I feel this is especially the case with the fielding complaints and things of that nature in this game. People want a "realistic" game, but when they are faced with the realism of not every play being perfectly made they suddenly aren't that interested in realism.

I commend the developers of the show for trying to come up with a game that balances realism, and user skill. It can't be easy to do that, and while this game has flaws the positives far outweigh the negatives.

Count me in as someone who loves this game. I actually prefer the realism and randomness as it better represents the sport. I want my players to play to their abilities, not mine, and this game has been great at doing that.

Great post!! The game is amazing!! From the lighting, to the crowd being dynamic, the competition is tough as it should be, and the stadiums and atmosphere is awesome!! I'm playing on Default Legend and get solid gameplay.. Yeah some games are way worse than others, but hey the season is 162 games long! Every game won't be perfect to the point where I'm like OMG I have to adjust this or that from happening again! ITS A GAME!! Enjoy it and PLAY BALL!! Lol

Ive played the show pretty much everyday since 08. I personally think MLB 12 played the best but 15 is a very close second. Add in all the improvements to the game over that span and its probably the best in the series.

Each year i run about a month of games while modifying and adjusting sliders and 14 is the closest I ever came to what I feel was simulation baseball and now Im right at that point in 15, took a little longer and had to test a few different slider set combinations to get it right but its there now.

All the complaining is for the most part an attempt at constructive criticism but gamers are some of the most privileged, spoiled people online and feel if there is any little flaw its the end of the world.

Yep, definitely the best game of the series.

The ultimate compliment I could give this game is that I no longer play any other games -- and I'm a fan of other sports and sports games as well (NBA 2k, Madden, NHL, FIFA). I simply want to devote all of my limited gaming time to the Show, whether it's during the baseball season or in the off-season. And now I'm saving a little cash, too, because I'm not buying any other games.

Agreed with 14 and now 15 ive basically eliminated gaming from my life other than the show and im actually much happier just playing the one game

Spoiler

I don't know how anyone can play the game in it's present state.

1)Corey Kluber's overall is a 90 when he should obviously be either an 89 or 91.
2)The Blue Jays dugout wall is the wrong shade of white. It's off-white IRL & eggshell white in game.
3)Sometime outfielders drop fly balls, but then there are other times they catch fly balls. What's up with that?
4)I can't set the price for diet coke. Unacceptable.
5)There seems to be some sort of random code where I some times lose a lead I don't feel that I should & other times I come from behind to win after only scoring 2 runs through the first 8 innings, then I suddenly score 2 runs in the 9th. When does that ever happen IRL? And even this Code seems unreliable & broken. I can't always come from behind & I don't always lose my lead. This Code needs patched. And fixed. And pronto.
6)I can;t close the roof at New Yankee Stadium. This is a billion dollar stadium. This should be an easy thing to program with so much money invested into The House A-Rod Built.
7)I can't change cover man Puig's jersey number to 42. Is this a bug, or a glitch?
8)For some reason, Matt Vasgersian accidentally keeps calling Marlins Mike Stanton the wrong name. John Carlo or some such. And to top it off he thinks the Florida Marlins left the state to play in Miami.
9)And the worst offense? I only payed $65 dollars to purchase the Show when it's easily worth over a hundred dollars. I laughed all the way to the bank on that deal.

TLDR version:
You don't get sarcasm? Is that you, Sheldon?

I am the same way. The only other sport game I have bought lately is Project Cars. But I am not sure that counts and it certainly does not keep me away from The Show.
