Thank you for the gameplay updates. You listened to the community and spent the time to update this. I don't play any other video games and I bought a PS5 to maximize this game too. Releasing this game on many consoles and have the additional features was super ambitious and I am sure people were forced to do A LOT more with a lot less during Covid-19 since this seems to be motto for corporations.

Thank you for letting the ball land and not dash boarding. This game freezes and you quit when you are losing because you have better things to do. You don't bunt dance and you R2 once to see pitches like it was intended. I think this is the majority of the players on MLB The Show, I think 75%. I know it is cheesy, but thank you for not being a Jabroni.
I don't get it and it is super lame, but it happens so frequently. Are people experiencing something similar? People are grinding stats for parallel or the BR rewards. Why is it so hard to let the ball land? "It might affect the stats on my silver pitcher?" I hope this could be a small update in future games where the stat counts.
People can rage quit all they want if it triggers them, but it seems like this is punishing everyone. Getting hits with silver Eddie Matthews or gold flashback Santana in this game is HARD because they suck and I suck at this game too!
I really hope they fix this so we can all play BR again. BR has been pretty trash after 6 wins. Turn off contact swing if you are still so clueless right now but know it creates 120 mph exit velocity... come on bruh... "We know there is a problem, but we will still leave it in there even though we have other alternatives like turning it off while we have time to work on the mechanics." SDS could look 20X smarter if they turned off contact swing 3 weeks ago. This is embarrassing on many many levels. This is the definition of stupid beyond imagination... You can turn it off while you work on it if you already admit it is broken.

Playing players like Cabera and his 100mph sinkers and 102mph FB in All Star and i can barely see the ball not alone try and hit it!
I do agree that Contact Swing is a joke, ive resorted to using it myself just to compete.
Yeah between pin point being way too OP and contact swing ruining hitting and pitching at the same time this [censored] game is a joke right now.
How is contact swinging ruining the game? Ichiro is literally a HOF player and a does nothing but "contact" swing
I watched Ichiro for many years and him taking bp. He doesn't hit 450 ft. bombs slapping the ball. His swing is different when he pulls the ball.
@dbarmonstar_psn said in DD gameplay review this year:
Tag animations are terrible. Tag a player out 2 feet from the base but is called safe as well as being safe and getting called out especially at first and home.
I forgot this. Base running AI can be infuriating too.

What a virtue signalling cringe worthy post. I honestly vomited in my mouth…and then out onto the floor…a lot.
I hope you have a great weekend buddy. I have empathy for hard work and if you think you can do better then you should create the new MLB game.

I really like AJ Rodriguez. He's funny, very likeable and an absolute beast at this game.
Wait you mean AJ Littlemann17? If that is the case, he is awesome and he is also a machine at the game hahaha. I sub to his Twitch.
Brandon Woodruff. He can get a boost to his K/9, HR/9 and H/9. He has a 11 K/9, given up 21 hits and 2 HRs in 41 innings. His The Show rating is 68 K/9, 71 HR/9, and 83 H/9. He is still 3.5K stubs.
Nick Castellanos. I don't think he goes diamond this update, but he is putting up good stats where it can be boosted. They can boost his ConR/PowR. He is batting .300 with 6 HRs and 6 doubles against righties. His defense is average at best so it might hold him back.

but the market has priced a lot of the bump in. Let me know what you guys think.
I think if "the market has priced a lot of the bump in", this is by definition NOT early investment ideas.
Did you read the post? That is why I went into details with Nick Castellanos and DeSclafani. I said the others are great candidates for upgrades but the market has priced those in.

Cbrev and Truman are pretty awesome. I really like watching their streams. Cbrev doesn't stream that much outside the first 2-3 months though.

Obviously this is a subjective question, but there are maybe some under the radar content creators that are great. Who do you think has been good/great this year? I like watching Jerz just because it is not a rage stream and he has humor.
Yea I know it is kinda late in the year, but occasionally a RS game is fun. I tried Tatis but I am so awful with him. I play Turner there.

Lol no. My bad. So sick of seeing all these ranting posts about madden
No worries. I just don't get why it's like a flood gate during this time of year for everyone. Play Madden 21 then...FIFA 21...or NHL 21...

I’ll tell you the same thing I tell everyone else that says they are leaving the game. This isn’t an airport. You don’t have to announce your departure.
Why are you telling me this? I am not the one that is announcing it? I am not the Queen of England announcing my departure.

I am going to MADDEN. This game is so trash yet I paid and bought it. I am going to Madden because it is infinitely better. It is perfect. Then comes March probably the same people would say.... I AM GOING TO MLB. Madden is such a cash grab.
People come here and act like they are genius programmers and start attacking employees of a giant corporation. Why don't you say F you Sony? You can build anything with the resources. If you are constructive instead of being like a 5 year old, maybe people will treat you like adults. SDS actually does try to improve their game based on feedback.
Sports has so much RNG in general. It is naturally triggering. Stop attacking programmers and the developers. I am only posting this because idiots are attacking people who try to translate a game that has a ton of RNG to provide a simulation. if it is easy, create your own game or if you criticize... be constructive.

This is such a harsh post for a video game. Telling people to quit "their jobs" because they suck? Do you even have experience doing this job OP? This game is not perfect by any stretch. I get triggered with base running, freeze offs, and most importantly because I suck. Those rare perfect perfects are not always hits, but it was never intended to be hits 100% of the time.
The one area where I think SDS can do better is transparency of calculations and methodology for RNG. Quirks in this game make it so difficult to understand and there are a ton of quirks. Early swings with Trout are like nukes because he excels at hitting fastballs, breaking balls, when his team is down, plays at night , and whatever...Then what is he not good at and how does this affect his stats. This is similar to Trea Turner's all star card. That card is insane. You don't see or know how to make of it when Turner hits better than Chipper.
