Hold RB (or R1 if Playstation), toggle with the left stick to the bottom right option on the wheel and keep the left stick held. Then use the right stick to cycle through. Then hit A/X on field and the options will be in there.

There it is

Looks like Bermuda grass with no pattern still uses the least memory and frees up a little extra space for props compared to the default grass texture

Decided to bite the bullet and bought the 3 Mets diamonds. I'll puke if they do move Diaz to the free agent pool anytime soon but there's going to be something value wise that hits the fan so might as well get it out of the way.

Also finished the Rockies, Giants and Reds. That leaves Arenado, Goldschmidt and Mookie as the only diamonds I need to complete the NL. Once I have that done, I'm moving my attention towards the Set 1 collection and will start trying to get some value buys there as well as grinding where I can.

I've only played Mini Seasons the last couple days to take advantage of the supercharged players. I'm most of the way through the regular season and 2 2 wins away from the 3rd booster pack. Not sure how many wins I'll go to before quitting out but getting closer. Won't have the run finished before the supercharges go away so will have to readjust the roster. Hoping Olson gets supercharged after his 2 HR game but have been enjoying having Vaughn/Grossman to break up the lefties.

Ms is such a grind of you're trying to complete all the team affinity missions with it. So many of the set 1 collection are in team affinity so it's pretty much a must but it's a grind and a half and I'm not even that close to jazz yet it seems and I finished a ms run yesterday.

Super charged d'arnaud has been super good for me too in ms but I've been doing it on veteran to get thru quicker

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

Finished all ta conquest and showdowns so jumped into ranked and got two quick quits

Pitched satchel Paige and Yamamoto but all my other SP sucks at this point so I think I'll let that be for a while

*edit* I bought darvish and won another quick one 11-1...darvish can dot pretty well but I'm gonna sell him back for now

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

i finished the USA map and from a gold pack i pulled Mookie sold him for 140K and was able to buy Arenado and Goldy to Finish the Cards and get that Musial so i have all the Central done other than Burnes from Mil and like 7 cards from the Reds becasue there price is so crazy right now . i think im going to Grind Mini Seasons for Team Affinity for a while or finish the other 2 division conquest maps out .. i think im up to the 1st boss reward pack on the XP ad had to take Murakami he just looks too good , ill probably go Gibson next for the Cards theme and then Devin Williams will be my last pic i think .

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

Don't ask me why, but after a couple Mini Seasons games I bought a 20 pack.

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

My first time fooling with ranked and its now setup like br so seems like it's fairly easy to get the world series rewards now just by playing and accumulating stats.

I do like this year that I feel I have time to participate in every part of DD without feeling like I won't get behind.

I've pulled 1 diamond from a about 200 standard packs and 3 diamonds from about 20 BIH packs. Standard packs are brutal.

I've knocked out the Storylines and WBC program. Did all the moments for the TA programs so I could have a full team of henchmen. Just been doing the TA conquests and knocking out the henchmen missions. Have not ventured online yet, will probably wait until they fix pinpoint before I do.

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

I’m not having great pack luck, but it seems my live series collection is being fueled by the communities love for Rob Dibble. So better than nothing, I’m down to the last five teams though, and really have the expensive ones left. I’m just going to keep plugging away and I guess now need to really start saving.

I finally started in on the ranked program, and while I really like the program I’m glad I’ve made it through the first part to get above 400. I’m not great by any means, but I really hate playing those games against people that are obviously new. The last game I played was pretty fun though, I think the only one that went a full nine. It was a 0-0 game in the fifth, and ended up being 9-8. Definitely can’t push your pitchers too hard and I definitely don’t have a lot of bullpen arms I trust right now. Pitching has carried me since I started with DD, so feels different to have high scoring games.

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

Only 4 cards away from 99 jazz, would've had him by now if I hadn't sold rewards... But I wouldn't have Sammy if I did... So would rather have Sammy. Was bad with jazz two years ago that early year card that everyone liked so not too excited about this one.

After the 4 ranked games I'm still not that comfortable with my team build and same problem as guy above with the terrible pen.



Pederson, trout, and mcneil are prob my best hitters but pederson can't scoop anything at first so I'd like to get him in the dh slot eventually.

My bench is also weird since we have no pitcher. I have Stan bc of the 125 clutch on top of already good hitting stats and quirks. Hank Aaron I don't love that card but it's versatile. Dihigo I'm not sure if I should start or keep on bench for versatility and goldy is for the bat against lhp plus also had good quirks and would upgrade defense over pederson late if needed.

I def value defense much higher than I feel like my team build represents. The of is good and Sammy is ridiculous fast with amazing jumps and animation... He makes up for trouts mediocre reaction in cf. Mullins plays great defense and hits above his attributes

I may look into the Sanford boost if I can make it work but not sure if I would want to roster 7.... I think I should have Jeter within 2-3 weeks... Pretty sure Jeter and Sosa won't leave my lineup all year long

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

Different subject.... Hadn't started the nation's map, just finished wbc map today for xp and team affinity progress. I noticed all these all star cards and whatever else, posada, kiner, etc. They are all core cards but not really very good ones. I'm assuming they haven't finished anything about them being part of a collection?

Not sure whether it makes more sense to start the nation's map or a 2nd mini seasons run. I'll work on one of those until the new event drops on Friday more than likely but not sure the better choice. Either way will be running team affinity captains/henchmen

They haven't said anything about set collections. I'd be absolutely shocked if they didn't do them so I would expect to see them.

The USA map is absolutely worth it for the cards toward the collection and all the packs, xp and pxp. It'll take 11-14 hours but absolutely worth it and getting the grind out of the way early always seems the best route to me. If they drop some amazing collection card and you NEED the map cards, it'll feel way worse grinding it then.

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

First grind post of the new year!

Season 1 Reward Path Done (have had like 6 wheel spins, which resulted in some solid pulls for stubs)
US Map Done (easiest map ever, played two games Rockies/M's, and filled map in before playing anymore. took just an hour and forty five mins to fill in.)
All Conquest Maps Done
Team Affinity - NL East Done, all others at 90%
All Moments Done
WBC Program Done
All Showdowns Done
Event Program Done
Ranked Co-Op Program Done (went 11-14 during the inning grind for all of this, took Gagne)
Live Collections - Just need both the Angels, both Cardinals, and Mookie. We getting there!

This has been so laid back and fun. Legit as they said, just play the game. Co-Op Ranked has been awesome to play with my buds and grind innings. Some tweaks to this would be nice for player pep etc, but I'll take the free World Series Pack and cards along the way.

The way they have the ranked program is so much better this year. I’ve played I think around 10 games and I’m already at 70 points in the program.

Re: What Are You Working On? - MLB The Show 23 Edition

Anyone make it through an entire Mini Seasons run yet?

I'm in the playoffs for the Lefty Loosey and a little sketched out. All the goals and photos are showing the blank Orioles card that happens with server issues. I just won the first game, yet the next game screen shows a big red LOSS and no stats for either team.

Patrick Sandoval and Alex Vesia are showing massively reduced stamina despite me not using them in the first game. I closed app and reopened and none of this change, but just went back into the next game function to play again and Vesia fully regenerated but Sandoval is still showing reduced stamina and hasn't even been used.

Meanwhile, Snell and Alvarado are fully charged despite pitching the first game.

The bracket shows accurate records with me at 1-0 but I almost feel like I'm walking into a bug or something that's going to make this entire run worthless.

I had this problem too, and the first series was weird. It kept showing loss at the top, no stamina changed at all through series, but things worked fine for championship series and finished without problems. Hopefully just a display glitch.
