I think we can all agree to not post about bad servers for a day once we have a day without bad servers.

This really is the last question that should be getting asked right now.

@tarne67_psn said in Dear SDS:

First off, I want to say thank you for the 16 years I have enjoyed playing The Show, except maybe the start of 2018 when we couldn’t choose our starting team in RTTS. There have been some ups and downs but I have always enjoyed it.

However, I think this might be my last year. Not threatening or anything, it just appears I’m getting to old for the game being almost a 6o yr. old gamer. I could never use the pci. My mind only has enough time to figure out timing and whether it’s a strike or not and sometimes not even enough time for that. I have never been able to use it. So, I can never do the online missions or mission difficulty beyond all-star because the pci shrinks so much. I am not much of a DD player being mostly a rtts player but I do like to do a lot of the missions, conquest, and event stuff but too much of it involves playing online and I can’t do it. I just get creamed by everyone and can never advance I do get addicted to opening packs lol, probably nostalgia from doing it so much when I was a kid. I would never ask for a game to be dumbed down and I am not. Just pointing out my own personal reasons.

But, on to the main issue.

I love RTTS. Every year I would create 3-4 players. All with different looks, names, personalities etc. I always did a power guy, a contact speedster, a starting pitcher, and sometimes a closer. I enjoyed developing them through their career and establishing them as the top in their position. But you have taken all this away. I can’t even make one with a different name or change how they look or anything due to your push towards making everyone play DD. As a RTTS player I still bought stubbs because I wanted the gear for them and like I said, I get addicted to opening packs. There was no need for this push. And speaking of pushing, I wish the game would stop asking me if I wanted to be a two position player. Leave me alone and let me play the game I want to play. Sorry, little rant there. I just get frustrated when I ask myself, Is anyone at SDS a true gamer or have they all forgotten what it’s like to be a gamer and enjoy playing, creating your character, and developing them? You have taken all this away from me and made it all very generic and because of that I do not think I can continue. I will just go back a few years and play that one over and over again.

I really doubt this not will fall upon any ears or if any would agree with me, but it’d my 2 cents.

In addition, just some side notes..
You need a way to be able to call your agent instead of waiting for his yearly one call.
I do not understand this double stat thing and see no purpose for it. Why are they 30-50 but then on my card everything goes to 100 and there seems to be no correlation. 40 speed might be 93 speed but 40 contact might only be 75 contact. It makes zero sense.
Check swings, annoying. I mash the button and get nothing but a check swing, usually only on curveballs and change ups. Add in feature to disable them. I like the realism but when it’s not working its needs to be able to be shut off.

Thank you,

My man I don’t think you’ll find many here arguing with you on this one.

How many times is this gonna get posted? This is getting ridiculous.

This! How this forum only has about 5 different [censored] threads repeating over and over again.

I second this motion

Imagine needing a safe space because a card was in your inventory. You don't have to use it though and it can be buried by getting better cards...

Seriously no one even knows what he allegedly did so who the hell are we to judge?

I didn’t say safe space? We have pride flags available in custom stadiums, Jackie Robinson on the cover and a huge banner in MLB 20 for a month commemorating BLM. I’m asking all movements to be equally supported.

What movement is this supporting? The "lets jump to conclusions and judge someone with absolutely no facts about the situation" movement? Sexual misconduct can mean anything from telling a woman she looks nice today to unwanted penetration. Pretty sure its not the latter because he would be getting arrested right now. He's not being removed from the MLB HOF as per their statement so i think its safe to say that it was nothing violent. Again, who are we to judge? If you dont wanna use the card, dont. There are better 2B in here so buy them up and bury him. You literally dont have to see this card at all unless you intend to go to your inventory every morning to stare at it over a cup of coffee.

You seem to be jumping to a few of your own conclusions there pal.

What have big baller brand got to do with it.

Does anyone here actually find them fun or just something they have to suffer through to get the rewards?

@Shua2168_MLBTS swing animations are built through mocap with people imitating there swings, not with the actual players. And even if they have face scans I’m assuming they will still need permission. I’m not gonna say SDS are perfect by any stretch but this is a stupid hill to choose to die on.

Is it just me or is the content scheduled up until the the 2nd inning a bit... empty?

The top comment after every future live stream should be...

‘It’s a trap’

If you mean on the lineup screen it’s how many different players you have at that tier in your inventory for that position.

That would involve communicating with the community which they seem to have forgotten how to do.

Sosa, all the way.

It’s when the [censored] you are playing is holding r2 so you can’t pitch.

I like that I know how tall every reliever in the game is now.

But all the stuff we need to pay for makes it out on time.

My brain nearly exploded after seeing something positive written in this terrible place!

Quick sell is the sensible thing to do.

I’ll take the hit if they want to take him out of the game right now!
