    they need 30-40 mid tier legends guys like rafeal furcal, melky cabera, scott brosius, javy lopez. Guys who can have some fun cards but shouldn't cost a lot.

    It's funny that you put this video out because over the weekend I decided to go back to MLB the Show 21 and go thru the entire player base and take note of which legends/Star players are no longer in the game as of this year. I ended up with 80+ players. I'll put a small list below of some of the popular ones that are gone.

      ​@@mysunsburneraccount2076pretty sure image rights are signed when sign pro contract. Cards video games etc why you see ex pros in games and cards so it's not case by case basis with legends. It's who has signed those rights no obviously some didn't back in day and maybe even video games and other media not to late 90/early 2000 but once you agree to them they are to be used by the NFL NBA MLB for use when they see fit to do. If everything was on an individual performance for trading cards/games/archive footage etc would be a complete clusterfook for every organisation and products. So is my understanding it's the creator ie Topps 2K EA get told to use & or have complete freedom to choose whoever is in this pool of past players for whatever product it is that they make.

    I have said this before, 3 chapters a season is too much, two halves like the baseball season would be a start - first half/second half. I was fine a few years ago when they dropped TA from the game. They could do that and make the XP path more important and in that path we would grind out cards.

    It really puts into perspective the wealth of baseball history being left on the table by MLBTS when you play a game like OOTP, which has not just the best of the best, but the “Oh I remember that guy!”-type players that immerse you in that game better. Idk what the legal solution is, I understand not wanting to hash out hundreds of separate NIL negotiations with ex players. Whether it’s some form of collective though or what, probably the players AND MLBTS have to be more proactive about getting more names in.

    Yeah they do. I just have no desire to go through the sludge of TA all over again. People are saying they’ve made it easier …
    I don’t see it. I thought it was cool when they gave you tons of XP playing through the Conquest maps and there were multiple conquests for East, West , Central.
    I basically finished TA doing the maps. No exchanges, I did all the division extreme moments but didn’t do the extreme Showdown on that one.
    Idk, I’m just kinda bored with the game. I had a feeling the drop after the all star break would feel anti-climactic no matter what. Idk, I’m sure I’ll bang it out before Season 3🤷🏻‍♂️

  • @cappyAtlUga
    @cappyAtlUga หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thx for another great video. I think a key point here is how can they make more cards playable by the meta. Contact hitters don’t usually fit meta because they don’t hit it 450. Defensive only players have no use. Sinker, cutter, outlier, etc. You say you don’t want realism but how do you make legends of different eras who don’t fit meta viable. Gameplay needs to change. Bigger stadiums, bigger infields, make defense matter. Second, fix so sinker/cutter and outlier don’t matter as much. Finally, no one is going to like this but for SDS to generate the most revenue the need to put best meta cards behind packs and collections. New game modes for different eras would be really cool for those that don’t enjoy the swing/ miss/hr throw 100 mph era.

  • @mattyzero666

    The one thing thats good about nhl UT is depth of legends/alumni. While we all would love more top end guys, there has to be at least 10 Hall of Very Good type players per team sds should be able to reasonably obtain. Using say the Mets as an example, you could have Gooden, Stawberry,Kevin Mitchell, Aguilera, Mookie, Cone, HoJo, Kingman, Staub etc
    Doesn't make sense why they couldn't do this for all 30 teams.

  • @thomasflowers1430
    @thomasflowers1430 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I disagree, I think more pitches up to maybe a ball width off the plate or if at least a sliver of the ball is on the plate should be in play to occasionally be called strikes. I'm a WS player but I still run into sweats who don't swing if a pitch is a millimeter off the plate and anything inside the zone gets hammered and it makes pitching very bland imo and actually makes you have to protect with 2 strikes

    I have always envisioned MLB as being the ultimate "remember some guys" mode. You could comb through every franchise and at least fill out a 26-man roster of true legends and other fan favorites that fans of that team would be thrilled to see in game. For me, as a Twins fan, the thought of having Jacque Jones, Lew Ford, Corey Koskie, Eddie Guardado, Luis Rivas, Matt Lawton, Eric Milton, Brad Radke, Brian Harper, Greg Gagne, Kent Hrbek, Jack Morris, Rick Aguilera, Shane Mack, Michael Cuddyer, Jason Kubel... I could go on and on... but having all these guys in the game, even as Bronzes or Silvers, would be an absolute blast and would fill out the card collections in a much more interesting way.

      @dw1188 for sure. In the current model, that's going to naturally happen. I think the model I'm envisioning though would prevent that because, as I said, you could comb through and do this for *everyone,* and should! So for the Angels fan we're talking the Chone Figgins types or for the Phillies guys like Darren Daulton and Shane Victorino.
      You could very feasibly fill out a full set for every team like this and *every* fan base would get equal enjoyment instead of kind of being at the whims of SDS and who they decide to give a card to when.

    I alluded to this on X, but I think part of the reason there's a legend problem right now is due to SDS being perceived as a "woke" company. Agree or not, most of the legends of the game were likely conservative. The lack of legends and legends being removed could also be some whitewashing on SDS's part to remove the historical racists and problematic players. Encouraged by Kendrick and having NLB in the game? I'm not sure I would go that far, but it's a thought.
