MLB 13: The Show

[killgod]

For someone who didn't give enough of a fuck about the league to spend 2 minutes writing a post letting everyone know what you were up to, and instead went MIA, you sure get pissy when someone calls you out on doing a bad job. It's a shame that your half assery has killed off the desire to play in a Show league from a lot of the people who were once active.

Lol. What a terrible group if I'm the one that broke their drive to play the game. How fragile. You couldn't run a league to save your life, spare me your wisdom. The simple fact that NO LEAGUE came out, despite it being the middle of the MLB season, proves that there's no group of MLB players here that would see it out.


My reasons for why I wasn't here my own and I couldn't give a shit what you have to say about that.

and I will most likely resist the temptation to join any online league as they never seem to finish a season.

Have KG to thank for this!

For 3 years? This league is 1/5 in attempts you realize? Only ever worked with 10 people. All on me I suppose, despite leading every single season in Games Played when it stopped? My bad.

I played over 45 games in our 11 season before VSN killed it. Half the league wasn't close. But people won't play here cause of me?

Can we just talk about the game yes? This is stupid.

So the league only worked as a 10 person league, but you thought it was a good idea to have a 20+ team league last year. Brilliant! It doesn't matter how many games you play, you were the one allowing people who didn't play their games to join. As someone who claims to be so involved with the gaming community here, you should have known who was reliable to play their games and who wasn't.

But still you ignored suggestions from others to have a smaller league and to keep certain people out. Worked great!

The league that VSN killed by crashing, was 30 teams and had no signs of not finishing, I just happened to be well ahead in the schedule. The majority of the owners included last year, were involved in that 30 team league.

Give it a rest. You weren't involved in anything prior to last season, you're clueless with what the hell you are talking about and that's blatantly obvious.

my post was not a shot at KG, I give him credit for trying which is more then I can say for most people. I will echo KG's comments on the fact that baseball is the hardest sport to run a successful league for because of the amount of games that you have to play to get a season finished and this dates back to my time with MVP Baseball on ps2/ original xbox. You got to find a group of diehard baseball fans that arent using the league as a spingboard to another game like madden, nba,nfl,ncaa,fifa,etc to get the league to work. Most people that arent diehards ditch this game once NCAA Football and Madden are close to releasing which is generally early July.

I love baseball and love the Show and would love to see a group of diehards run a good league here but its easier said then done. Goodluck to anyone who tries

Have you always ran full seasons? Or short season?

No we've tried as low as 25 games and the 30 teamer was to go about 70.

If I am successful getting into my RadTech program this fall, my '13 Spring will be devoid of school and my work schedule will be more flexible. In other words, my reliability factor for TGS should increase by a significant margin.

Also the Dodgers will be insane in MLB: 13. Can't wait.

Why they have a "fake" player profile for Hunter Pence, I don't understand.

Doesn't explain Pence having a stock photo but it was mentioned that when a player changes teams (in Franchise & RTTS), a stock photo with the teams new uniform will show up. They said it was too hard to change the uniform on actual photos. I like the idea but then it goes down the drain if the stock photos doesn't even look like the player.

Does this game/series allow you to bring in historic players or teams for franchise mode? Or does it at least allow you to download rosters and replace the ones they give you.

Not that I think a league could happen here, but they revamped the online league shit apparently to give the commish complete control. Guess it wouldn't matter if its still laggy and shit tho.

I think some people quit because it's constant complaining amongst some of the players which leads to inactivity on the forums then quitting all together. I'll always join because I like to play in leagues and have fun playing the games. If it fails I still got to play the games.


Can't wait for 13. Keeps getting better each year and the way it sounds is the biggest improvement in a few years except maybe that they dumbed down the hitting back to the way it used to be allowing everyone to hit .400
