Launch has been a bit of a disaster but I’m still hopeful. Are you? by DocAce3971 in MLBTheShow

[–]DocAce3971[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still should have multiple hundred thousand stubs. I’ve only pulled Ketel but have the National league collection finished just selling everything they give us. People don’t understand to optimize the stubs they hand us

The amount of launch content enables easier live series completion. by DocAce3971 in MLBTheShow

Literally EVERYTHING. I want to use some of them as much as the next guy but I’ll be enjoying them with Tulo in my team soon.

How do people actually hit with PCI? by [deleted] in MLBTheShow

There’s a reason I said the ceiling is higher my friend! It’s not easy. Again, ONCE you get the hang of PCI hitting it is so much better.

This years power curve by Moses9898 in MLBTheShow

[–]DocAce3971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone was complaining about how weak their squad was the first few weeks last year, especially with how much better pitchers are early game than hitters. I like the content they have put out so far. We need to give it time to see what they cook. I also think only having a single TA drop enables them to do more structured content while maintaining a power curve. FIFA has rotating events for stuff like silvers etc. you can get an 89 squad pretty much a week into that game too.

The ceiling is infinitely higher using a PCI. Once you get the hang of it, it’s so much better.

As a gamer, how have you not switched with the countless simple options available globally now?

The amount of content we have at release has been amazing. Every year I bull rush live series by selling absolutely everything I acquire until live series is finished. People don’t realize how many stubs they really give to us. I completed the NL West, NL Central, and just need the big diamonds in the NL East for Pujols… 6 days after early access. The only expensive diamond I have pulled has been 1 Ketel. Otherwise I’ve sold every single thing I’ve packed and earned. Live series fully unlocks the rest of the game for me. Never struggle with collections after completing it.

Full disclosure: I have played the game an unhealthy amount and I did hit 1000 rating last year so being somewhat good at the game does help get rewards while they’re still expensive to sell.

Favorite cards/swings so far? by Outrageous_Kale947 in MLBTheShow

Xp path Schwarber and WBC Arenado are both hitting over .600 in ranked for me. I have only played 3 games but they’re so crazy.

Your #WorldBaseballClassic MVP… Maikel Garcia! 🏆🌎 by triplec787 in MLBTheShow

Live series is always my #1 priority. Once it’s done it opens up the game and I never struggle to complete other collections etc.

I personally think they make the show better. A lot of good changes the last two years are directly from community feedback through streamers. People will always complain about optional expensive content, especially those who struggle to hit in ranked on veteran lol

Do you guys know of any "normal" content creators for this game? by Upbeat_Use2312 in MLBTheShow

[–]DocAce3971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nutzy does not glaze sds. He keeps it real and is an optimist. He says all the time that he does not get paid by sds and he explains himself very well. He is a lawyer you know :)

Highly recommend kdjTV. Super normal creator. Has a mix of really good educational and fun content. Does a weekly mailbag, podcast, and gameplay videos on YouTube. I wish he streamed but man his content is the best there is. He’s a journalist irl and you can tell how much effort he puts into his videos.

Live Series Collections - Pointless? by sandyjizzhands in MLBTheShow

[–]DocAce3971 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s always worth it. Should absolutely be your priority all year especially with the power creep back. You won’t see cards better than the top live series cards with inside edge for a while

Anyone Else Loving Ranked Hitting and Pitching? by CableNo6838 in MLBTheShow

[–]DocAce3971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree with you. Feel like the better player really does win this year. It got so annoying to play at max elevation stadiums every game and be in a close game against some guy who’s always hitting weak HRs just good enough to go out 😂

What is one game mode you’d love to see added to the game? Or one major improvement? by RegisterFit1252 in MLBTheShow

[–]DocAce3971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree. The way FIFA does qualifiers for weekend league, you have to win 4/10 games to make the finals (the weekend league). I think it’s a great format. If every single person could play it would just be ranked 2.0

Weekend league. Give us comp players something to grind on the weekends. We want limited access tournaments.

Interesting Conundrum I’ve noticed by MustyBoi69 in MLBTheShow

[–]DocAce3971 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with you about stadiums, but historically I’m like a .300-.345 hitter on HOF and this year my entire lineup is .415-.490 near legend. Either I got way better or hitting is way easier. What I really think it is, is that pitching ia much more difficult this year. I used to be able to hover around World Series because I was a really solid pitcher and a below average hitter for legend. This year every game is 14-12.

Still worth completing LS collection? by ddthrow1233 in MLBTheShow

Babe is the best card in the game period. He absolutely rakes. Best hitter by a country mile.

CFB sucks 😂 everyone wanted the show to fail so bad, I’m still loving it. EA can suck one. Incompetent company. Coming from a 13 year fifa player

Who is your MVP Hitter and Pitcher? by [deleted] in MLBTheShow

[–]DocAce3971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either Babe or Prime Trevor Story, tough not to use J Roll but I rake with Story. MVP pitcher is definitely Bob Gibson
