So how bout that weather today?

@JestersDead13 dude y’all gotta be realistic haha seriously come on y’all. Sometimes these situations are incidental. I want a working product like everyone else but it’s unrealistic to expect a flawless product without any possible issues.

@joshuadelawrence dude… if you think anything in the world is gonna work flawlessly all the time then I got some bad news for you

@JDHalfrack remember when PSN was down for like 3 weeks back in 2011? I feel like we’d be in a purge

@MoneyManMike55 2K is rough every year and I somehow still convince myself to buy it… I don’t understand it lol

@MoneyManMike55 unfortunately yes lol pray and hope

@joshuadelawrence dude… I get that. If they don’t even have MLBTS accounts then that’s a whole different thing. Again, if you unlink and your stuff isn’t right, then they’re still troubleshooting is all I’m saying dude. Unless they just put something out the only thing we were told was to try to unlink on the website and re-link if you see the correct stubs and level. If you don’t see the correct stubs and level… do you wanna try re-linking it? That sounds sketchy to me

@joshuadelawrence yes someone did say that like an hour ago, but they could have said something while I was typing that. That’s why I said something along the lines of “wait for official fixes”. That Victor dude only suggest unlinking… which for most of us seems to not fix the issue.

@MoneyManMike55 I know it’s annoying dude but hardware requires occasional troubleshooting… I’m annoyed as anyone else but we can only assume they’ll fix it soon.

Everyone… I’m sure this is common knowledge to a decent amount of people on here, but for those who don’t what happens in situations like this here is my shot at making it make sense and to help y’all avoid additional frustration. I’m studying cybersecurity so feel free to correct me if I’m wrong but here’s my advice:

1. I can only assume SDS is rightfully so getting an absolute ton of reports right now… don’t expect a quick response… be realistic.

2. Nothing official has been said yet other than acknowledging the issue… this is standard incident response, they won’t have an answer for a little bit and a fix of some kind should probably be coming soon.

3. Since it’s a server issue, there should be some kind of backup in place that will make sure nobody loses their progress, these companies make way too much money to not configure auto backups to maintain the stability, safety, and efficiency of their hardware

4. If you unlinked your account, don’t risk losing your data, wait to hear something official and then do what they say will fix it. I unlinked but once I saw it didn’t match I didn’t re-link it. LEAVE IT ALONE. Don’t do anything without an official response or fix from SDS.

5. Most likely it’s a server related to Identity and Access because it unlinked certain accounts, most of which I’ve seen is related to people who pre-ordered the game.

6. For the people in the back… LEAVE YOUR ACCOUNT ALONE and just wait.

Like can we just have this game every year without all the issues? This is wild y’all… been playing this game since MLB The Show 10… I just wanna get my stuff back so I can go play some real 99 glitchers in co-op

The servers are obviously bugged. I didn’t relink my account since it showed 0 progress. I bet they’ll update it and it’ll be fine. I mean I was playing for like 3-4 hours after I got out of class and this all happened while I was in stadium creator. So I had no idea what was going on

I was around 540k XP. And when I unlinked my account as suggested my regular account shows me at level 1 with 0 Stubs? I was just playing Mini Seasons earlier and last I saw was at 7500 stubs. I have 155 hrs… yikes… y’all gotta fix this.
