That’s it for me too . I won’t be playing this year . On game pass I would play to see if it was worth buying. For the last 2 yrs. It hasn’t been worth it , in my opinion. When I played it on game pass I’d buy Stubbs for 75 to 100 bucks so SDS would get some money from me . Now they won’t get anything from me, unless I see the reviews are great , then I’ll wait until the game is on sale only. Besides I honestly don’t think it will improve that much the 1st yr. Being on current gen systems , especially still being on the Switch . text

Good then don't buy the game, no one will miss you. You seem to be the only one who has a problem with this game. I've been playing this game game since mlb 22 and it's just been getting better every year and I will continue to buy it when it comes out

Champs , I have to disagree with you on the games getting better every year . I’ve been playing for the last 4 or 5 years & really loved this game . But I think last yrs was a disappointment & this year was far worse . Reading hundreds of comments on this forum this year it seems the majority of fans think this also , except for the normal 4 or 5 people always praising the game . This yrs. Version has a lot flaws . I hope SDS does a hole lot better next time . I love baseball & I like everyone else just want to play a great game of baseball.

Jeez champs , why the pissy comment ? It didn’t seem like a bad or stupid question to me . If you didn’t like it just don’t answer.

I agree with you . I hate the inconsistency of hitting when you hit the ball on the barrel of the bat and you get a real nice hit like you should . But other times when you hit the ball on same spot I get a fly ball to the infield or short flyball to the short part of the outfield. I know I’m not going to get a hit every time & that’s cool . I know the ball will be hit right to the players too , I see that & that’s ok . It just seems inconsistent. It seems like the CPU’s all have 99 speed . You can hit a nice hard hit ball in the gaps of the outfield .and it never fails , a outfielder with slow to average speed chases the ball down before getting to the fence, holding a good to average speed guy to a single . Happens a lot to me . Also not good when an infielder dives for the ball & turns a double play on runners with good to average speed .

Dang, someone fell out of bed into a pile of dog [censored] this morning.

The “idiot comment” was only about his comment about the Tigers cheating. The Tigers earned their playoff spot ! There is no proof the Tigers cheated at anything . Just because he doesn’t like Hinch and the Astros . The Tigers are very young & hopefully have a good future. And the gritty Tigers are up 2 games to 1 against a good Guardians team . I’m very proud of them ! Anyway , l apologize to Blindrhino for calling him an idiot . Sorry . Go Tigers !!!

@theBlindRhino_PSN you’re an idiot !!!

Sorry about that . I got to crazy . They’re still in the playoffs & like I said who would have thunk it !

Congratulations to the Detroit Tigers getting into the playoffs as a wild card !!! And maybe the division winners ! Who’d a thunk it !!!

I’m 57 . I’m disabled. ( chronic back & hip pain , 2 bad surgeries ) . I mostly play casually . Mostly rookie or veteran against the cpu on DD or Franchise. I Love baseball . I play once in a while against people and get my [censored] beat and go back to casual. I’ve been playing The Show since the first year on Xbox. I mostly have a lot of fun, but this year’s game has been pretty frustrating at times with bad glitches, bad play mechanics and other problems. But I’m still playing & hoping it gets better.

I play against the cpu on rookie and veteran most of the time. I’ve struck out more times now, since the foul ball fix than ever . The timing is so off . I don’t know if they messed with the timing to fix the foul ball glitch or what. Sometimes they try to fix things and only make things worse. There is so many mechanical glitches in this game this year . Someone mentioned the runners stopping in between bases . This has been happening to me for years off and on . Not just this year. And for the people who like the foul ball fix . The better players . This might hurt you a little bit too . People that aren’t as good at online play may be worse, strike out more , not get hits , and so on . Not as many cannon fodder for the good players . They’ll get frustrated and not play. Just my opinion.

Last night I earned my first . I picked Jimmy Rollins . I usually play 2 to 4 , 9 innings games against the computer a day . I’ve completed a few mini seasons. I’ve tried ranked a few times . I don’t really care for doing the maps very much , but I’ll do 1 or 2 if I have to . In collections , I’m up to just getting Al Leiter .

Sometimes I just don’t understand some of you guys that constantly stick up for SDS and this game . I started playing the Show the 1st year it came to Xbox and really, really loved it ! It took me a couple of years to get used the play mechanics. I still pretty much suck . I really like to play offline more than online against other people. But I liked that you could earn just about every card in the game . I learned how to flip cards to get the ones I couldn’t earn . But this year it seems they want everyone to pay money to get packs and cards. I’m 57 yrs. Old & disabled. ( chronic back pain after 2 failed surgery’s ) I’m on pain medication (strong) I like to play on rookie or veteran. All star & above is like a sweat fest that kills my back. Anyway I think this years game is a big disappointment to me so far . It’s not as smooth in gameplay, hitting (to me) is very inconsistent. The nerfing in XP is absolutely terrible , it feels like after a game I’ve gotten nowhere in Xp . I don’t like that you can no longer use your CAP player in DD . At least sds could let you use your CAP in DD just against the computer in mini seasons and conquest . That shouldn’t upset the players that play online. If the game keeps going this way ,l may not play after this year . But I love Baseball and that’s what keeps me going . Anyway sorry this is so long . Just my opinion .

I’m pulling for Torkelson . In my opinion , he deserves a great card . Him and Carpenter have been tareing it up for the Tigers !

I’m with you 100% . It also seems flipping is harder this year . If next years game is like this year , I may not play it .

@TayZuuR__PSN said in Hitting:

I honestly have been struggling hitting this year. It doesn't feel good in my opinion. PCI placement always seems to be off, even though I feel I place it where I want it, and then I end up being too early or too late on a lot of pitches that I feel like I've timed well. Not sure if it's me just playing bad, or if hitting is just that much different then the last couple years game.

Same here. Seems like 50% of the time the PCI stays smack dab in the middle even though I’m moving it to where the pitch is.

Same with me . I play on the Xbox series x . Even on rookie it’s frustrating at times . To me the hitting is weak compared to 21 & 22 . Seems like a nice pci placement with the ball right in the middle of the pci I get very week contact . That’s pretty frustrating .

I’m having the same problem. No pictures on cards . Come on SDS !

@thelemurking85_PSN said in I've seen MLB uniforms in the Tech Test:

Mine keeps defaulting to the Orioles jersey. I keep trying to change it by going into customize home or road jersey. But no matter what I do or how many times I save any changes, every time I go into a game I get the Orioles jersey. I don’t know what I did. I picked my colors and team name when I first launched the tech test like I’m sure most did.

Same thing with me here . I tried everything I could think off also . I can only play in the Orioles home unis .

@dap1234567890 said in Custom stadium question ?:

If your created stadium has the bat in a crossed out red circle icon (as seen below in the top right corner), you cannot use it DD. Also, you have to wait about 15-20 minutes after you upload it to the server before you can use a created stadium.

Thank you for your response, but this isn’t why I can’t use custom stadiums. I’ve been using custom stadiums all this year . I’ve had this happen 3 or more times this year . Now my saves don’t work for franchise and download from the cloud for franchise and Rtts also does not work . They all come up error and a row of #s pop up . This also happened to me last year . Love the game , but this stinks !

Anybody else having problems with playing in custom stadiums ? The game won’t let me play in a custom stadium. This isn’t the 1st time either . It’s happened 3or 4 times this year . And then in a few days later it lets me pick a created stadium to play in again . I pick an uploaded stadium and it says “error” . Anybody else have this problem ? Thanks .
