But the new game has never improved because of it. Fact for me the old game played better when the new game came out because of less people online. When they shut off the servers for 14,15,etc. I suppose people will realize what is going on. The cloud is the servers, if you can't connect, there is no cloud.

There's 330,000 plus....I checked leaderboards. That doesn't include homerun Derby, online chise or diamond dynasty.

It's just bad business to keep those servers up. They aren't making money. Why would they??? Also, there is nothing stopping you from taking your online franchise save or whatever you have, upload it to the cloud since you have a PS3, and then download it back down into MLB 15. It's not that hard to do. I really think people are just complaining to complain with this one.

Actually this cannot be done.

You obviously have no clue what you are talking about and I think it is bad business to add features to the game that will become obsolete once the cloud is gone. You do realize almost half the game fails to function one it's turned off?

A simple setting to allow you to transfer files via USB between both systems should have been implemented from the beginning.

Also I could care less about online servers, I'll repeat it again...online play has always been garbage for this game. I just want the features to work as intended. Wait until they shut off the servers in June for MLB 14, PS3 and vita owners will not be able to use year to year saves anymore...another new feature pimped out this year.

Pretty sure they already said the servers would stay up longer. So why does it matter anymore?
