Re: Expansion Team Mode in MLB The Show?

Those who like DD might enjoy being able to create a new team name, logo, stadium, and to fill a clean-slate roster with players of their choice. With that said, the Franchise-style players get the challenge of managing an actual team's roster in a full-season / franchise setting that comes with all of the nuances and details of a franchise mode.



I think back to playing All-Star Baseball 2003 and its Expansion Mode, and that was the most fun I've ever had (as a 40+ year old fan) playing a video game baseball fan. -- In my mind, this game mode would hook players and keep them playing the game longer, and you could bring in features from RTTS and DD to build your expansion team franchise and see them progress from season to season.



Is anyone at SDS even talking about or thinking about Expansion Team mode?
You can already create a team and insert it into franchise I believe. You basically have to take out one of the teams and replace it with the one you want in there. I've never tried it so I don't know how well it works.
