Online players have events, RS and BR
Offline players have showdown, MTO, conquest, moments, play vs cpu
You can argue that those offline things get repetitive, which is true, but it's not like those online modes don't get repetitive at times to.
I do agree prestiging offline should be a thing, not arguing with you there, but they have added a lot of offline stuff each month, there has been plenty of content, both offline and online.
I agree they added some good stuff. BUT All the higher end cards are basically earned through? .. Online. The Rarer Cards.. Online. Should people who's internet is not as good and Latency issues prevent you from earning some of the same higher end rewards?
Are most of the higher end cards earned that way?
I'd argue affinity has provided way better cards than any WS or event rewards so farI actually don't have any cards on my main squad that were gotten through an online reward, literally not one

releasing stuff that people complete in one day
That is because people treat it like a race.
As an offline player it feels like there is more to do in this years game than ever before.
We pretty much have everything we had last year plus
Showdowns
Player Programs
POTM Programs.
Evolution Programs
Multiple stages of team affinityShoot the sheer number of new moments they dropped for the Affinity 1-3 stages could keep me going a long time if I wanted to do them.

Fiber quality internet is no picnic online either. IJS. I have listed a ton of issues I run into on a normal basis.

As of 7/6/2019, SDS had released 416 Flashbacks and Legend cards for MLBTS2019. 21 of which were 99s and 230 were diamonds.
As of today, SDS has released 456 Flashback/Legends. 38 are 99s and 384 are diamonds.
If you're complaining about content, you're doing it wrong.

Remove check swings and magical hangers and I'm happy.

Real life pitches hang and check swings can be an art..You are still at the mercy of "umps" and I use that term loosely. The frequency of hangers can be taken down a notch. Know what's funny? I can feel em coming at that.. Its not cause I'm enlightened or at highest Chakra or my 33rd level.. Neither is it my 32nd then 33rd veteran which leads into my brain stem, vibrating [PAUSE] with the earths intensity from Brooklyn NY to the pyramids of Egypt.. Naaaa.. Its programmed like most you sheep.

He’s not complaining about content. He’s complaint that it’s only attainable through online methods. (Not picking a side in this scenario, just clearly up his main point)

I would add this:
For offline players to gain prestige points for the player they want to upgrade you must be in legendary mode to earn the points. What I would not want to happen is for it to become to easy to just play on rookie mode then it doesn’t feel like you earned the reward.However, I have played against teams on line that say “1 hr 4 Cody and I quit.” Meaning once you give this person the HR they will quit the game cause they just wants point to upgrade the card. Cheesy but it happens, so allowing for players offline to earn points would be awesome but don’t make it so easy that it is not special when you get the reward. My 2 cents for whoever cares. I love the game does it have its negatives sure but way more positives.

Then lets make it so that online players who use the 1 HR And I Quit method get no stats if they quit the game.
I mean, I don't want it to be too easy so that it's not special when you get the reward......

Ok.. So seems content is slow. I can understand that considering the working environment SDS has to deal with. But releasing stuff that people complete in one day then they go back to conquest or CPU games or March to October cause lets face it Affinity is the ONLY choice for a HUGE chunk of people that have bad internet whether it be. Router is in another part of the house. Landlord won't upgrade lines... people living outside of town (in my case) Latency = Fastball on AS = Looks like I should be hitting the ball BUT I am always late. SO that pretty much makes prestiging an absolute BUST for me. So the game has gone from equality to benefiting all online players... I mean they have events / ranked season / battle royal and a better chance of prestiging. So that leaves us "bad connection or crappy internet people with what?" We can play conquest everyday.. and grind out affinity... MLB players should not be forced to play online games to be rewarded. MLB you said.. Play the game YOUR way! That was your new slogan. I would rather grind out triple the amount of stats on veteran etc.. OFFLINE then attempt to play ONLINE. I have seen many people post about this yet. You released Affinity ... GUESS what each one needs ONLINE to prestige. Conquest (Stronghold defenders is wrong). MTO is fun but who wants to play that 24/7 especially since you do not get after game rewards very often. People with Poor or bad internet should NOT be punished and should not be able to complete some of the ONLY new stuff added to the game! I am not the only one stressing this point. Don't let it fall upon deaf ears! Least give people a chance to enjoy the game the WAY they WANT to PLAY! That was your goal? Your Slogan!
For the rest of yous hope you are enjoying the game despite the situation surrounding us... Game On.
Dehvid!mate the unhappy just love to vocalize - there are tons who love the game

People tend to forget that the posters on this board represent a tiny fraction of the game's overall player base. For every disgruntled community member who spends their days ranting about how much they hate the game, theres thousands of others out there who are totally content with it and either dont know about this site or dont feel the urge to post. If every single person registered on here immediately stopped buying the game, the dip in sales wouldnt be significant enough for SDS to even care. The community dramatically overexaggerates its importance.

I by no means want it to be easy... I mean [censored].. make it a LONG Grind. I mean I don't even care if they make the stats 4 times as many on veteran or all star. So long as it is still achievable for offline players. I am not horrible. I had 3 people rage quit when I hit a homerun... my latency is NOT always bad.. about 80% of the time. I am 14 and 22 which is by no means good. I can pitch well enough to keep me in games. I got harassed by 3 of the people that did lose to me.. as we were playing.. was called multiple names.. was told I buy all my cards... Yes I have completed The collections. got my last card last night.. and that was only cause I pulled a Gerit Cole as an after game reward! (Which was odd... surprising.. pleasantly surprising) I am not saying make this game easier for offline players.. but least make it so we are not forced to play "online" games to complete the game. I been playing this game since 2010 and love it.. the content has been good all things considering.

While I agree the people who post are a very small percentage of players, most people agree the game has deteriorated over the years. Franchise, RTTS, everything has been neglected just for the sake of DD and extra stub purchases. Ridiculous animations not fixed, basic problems in franchise not addressed, there's a pretty long list
