No Season Mode?

[My993C2]

No Season Mode? Are they serious? I had a Season saved file from MLB 17 that I was getting into but it cannot be transferred into MLB 18 because Season Mode files are not compatible with Franchise Mode. It would have been nice if they were honest and told us ahead of time that the mode was being dropped. What else was dropped ... besides Season Mode and Online Franchise.

Ugh. I only play season mode.

Re: No Season Mode?

This is awful. I usually enjoy playing a 29 game season.

Even more maddening is they dont give us the option to edit the number of innings.

What's the difference between Season Mode and Franchise? I never understood that.

Nope. It's not there. I'm carrying a season file from 2016 and now it's done, unless I continue it in '17. Lot of time and effort put into my season mode and I never stopped to think they'd take it out.

No warning??? Perhaps they mentioned this somewhere, but I didn't see it. Wasted money, cause I wouldn't have bought if I knew.

Utterly ridiculous...promote the continuation of saved files from previous years and then take it away....and I rarely ever open my mouth to complain about this game but this is unacceptable.

Thumbs down, SCEA...perhaps you made a great game this year but to do this under the radar...awful!

Season mode at least gives you the option to edit the amount of games you want to play. In franchise mode you are locked into 162 games. Ive always viewed franchise mode as more of a GM mode. Since there is more simming involved.

In season mode I usually like to just edit the amount of games played down to 29 games. Thats much more manageable.

Re: No Season Mode?

Yeah this also screws up my custom rosters thing I had going, can't do a shorten season now...

Re: No Season Mode?

Is it a dumb question to ask how we might get a refund on the digital copy? Is it even possible?

Re: No Season Mode?

Can we control all 30 teams in franchise? How did they not tell us this?

In the past, you've always been able to do 30 team control in franchise. I assume you still can this year, but I haven't checked.

Re: No Season Mode?

If so I can still do my full season, will just take a lot more work/simming of owner-type stuff I care nothing about. Doable, but VERY disappointing.

my god SDS are becoming EA more and more every year and it is frighting me

Re: No Season Mode?

This will be the first time in a number of years that I do not buy the game. Fortunately, I’m addicted to Gran Turismo sport. And, as a break I’ll play some 2K

I’ve supported this franchise for so long but I’m disappointed they did not disclose that they have removed the season mode

Re: No Season Mode?

That they removed this mode (if they did...I don't have the game so I am trusting what these people are saying), that's pretty awful. But, that they removed it without telling you guys before you bought the game is shady as all hell.

Re: No Season Mode?

I honestly could not care less about Diamond Dynasty or RTTS. Literally all I do is season mode, play now, and online matchups. I wish I could be refunded, because it looks like I'm going to be playing 17 for a long time.
