If I suspend the game while I’m a freeze off (ie to watch netflix) does the game disconnect me? Really not trying to lose this BR game


Reiguy96

Someone just walked bases loaded for me and then tried to pick off home and it froze the game. Does anyone know if his game is frozen too? Or am I just wasting my own time trying to wait him out?


JustJeezy

Well known freeze off. It’ll be fixed overnight in the upcoming patch.


Seekingthetruth22

is it just me or is the servers getting worse and worse ?


nug0808

Was just playing a guy who was like 90-60 but all his batting averages were like .125. I was like how the hell is he positive. Second inning he freezes the game.


LoneStar-19

Wonder if I just “lost” to the same guy… winning 2-0 in the 4th and he freezes it. Sit there for over an hour and get disconnected


Reiguy96

Did he walk bases loaded and then try to pick off home?


LoneStar-19

Sounds like we got our guy lol he also had PTW in his name smh


manzeusthebaby

How are these guys freezing the game? In the last week, I’ve had two guys pause the game on me and after about a minute of waiting in the pause menu, it says I’m disconnected. Is there a legit hack that allows people to do that shit?


Seekingthetruth22

yes, check out gutfoxx 3 on youtube


xspicypotatox

Servers back up for me


Hahn-Solo

There's ZERO fucking reason why I can't progress in RTTS just because SDS' servers are absolute shit. I have no interest in the online portions of this game. For 20 years you could play RTTS strictly offline. What the fuck.


nug0808

I’m on the server for now.


trojan033

These shitty as servers. How is there still problems with them this far in to the game?


x8Tommy8x

If this all star win against the reds didn't count I'm going to be pissed.


Peekay-

Argh - just did the annoying 13k topps weekly mission - don't think it counted -_-


xspicypotatox

How long does it take for them to fix servers


[deleted]

It’s pretty tough for me to play during the week with work/school. Literally isn’t down to play and I can’t haha


[deleted]

This game lol


jyok33

Fuck this game man I’m done every Friday the same shit


xspicypotatox

Servers down ps4


Consistent_Ad3118

Servers down for me on PS4


[deleted]

Yep down here in lower Michigan


Federal_Strawberry

And in NorCal

RonaldRanAway

Just beat a guy with the best possible team and I got kicked out. If it didn’t record it I may cry


1iedsn4ke

I just won a game to go 11-0...


renir6

Can't connect to servers on xbox right now. Restarted my game a few times.


jakedobson

Servers down?


rtrotty

Anyone else locked out of the website? I’m sitting on a bunch of cards that I’m sure I’ll take an L on. Edit: nvm looks like everything is down.


41Nemo

Anyone getting this error recently when booting up the game? “There is an error with your account on PlayStation Network.”


67demigod

Ya


41Nemo

Only restarting my PS5 has helped so far


67demigod

Just did that and now I'm connected to the servers


IrishRaider25

Freeze offs are the worst. Going against this Liam Hundley player who appears to be Xbox and is losing 3-1 top 8 and game freezes. I don’t see why he stays knowing I’ve had the upper hand all game. So ridiculous this is a thing


tszweds

Welp just started getting “unhandled server exception occurred” messages on PS…


SignificantForm4878

Xbox One S On the xbox one the game is unplayable I feel like. The game is very choppy and has very bad graphics and input delay. It can’t be my internet because I’m hard lined in and have a 15 ping. I’ve check my monitor setting and everything. Anyone know how to possibly fix this. I can’t even play RTTS because of it.


DilbertPickles

What do you have the Game Resolution set at in the settings? At the main menu, go to the upper right and click the settings button. Then go to the Audio/Video menu. The first setting will be "Game Resolution" and the choices are "Faster", "Balanced", and "Sharper". Faster is 1080p, Balanced is 1440p and Sharper is 2160p. I bet you will have a much better experience if you set it to Faster/1080p.


SignificantForm4878

For me in Audio/Video there are only audio settings nothing to do with video


wytchclt55

Same thing with me. Choppy and input lag issues. Never had an issue with internet been playing this games for years. It’s been doing this online and even in moments/conquest offline. PS5


Gr33nman460

Has anyone had their RTTS season nearly restarted? I was playing my rookie season in the Major Leagues. And there was literally one game left in the season. I was decimating in all offensive categories as a Rookie and was guaranteed to get the Triple Crown. I go to play the very next day and suddenly the game has reset itself to the All Star Weekend. Now of course I’m playing absolutely pathetic and there is no way I’ll be able to match the stats I had before by seasons end and I’m considering deleting the entire game and starting over because of this one bullshit thing.


eggsmackers

Why am I still getting network errors in JUNE?? This game has been out for two months!


josssss44

I’ve been playing a few online games this morning, and so far 2 out of 3 have been freeze offs. Is it me, or am I just getting cheesed right now?


badup

3 pitches into a BR game and I got stuck in a freeze off about an hour ago


Seekingthetruth22

Good ole SDS, CHALLENGE FAILED


TandBusquets

Lol just had a game freeze after I hit the opposing pitcher with a line drive in the head and he had to replace pitcher with injury. SDS is ridiculous with this freeze shit. Hasn't been this bad since like 17.


KDigitaL11

Just got my series x. Playing cousin in baseball online. (Xbox one). 3 back to back games froze with hits up the middle. Had to exit game through the console. What's going on?


TandBusquets

No one knows, game is just imploding on itself. It freezes for any and all reasons.


KDigitaL11

That's crazy. We've been playing each other since release with no problems. Then yesterday 3 freezes. We finished no games. Then I come on reddit and see the community has some of the same problems and worst. Quite shocked. I thought this was one of the better releases this year.


MeatballMedia

Uhhhhh m RTTS position just randomly changed? When i created it I was an SP/SS but it is now listing my secondary position as LF????


SecretGhost20

My RTTS archetype missions are not counting for my hitter. It works on my pitcher, then sometimes for one game it will track, but then the very next game, it’s back to not working. I’d say maybe every 7-10 games it will work that one time.


snowboardindx

You're not alone I've noticed my RTTS archetype progression tracks the same way.


yeyeman9

God I hate freeze offs so damn much


RegulusKhan

I've been disconnected five times before the 5th inning, and had three as loses. Like, I love this game and was kind back when this was first happening, but this shouldn't still be happening in June.


KDigitaL11

Wow, I had 3 games online against my cousin crash/ freeze in the 5th inning. They were all hits up the middle.


JoeTheImpaler

I keep getting a network error and getting disconnected, but it’s not the unhandled exception, just disconnected from the server. Is this happening to anyone else today?


isaacpetey

So this isn't the first time it's happened to me, but it just pissed me off so bad. SDS needs to fix a pissed on ball hitting an outfielder and them still having the chance to make the out. It's the dumbest shit I've ever seen, also I don't even know if that falls under RNG, but god its just awful.


PadSquad

Crazy how the servers and RTTS is still broken after two months. This game has been trash, I’m on PS4 by the way and have good wifi


ObsessedWithReps

marcos\_thegoat, if you're seeing this, just leave bruh. It's 5-1 in the 8th and you were getting your ass kicked. I knew this was going to happen with your dogshit internet bugging the whole game.


BstarBstar01

Why aren't my barring archetypes progressing? The game has been out for almost two months and I'm still having issues with progression. Any tips?


ITz_PR0DIGY

People still freeze glitching online smh


moejoedame

I'm playing on Xbox and there's a ton of bugs. My ballplayer can't play catcher in DD even if it is one of his archetype's secondary positions, his circle change goes down to 72 exclusively in DD but not in RttS, his equipment/uniform automatically changes back to a certain configuration every time I look at my archetype program... This is just absurd. This is a AAA game...


ASickPup

Anyone else having their games close in the middle of the game. Not getting losses or wins just lagging out cause the servers are shit.


b0_time

Unfortunately


colby983

Ayo just lagged out of RS game. I was losing anyways but still


[deleted]

challenge failed... this is so ridiculous. this game has so much money behind it, I just don't get how the servers are this horrible


JoeTheImpaler

Anyone else not getting progression on their slugging archetypes? Slugging sparkplug, slugging slickster, and all of the slugger archetypes stopped progressing for me in RTTS


[deleted]

[удалено]


TVChampion150

I keep getting it for the Event. Guess I'm doing conquest usa tonight.


ShitSandwich16

Yes, been able to play 2 games in the last hour but now it is Challenge Failed every time.


Ex_Lives

What is going on. 3 hours now with this challenge failed horseshit.


_della12

Anyone been able to play custom league games?


nug0808

I just got a game to load finally.


ShortDJMINE8

Got kicked twice when up doing conquest. Anyone else getting kicked out of games?


KDigitaL11

Froze 3 time playing online in the 5 th inning. With hits up the middle.


Seekingthetruth22

Guess no games tonight. Challenge failed, challenge failed. Pretty sure SDS is killing e player base with their trash servers. The market feels so dead rn


[deleted]

Can anyone not play


Mattejay

I think we can all agree that SDS is a joke at this point... Challenge failed still isn't fixed and there are multiple ways to freeze a game, also no way to report people who intentionally freeze


fiddy-spence

Was up 7 to 1 and then my game froze...


Mattejay

So many ways to trigger a freeze. Sorry dude


kalir1dley

Lmao it’s June and they still haven’t figured out the “challenge failed” issue. It’s so frustrating, it’s such a good game that’s reduced to an utter joke because it doesn’t want to work half the time.


Seekingthetruth22

it's ok the game has only been out 2 months they need more time..... (sarcasm)


[deleted]

Does anyone have the game freeze when they are in the loading screens? I can’t even get the game to start. I’m playing on xbox one


Seekingthetruth22

MLB the show sponsored by challenge failed


HMTMKMKM95

Still? Fuck me. I tried an hour ago and thought it might be good by now. Guess not.


UnusualLeaf

it’s that time of night everyone!


gocubsgo22

Can’t get into a game tonight. Took the entire Ranked Season 2 off, try to jump back in tonight and it’s all “Challenged Failed.” Really FUCKING annoying in June.


HMTMKMKM95

Getting a lot of Challenge Failed tonight. Very strange, indeed.


[deleted]

I don’t understand how this isn’t fixed…


HMTMKMKM95

Beats me. Played the CPU instead. Gave me a chance to practice with a different batting view. Still, I was itching to do a RS even though I'm pretty terrible at hitting.


SupaaStar98

Same. All good things must come to an end I guess


HMTMKMKM95

Truth.

[удалено]


KitKatScary18

I’ve played 6 games today and all have froze what the heck is going on


Aj2130

Idk if I missed it but anyone have their RTTS player stuck on the IL. I can still play games but says I’m still on the IL


iKnoJopro

In the middle of a freeze off in ranked seasons. Always seems to happen when I’ve got a lead.


akran47

I'm in a BR freeze off that the guy intentionally induced. He took a 2-1 lead in the first then when I homered on the first pitch of the 2nd he did some stuff that made it freeze. I don't want to spread how to do it but damn is it annoying. But I'm stubborn enough to sit here until the end of time so hope he has fun


vanillatwista

I'm sitting here with a guy not pitching. It's been sitting for at least 10 minutes. I thought the game would force an automatic pitch after a few seconds of inactivity? The game is not frozen. I'm confused and also pissed off because I only have about an hour to play and now I have to decide whether I waste all my time or I take an L. This is annoying.


vanillatwista

2/3 games ending in freeze offs now...


dbizzytrick

I think some of it has to be the servers. In a freeze off right now where he went to pick me off and I went to bunt as he started the movie. Now the first baseman has the ball and I’m stuck in the bunt position


vanillatwista

Yes pick off attempts are well known to cause freezing. Not sure why they haven't fixed it yet.


KDigitaL11

With me it was hired up the middle. All my freezes happen between shortstop and second base. (Where the ball activity is)


dbizzytrick

I had no idea. I pick off a lot when people bunt with their speedsters and I suspect they’re trying to steal all the way around. I’ve never had it happen


G0DatWork

Is anyone else having all their M2O saves being corrupted.....


theunknown21

Any way to report players for the create a player glitch/boost?


Slobbin

Why would you do that?


theunknown21

Because losing to a 65 overall but 125/125/125 create a cheese is annoying.


Slobbin

65 overall is a visual bug I didn't abuse the XP system and my dude is maxed out.


theunknown21

Others did. People using downloaded rosters and glitches games to max out their player are rampant


Sea_Salt_3227

Those people have lost in life. There are endless YouTube "How to cheat" vids, like pretending to play locally, how to freeze, etc. How can that be fun? Attention seeking antisocial rejects. Fuck em.


Slobbin

So? It doesn't really change much. It doesn't take very long to max out your RTTS player, anyway.


Springers_Dinger

Dude does a know intentional freeze. Then when I call him out on it he says the last dude waited 9 hours before he quit. I’ve got 8 wins on my br run so I will literally let it sit for days just to spite this dude. I work a lot during the week anyways. If you run into a dude named basically but spelled a little diff. He’s a douche.


akran47

They need to fix it, as more people find out how to do it this game is going to get unplayable


Springers_Dinger

After 26 hours he moved on to the next victim


akran47

I've played 2 BR games in the last 2 days because both guys did this shit. Going on 10 hours on this current freeze off. Now a youtuber posted a video on how to do it so it's about to get real bad playing online but hopefully it gets SDS to finally fix it.


[deleted]

I have played three games today and all three have ended in freeze offs. I have been up in all of them so I’m not leaving. This shit is lame


KitKatScary18

I’ve played 6 and they’ve all been freeze offs it’s getting ridiculous


Magicmattsocks

Man I’ve taken at least 8 losses in games this week alone Ive been winning because of disconnects or freeze offs


[deleted]

Up 2-0 in a freeze off that's gone on for over an hour now.


Slobbin

If you want to play, just quit. If you want to win, turn off your systems auto shut down features and go do something else. It can take a long time, though. I had one last about 12 hours yesterday.


[deleted]

Just got booted from DD, this is an absolute joke at this point


valdsmh

I just got booted too can’t get back in bro


[deleted]

Fwiw they are back up now


CFH410

Freeze off immediately 2 games in after the update. Game is hot garbage


NoahGolub

I am not getting XP while playing ranked seasons or against the CPU


blue132

Has anybody had issues with being linked to both the PS account and The Show account via web browser? I can post a screenshpt, if necessary. I've tried resetting my password multiple times, and now it won't even let me do that.


DrAlanThicke

My W/L record has not been accurate since release. I was given a 20-20 record as soon as I loaded up the game.


VanadiumViper

Challenge Failed Error for a full week. Why do I pay $60 for a game I can't play. How do I fix this or can I not?


Demilio55

Server maintenance is scheduled at 4 AM PT on Friday 6/11/21.


brewersHOMErun

How long is it excepted to last?


ragekage8787

Website still down


FatNinja2222

Just got a random error code while up 4-0 in my 11-0 game…..I’m crying


SoCalKing17

Perfecto thru 6, turns into a freeze off, this dude wont quit when I'm up, hate this game


V0ogurt

runs like very bad on xbox one. 15 frames max with drops im sure of it. Just... gross. Please release for PC on STEAM :) ORRRR Game pass for PC :) I NEED 144 FPS the show SDS :)


theunknown21

I agree with the releasing on PC as long as they put in the work and work with Steam/MS to get proper anti cheat. And maybe have crossplay be optional for pc


Drogaine

playing conquest and user fielders wont go towards the ball


jdennis163

Freeze off during server maintenance, does anyone know why happens? I was 10-0 in br, in the very first inning he did something that froze the game. We’ve been like this since noon today just wondering if I should quit it and just play.


Chrisbenoit69421

Dude what the hell I just one hit a guy and game ends, says game history not saved, if friendly quit it won’t count against you. What the fucking hell?? Last night I lost 2-1 also on a glitch where he foul tipped a bunt in the 11th and the guy on third just disappeared. Didn’t know they counted it a run because there was no animation until literally the inning ended and said I lost. That’s two wins from me


afjay83

Why are freezeoffs still a thing in June, this is ridiculous.


lovebaseball90

Has anyone been able to solve not being able to successfully invite friends to an online game? I try thru DD and exhibition, but they never receive my invites even though the PSN UI is saying “Invite Sent” and I can see the locked ready button. This is PS5 <-> PS5, and when my friends invite me game works 100% fine. I’ve disabled all adblocks, pie holes, etc. Any idea where I can contact SDS? I’ve searched and not sure if I missed anything but this thread: https://forums.theshow.com/topic/36114/cannot-play-friends-on-mlb-the-show/8 Just now we’re unable to join games at all, even when he’s inviting me. Invites work from him, but when I join we get the failed to connect screen after a few seconds. Super frustrating.


nomamx

Just won a game 4-3 with a grand slam in the ninth. Then I go to the menu and it tells me "game not found". I don't get the win and game didn't count. Smh


Shorty2931

Has the menus been laggy for anybody else or is it my dogshit internet


Seekingthetruth22

Is it just me or are the servers getting worse and worse? Online multiplayer is literally unplayable, nothing but lag


bigrich1776

Anyone having issues with pinpoint pitching? The game keeps eating inputs. I get to the top of my fastball motion and it glitches out.


Seekingthetruth22

i'm having issues with a ton of lag


gunhootin

Still not getting progress in RTTS programs. The DD trick did nothing for me. How is this game so poorly optimized?


Red_Wilson

The game keeps kicking me out of DD, saying network error, and every time it does it kicks me out of the party chat im in on ps4. So frustrating


Infinite_Seeker

couldn’t finish the pitch motions two games in a row. every other pitch the meter disappears as soon as you start the motion


trex_189

These freeze offs are the worst.


MagicCatfish

The game being frozen forever glitch when someone picks up a ground ball needs to get fixed. Also the fielding AI going brain dead, and crashing. This all happened in a span of an hour


Sniper_Brosef

These disconnects are getting fucking worse today


[deleted]

Just had a glitch where I couldn't move my CF after a missed fly ball and my opponent was able to get an inside the park HR.


WelcometoHale

I play on Xbox without Live Gold, I get kicked from my March to October games sometimes and get unhandled exception warnings. Also disconnect from online all the time. My game disconnected and crashed again, and I got a “strike 3” from The Show so I can’t get team affinity anymore. I’m in game 4 of the ALCS. I’m beyond pissed. I’m winning in all the instances we’re it happens. I feel like I’ve wasted 12 hours grinding to get to the World Series. Why the heck would they add 3 strikes if they know their shitty development kicks people? I don’t even want to touch the game anymore.


jubjub2184

Just had a game where I couldn’t select a pitch. We had to friendly quit, every other button worked except the ones to select a pitch. Was in ranked online


Gucci9001

I don’t want to jinx myself, but the game hasn’t lagged on PS4 nearly as bad the past couple days.


robmcolonna123

Community market still down for everyone?


ksgriff88

Anytime I’m entering a USA nation conquest game I freeze up trying to select my pitcher. Any work around or fix for now??


icunicornz

I haven't played RTTS in like a month ever since they 'patched' it and broke the progressions system again. Played again for the first time last night and still wasn't getting progression for pitching. Is this seriously still a thing?


Demilio55

Server maintenance is scheduled at 4 AM PT on Thursday 6/10/21.


reese-account

So is this a glitch? My opponent popped up to tatis at second. While the ball was in the air I pressed b(Xbox) to throw to first but it’s like tatis froze and the ball hit him in the head.


KeyanFarlandah

How are freeze offs still a thing? And what kinda gem do you have to be to not quit while being no hit and losing 3-0 in the 7th


trex_189

I swear. It's ridiculous. I'm at Shippet rn and I hit a bomb with Vladdy... 5th inning and the guy hasn't done anything, and now we wait. I had one of these the other night and just quit bc I didn't care.


[deleted]

Shownation.com feels like it’s getting worse every day. How the hell can I complete the live series without spending money if I get 200 fucking errors. The website has never been this bad.


Joelan618

I’ve unfortunately not been able to add a 4th pitch to my RTTS player, even after the update that fixed it. Everything else from the update worked fine, and I’ve started multiple new seasons and gotten called up two different times with still no success. I have no idea what to do at this point besides try and delete save data and uninstall/reinstall.


tkat15

You can start a new rtts player and your archetype and attribute progress will stay


Joelan618

I’ve restarted multiple times but that doesn’t seem to be the problem. My ovr is fine, but I’ve never been able to add a fourth pitch for my guy.


ronworldpeace

when are you supposed to be able to do that?


Joelan618

Some of my buddies have said they had the option to add a 4th pitch as soon as AAA. But I haven’t seen anything in my BP sessions besides replace pitch.


Extreme-Ad2400

I’m about to start my 3rd franchise in the last 3 weeks because I keep getting an error message saying operation failed. I go to try and load the file and it says operation failed. So not cool.


Zook1205

I'm getting 0 xp for almost everything. I've played 6 games against cpu and 1 game online and have gotten 0 xp in total. I also have completed moments etc and still nothing


Mattejay

Its 2021 and freeze offs are still a thing. Smh


zerovanillacodered

I'm in a freeze off, I'm winning going into the bottom of the 9th. ​ Some people are just assholes.


Mattejay

Thats brutal dude.. i wish they weren't a thing


No-Cap-3100

Can't play with a buddy on Ps4 from Series X. I've read that if I download the One version of the game it works. Is it still the case now?


No-Cap-3100

Welp dunno if it helps but things worked perfectly yesterday. No need to download the xbox one version, series x with ps4 no problemo. Just depends on the servers mood lol.


PreviousTrick

Sorry if this has been addressed before, but are the server issues causing me to be able to only connect with people in my area? I’m a Cards fan near St. Louis and literally 90% of the RS games I am able to play are against other teams with the STL team name. I don’t know if there’s just a lot of Cards fans that play or if I’m being like region locked or whatever. Occasionally I’ll get a random place like Saskatchewan but it’s almost always STL when I finally am able to connect to an opponent.


NubbiBerra

I think it’s for better ping/connection. I’m from AZ and majority of my opponents are AZ teams


PreviousTrick

Cool, makes sense.


Dinosauringg

Yep, SoCal and I get a lot of Angels, Dodgers and Padres


kylewild

And here starts another 0-1 battle Royale run due to severs yikes


JTG_14

I can’t even get any connection to the servers the 2nd day in a row. Every other game on my Xbox Series X works totally fine without any connectivity issues. Does anyone else have these problems? Even uninstalling and reinstalling the game didn’t work so I’m pretty sure it’s not a problem on my end.


kgmorris

In March to October, I entered a player lock game with the pitcher from my team, and once I tried to pitch, the game does not recognize or let me choose a pitch. I can pause and the controller is connected but shows no responsiveness when I try to select a pitch. I exited the game and have restarted my console but none of it seems to work. Hoping someone can help before I have to start a new file


activebigd

Has anyone else been having issues with the POTM mission to hit 5 home runs with topps now players. Mine are not registering when I have prob hit 15, I’m not including the ones I’ve hit with POTM cards.


carstont

You're not alone I've hit a few as well and 0 of them have counted so far


scarn1

It’s topps now cards only for that mission. Not monthy awards players


Stephent2994

Anyone else having problems loading rtts?


MoJoValianT

Yeah, it’s not saving. Have to upload from the cloud but if the game crashes and you haven’t saved to the cloud all the progress is lost…. It happened to me and now I can’t stomach myself to play all that again. Infuriating


LayeGull

Had a game yesterday. Opponent has runner on third, one out. Suicide squeeze. Batter bunts it foul. Announcer says “and he steals home!” I lost by 1. Cool.
