Photo-Realistic Billy Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 1 minute ago, rmc523 said: So I've never played the show since I have an XBox, so forgive my ignorance - what is Diamond Dynasty? Is that like creating a player and following him throughout his career? I'm in no rush, considering I'll have to get a new console just to build a park. Diamond Dynasty is comparable to Ultimate Team in Madden. It's a kind of fantasy baseball where you can build your team with current and historical players, design your uniforms and logos, and play online against 10 year olds who'll whip your butt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Posted March 26, 2021 Author Share Posted March 26, 2021 Diamond Dynasty is a big mode, it is the a favorite mode for a lot of people. I enjoy it in spurts. If you're going to play it though, getting free packs and stubs is a good way to begin your team there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The creating part sounds fun. The 10 year olds part doesn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can play against the CPU in all kinds of challenges and events to earn packs and legendary type players. I found that a lot more fun than online play in DD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that'd probably be more my speed. When I played MLB2k back in the day, I always just played against the computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll say that's what I did for years, but once I got a better TV (and suddenly realized my old TV had bad lag), then I went from struggling in All-Star mode to winning regularly in Legend mode. That's when I started playing online regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 After staying away from DD because it was intimidating I dove in in 19 and it's an absolute blast but you need to commit a lot of time to get the best out of it, almost daily actually. If you're willing to do that go for it. If you're more likely to play other modes and just dabble in DD here and there I wouldn't even bother with it. It's very much an all or nothing mode. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gizmo Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 After unlocking Mantle in 20, I have no further desire to do DD anytime soon. This is a skip year for me anyway, so hopefully 22 takes advantage of the PS5 even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can no longer offer it via Game Pass at any time and then Xbox owners have to buy it anyway. Though it'll likely be discounted by that point.

I think the least amount of time a game has been on Game Pass is 4 months. Even if it’s only 2 months, it will be cheaper to buy by then. Also, Microsoft offers a discount to buy games before they are removed from Game Pass. Edited April 6, 2021 by GuitarPik 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Pretty unlikely that the game will be below $70 in two or three months. What this does though is gets more people in the door, which is exactly what they want. MLB 22 will have a ton more sales because MLB 21 was accessible. It's a good move.

AeroFishOne Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 I’m so ready to finally get this for Xbox. Haven’t played in several years after I sold my ps4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
