Dont keep going!! I just won the ALDS and after I won it said it cant authenticate from my console. Unreal

@MathMan5072 said in Any other rewards ?:

The rewards are the affinity. There are no other MTO specific rewards. If you want, you can then take your team and continue a Franchise with that specific team.

If you are just looking to grind affinity and you can do the showdowns easily, then just do the Showdowns.

If you are looking for a more relaxed way to collect affinity, I highly suggest MTO.

Clearly answered my question ! Thanks bro !

NLCS Update!!!!
Invoking the spirit of the 2003 Marlins, the miracle Marlins of 2020 took on the Chicago Cubs.
I easily won the first game 5-4 in 10 innings (started even)
Cruised in game 2 behind Pablo Lopez 5-0 (started up 2)

Now comes game 3 in Miami.
It had all the makings of a typical Miami game. The place was sold out.
Steve Bartman threw out the 1st pitch.
I was trailing 2-0 in the bottom of the 9th and Kimbrel was dealing.
I have trouble with fastballs and he blew away my first 2 hitters. 2 outs and I was dejected. I decided to sell out on the high fastball.
I managed a late swing opposite field base hit by Corey Dickerson. There is hope.
Up stepped Brian Anderson and once again I was selling out on the high fast ball.
1st pitch breaking ball, dot - Strike 1
2nd pitch Fast ball on the edge, an absolute dot 0-2
I foul off 2 pitches and on the 5th pitch of the at bat Kimbrel throws a 99 mph fastball.
PLAKATA !!!! Anderson deposits the ball into the Budweiser stands in left center field. TIED GAME !!!
I have never been more pumped playing this game as I was in that moment.
the whole presentation of MTO only enhanced the moment.
I won the game on a Jorge Alfaro walk off blast in the 10th!!!
Game 4 was the clincher behind a complete game by Caleb Smith 2-0.

The Marlins are going to the World Series!!!
Next up the 110 game winners with the best record in the MLB, the Minnesota Twins.
The small market World Series is on!!!

I’ve had it follow up with another trade offer. However, I also declined one on a different season right near the trade deadline and didn’t receive another in time. Double-edged sword.

It is a grind, but you get the same or more affinity that you do for the regular season.

He was from the angels. I called him up and actually found him easy to use in his player locked game. Threw a sho. I’ll have to check what his season stats ended up being.

Nice! I really like using him.

Just checked. He went 14-1 after being called up and 2-0 In the playoffs.

Could be worse. My average difficulty at the All-Star Break was All Star and now all of my rewards are locked into that level, even though I've been HoF pitching since August and Legend hitting since September. ALDS was just All-Star level rewards (so I get a max of 36 TA points for clearing the playoffs on Legend+ hitting, HoF+ pitching instead of 48).

@davisonkj17 said in March to October Affinity Rewards can’t be redeemed and says I need to connect online and said my PlayStation can’t authenticate it:

has anyone received any response for any of these problems yet!??!

No I haven’t yet.

This is happening to me right now, and I've never disconnected, and never had a notification of such

I ran into the same yesterday and was stunned that I couldn't go to the pen after I lost the no hitter and pitcher was running on fumes. It makes 0 sense why we can't pull him once the no hitter is lost. o_O

Just saw that his might have been fixed in patch 1.07 release last night.

So my son (read: 95% him lol) and I have competed :

Pirates
Yankees
Astros
Padres
Angel's
And two games away from the Nationals

We so completed the beginner and first inning conquest maps.

I have done roughly 65 event games to get 40 event wins and of course a good handful of moments that go along with TA or program players (granderson/woods).

We are close to 500 stars and hoping by jumping into more RS we can claw our way to 600 for the prospects card.

If you’re talking about the first set of affinity points, it’s after the all star break. Around mid July.

Yup. This.

@Spitfirex007 said in Minor league:

Yeah they weren't fully truthful with exact how the system works. I took it as we'd have full control. I've played two seasons with my Mets. (trying to unlock all the bonus stuff) and I've only got to call up a pitcher once in each season. I want to bring D. Smith up.

Dom Smith is simply awesome, I don’t blame you. His return in game 162 last year was one of the most surreal moments in sporting history, right up there with Royce Simmons’s second try in the 1991 Australian Rugby League grand final.

haha I tried that and still somehow failed.

I was down in the series 1-0. Was about to go down 2-0 (I was on All Star + and HOF) I rally back in the top of the 9th and take a one run lead.. Runner on first with one out. I get them to hit a easy ground ball to my shortstop. Of course he has trouble with it. The next person to bat hits a easy fly ball out to my LF. As I'm under the ball I more my stick slightly to adjust to the ball and I get stuck in some weird animation. Ball hits the ground and they my guy can't pick it up. They walk off.

So out of frustration I dropped down to beginner or whatever. Win game 3 easy. Game 4... not a run scored. Every ball I squared up on was a line drive and everything I got deep was just short.

This was my second time playing a season with the Mets. I didn't get any points the second half of my first season because my internet was having issues and dropped once.. It's almost like this game tries to screw you so you can't earn your points.

EDIT: I believe most teams have a thing were you get 5pts for doing 250 innings with players from that team. Just load your DD team with players from the team you need to earn points for. Do a game vs the CPU on rookie. Couple early runs and then breeze though it. Takes what 30 mins to finish a game

9 players for 9 innings is 81. So it take 3 full games + plus a couple extra innings to earn 5 pts. Maybe an hour and half of play time. Compared to 8-10 hours to do a full season on MTO.

@ImDFC said in No-hitter opportunities:

Be lucky. The 4 no hitters they threw me into, the very first pitch in the zone has always resulted in a home run. And one of them , I ended up giving up 8 runs before they pulled me, and got 8 cold, which turned a surefire division win into barely missing the wildcard

Ouch. That’s brutal.
