Just played ranked game. Hard fought win of course no record of it even being played in game history or in record. ....

You must be the lucky one. My friend and I tried for some time, twice tonight, at different times to send challenges to eachother and nothing went through. I'm also finding the Game Lobby bulletproof challenge system is failing now as well. What a horrible night for online MLB.

I had the same issue last night. Online doesn't appear to be getting any better.

Great game if it ever actually worked online. This game is the only reason I have a ps4 and pay for plus. My brother and I tried to play online against each other on Saturday and after it never working we just gave up.

Not sure if it's something that changed this year or i never saw it very often last year but i have seen a lot more(still fairly rare) plays where the infielders dive for the ball but they can only get enough glove on it to deflect it. In the past i feel these would have just stuck in the glove or the dive wouldn't get near the ball and it would be a routine single and while they have all resulted in base hits it just adds a bit of variety to hits.

In past versions i would see the fielders deflect the ball when they dived and it hit a part of there body but don't remember them getting there gloves to it and not holding onto it.

My biggest complaint is that I haven't had enough time to play since the game dropped This 'work' think keeps getting in the way...

I don't play online, so I guess I'm insulated from those issues, and I play a pretty simple game (I'm not as young as I once was) so I don't get too deep into all the bells and whistles, but I'm loving what I'm seeing so far.

Hitting feels great aside from the nagging "doubles down the line" issue. Pitching is great (I use Classic...don't judge), and I feel like I'm walking a few more than ever before (which is a good thing).

Graphics are great, but I do agree that it is time for some kind of upgrade on the players...whether it be new models, or even 'cloth physics'. Does anyone else feel like they fell in love with the new PBR? Some stuff just looks too shiny (jersey numbers and helmets come to mind)...it looks great for most of it, but there are just a few things that are over done IMO.

Anyways, Great Job as always SCEA! Keep it coming

Let's face it. This rollout of this game as been a disaster. We have not gotten what we paid for. Some guys can't even start playing because of bugs. This year's version has been a step backwards. I'll remember this next year when I'm being wowed by their live streams and videos.

I'm starting to get nothing but connection failed when trying to play DD now. Last night I tried for like 15 mins before I gave up & this was about 11pm PST. Sucks that this is happening because I really want to like this game...
