Just got my X yesterday and this game is fricking beautiful.

Fast, no lag, 120 hz. Beautiful.

That does it. I'm going to see how to order one of these dang things.

How did you go about acquiring yours? I just downloaded that Hotstock app to set alerts. Best buy and target both show availability but when I go to their websites it's not actually available.

ETA: oh hell yea best buy released some minutes after I posted this hahaha. I'll have it next week.

I’ve had this game for 3 months now and SDS has still failed to fix the no crowd noise bug in the top of the first inning in every game I play.

Unbelievable. Go into a damn World Series game and there’s no crowd noise for the first 3 outs.

Mine does that to on "use contact swing to drive in a run".

If I hit it too hard with the contact swing, it fails the challenge.

Hot stock app.

I bought this last weekend with the ASG on deck. Having not purchased since ‘17, I like some of the changes but am overall disappointed with how little has changed. Granted, I’m still on a PS4, but other than graphics I can’t imagine the next gen versions are much better.

I kind of like the two-way player option as I usually played multiple RTTS players. My question is, how long did everyone stick with that before changing to one or the other?

Well, maybe you can highlight some for me because to this point I see no difference in the pitching, fielding, hitting, or base running interface. Commentary is the same. No appreciable difference in graphics (which as I said could be due to still being on the PS4).

RTTS doesn’t feel drastically improved.

Maybe the fault is mine, but I’d expect the game to feel somewhat different after a 4 year gap.

I’m loving the game still but there’s a few things that bother me:

I’ve made it to year 8 and 4th in the majors and every year I’ve had some random injury that puts me on the DL for 60 days.

I’ve lead my team in every batting category each year and yet I’ll still be at the bottom of the lineup 50% of the time.

For whatever reason I can not change teams. I’ve asked my agent for 3 years and nothing happens. Just would like a change of scenery after winning it all with one team.

PLEASE stop changing my jersey number 20 times a season.

Clicking on My Ballplayer Loadout each time resets all of my equipment.

It would be nice to have more of a variety when playing in the field. At SS all I ever get is ground balls and an occasional pop up. A play to where I have to dive for a line drive or dive to throw a guy out would be nice.

i have to go put both batting gloves on after each series. strange glitch.
