Packs are hot today. Pulled Diamond Miguel Cabrera and plenty of gold and silver players. Only opened up 22 packs.


I opened 30 packs and the only decent card I got was the Japanese or whatever closer for the Cardinals last night.

I watched someone rip 300 packs last night and get one gold card lmao.

Played a pick up game last night and was extremely impressed with the new ball physics. You can rip a ball down the RF line and it will spin into the corner. You can hit a jammed shallow pop to left field that spins toward the line and no man's land and leg out a double.

Just beautiful new animations and it plays true to what a baseball game should play. Big fan of that.


But online is still trash.

Pulled Andrew Miller in the first 10 packs of the pre-order bundle . Nice to start off my team with an unexpected 40k stubs.

I played just a 'play now' game with Texas and Houston last night waiting for the Servers to come up and it plays so much smoother than last year's. No dumbass triple clutches either on grounders w/ a guy who has 80 speed it appears.

The way the ball comes off the bat just seems so much more natural as well.

Yep last year I never could get balls to fall in for hits and this year it feels like a lot more realistic with how the ball plays. It always felt like the ball last year would hang in the air for an extra second to allow the OF to get to the ball. This year those balls will drop before the OF gets to it.

Went pick it up at lunch and will start my RTTS when I get home this evening.

Couldn't care less about DD and packs and whatnot, but career mode is the best.

Not a fan of the way they've done missions this year. To complete a single mission you have to play different types of games. I don't like playing online and my go-to is usually conquer.

Yep and now anytime you play online your opponent will message you asking you to let a player on their team hit a home run. This morning I was flipping cards on the show nation website and around nine this morning the website became painfully slow.

It may at a later date.

I have one as well, but no mission for it.

So... true story seeing your PS4 pro reviews of the game made me go out and pick one up. It didn't seem to look that much different to me though.


How are the personalized team interfaces that came with MVP edition by the way? Haven't gotten a chance to see how to turn it on or how it looks

Servers have been a lot better today compared to last night. Looks like they have fixed the servers .
