I just want to point out I have had a 2 way player bug out twice now into a single position player. No I never picked not being 2 way either in RTTS. It's stupid. they have bugs from last year in the game, and even new ones. Went in with no expectations this year and still disappointed. If they can expand the game to new platforms they should have all these bugs dealt with in the prep.

That was a long time ago Broken. lol I did get a reply today, but they did not address this issue. Only the other issues listed. I replied to point this out. Hoping they get it fixed soon. It's so bad I pre-ordered F1 2022 because I am not starting over a second time to do the SWHOLEI a 3 times. SMH lol

No change to play one way ever selected, and I have seen it switch SP/C to C/SP while playing RTTS, but its still showing (RTTS and DD) SP only as of this afternoon. Waiting on my ticket. The last few MLBs feel more and more feel unfinished, buggy, and I keep having reminders of EA Madden when I signed up for that lawsuit. I don't want to start a SWOHLEI again. The program is done, and this MLB game has sealed my decision I won't buy the game next year at release. They clearly don't care about fixing issues that are still in the game from the past 2 years. If they can't at least fix just the past 2 years issues then it's a no go to buy at all next year.

Also like to add it is only letting me Pitch in RTTS or DD. I can not get my C position. Even if I switch to a C Archetype. When I look under load out, I can choose any 1 way Archetype, but can not select any 2 way types. I originally had 2 Loadouts with gear for a SP first, and C second.

Anyone else have a SWOHLEI CAP player go from 2 way to only pitcher when they look under the change ballplayer list?

I submitted a ticket.

I only show as SP instead of SP/C on my list, but when I go in I still have in my load out SWOHLEI or whatever its called.

AT launch I had a CAP SWOHLEI just straight up disappear after a week of playing. All my other types have had no issues. UGH... If anyone has dealt with this, and know why I would like to know please, and thank you.

So, why is it my pitching staff has energy loss, but not the other teams? Didn't love seeing Rob Dibble 4 straight games at full strength... The mini seasons are a great addition. It needs depth/expanding. Why not see stats, leaders, etc. during and at the end of the season before I start a new one? This year has been lacking depth in many areas (Looking at you announcers/missing audios that have been there for years.).

Also, add some playoff atmosphere in the mini seasons please like we see in RTTS/MTO.

Anyone else seeing Ken Doll hands on the people on the field? These graphical errors are distracting. Love how players arms are in their chests at the plate also... ugh.

Yup the 2 way pitcher should be prompted if he wants to hit or not. SDS really missing the marks this year.

I got the switch version for the days I am not home. Had issues linking, I figure will get fixed later. Then came all the other switch issues, and I finally returned it. I had to ask for a manager, submit pics/video off all the issues. Was refunded, and big shout out to Nintendo for giving me a credit for my inconvenience on top of my refund. The game should not be launching with similar issues from last year. Even the My Ballplayer DD poses that had graphical issues are still wrong this year. Feels like they slapped lipstick on a pig in my opinion. SMH

Logos not showing up in game. Also, in game the batter info is sometimes a blank/white card. Even blank on the career/game stat lines.

Hitting good/perfect for outs over 80% of the time.....

Pitching Stamina is a joke...

Audio name lists are a joke... why didn't you just import last few seasons along with all the new added names?

Why can't a Created player level in DD instead of RTTS if they prefer?????

The mini seasons keep breaking...

Why are so many batters arms clipping inside they're chests?

Team equipment bat skins aren't switching correctly. A black bat skin not being black?

Connection errors...

What's with the whistle sound in game???

The fan animations are sometimes off (IE saw an entire row of the same face with only different hair??? Fans floating, and fans walking through objects. Best is when they are all exactly in sync. That's creepy, but funny.).

My created player isn't 2 way, but after he PH he was allowed to pitch (WAS like that Rizzo card last year though... lol)?????

Missing XP

Missing stubs from marketplace.

Posted listings in the marketplace disappeared this morning, then showed up, and then gone again.

The program..... I think there is enough posts on that already.

On a positive; the animations do look very smooth, and improved on the field. When the game works (The hitting/pitching doesn't feel like a slot machine.) it's fun.

Really like the idea of mini seasons, but want to see teams more around the same overall (Like 2 below the team you enter, 3 around the same overall, and the other 2 above. It's strange to have all these cards in game, and yet I face the same players on these mini season teams.).

What is funny is there are first names that match my friends last names. Yet, they aren't on the last names like last year. smh

First/Last Name audios missing???

Also if stamina isn't fixed AND there is a DH there would be literally no reason to use the bullpen.

Your logic here is two wrongs make a right? Stamina needs fixed too. I assume it has been but who knows?

Universal DH is the rule in MLB. It should be the rule in MLBTS. It would also open up a lot of bat only cards that rarely get used now.

I don't even like the DH rule, but the game should reflect the rule. Which in DD has never been right for years now.

How am I a clown? Why do you have to talk like that? Do I like the new DH rule? Actually, no I do not. However, I expect the DD mode to reflect the current rules in baseball. It's stupid they don't, but do in all the other modes. Make it an option like some other modes. MLB The Show should have reflected the DH accurately from the start anyway, and has failed again to get it right. That doesn't mean there isn't a lot of good things to look forward too in MLB The Show 22. It's just a real head scratcher how SDS's team say they listen to us, but miss something like this. Very disappointing.

YOU KNEW IT WAS COMING. YOU MADE IT IN EVERY OTHER MODE. SHAME ON YOU.

Thanks. My brother was asking me, and I just assumed I had them under add ons. I was shocked to see there was none. Disappointing

Did MLB 21 come with Team Avatars for Pre-oreder or Deluxe purchases this year? If so, where do I find them?

I noticed during Atlanta's game 2 they had Terrance Gore come in to run, and I looked in the game and noticed he was not anywhere to be found. Will there be Live Cards of these post season players in the final roster update (At least even as Free Agents...?)?

I can confirm after finally getting all the West done I did get all 3 banners.

I just submitted a ticket to let them know what is going on. Between that, connection/server issues, etc. I assume it will be weeks before I get a response in case there is no patch tonight. It's been a rough year with the up and down connections/server issues, adding another console, etc. I have played all the MLB's, and this year is by far the most content. So ya..... lol
