you talking about Brunellius Gatorade dude ?

absolutely ridiculous when you consider how long many cards take to acquire

truly who wants to play with all bronzes at this point in the year

horrible decision making on their part

4 patches in around a week from launch of game ??? this is a joke at best

we did Beta phase in January - it completely shows a lack of confidence from the game devs in having to constantly change up the sliders and backend settings every couple of days

@EvylShaun said in No, I won't sell my extra Ramos':

I don't need 1,000 stubs, and I'm too lazy to look for something I don't need. Also I probably don't want you to have or care if you can't get Mantle.

I'm sure they will eventually end up in exchanges.

pretty sad life you must lead - a good reminder for all of us normal people to love their kids and family - look what happens when you don't

@theninjaraven_psn said in All monitor/ strikezone players suck at the game:

All you cheaters who need fast response computer monitors/ only can use strikezone setting/ little thumb grips, and a binky up your [censored]...this is the only way you win.

Real actual good players dont need all that in order to win. We play on Ps5s or 4's with a tv. So called top players use all the bells and whistles to get where they are. This is why every pitch you pitch to these sad little ones is a homerun hit. Cheaters. Said my peace girls.

lol

what a small Dck energy this poster gives off

@flukehr-mitch_psn said in This forum is sad:

i understand the frustration people are having when the gameplay has regressed in nearly every aspect

absolutely mate

you have a small group of guys on here who will just praise everything - you can see easily who they are - just lap dogs really eating up whatever is presented to them in a bowl

@rf21_psn said in No Point in Playing Ranked Seasons:

I consider myself an avg to above avg player. Last year I could make it to Championship get close to world series but have never made it there. I enjoy collecting all the cards that become available. Last year I was able to get the cards by racking up the wins. Yes, to SDS' point, quit a game early if I knew I was going to lose, but full games are only valuable to content creators not most players. And I only have so much time to play, need to maximize my time if I want to get all the cards and play all the modes.

With this year's change, no way I get to world series. Not even by "just playing the games" 400 innings is basically 44 games. That means between 35-40 hours of gameplay per season. If I commit to that I won't have time to do BR, events and so on. I rather do the other modes and still have the competition aspect in events and BR.

SDS- anyway you can tweak this? Maybe a combination of XP and innings? Or getting to certain levels (division series, championship) "buys" you a number of progress requiring less innings or XP to reach WS? Otherwise, someone like myself just don't see the point of playing ranked when I'm trying to get as many cards as possible.

you are absolutely right - only people with nothing else going on in their personal lives will be able to consistently reach 400 IP per month - with each game taking roughly 1 hr, imagine spending 40-50 hours per month on just RS alone - unreal

@cermixalot1 said in Stop undercutting the market:

You’re not doing anyone any favors, yourself included, if you put buy orders in that significantly undercut the value of a card.

/rant

you need to read the 2nd post in your ridiculous thread - read it over and over and over and over and over

and also learn to understand how markets work

was that a haiku ?

you sound like a poet

@MiJuJuKaLa said in I can’t believe how bad this game is now:

There have been some versions in the past that were bad (yes, I’m looking at you 18), but hitting has never been THIS unrewarding.

I was a Top 50 player last year, went 12-0 in BR multiple times, and always made WS. But this year’s version is a steaming pile.

I’m just so bummed. This game was so great when it launched. ️

really happy to see your post i feel the same and hope that SDS brings it back to the original patch - this is why we had a beta test right?

It doesn’t matter with Blackmon. He could have 50 power and hit a no doubter. His swing is so good for me every year.

My perfect perfect swings bouncing off the wall beg to differ.. I've almost had 3 inside the park homeruns and still haven't got it..

the amount of time you posted this you could've finished that mission

@mightytapir_PSN said in This game won’t last:

Does anyone actually like how easy they’ve made it to get all the best players in the game? Am I the only one that actually enjoyed having to put some effort in to build my team? I played for one hour and had a full team of 90s... what’s the motivation to keep playing? I don’t see how this game lasts. 3 days in and I’m already bored. I can’t be the only one.

hahahah you are definitely on the fringe here - what a useless and bad opinion you have on this

@TheHungryHole said in Your early review of MLBTS 23:

great to hear gents - i am going to jump into this tomorrow night - any advice on what to do first ?

Personally what i did was go through the TA and just did all the moments. You get a gold/diamond choice pack for those. After i did all those, i went to the WBC program, knocked out those moments and then the showdown.

All the cards i had unlocked, i put a team together and did the WBC conquest....then moved on to the TA conquests and completing all the henchmen missions.

Right now, im playing the US Conquest with a team full of captains and 2 henchmen, trying to get their missions done. By the time im done with this map, ill finish a few collections then do something i havent done in almost 4 years. Play ranked.

thank you very much for your time i am going to dive in tonight for a bit for the first time

thank you so much guys - i have screenshotted what you said and will do that - appreciate your help - i'd rather have an all diamond squad before jumping into RS

great to hear gents - i am going to jump into this tomorrow night - any advice on what to do first ?

Haven’t gotten to do much yet due to having to work today but in the Sets like set 1 for example once it switches to set 2 then the set one cards become unavailable to use online like in a ranked game but don’t disappear completely right?

Thats incorrect. You can use set 1 and 2 during Set 2 if that makes sense. Once set 3 comes you can only use set 2 and 3. You can carry over one card from a set thats expired though.

that's cool - you can carry over a card - can you do that for the whole year? pardon my ignorance this whole system is very new compared to previous years

They’ve only announced the first 3 seasons but I would imagine they will roll it back like @SaveFarris_PSN described moving forward so it would look like like this.

Season 1- anything
Season 2- anything
Season 3- Set 2, set 3, core
Season 4- set 3, set 4, core
Season 5- set 4, set 4, core
Etc

That is my guess

thank you for that - i am slow like Simple Jack and still have little idea what this means - what is core? no need to answer, this dumb brainboi will figure it out in time - i got the standard edition see you on the field mate

if there is this ranked co-op @raesONE-_PSN can we wreck kids?

Sorry brother, I'm not playing. Might pick up the game later at a discount but I don't want to cry and complain all the time and still buy and support.

absolutely fair - i am playing diablo this weekend and if you do pick it up let me know it would be a gas for ole times sake - have a great weekend over there - we are getting the first remnants of spring see ya later winter

@SchnauzerFace_MLBTS said in LOTS of missing legends:

I was digging through the CAP batting stances and these are the dudes who are notably absent from last year:

Kirk Gibson
Bill Mazeroski
Ray Durham
Larry Walker
Ron Santo
Eric Davis
Shane Victorino
Adam Dunn
Juan Pierre
Garrett Anderson
Jay Buhner

I will absolutely miss Mazeroski, Davis, Durham, and Dunn.

I haven’t looked through pitcher windups yet, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we lose quite a few of them too.

EDIT: Eric Davis is clearly in the game (he already has a charisma card), so hopefully it’s just a case of some stances being MIA for the time being.

DOUBLE EDIT: Dunn and Mazeroski both also have confirmed cards (but no batting stance). No need to panic — most (all?) of these guys are probably still safe!

Jay [censored] was my fav each year his card that is brutal he is out this year

@LuvMyXBOX_XBL said in NO FACE SCANS!!!!:

game is 4 hours old relax

It's only been 4 hours, how can you expect a finished game only 4 hours after launch? People these days want a game they paid $100 for to have connection issues and missing features. What's wrong with you people, you expect too much from these developers. They added Negro Leagues and you dare complain!

excellent post m'lord
