I think the game is fantastic with one exception, online franchise. Maybe it will get better but last night was awful. Constantly loading and waiting...there aren't any notifications that tell you if it is processing your request. I hate to say it but Madden's online franchise is ten times better than the MLB the show...and thats a bummer for me and my friends.

They are calculating WAR incorrectly. The game is moving more towards advanced metrics; maybe they should focus more on that next season. Otherwise, fun game as usual. Love Diamond Dynasty.

What's the correct way to calculate WAR? There are only 2 companies that calculate WAR besides SCEA and they each have a different formula for it.

They are using their own WAR calc....so how would you even know it's incorrect!!! :)

The fact is that SCEA is improving the game every year. My dream though is a collaboration with OOTP devs for a superior game, for the ultimate baseball sim. Both on PS4 and PC. But this will never happen unfortunately.
