Like I said we know going in so adapt to the mode. You already need to make a big adjustment to adapt to online play. I'd rather be playing 9 inning games, but if the rewards are better in Battle Royale I'll likely play it if the buy in is low. If this is unappealing to people then SDS will know by how popular it is. I'm betting though this will be quite popular as people love to gamble.

as for finding a way to make it a little more challenging fundamentally I get it, no stolen base should ever be given just by tapping L2 once and than not having to concentrate. Even for a hit and run you should always have to hold L2 until the pitcher delivers

If not then I think the game should be tuned according to what the stats look lik at the top of the leaderboard. Last year the stolen base rate for top players in DD was in the mid to high 80%. In real life the rate is about 75% success rate. If that occurs again it would be very possibly to tune things to get it more into line with realism. There is no reason steals have to be that high. They can tune many aspects from catchers velocity on steal attempts to player speed on steal attempts, the leaderboard tracks many stats and I think it's a great resource which should be used to tune the game. Especially now that the skill levels are Veteran/AS/Hall of Fame. You can tweak each individual skill level to the players of that tier and make the game as realistic as you wish for each skill.

Personally, between the wife, our young kids, work, life, etc., I was relieved to hear that these games will only be 3 innings. Probably the biggest reason I didn't get into DD this year was the single game time commitment. I am primarily a franchise player and will get my simulation 9 inning fix there when I have the time, but this will be a great option when time is limited.
If it works well, these could potentially become my go-to secondary modes this year and replace my time in RTTS.

Both of these modes look amazing. I really have to give a slow clap to SCEA this year on their complete revamp of Diamond Dynasty. My biggest gripe with DD, besides the lack of special cards (which they added this year) was the 50 minute on average games I had to play. It just wasn't enjoyable for a casual gamer like me that doesn't have much time.
These 3 inning games in Battle Royale are perfect. Pretty much exactly what I was recommending last year. I don't agree with people's concerns that 3 innings will result in a base stealing cheesefest (especially since they stated that they eliminated bunting and steal abuse) but we'll see. They can always increase the mode to 5 innings next year if it turns out to be a problem.
It's going to be a long wait until the end of the month.

I love the sound of both of them. I think somebody will probably come up with something similar, but to my knowledge, Conquest is completely unique to sports games. It sounds amazing.
Lol ShowTyme, got mine a week early last year... maybe I'll get lucky again. I've been saving up just in case I have to pay the price.

I never played Sony's NBA games, but its cool to see they are taking pieces from their old licensed games to help build MLB The Show up even more!
