MLB 14 The Show Blog - Diamond Dynasty Extra Innings

I only play franchise. Just waiting for more PS4 screens and some PS4 footage.

Not my cup of tea, waiting for the more interesting ones like RTTS and presentation.

I'm not trying to be negative, just to be negative but hopefully the reponses so far in this thread will show that they'll need to make some changes in this mode to garner more interest. I realize it's a small sample size and there are those who enjoy it and find things like "bonus rewards" fun, but I think the way it is now is just too restrictive to invest a lot of time in. I'm sure there are those who disagree and that's fine. But for me no thank you.

What do you find restrictive about the mode?

Any ideas to make it better? Russell_SCEA posts a suggestion thread every year for Diamond Dynasty in that forum.

I'm really excited for this, although I already like Diamond Dynasty.

1. Not being able to import logos
2. Not being able to edit attributes
3. Not being able to create a league of however many teams I choose and then be able to play one of those teams against another in an offline setting
4. No player lock feature for DD

Those are just a few. Nitpicking? Maybe.

Look, I completely understand that the mode was not designed for these features. I get the fact that editing attributes isn't possible for online games because people would have all their players rated 99. If I were to use it it would be offline games so it's different for me

Like many others I would love to see a create a team where we can do the things I mentioned. To me DD is a Create a Team but not really. It serves the purpose it was designed for and that's fine. I just wish it was designed differently.

Can you imagine the Pandora's Box this would open?!

What you want is a create a team/league or expansion mode. DD is not meant to be that. It's more of an Ultimate Team mode. They are working towards it tho, and I've personally suggestions to further improve the mode. If you look at the big picture, this really is a jump in the right direction for this mode which is only on its third iteration. I could here the outcry now if the community thought they spent too many resources improving this mode.

True, lol. We've talk about a possible solution that I hope will eventually be implemented, sooner than later. I think the logo creation tool is more than sufficient (without needing import) in the hands of the right people. ;-)
