Why are Prestige cards tied to Online stats?
-
I look at it like this:
No one is entitled to have every card in the game.
You say you hate playing online (meaning H2H). There are many others who hate playing the CPU; they hate conquest and they hate moments.
Think of how many cards are tied to Conquest and Moments? If the guys that hate playing the CPU want those cards, they have to suck it up and play the CPU.
The flip side of that is, if you want Prestige Diamonds, you have to suck it up and play H2H.
Of course, you could forgo those Prestige Diamonds, and just enjoy the game modes you prefer.
I say this with all due respect. I’m not trying to be a [censored] about it at all. I’m one of the people that hate playing the CPU, and I would complain about having to do so.
But I finally accepted that there are cards that I just won’t get, because I don’t like Moments. It’s simple as that for me.
I hope you find peace and enjoyment with the game, bro.

“Play how you want” unless you just want to Prestige a card, then you have to play exactly how we want you to with absolutely no other options.
And for almost all other programs and missions they give the online/offline option as a nod to this exact point, but then nothing on the prestige. I can also understand the opposite point of the “sb in conquest only by dodgers,” like why?

@loshbomb said in Why are Prestige cards tied to Online stats?:
I think tying prestige to online play is a good idea. If you play offline, +3 in everything probably isn’t that meaningful anyway.
Exactly you could have your prestige guy bat on rookie in the 4 hole load the bases up and then crank a bomb and then quit and get all those stats fast

How about they reward ranked and br players with prestiged cards and everyone else have to grind to earn the same cards. PvP players get a reward that is worthy of their achievements as well as a way to profit. Those that don’t want to grind can buy the card. Doing things this way would prevent cards from being locked behind pvp and give grinders something to achieve.

I like it. Cuz again to each his own, I don’t care to play pvp and others don’t like cpu.

There's a big difference between offline only and online only content. The online only content is usually some of the best in the game (think Ruth last year for example). And, I'm ok with this as that is where their core players (and money) come from. I just don't think it's a 1-1 comparison like you're making it out to be.
Also, for offline only players, it's not just a matter of "sucking it up" for some of us. Between my DSL connection (I live in the sticks and don't have access to cable), and my aging eyes/reflexes, I can't hit online. Yes, I do avoid it because of the morons, but I also avoid it because I tend to strike out or get weak contact every AB.
I'm not too disappointed with not being able to do prestige. I just hope that I will have a chance to get this year's Ruth.

I hear you. But maybe you can help me understand something. Serious question(s) here:
If someone doesn’t like playing other people, and prefers to just play against the CPU, why play Diamond Dynasty at all?
All the cards available in DD can be used in Franchise Mode. You can literally put any player you want on your team. You can even edit their attributes and “prestige” them in a matter of seconds.
You can choose difficulty level, you can adjust sliders; in short, you can customize every aspect of the game to make it the most enjoyable for yourself. So if someone likes playing the CPU, why go through all the trouble of DD at all?

I really enjoy DD. I like the missions, I like the goals, I like the collections. I'm one who's a completion junkie, so I've been grinding March to Octobers for the affinity points in stage 1, then using showdowns to complete stage 2. I've also completed a lot of the programs for the stubs to help me with my collections. This is where offline only gets tough because stub sources aren't that plentiful. I resigned to selling my program rewards to help me here. I also really enjoy conquest.
There is plenty for offline only players to do in DD that can't be accomplished in franchise or Road to the Show.

I get you are asking a serious question here, but man does this seriously discount nearly everything about the mode that is attractive about the mode. Yes, playing the game is fun, but to me, collecting cards, completing programs, collections, working the market to name a few of the things that provide a sense of accomplishment is why cpu people play.
I have said before, I would personally be fine if they had two sets of cards if you wanted to play pvp or cpu only. Understand that will never happen tho.

So it’s the collecting part that people enjoy. It isn’t that the card you earn will improve your team, it’s that collecting a card provides a sense of accomplishment. Ok. I can understand that.
What I don’t understand is, you feel less accomplished if you don’t get every card?
I don’t know, bro. That kind of sounds like a personal hang up. I’m not discounting the way you or anyone else feels about it. I’m just saying that at some point, we have to accept that we aren’t going to get every card.
That is the downside of them releasing more and more cards and more and more game modes and more and more content every year. It makes it near impossible to accomplish everything. And people with the 100% completion, OCD type of thing when it comes to gaming are going to be disappointed when they can’t get everything.

Think I already said this but like with CAPs, make the offline requirement 3x the online requirement. Seems fair to me.

You are hitting on two things at the same time. 1. There isn’t a mode vs cpu where you need a god squad to beat it with your own team, which we have been asking for (ala turn on ranked seasons to cpu controlled dd teams like they used to have, or event type of mode). 2. It isn’t that I would want to prestige EVERYONE for a completionist thing, but like as a Braves fan, would love the option to do chipper.
Ultimately now is miles above other years and SDS won’t please all, so just mild complaints
-
I understand the point of the post, but prestigeing a card is quite literally just for show, to show off online. The only time the +3 attribute bump matters for gameplay is when it moves fielding up a tier(like chipper). The only offline players that are really screwed over are the ones that want to collect em all, but of the 10 players in the entire world that collect every single last card, maybe 1 of those is offline only. To the OCD “I need to make sure every mission is completed” types, just don’t even look at the screen. Its not staring you in the face when opening up the game

I think that’s actually a good idea: A tiered, play vs the CPU mode for rewards. Kind of start against a CPU team of bronzes and silvers on Veteran and then work your way up to playing a G-Squad on Legend for a reward. I think the CPU players would enjoy that.
I don’t think the Reward should be as good as a Ranked Season WS reward but it could be a good card. I probably wouldn’t play that mode but that would be enjoyable to a lot of people.
-
The problem the online stat requirements create is the same one the Pepe grinds created in 17, that people only want the stats and don’t care about RS. Thus, people like me (and we are legion) will stay in regular season in order to grind prestige stats, thus ruining the game and potentially robbing SDS of customers, as new players have to face a bunch of 99 squads.

"What I don’t understand is, you feel less accomplished if you don’t get every card?"
No, and no one said that.

I understand the point of the post, but prestigeing a card is quite literally just for show, to show off online. The only time the +3 attribute bump matters for gameplay is when it moves fielding up a tier(like chipper). The only offline players that are really screwed over are the ones that want to collect em all, but of the 10 players in the entire world that collect every single last card, maybe 1 of those is offline only. To the OCD “I need to make sure every mission is completed” types, just don’t even look at the screen. Its not staring you in the face when opening up the game
Prestige Reggie seems better. Like way better. Offensively and defensively. I just prestiged Mantle, so I can’t speak for him. But Blood Red Reggie is something else man

See blood diamond reggie only seems better on D for me(because he moves up to silver in right). Offensively it could just be placebo. I will say Oswalt is better than the normal diamond because of the +3 to velo and break though. I just don’t see +3 across the board making all that much of a difference
