few weeks later? That's not complacency or greed on SDS part which is who you are railing against.

You sure are putting a lot of words in my mouth lol. Of course Sony and the MLB forced SDS’s hand in putting the game out on Xbox but management at SDS had to green light the timeline. They over promised and under delivered so they are accountable for that.

@chuckclc_psn said in Server Maintenance:

It was fine all night. They just had the reg scheduled server maintenance at 7amPT. I was playing from about 10pm to 230am central no problems.

I got dropped during another showdown final last night, probably sixth or seventh at this point. It was stable for longer yesterday but the same problems are still there.
