Lets get back to talking about how awesome this feature is and kissing the Devs booty for implementing it!

Well hey I think it's pointless.

But I'm not going to cry about it......

OK, Obviously youre not a Twitter person, and thats fine. I am.
When MLB got the players involved Tweeting during the ASG, I got into it.
I dont obsess on the thing, but its cool to read some of their thoughts and what theyre up to.

The fact that this has now been integrated, I think is really cool. Can I do without it? Absolutely!

Maybe give it a try, you might actually like it.

That's the point though?

I am a twitter guy and I follow most of these guys anyway.

OK! Great! Now you can follow them right in the game and dont even have to look them up!

What don't you understand about this?

Most of us have Twitter in real life and can follow these guys throughout the day if we want, we don't need a video game showing us the same tweets we've already seen.

Some people, myself included, liked the way it was implemented in Madden.


It's cool that you don't and you are happy but it really isn't hard to believe that not everyone agrees with you and someone could be disappointed with a feature after it's announced (I know that is blasphemy to some).

No one is saying they hate the game as you guys seem to take it, just that this one feature does nothing for most of us.

[Curahee]

I dont expect anyone to agree with me, nor do I care if they do.
I dont think anyone here accused anyone here of hating the game.
If you dont like the Twitter feature and think its pointless, then dont use it.
They didnt add the Madden Twitter but maybe they will next year.
I hope you guys can find something like this that will satisfy what youre seeking.

I understand where you guys are coming from, but we keep expressing our opinions on people expressing their opinions on people expressing their opinions.

Round and round and round.
You have your opinion, I have mine and that guy has his. Its all good!

I think its important for everyone to know this was not meant to be a franchise or RTTS feature. Nor is it the aforementioned replacement for the franchise newspaper... It has already been somewhat stated how that info is going to be relayed in another thread. Twitter is just another link to the real MLB and players, like the MLB.com feed on the front end (which is why you access from the main menu > community tab.) So if any, it is more closely tied to The Show Live.
