MLB The Show 18 declared it will eliminate Online Franchise Mode this year. The studio clarified this resulted from the modifications made for the game's network code, which has been revamped to steer clear of online issues that have plagued the series for several games now. But fans still aren't pleased with the latest developments.

At a post made on the game's official website, agents for MLB The Show announced that so as to prioritize"the stability and rate of our online infrastructure for MLB The Show 18" Online Franchise mode needed to be trimmed. "This wasn't an easy decision to make and we understand some of you will be disappointed with this particular change, but we think focusing on continuing to increase our online operation was the right priotiy for Your Display 18."

The wording that it had been this year's unique online overhaul which led to Online Franchise Mode's cut led some fans to believe that the door is available for the way to return in next year's iteration of the match, MLB The Show 19. But plenty of fans have reacted negatively to the information, even those who don't actually play Online Franchise.

On reddit, anger has taken ahold of commenters, but it mostly feels like indignation out of non-Online Franchise Mode MLB The Show 18 players responding in sympathy. "Wow. I never played with Online Franchise but I know people who pretty much could only play this manner," wrote one commenter. "Somewhat scummy of [San Diego Studios] with significantly less [than] a month until launch and some MLB The Show 18 players have pre-ordered the game for this particular mode and they just drop this bombshell."
