MLB the Show 24 New York Mets Franchise Mode | Ep1 Intro and Opening Day vs Milwaukee Brewers!

[@Kuni0341]

As a Red Sox fan I cried a little when you made me rewatch Buckner let the ball go under his legs

[@FranchiseGaming]

I'm sorry 😔 but it's a big piece of Mets history too!!!

[@Kuni0341]

That’s fair. I will still be watching for the long haul.

[@FranchiseGaming]

@@Kuni0341 appreciate that! Means a lot!

[@javiernovoa8756]

Not a Mets fan, but love your story telling and realistic take on your franchise mode. Looking forward to the ride.

[@FranchiseGaming]

I respect it

[@JustinArthQB]

This is where I wish my friend, Justin Courtney, was still in the Mets farm system to be in this series. Gonna be hard rooting for this team as a Braves fan but FG, I'll suck it up for this franchise lol

[@FranchiseGaming]

Dang...well I guess I know what custom prospect you'll be submitting haha. Also, don't worry, one of my channel members and long-time Twitch mods is a Braves fan who refuses to root for me in this series. It's fine.

[@JustinArthQB]

@@FranchiseGaming 🤣🤣 Well I'll root for you as long as its against the Phillies. It's gonna be a good series though! Courtney was released after spending time in Spring Training and then AAA and AA with the Mets so he's playing Indy ball now trying to get back similarly to my arena football endeavors. I've still got some buddies in the game you might have to trade for in Sawyer Gipson-Long and Cam Brown of the Tigers, Shane Greene of the Rangers and Daniel Camarena of the Padres if he's somehow still in the game.

[@FranchiseGaming]

@@JustinArthQB will check it out just for you sir!

[@rdavis001315]

I started a franchise with the mets yesterday. First thing i did was trade starling marte for a prospect (free'd up like 15 mil in my budget) and signed Jordan Montgomery for 1 year 11 mil. Also have the updated rosters with JD on the team now and my team is looking solid for a potential division run. Gonna be a fun year

[@FranchiseGaming]

Sounds like a great build!

[@petepyeatt6909]

Great clip. Franchise mode is my fave.

[@FranchiseGaming]

Mine too!

[@wingzie_3422]

So glad to see you back homie, missed these. Looking forward to this and the other channel's franchise

[@FranchiseGaming]

ON THE WAY! Thank you for the love and support!

[@daddgamer]

one of the best series on all of youtube. looking forward to what you do with this team. So many terrible contracts

[@FranchiseGaming]

So many bad ones! We'll get them out of here piece by piece. Except Lindor and Nimmo. We're stuck with those for a while.

[@brayden9091]

Love you franchise first time I ever watched you was years ago when you started your madden 20 redskins franchise so I'm so happy you back 😊❤

[@FranchiseGaming]

@@brayden9091 I'll definitely play it and likely stream it on twitch. No idea if it'll be something I do on YT though

[@brayden9091]

@@FranchiseGaming ok

[@kevinob2114]

You should use no pci/pitching meter so that the gameplay relies more on the players ratings and development, could make it a little more immersive as well. Other than that great vid, very entertaining I’ll be looking forward to watching in the future.

[@FranchiseGaming]

Maybe someday. Right now, I find the game challenging enough. I'm on the road to playing on legend-legend. As you can see I'm between HOF and HOF+ on both hitting and pitching. So I don't mind NOT doing it that way.

[@Dragon-td1xz]

this warms my heart.. my only chance to see my team succeed lol

[@FranchiseGaming]

HAHA well hopefully we do ya proud!

[@tclink24]

Love the selection and can’t wait to see what you do with the team!! Hopefully you can get Lindor looking like his old self again

[@FranchiseGaming]

I'll need to! The man is going to be around for YEARRSSSS

[@laytonstauffer6659]

Good opening day! Excited to see how the team comes together and what the long term direction will be for some players.

[@FranchiseGaming]

Got to see how some of these expensive guys play

[@raiderbear1]

Awesome work mate

[@FranchiseGaming]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@chimpinaneckbrace]

Just a reminder - the Mets are still paying Bobby Bonilla $1.19 million a year and will continue to do so for the next eleven years. Amazin'

[@FranchiseGaming]

Yup. Well aware. And it will factor in.

LOL we're gonna do our best Narwhal!😎

[@crimsontide1980]

Just bought this game the other day, i always play about 10 exhibition games before starting my franchise so I can get all my settings and sliders dialed in. Not sure why, but I'm struggling more than normal at the plate so far. Im almost always early or late swinging on every pitch, very few have I timed just right. I generally strike out about 5 or 6 times a game with the past The Show games but I'd say I'm averaging striking out about 9 times a game so far. Still love the game just wish I could get my timing down like I have with the past games.

[@FranchiseGaming]

Odd cause I've personally had a faster start than normal. Usually with my hitting I hover between All Star and HOF and grind my way to Legend mid season. This game, I've started HOF and haven't been under it

[@crimsontide1980]

@@FranchiseGaming I'm thinking most of my problems stem from going back to play the older The Show games again while waiting on MLB 24. Been playing mainly the PS3 titles again, MLB 09-16 and the pitches come at you way faster in those games than the newer ones. I've had to jump the fastball and offspeed sliders up almost all the way to replicate the older games. I was swinging early on 99 MPH fastballs until tweaking the sliders lol. I did much better last night, played a game before bed and was hitting much better. I usually play on All Star, I'm not good enough to play on Legendary 😅

[@SplooshNoonley]

I'm hyped for this

[@FranchiseGaming]

Thank you! Will be looking forward to seeing you around the comments!

[@oliverward3413]

Great video, just want to know what roster do you use

[@FranchiseGaming]

I used my own roster that I uploaded to the vault. Mentioned it in my top 10 teams to rebuild video. However, at this point, the roster update has hit and mine is a bit obsolete minus the changes I made to minor Leaguers

[@cracker_jacks6855]

great video franchise gaming! i was wondering if you could make a video like you did last year where you walk through one season of franchise?

[@FranchiseGaming]

I probably will at some point. But those videos take a bit to plan and make and I'm in the process of moving so don't expect it SOON but I'll do what I can!

[@cloveraquario]

The Mets? That's an interesting choice but i kinda like it. Excited to see how this goes, and at least its not the other team in New York.

[@FranchiseGaming]

😂 well I did As last year and it was cool to moneyball it. This is the other approach. Yes, we have money BUT I'm not looking to stack up awful contracts

[@NathanRhwmf]

good series :)

[@FranchiseGaming]

Thank you!

[@raiderbear1]

Fantastic opening day W

[@FranchiseGaming]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@moccosceen]

Got excited about this then is thinking just like cohen with not paying Alonso😪

[@FranchiseGaming]

For one, I'm not sure what you mean. For two, if you're coping about me not wanting to pay a pure power hitter who doesn't provide much in the field or contact wise and is 29 going on 30 and I don't want to give him a long term contract, I think you just want the Mets to be the Yankees. Which, I am not going to build like that.

[@SplooshNoonley]

You could argue Lindor was snubbed an AS nod in '22 and '23

[@FranchiseGaming]

He had a much better case in '22. '23 he was hitting .239 which is rough

[@SplooshNoonley]

@@FranchiseGaming that's a good point, he kinda turned it on in 2nd half.

[@FranchiseGaming]

@@SplooshNoonley yea at the break, he was not hitting well in 22. In 23 he was a bit better but still hard to have the best SS numbers

[@koppel4468]

Don’t let Pete go!

[@FranchiseGaming]

It's gonna depend on what the market is. I'm not going to put another long term contract out to a 30 year old strapping my plans for years to come

[@222vlogs]

As a Mets fan, please turn it around.

[@FranchiseGaming]

You have my word.

[@scrubberducky5003]

Is the custom roster you made under “Franchise Gaming” in the vault? I haven’t had time to check yet and was just curious

[@FranchiseGaming]

No space but yes.

[@FranchiseGaming]

Also, must warn you, my dum dum brain put created Mets prospect Ryan Clifford at 1B (where he belongs) when apparently the game had him at LF...so there will be 2 of them. I think mine is more accurate to his last year stats but...you can change one of the names to whatever and be fine.

[@zuluhawk]

I chose the A's last year, man that shit was rough lol.

[@FranchiseGaming]

I had A's as well last year. Playlist is on the channel. Had a lot of fun with it but a little pissed because I felt like I left the complete story unfinished because Madden came out and I won't do the same this year.

[@zuluhawk]

@FranchiseGaming Yea I moved them to Vegas and got them alot better, was fun times.

[@justinschrank4806]

Did they fix the progression/regression system?

[@FranchiseGaming]

I was told that the regression system should work where guys regress at 33 and beyond unless they are putting up great numbers. Not sure how true it is though because this is legit my first franchise video and progression/regression isn't something I'm going to notice until seasons in.

[@justinschrank4806]

@@FranchiseGaming it is a game ruining problem. Players regress drastically after about 7 service years. Trout is a 60 overall by the 36

@@justinschrank4806 You do realize most players aren't great at 36 years old right?

[@FranchiseGaming]

I didn't say I wasn't going to spend. When did I say that? Because I don't want to pay Alonso? I don't want to pay a guy that doesn't hit his weight and isn't a defensive superstar who is going to be 30 a long-term deal so that means I'm not gonna spend any money huh? EDIT: I legit also said we're gonna take Steve Cohen's money and spend it RIGHT.
