Pitching and hitting the ball may become impossible, let alone landing a home run. Here is how to check the MLB The Show 24 server status.
How to check MLB The Show 24 server status
It is only natural – unfortunately – that any game with any type of online functionality suffers from connection issues when it is released. Currently, MLB The Show 24 is undergoing its early access period and players are already experiencing connectivity issues due to server issues from the devs side. However, if you are reading this in the future and experiencing some network errors, then check out the sites below to see if your internet is not the one responsible, at least this time:
- Visit the official MLB The Show X handle. This is the main source of information for any updates as well as server issues or scheduled maintenance. Here is a very recent post as of the writing of this post that illustrates this step.
- Join the official MLB The Show discord server. To keep the community and the devs connected, the MLB The Show discord server will keep you updated and knowledgeable on any upcoming or current issues that may be plaguing the game.
- Check the MLB The Show Downdetector page. While this is arguably the only unofficial way of finding out server issues, what Downdetector does is show user reports which will oftentimes be very useful for players.
If server issues are confirmed on behalf of San Diego Studio, then all you play online is the waiting game. However, if other players are enjoying the game and you feel like Squidward watching Spongebob and Patrick having fun, then you can do the following to hopefully restore your connection:
Troubleshooting steps
- Restart your Router: this will allow internet bandwidth to be freed up and potentially solve any bugs that may be occurring in the background.
- Reboot your console to hopefully fix any issues that your device may be encountering.
- Close and reopen the game so that you can connect to the servers from scratch.
- Disable your VPN to prevent any connection slowdown.
- Use an Ethernet cable to maximize network stability.
- Reinstall the game.
