Re: MLB The Show 21 Quick Q&A - March to October & Franchise Mode

Very predictable, called it in the franchise thread.. super underwhelming, seriously the same mode we've had for 5 years or more.

I honestly feel franchise was better when we had the newspaper, ability to set ticket prices etc.. The world just felt more alive.

-no rotating interleague schedules
-no non roster invitees
-poor moral system
-the league feels dead, radio wrap up just doesnt work IMO. Lack of social media.. just something!
-AI bullpen logic

Re: MLB The Show 21 Quick Q&A - March to October & Franchise Mode

I mean besides the Q&A, is there something I missed that many of you are jumping off the rails? Not shocking by some of the posts around here, but damn, we haven't even had the premiere where the big things would be talked about. Tap the breaks a little lol.

Why in the world would a Q&A video talk about any mode in detail? All these videos have been small easy to answer questions.

I'll take:
1) rotating schedules - check, yes
2) NRI's - check, yes
3) ON/OFF morale option - check, yes
4) revamped Radio Show, Tony Bruno/Madden-style - check, yes
5) 30 different ways to setup bullpen logic - check, yes
6) newspaper sports section to read - check, yes
7) set ticket prices, rent billboards, set sell hotdogs prices (or popcorn or coke or sushi or Colorado Rockies mountain oysters) and bobblehead give-away - check, yes

but more social media, no thank-you, no way, no how. I hated the Tweeter being introduced into the Show. don't have use for the Bookface, Instagran, Yelp, Utube, Tik-tik or the like I'll allow Telegraph but that's it lol

Re: MLB The Show 21 Quick Q&A - March to October & Franchise Mode

I'm optimistic. Budget, trades, lineups, rotations and call up call downs were huge issues.

If they balanced budgets to reflect real salaries that would be game changing for me.


As always the devil is in the "details." I don't need fluff, give me quality changes and bug fixes that have needed to be addressed in a long time.

Budget fixes will help fix trade logic. Currently teams don't value certain players due to the salary they make being considered way too high.

yeah, to me it would make more sense to start with the premier then follow-up with a quick q&a

3) Completely revamp the draft once rosters are expanded.

4) Build a new progression system that is actually dynamic. Every player practically follows the same exact progression arc. All A potentials progress the same, all B's progress then same with very little variety. You can take 10 players with the same ratings and the same potentials, sim 10 franchises, and those 10 players will practically progress the exact same every single sim. There are no busts, no late bloomers, it's way too generic.

4) This should really be the only thing I wrote. Look at OOTP and literally copy everything they do and then tack your on-field gameplay onto it. Nothing more is needed. OOTP is the pinnacle of franchise modes.

I like everything he has in his so instead of retyping them I figured I'd quote him and then say some of my other ideas I hope to see.

1. Custom draft classes. I highly doubt we'll get them but this is a long over due feature.

2. Rain outs with rescheduled double headers. Again, this one is long over due but isn't as widely requested so I doubt I'll get this one either. Expanded rosters for double headers would be a must as well.

3. Rotating interleague schedule in multiyear franchises. I can't believe this is a request I'm still having to ask for.

4. Team records added to Dynasty. Would be nice to try and beat some team records in addition to the MLB recorders.

5. Expansion teams. I doubt we'll see this one this year. Give it a year but worth adding to the list.

6. Single A teams. Time to actually add in the single A teams.

7. Playoff rosters including a 4 man rotation option.

8. International Free Agents - Would be another fun add.

9. Fine tuned injury logic

10. Better Free agent negotiations.

Re: MLB The Show 21 Quick Q&A - March to October & Franchise Mode

I know this is unpopular on this forum but I’m content with what franchise is as long as they don’t actively remove features versus these massive overhauls in the wishlist thread. The game is so damn good on the field, where it matters most, that I can tolerate what franchise is and isn’t at this point. Just my opinion.

oh, I definitely hated when they started removing things, I want additions to the game.
I don't want to them to play the smoke-&-mirror-replacement/shell game with features
