Stiff

I hate being negative because that’s not who I am as a creator, but I need to rant for a second about the current state of MLB The Show I truthfully believe MLB The Show 26 has a chance to be one of the worst games in franchise history if things are not changed - No new online game modes - Same game modes without change for YEARS, ranked/events/BR are completely stale - Lack of quality rewards for online play, no true reason to get good at the game for top tier rewads - Best way to earn is constant mini seasons on ROOKIE, awesome for NMS/casual players, but shouldn’t be the best way to earn - “PCI Shrinkage taken out of the game when hitting”, not true at all - Josh Hader glitched for two years, no fix - Dread lag still an issue for YEARS - Bots have taken over ranked with no fix - Cheaters ruin gaming experience for online players of all levels, manipulating scores/cheating system plays the game for them - Perfect umpires online are indeed NOT perfect - P2P connection PUNISHES the person with better internet - Disconnects/people getting booted from games for no reason - Investing in cards completely nuked - UI/Menu Screens slower than ever - STILL can’t see ranked record of yourself or opponents - Servers feel rough every other day I’m sure I’ve missed some things, but these issues affect people on a daily basis playing this game I’m also not the one to play any RTTS or Franchise so I really can’t speak on the state of those game modes I think the content of this game has been solid, but when there are so many other glaring issues the game has, it doesn’t matter I truly want MLB The Show to be the best sports gaming franchise of them all, not just as a creator, but as a baseball fan and someone who genuinely enjoys playing the game I don’t know what it will take for MLB The Show to take the necessary steps to become better, but I hope that time is sooner rather than later
