MLB The Show 22 - The 5 Things We Need

[CujoMatty]

1. No surprise me saying SOTS.
2. Way more team branding options in stadium creator. All ballparks have excessive signage and especially team specific branding. Playing a game with a  custom stadium should feel the same as playing in a real one. 
3. Y2Y saves and it desperately needs to steal from nba 2ks DNA system. I would only play multiple years if I have the ability to import the cyberfaces at some point with a DNA type feature.

My Top Five

1. Sounds of the Show: Yes, I know this is somewhat out of SDS' control because Xbox doesn't currently enable mp3 importing, but I'd like to think some developer lobbying could get Microsoft to enable it via a firmware update. I'm no tech expert, but I doubt enabling mp3 imports via USB would be a tall order (assuming there was some desire/impulse to do it, that is).

2. Year-to-Year Saves: Not as high of a priority for me as SOTS (which I know puts me in the minority on OS), but I do want it to return sooner rather than later.

3. Presentation Improvements: Please go back to having three different broadcast graphics packages! And have them mimic some of the current RSNs/national broadcasts (AT&T SportsNet, Bally Sports, ESPN, FOX, NBC Sports). Also, please let us use the retro broadcast packages from Moments in Play Now and Franchise! On the commentary side, I'd love for them to cut DeRosa loose. He's easily been the weakest link since he was added. Honestly, a two-man booth of Matty V and Plesac sounds good to me.

4. The Franchise Setup Options From MyNBA: Being able to edit the number of teams in the league, re-align teams, and edit league rules from the initial Franchise setup screen.

5. Playable High-A Teams: I don't return to MVP Baseball 2005 very often these days, but I do enjoy getting my fix of virtual California League baseball every now and then. Playable high-A teams and accompanying Franchise/draft changes are long overdue.

The only thing I need is the animation where the catcher throws back the ball to the pitcher just like it was a few yrs back, they keep deleting stuff to make the games shorter. I'll trade all the useless Heidi Whitey animations just for that.

Re: MLB The Show 22 - The 5 Things We Need

1. Expanded rosters with playable A-ball

2. LET US EDIT HOT/COLD ZONES (crazy this isn't a feature yet... Would add so much depth)

3. Import/Export SCEA players

4. Balanced draft classes (waaaay too many 70+ OVR teens)

5. Sounds of the Show to PS5/XB1

PC. My only need. Offline mode on PC.

No ear flaps. Requested this for many moons. Nothing I wonder why?
Option of shorter seasons. After I complete Creating 400 players it's almost football season I never get to play the playoffs or the World Series.

If Y2Y Isn't offered I don't understand why there isn't an option to carry over the rosters at the very least.

This likely comes down to an MLB aesthetic thing about safety equipment. Helmets and eventually flaps were added for safety and they don't want to promote baseball as an unsafe game. It all falls into what the MLB allows to be in the game.

ROTATING INTERLEAGUE SCHEDULES!  

Seriously, enough already.  This should be super easy.  It's especially annoying playing RTTS and not having teams that you never play.

I have zero clue how easy it is to implement. My guess is that its not easy. But man I wish it was in there.

Did they not say one year that it would take them an entire year to implement a rotating schedule?

Re: MLB The Show 22 - The 5 Things We Need

At the bare minimum, couldn't they just recycle real-life schedules from previous years? So, your second year of Franchise would use a schedule from 2013, third year would use 2014, so on and so forth.

That honestly doesn't make sense to me. Couldn't they just make 3 schedules and rotate them? Sure it's not a perfect solution but it would be a lot better than what we have now.

That's an excuse they throw out pretty often about a whole bunch of things. Then again, they only have one person, working part time, on franchise, so I guess it could take a "whole year" of franchise development to get any of these things working, as that realistically isn't actually very much
