@EricRayweather for someone that plays strictly dynasty offline, is the rainmaker skill really needed? Trying to debate if I need to buy mvp or just do the base. Don’t really play Madden

[David Binkley @dbinkley21]

@gamingtailgate How important will the new rainmaker skill tree be for an offline dynasty?

[David Binkley @dbinkley21]

@sportsguyshows @bordeauxyoutube That’s what I was thinking but wasn’t sure since I’ve been hearing a lot about rainmaker perk. So wasn’t sure and honestly have been out of the loop. Thanks for your help

Update 3 window has been live since June 10. Here's some buy alerts so far. If you were in our group you would have had Burns before the supercharge. No guessing. Just the model.
Full board drops for followers first. #MLBTheShow26 #DiamondDynasty #MLBTheShow #MLBTheShowInvestment

@Koogs46 Also doesn’t matter what we think as fans. They ruled it that way so it is one. Congrats to Harper on the accomplishment

[David Binkley @dbinkley21]

@Koogs46 That’s not a triple. Double with moving up on the throw. Benefit of playing at home

[David Binkley @dbinkley21]

@depressedphills @Koogs46 Even announcers said it would depend on how they scored it. Got 10+ years of scoring games and wouldn’t have given my teams a triple.

I want to start this off by stating that this post is in good faith and that I am communicating this without any malice.

As someone who has streamed and used your product as a full-time job for over half a decade, I first want to express how thankful I am for it. Please understand and take a step back before reacting to the criticism and counsel that follows. This comes from a place of good faith and honesty.

When people put in hard work and passion into a product and it doesn’t receive the positive response they hoped for, it can be quite confronting and disappointing. We all respond differently to that. We can go on the offensive, ignore it, or choose to take action.

I am certain this year has brought challenges the community isn’t fully aware of. I also believe the company and employees receive negative feedback every year across a wide spectrum of criticism. I suspect this may create a “boy who cried wolf” syndrome—where complaints are dismissed because “they complain no matter what.”
This year feels different. As I stated at the beginning, this message and counsel come in good faith.

“We” (the community) don’t understand your budget or have privileged information about exact manpower. I’m certain problems exist that, if you could transparently share them (without breaching any NDA), might create more grace from the community.
Below are a few primary actions I believe could help put out some flames and meet somewhere in the middle: 👇🏽

• Hader (a live series card actively in play): Rather than removing his card entirely, consider removing his two-seam fastball until a solution is found.

• King (Mexico series card): You could potentially remove him with a supplemental card or disable his sinker.

• Grant Taylor (relatively new): His cards have a bugged release. Please actively work to resolve this in the code—his past cards have had the same issue.

• Cheaters: As I understand it, external hardware makes detection difficult and manpower for observation is limited. Potential focus areas could include monitoring unnatural jumps in batting average in regular ranked games, hours played in auto-scripted mini-seasons, and users whose averages spike dramatically (e.g., from .260 to .590) only during Weekend Classic.

• Bots: Progress has been made, but they still exist and are evolving—especially with cloud gaming.

• PCI Shrinkage: This has been one of the most disappointing aspects of this year’s game. It was stated that PCI shrinkage would be addressed and fixed, but it wasn’t. If changing the code has proven more difficult than expected, just admit it and take accountability. I know that can sting the ego, but it goes a long way.

• Bugs: We obviously have various bugs—nothing is perfect. Just continue chipping away at them one at a time, prioritizing the most impactful ones first.

• Servers: I’m sure budget plays a big role here, which is understandable. We aren’t privy to what you can spend. But it’s 2026, and bottlenecking and disconnects are at an all-time high. Please push for allocating more capital to this issue (knowing offline modes also generate strong revenue).

• Menus: Simplify them!

I’ve never been able to yell at someone and receive a positive response or the outcome I wanted. This is my respectful attempt.

Truly, I believe if you act on even just a few of these we can see a turn around before the allstar break.

@kdjTV611 Seems like it’s only from the windup. In the stretch don’t notice it. Plus he is still hittable and exit velo doesn’t get nerfed.

[David Binkley @dbinkley21]

@kasabekompiles @MLBTheShow Those are awesome

[David Binkley @dbinkley21]

@SamuelAdams_12 AJ Ewing and Charles Mcadoo have been crushing the ball for me in this event

@Nutzypoo_ttv That card will be ridiculously expensive

[David Binkley @dbinkley21]

This is just more of the rinse and repeat that this game has become. Same exact card art from last year. Starting to make CFB look more and more enticing

@kdjTV611 @MLBTheShow Menus are slow and don’t even try to do a showdown

[David Binkley @dbinkley21]

@kdjTV611 This just adds to the terrible game cycle we are in
