Community Forum

The forum is ALWAYS full of complaints. I've been on here since 2018, and in that time literally every single version has been the worst thing in the history of gaming according to a majority of the comments. SDS isn't "listening" because they're smart enough to know that no matter how much you complain most of you will continue to buy the game anyway, and they know that even if they were able to fix every single one of your complaints you'll all be right back here in 2027 with a long list of new ones.

I usually try to stay positive about the game and in general I think a lot of the complainers go overboard, but on this one issue I gotta grab my pitchfork and join the angry mob. Bots in the market have gotten ridiculous and I really wish they'd do something about it. Flipping has been a frustrating experience this year.

The Community: This is the worst game ever! I'm never playing again! Also the Community: Waah the game is down and I can't play it!

So now we're not just complaining about current issues, but also preemptively complaining about issues that don't exist yet? This fanbase is so toxic. I swear to god haha

@Onix_Savage22_PSN I've been on the forum since 2018, and it's exactly like this every single year. The only thing that changes is the specific reasons for the outrage.

I find it amusing that the forum is filled with 'i hate this game!' posts and also 'Waah why did the servers go down?' posts. If the game is so terrible then why do you care if its up and running? You all confuse me lol

@Pergo_MLBTS I don't understand the complaints about offline play. I'm an offline player and I usually have plenty of stuff to do. And when I don't, I do something wild and crazy that a lot of players apparently have never considered. I take a break and play a different game for awhile, or maybe just go outside to touch some grass!

It's funny how people always whine when the game doesn't provide enough content to play 40 hours a week like its their full time job, even though it pretty much does if you remember that there's a lot more to the Show than just DD.

Sorry, guys. I jinxed it. I haven't played all day, and the game went down within minutes of me logging in. My bad! Lol

Clearly they will miss your 59.50

It takes more than one person to hold a company accountable for a disappointing product. Fact is if this were the mentality of even 15% of the player base it would go along way toward forcing some sort of accountability amongst all developers , not just SSDS.

You should be congratulating his ambition in the matter not criticizing it.

If 15% of the player base left, it would probably lower the strain on the servers enough for the other 85% of us to have a flawless online experience. I hope this happens! lol

People seem to have a wildly exaggerated idea of "the community's" importance. The regulars on this forum represent maybe one or two percent of the game's fanbase, and even those numbers are probably a little generous. If every single one of you stopped buying the game tomorrow and convinced everyone close to you to do the same, sales of the Show still wouldn't drop enough for SDS to even notice a difference financially. The majority of the people who buy the game are casuals who have absolutely no idea that there was a cheating issue to begin with.

@samguenther1987_PSN Yes, he does show up as red. I got lucky and pulled him last night.

So happy that I finished live series last week and now I no longer have any reason to care what their prices are for the rest of the year.

@PAinPA_PSN Well at least then they'd be reminded that they've said 'the game is terrible and I'm never playing again' every year for the last 8 years, and maybe they'll finally understand why nobody takes them seriously.

If the game is so terrible then why do you care if its down?

You actually can 'play your own way'. The problem is that people misunderstood what they meant. Whether you play offline or offline, there are more than enough obtainable cards to put together a formidable lineup that's capable of handling whatever challenges you throw at it. But did you really expect them to design a game that gives all of its rewards to players who are only willing to engage with some of its content? To my knowledge, no developer in the history of gaming has ever done that.

SDS would also probably get flooded with complaints from players who made a dumb trade and regretted it later.

@SpawnOfDitka_XBL I don't understand why you're still here. If I hated this game as much as you then you'd never know about it because I would have already disappeared from the forum to focus on playing something different that I actually do enjoy. I could address your points in more detail, but it's really not worth the effort. I have better things to do with my time than debate people who can't make an argument without resorting to childish unprovoked personal insults. Consider yourself reported. Good day.

In my experience, the percentages are actually pretty accurate. I'm not good enough to win at the higher difficulty levels, but after six or seven attempts playing on all star with an average chance of 45-50% I came away with three cards.

I think everyone should mentally prepare themselves for the fact that whatever action they end up taking, they probably won't announce it and we'll most likely never know for sure if anyone got banned unless the banned players choose to whine about it online. So a couple weeks from now when this board inevitably fills up with 'Why aren't they doing anything?' posts, I hope the more rational players among us will realize that silence from SDS doesn't necessarily mean that the issue wasn't addressed.

Probably an unpopular opinion around here, but I honestly don't care about the whole glitch "scandal". I don't support cheating and I hope the people who did it receive some sort of punishment, but beyond that why should I get all upset about something that had absolutely zero effect on me? I was actually offline that day and didn't know anything had happened until it was all over anyway.

"But they got all those cards for free and I had to grind for them!" The grind is the fun part for me. If I was able to easily get the best cards right away, I'd be excited for about five minutes but then get bored and completely lose interest in the game.

"But it gave them an unfair advantage online!" I don't play online. Don't care.

"But their teams are better than mine now and I'm jealous!" I barely have enough free time to manage my own lineup. I'm not worried about who other players have.

"But they messed up the market!" And it was back to normal within a few days.

So yeah, I'm not a part of the glitch mob. If they all get banned, that's cool. If they don't, that's cool too. It's just a stupid videogame. Isn't important enough to get all worked up over.
