40 Games is a lot when you remember that "seasons" last 5 games so to speak. Also you only get real MLB players for 10 games nothing more. 4-1 ratio isn't bad when you look at the cost vs. benefit analysis of dynasty players and real players.

When you put it like that it makes more sense actually, by having such short seasons we still essentially get 6-8 "seasons" out of 1 guy. Thanks.

Re: IGN Diamond Dynasty Trailer

What I seemed to take away from the trailer is that we can purchase stuff from the PSN store.

Is that the only way, or is it similar to RTTS, where we can buy those things, but we can also obtain them by playing the game?

You can buy card packs that's it. But these card packs are a complete roll of the dice you can't buy a platinum pack with 6 99 rated players. They are all random.

Not sure if anyone has noticed this yet but, has the game switched to a Numbers-Based ranking system? (See the top right of each card)

I did see that. I am assuming it is just for Diamond Dynasty. They still have the bars everywhere else. Unless, they have the bars AND the numbers for Franchise mode and what not. I would be very surprised if the number rankings were anywhere else besides in DD though.

Re: IGN Diamond Dynasty Trailer

Do we know which stadiums we can use as our home stadium is it minor leagues or spring training or only MLB stadiums?
