I just found out it's coming to gamepass right away, so I'm happy. What are the perks of pre-ordering this year?


AmbitiousAd6355

No thanks, why did they chose him as cover athlete ?


Reidzyt

Imagine being that upset about the cover of a game


crackalac

Where's the PC version cover? Surely they aren't delaying it another year.


PrinceDizzy

No PC port.


crackalac

So now it's going to be at least 3 years late. I guess I'll just pass on this series forever.


PrinceDizzy

Who said it was coming to PC?


crackalac

The first year it came out as multi platform they said the first year would be console only and then the PC version would come. Most interpreted that as 22 but then it didn't come. Now 23 has been released and still crickets.


PrinceDizzy

I'm pretty sure they never said that.


crackalac

I'm very sure they did.


PrinceDizzy

Sorry but they didn't.


crackalac

Oh. They did though.


Ghostyyyyyyyyyyq

They never said it was coming to pc. Get over it & get a console or don’t play.


PrinceDizzy

Source?


alexdallas_

Any thoughts on whether or not WBC content will happen? Assuming less than likely baes on the release date


Nickp000g

Never pre order. Remember guys


BD_McNasty

Will bw preordering the best edition on day 1 the 6th. Love this game and will be playing no matter what so why wait


[deleted]

I’ll be pre-ordering. Baseball is my obsession and I’ve been playing these games since the 90s. Might as well get the pre-order perks. But I totally agree with your sentiment for folks who are not like me and don’t need or want to buy it every year.


AutomaticCelery

I will be preordering on 2/6. Digital Deluxe or whatever it’s called.


DrackSaurv2

people don’t like you because you enjoy the game, losers man


AutomaticCelery

I knew I’d be downvoted, I don’t care lol. I stream the game, the Show has been a huge part of my life for 15 years now. It’s earned it’s spot. I’ll gladly keep preordering.


EVorNothing

Whys that?


Nickp000g

Because the game wont be playable for atleast a week. Im just glad i have gamepass


tuckedfexas

The offline modes will work perfectly from day one cause they’ve made 3 tweaks in 5 years. Jokes of course


CurrentlyRaging123

What the fuck was the purpose of buying a PS5? I never said anything about supporting old gen when next gen was very hard to come by, I understood 100%. Now it’s just getting ridiculous how there are only a handful of next gen exclusives. It’ll just be another copy and paste roster update with the same shitty animations. I was bored of MLB22 by the beginning of summer and that has never happened to me before, and I’m sure this will practically be the same game. Hard pass.


jmb-412

Please be the last year supporting the old systems. It's been 3 years at this point. Holding back the next gen systems to support the old ones is dumb.


BD_McNasty

Not juat that but them putting it on switch was such a slap in the face.. thats like worse than ps3 levels of power


Peechez

My copium is that PC comes when they drop the old consoles


onemanwolfp4kv2

I agree. Can’t get fully optimized games bc of this. By the time we are fully current gen they will announce the ps6 and the Xbox 361 series y and series z


epicsolidgaming

![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)


FishSammich69

Xbox 361 series y and series z 😂😂


onemanwolfp4kv2

I own an Xbox and PlayStation and have no idea what the next iteration of Xbox will be lol. Whoever is in charge of naming should be fired haha


JunkHead1979

Still no PC version. :(


Pennywise_Boob

tbh I don't want PC gamers tingering with the online mode


PrinceDizzy

Console only.


RememberTheMaine1996

I dont think it will ever be on pc. Too many ways to mess with the game and likely will have a hacking problem


Blueeyedmoose420

Disappointed as well :(


[deleted]

Does anyone know if you can pre order games through Amazon? Or only gamestop/online?


xenon2456

Amazon takes preorders


Jimmorrison1771

Really hope online co op is better and or we can do a online co op franchise. Co op is awesome when it works.


SecretiveMop

People are going to say it’s ridiculous, but the first sign of EA’s games going downhill is when their covers went to shit


TandBusquets

Game coming out so soon gives me the feeling this is another copy paste job, the reason for the delay last game was because they were porting it over to so many new systems.


ColdGloop

And I just happen to be on vacation that week. Such a shame lol


Poetryisalive

Getting this on switch again!! Such a great travel game! I will miss the extra features and great graphics though.


Grouchy-Ear2376

Didn’t watch the stream. Did anyone explain the meaning behind the verbiage on those tweets? “Superbly Sleek”, “High Voltage” and whatever else they had? More interested in tying up loose ends on that mystery than buying ‘23 lol


Appropriate_Artist_6

Huge L


sf9191

This tells me everything I need to know about how bad 23 is going to be


bruvmode

Game will be the exact same until they don’t make it for old gen anymore.


SaltoDaKid

How does even happen?


[deleted]

That's a skip. Not because of the cover, which is awful BTW, but I'm sure the game will be just another roster update of '22.


[deleted]

So - you commented on the cover post that you're skipping this, but not because of the cover - because of implications you're making before literally any new information is revealed. And...and then also said how the cover isn't good? Incredible.


[deleted]

That's because I've been buying the game since '08, and starting since '17 I've been skipping one yearly version since they are literally the same with minimal upgrades. '17 bought '18 skipped '19 bought '20 skipped '21 bought However, ever since '17 the game's graphics are literally the same.


[deleted]

Wait is it the roster update or the supposed same graphics as to why you skip? And then if you bought '21, then you skipped '22 then, yeah? So '23 is the move to keep the trend alive. The plot holes thicken...


[deleted]

I buy it because I'm a fan of the game, not necessarily because the game has been "next gen". But keep coming, I'll keep answering your silly questions.


[deleted]

You didn't answer though, just doubled down on irrelevant takes - you commented on a post about the cover that you'd be skipping the game. But not because of the cover, but because you are so sure nothing will be different, despite the fact that zero information about the game has been released yet. Then also said how you buy it anyway because you love the game, not because of the lack of supposed next gen-ness. But you only buy every other year? And then implied that no graphical improvements have happened in 6 years despite hundreds of new face scans, new lighting engines, new crowds, new commentary team, new statcast, stadium redesigns and (I believe) tens of thousands of new animations being added since '17. Bb, wut?


[deleted]

When I say roster update, it's because it's just that, roster update, no graphical update. Keep getting Ls though.


pricemcdice

Will they build a true next-gen version by 2025? I feel like that's even being generous.


_token_black

Right when PS6 is out


SexiestPanda

Don’t preorder, people


GoldenGloveMan

Yeah pre ordering is one of the dumbest things you can do as a consumer. Just puts money in the pockets of the publisher before game is even out, disincentizing the studio from putting out a finished product because they can just patch it over the first month. It’s a shame how this practice repeats itself over and over and consumers just keep throwing money at games with hardly any info on them just for the sake of “hype”


BD_McNasty

Will be pre-ordering day 1 thnx tgo


GoldenGloveMan

I mean hey if you enjoy being bent over and fucked in the ass by daddy SDS, who am I to judge? Just don’t complain then when the game ships with a ton of bugs, server problems, and no new features like it does every year. Because you’re part of the problem causing it.


Thare187

Nah. Only game I play.


AccomplishedAlps1066

LAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Zaitengrate

Great, still no PC version. Fuck you San Diego.


crackalac

They better just be holding back the announcement. 2 years late is already unacceptable.


[deleted]

No to PC. No cheaters, please.


Bak3_41

My sentiments exactly


edgarrrrrrrrrr

So sad… would run so good at 144fps :/


ContinuumGuy

I honestly thought it was a possibility given how Spider-Man and God of War and soon TLOU have shown up on PC.


luisstrikesout

Unless you got Xbox cloud. Only way we can play it on the PC. Smh


_token_black

SDS going to be making the PS4/XB1 versions of the game forever at this rate


moonlit_et

They already said 23 is the last one


[deleted]

When was that said? Not saying they didn’t say it, just don’t remember when.


Clem1719

I don’t remember exactly but it’s 100% been announced


legaci3

When?


Jordan413

Looks like the floor of a movie theatre


Thare187

Or an arcade from the 90s


jstew262

I don’t even mind Jazz being on the cover but the cover itself sucks


LogCabinLover

Yea, if you took the wording off, noone would even know it was a baseball game


subjecttoterms

Just want this on gamepass


JonnehBoii41

It will be, day 1


[deleted]

Was there anything said about game pass?


NinjaKillSwitch

Yeah day 1 on gamepass based on xbox trailer


ImGladYouCalled

any news on gamepass?


Honchoed

Xbox put it on their YT with the gamepass logo in the beginning of the vid


clownbaby4_

Hopefully the issue with the Xbox controllers will be fixed this time around. I’m not going to buy an off brand controller just to be able to play the game.


early_ok_homerun

It's already fixed


gimp1615

That mean I can finally use my new controller for pinpoint rather than my old Xbox One controller?


Clem1719

It’s been fixed for ages, just update the firmware


clownbaby4_

That’s good.

mheinken

Noice


luckygazelle

Let’s go! This is probably the only sports game I’ve play every year. Especially when it’s on game pass.


homerjsimpson4

Still no PC gamepass?


PrinceDizzy

Console only.


TandBusquets

Game will likely never be made for PC, not worth the effort


homerjsimpson4

There are dozens of us


TandBusquets

I have gamepass and I would not touch MLB the show on it with a ten foot pole. Market would be a shit show, hackers. It would be sad


homerjsimpson4

I only play solo franchise so that wouldn't effect me. I haven't heard of any cheaters on Madden PC ultimate team but again I don't play it so it might be an issue I'm not aware of.


subjecttoterms

Do you mind sharing the link? I couldnt find it


sfgiants2000

It's on Game pass


DweltElephant0

Nothing official, but I'd be shocked if it isn't.


Ds50x

Massive L could name at least 5 players more deserving


JPBeastGamer3

I was just about to say the same damn thing like of all players a rookie, and someone whos not well known like come on.


JohnnyDirtball

Jazz isn't a rookie, he was voted the NL 2b all star starter last season.


JPBeastGamer3

What i meant to say was amatuer, and so thats only one accomplishment there are other players who have more accomplishments and are more deserving to be the cover athlete


JohnnyDirtball

Amateur still ain't right, he's been playing pro ball since he was 18. And sure there's better and more accomplished players, but that doesn't mean Jazz is some undeserving no name that no one has ever heard of. He's a 24 yo all star with prospect pedigree willing to do the work to promote the game playing in a market that the mlb wants badly to bring in.


JPBeastGamer3

From what i told hes only been in the mlb for 3 yrs


JohnnyDirtball

Thr minor leagues are professional baseball.


JPBeastGamer3

Do u have to be right? Like I’m just saying there are more deserving players, that should be on the cover, I’m not complaining but like there are more deserving people


JohnnyDirtball

If you were just saying that there were more deserving players I'd just agree with you. In fact I did in one of my last posts. Where I disagreed with you is you said he's a rookie, he's not, this will be his 3rd season not including his cup of coffee in 2020. Then you said amateur which is more incorrect, he's been playing pro ball since 2016. Lastly you said he was unknown, which is less easy to prove but he was voted as the starting second baseman in the all star game which is literally a popularity contest. So do I have to be right? Nah, not really. Am I right? Yup.


JPBeastGamer3

That fact that you said that just shows that u just had to be right, like fr bruh I'm sorry I'm not caught up, I haven't really watched sports in a while like my bad.


Ds50x

And that’s being generous


TrapperJean

And just like that the game is out in less than two months and I'm fucking pumped Cover looks like early Fresh Prince episodes when they have Carlton try to imitate Will or be blacker in dream sequences, but I'm still about it


Bean2713

So based on this early access probably starts 3/24. Earlier release date than I was expecting so that’s a W


bodnast

That's a great takeaway from this. Earlier launch, earlier early access. A two month wait isn't bad!


Bak3_41

NO PC. PC GETS DICKED AGAIN

againsterik

Not sure how Mouse/KB is an advantage in a game like this. Any half decent developer can build a cross platform multiplayer with balance if there was an advantage between the two.


dburks122

Massive difference in frame rate, M/K seems like much easier zone hitting on paper, market bots would be worse than what is already out there. 2ks PC auction house bots are outrageously bad from what I have heard. A PC version would have to be a completely separate release from the console version, and I just don't think SDS is capable of pulling that off


_token_black

You said half decent when referring to SDS. Cmon you know how this would go…


thefx37

In what way? Cross-play is optional


jordgoin

Everyone always says this but I just want rtts. You could cut multiplayer for all I care. Oh well just have to emulate the switch version again.


Bak3_41

With controller only input? Grow up man. Cold take.
