... Scott is a franchise guy too dude ...

I didn't see this. If anybody has a screenshot can you share it?

Atleast having the pitcher energy will be helpful. Thanks for the heads up Mil.

I think people seem to be forgetting this, even though it happened less than six months ago:

It isn't as easy as, "oh, give them more people!" or "oh, just divert some resources here!"

We're lucky to have this awesome 80-man team that works well and makes the game flow better than any other big title. With the large teams that Madden and 2K have, I often feel like there are a lot of disconnects between areas of their games, which leads to a number of "game breaking" issues.

I'm not even a The Show homer, as I was underwhelmed at the initial stream, but so far this is shaping up to be the best game they've ever created. Sure, they didn't completely revamp franchise, and sure, they probably didn't touch Online Franchise. But if there is anything I've learned as a Cubs fan, trust the process. Everything they do is calculated and is on a solid plan that starts with a solid foundation.

I'm not discounting any complaints by the way, I just believe that some people should look at the bigger picture at times.

And NBA 2k17 outsold MLB: The Show 16 just short of 5:1


4.98 million for NBA 2k17 (2.83 on the PS4)
1.03 million of MLB: The Show


So it is not surprising that the NBA 2k team can support a much larger development team.

You can see the energy bar just to the right of Arrieta's portrait.





Of course, my question with this screenshot is why is Diaz leading off in front of Fowler?

If I ask my wife to go buy bread and milk at the store and she comes home with eggs and ice cream, is it because she didn't have enough money? Or is it because she maybe wasn't listening when I told her I needed bread and milk.

SCEA is not catering to us, they are catering to the casual player.

Who, whether you or I like it or not, make up the overwhelming majority of the player base, and is responsible for the majority of the revenue.

Exactly, let's not forget that OS makes up less than 1% of MLB The Show's revenue.
