Tay-riffic, the broken game is making us attack each other.

Look, I'm all for everything working exactly how it's supposed to be but how about the game works fully offline and online first? Then we could fix other problems people have? If we have to choose between correct color socks and the ability to play DD let's all agree that DD wins.

While there are people on either side of the "making games is hard" argument the bottom line is that we're not paying for someone's good intentions. If you want to give money in a charitable way that's fine but once they ask for money in exchange for goods they have something on their end to live up to.

If there are difficult parts of the game that they can't do well leave them out and charge a lower price for the game.

It's frustrating paying a premium for an incomplete title.

Nah man, I wouldn't say we are attacking each other. I respect his opinion/enthusiasm and I didn't mean to attack/insult him. If I did I apologize.

We're just both passionate individuals, and want to have the best game experience possible from a game we love. Funny enough I agree with him. I would love to have inseason extensions. I think it's silly they aren't there.

In terms of internet arguments, it was actually pretty tame, lol.

I wish Bill nothing but the best in everything he does.

$150 and if it's a half finished product, then lower the price. No way I should be paying full price for a game that its entire online content does not work as advertised

so Sony will refund my digital deluxe edition?

Not trying to start something here because you've been around here for quite some time and have a good understanding of how The Show and their dev team works, but why do you keep ponying up the cash and pre-ordering the silver platter version if there's a history (i.e. online franchise which I know you are interested in) that you may be disappointed?

You'd figure that some people paying multiple times the cost of the physical game year after year (to either get it a few days early or to dip into a suite of perks) would change their consumer behavior if they weren't totally satisfied with their purchase, no? At least wait until the game comes out to ascertain if it's 'finished enough' for their liking--that would be rational consumer behavior while avoiding the unneeded outrage. If consumers are willing to give a business $$$ before the game even comes out, that business will gladly keep taking it. SDS is a good group of guys, but they have corporate overlords interested in the bottom line just like the rest of us.

There must be something tangible that keeps these people coming back for re-buys year after year. And I think a "broken," "half-finished," or "lazy" game is therefore not an accurate depiction of the situation. Unless people have really short memories about last year and the year before etc.

Digital deluxe for incentives and stubs towards DD as discussed at length on several streams. Trust me no qualms with not purchasing and/or speaking with my wallet as I have not purchased an EA product since the stunt with NCAA basketball 2010

I would love for them to patch in updated head scans for players who have significant head and or facial hair changes. I know it can be done since they did it last year.

Small thing for some people but it kills the immersion for me. Maikel Franco hasn't had dreads for 3 years in a row now.

in terms of internet discussions, it was enlightning and good stuff provided by both points of view.

I read a good article about this exact thing and it was about Mass Effect Andromeda. Basically saying that in today's gaming industry we as consumers may want to think about stopping to pay for a game upfront and see if the game is up to snuff once it's released. Like you said, if we just keep paying upfront then what incentive do developers have to change the way they make these games.

And this is speaking about Mass Effect more than The Show. Mass Effect has/had serious issues for a game that took five years to develop.

I think we need to be more conscious about what we are paying for as consumers in the gaming industry.

That's what I did this year. I waited to decide whether I would buy MLB 17. I decided to not buy it.. yet anyway.

Don't misunderstand me. I like MLB The Show. I think the developers are skilled and driven, but I also think the game has gotten too big ( complex? ) for their company size at this point too.

There's some glaring issues this year I didn't think I'd ever see in an MLB The Show game.

Sorry guys, I get too worked up over this stuff. While I was trying to be objective and constructive, I was getting on Mav3rek7's case over nothing. He's right, we're both passionate about the game. I don't know anybody here yet, so maybe I'll get used to who's who. Didn't mean to trash anyone.

Like I've said, this is the best baseball game I've ever played. I'm glad I bought it because it's a huge upgrade over '16. Looking forward to the next patch.

Thank you for posting this. Being new here and taking responsibility for some less than constructive posts is appreciated.

I have had my fill of paying for updated shiny sht, as much as I do like this game overall. The change, or recognition that a change was needed, in physics is a good thing but I can't imagine buying again and again for accurate stitch counts on uniform numbers aka the exact stockings a club wears while fundamental aspects of the game of baseball are not tended to. Not angry about it, as I know market considerations factor in to decisions, but I will agree with you, completely. Bravo, this post here, me yours, is the Hall Of Fame post someone claimed upthread.

I saw this on Facebook just now from MLBTS. I don't know how true it is if it really is SDS or someone created a mlbts page, but " We are deploying a patch and performing server maintenance early Tuesday at 3 AM Pacific. Please complete all games prior to then."

But what standard are they being held to when they release a half baked product or a product with several bugs that affect the game across the board?

Well that's where your opinion and mine differ. The game is not a half-baked product I'm fully functioning in franchise mode I'm fully functioning in Road to the show mode. I'm able to play the game now. When It comes to online I know there's a lot of issues but this is nothing new. The servers are always bugged out and have issues the first 4 to 6 weeks of release and that's just something that I've grown accustomed to with this series.

Is it right no of course not but I don't lose sleep over it, for those who play strictly online I feel your pain and would be highly frustrated like you are there is no excuse for it.

But the game for me personally it's far from half-baked I haven't stop playing since release in fact I'm busy playing and enjoying the game on a high-level. While I've been playing the game I've been finding visual bugs and some gameplay issues and have been steadily reporting them to the development team.

And like always by the time they rreleasetheir first big game play patch I expect 99% of the problems to be resolved like they always have been and remember no sports game is ever perfect.

Performance in RTTS is still unacceptable. Constant stuttering and hitching, anytime the camera pans to a dugout on a double play turn the framerate tanks.

Still seeing 90 percent steals in my 2B Fielding oppurtunites....RTTS feels like a mess this year, and the fps makes it just a terrible experience.

A real lack of polish this year.
