    Really wanting to enjoy the game But??

    Man I really want to enjoy this game but it is hard to not get frustrated. I only play MOM because I don't want to win because of stick skills. I want the players results and my decisions to matter. The game animations are amazing but 2019 took a step back from 18 in terms of everything else. Here is a run down

    1. 2 Years now and you still have 0 injuries in MOM
    2. 2 Years now and there are still no rain delays, or challenges in MOM


    So this is what we are regulated with. You have to sim to get any injuries at all. Even in my sim games with 6 injury slider I have had through 45 games 1 damn injury and it was in spring training. I mean really? Can we not put a realistic injury simulator in the game? Look at MLB, heck every team has multiple players on IL through 20 plus games. 1 injury and it was minor and I had to sim to get that.

    Why has it fallen on complete deaf ears for 2 years now to acknowledge that there are issues with this mode. Is it really that difficult to implement the same features as any other mode in to MOM?

    Why SDS did you turn off injuries in this mode?
    Why did you turn of Rain Delays and Challenges in this mode?
    Why doesn't the CPU sub in anyone in Spring Training games or the All Star game?

    I am sorry but this is the worse version of the Show in 5 years. I hate to say that but at least in 18 I saw some injuries pre-game MOM and Sim mode. This year nothing

    Oh good another "why I think The Show is (bad, broken, devs dont care, not for me)" thread. We haven't had one of these in like a whole day! Awesome.

      I know where you're coming from, I really do, but there is something to be said if SO MANY people are upset about one thing or another, and rightfully so. The game has issues, many, many issues and with some proper testing and some TLC they could be taken care of (before release), but unfortunately it is quite obvious that the most important thing to the devs of the company is to make sure their online money making scheme is up to par first and foremost instead of putting out a well rounded quality product.

            I enjoy it too, for the game modes i play. But i do feel for those people who play different modes or are having worse experiences than in 18. There are a lot this year. I don't think most are just being picky. I have to agree that that some of the points people make are valid, even if i don't experience it myself. And the lack of either a) attention by SDS to resolve some of the more widespread complaints, or b) transparency from SDS about whether an issue isn't realistically fixable, is striking.

              I am having an issue that has been the same in at least the last 3 years where with men on base and with usually 2 outs a line drive is hit and the damn baserunners dive back to the base. It has cost me runs as the fielders no get the force out. I have not seen any threads on this so I guess I am the only one having this issue. Any ideas on a setting that may fix this?

                this has happened to me. Also my players slide into their base like all the time almost, even when it doesn't make sense. Then they get stuck at 2nd/3rd instead of grabbing and extra base/scoring

                      In a different thread a developer indicated they are working on a patch for the injury bug.

                        Unless these are alt accounts for a very insecure developer team, the way you take criticism of them personally wears on me as much as seeing people start bashing threads does for you. They’re big boys and can handle it. This little cartel of positivity and dismissal is not good.

                        The guy brought up a legitimate concern. He was frustrated, but was, for the most part, clear and concise in his description and didn’t ramble too much. But dismissing actual criticism and problems with this assumption of purity on SDS's part is going to lead to a worse game and environment than the occasional bashing threads will.

                          Sony's a big boy . they can handle the praise as well as they can the critique w/o it going to their collective head . now if only the civilians will put on their big boy pants & shake off any butthurt they feel , all'll be kosher

                            So do the 16 other threads on various topics complaining about the game, but thanks for playing. I appreciate you. I am sure you white knighting everybody gives you so much satisfaction.

                              Did you just accuse him of "white knighting" right after you did the exact same thing?

                              Did you add to the conversation? Did you offer suggestions to help? Lack of empathy isn't something to be proud of.

                              As annoying as threads bashing the game can be, what you do isn't any better. It is actually worse. I am all for humor, but, dismissing people who have legitimate complaints isn't funny. Maybe the OP will get the answer to his issue. Maybe others will agree it is a problem. Maybe they won't.

                              It is also hilarious that you admit there are various topics which means they aren't all the same. Hmmm...seems like a forum is a good place to discuss these various issues......
