Some good ideas on here guys. But I don't think it'll be an online type feature, giving the problems that we've seen with online. With this mode being 4 years in the works and never before done, its seems like a huge risk to make it an online mode. It may have an online option but i see it as being some sort of offline mode maybe integrated into the multiplayer aspect...

Re: Diamond Dynasty speculation
Actually very possible. I just found this as a product feature:
"Virtual trading card fantasy mode w/DLC, build your team and play against others,
earn coins to purchase card packs, or purchase through PSN"

Perhaps this is just one of yet to be disclosed modes, and the Diamond Dynasty remains a mystery...Comment

Re: Diamond Dynasty speculation
If it is a card game (and a fantasy one at that), an OS league would be exactly what we need!
Only problem is, we'd have to have a league with no buying card packs through PSN. Maybe we could have two separate leagues, but I'm not going to join a league with PSN pack purchases lol.
But what is Madden Ultimate Team? Is that not a fantasy card game as well? I'm actually not sure, because I haven't ever seen it. Is it maybe more like MLB Showdown?Samsung PN60F8500 PDP / Anthem MRX 720 / Klipsch RC-62 II / Klipsch RF-82 II (x2) / Insignia NS-B2111 (x2) / SVS PC13-Ultra / SVS SB-2000 / Sony MDR-7506 Professional / Audio-Technica ATH-R70x / Sony PS3 & PS4 / DirecTV HR44-500 / DarbeeVision DVP-5000 / Panamax M5400-PM / Elgato HD60Comment

Re: Diamond Dynasty speculation
Well, Ramone did say it has been in the works for 4 years now...which means that it must be a pretty damn big deal...
I hope it's not an online thing, because my experience with online with this game has been nothing but frustrating.
On that note, I think "Dynasty" could mean we start off with a team, we select their location, mascot, and of course coaches and players. Maybe, they made some more stadiums like how they had all those "spring training complexes", but made a few big league parks, and we can choose from one and then from there, build our team and go after the goal of building a dynasty. But then again, it's call DIAMOND Dynasty, so I don't know, it could be just a little arcade thing where it was like on MVP where you had the two pitchers match up against eachother on the mound.
Who knows!Comment

Re: Diamond Dynasty speculation
He only said they were giving out the name. I'm sure when they start doing their Developer Diaries is when we're going to learn everything about it.Samsung PN60F8500 PDP / Anthem MRX 720 / Klipsch RC-62 II / Klipsch RF-82 II (x2) / Insignia NS-B2111 (x2) / SVS PC13-Ultra / SVS SB-2000 / Sony MDR-7506 Professional / Audio-Technica ATH-R70x / Sony PS3 & PS4 / DirecTV HR44-500 / DarbeeVision DVP-5000 / Panamax M5400-PM / Elgato HD60Comment

Re: Diamond Dynasty speculation
"It's really competitive, extremely intuitive, and it's a different way to play a baseball game. We can't wait to talk more about it," Russell concluded.
"Extremely intuitive" ... well ... I guess I'm not feeling intuitive.
"Different way to play a baseball game" confirms new gameplay mechanics.
That and the name seems to be all we know.

Re: Diamond Dynasty speculation
Maybe it'll be like The Sims, where you're an owner and just build an entire new baseball empire/dynasty in a city lol. Sure your team has records and stat breakdowns, but this is about Moneyball bitches!Samsung PN60F8500 PDP / Anthem MRX 720 / Klipsch RC-62 II / Klipsch RF-82 II (x2) / Insignia NS-B2111 (x2) / SVS PC13-Ultra / SVS SB-2000 / Sony MDR-7506 Professional / Audio-Technica ATH-R70x / Sony PS3 & PS4 / DirecTV HR44-500 / DarbeeVision DVP-5000 / Panamax M5400-PM / Elgato HD60Comment

Re: Diamond Dynasty speculation
Maybe its a game-play mode where you fast forward to history turning points in chosen franchise. It doesn't even have to be based on real life events.
Example
Opening scene/playing opportunity: You are star player on a team making a run for the playoffs. They set a goal and you are to lead your team to the playoffs
Cut and next scene is you are the ace of the team that makes it to the playoffs and you get 2 trys as the starter to win and get into the next round.
Next maybe youre the closer in a deciding game 6. You close it out you go to the world series/lose you go to game 7
Basically its a mode where you get put into franchise altering pressure situations and it takes elements of the franchise and just puts you in key spots.
Maybe there's an option to choose position player/Pitcher/Closer at these specific turning points and your goals and rewards are based on that
You can play multiple seasons in a short period, effect the team as a dynasty, and still enjoy the drama of baseball.
Just an ideaComment
