    My issue is they spent the 1st half of the stream screaming choice, then evolution comes up and it brings back programs that are achieved through online only. That is not choice. Then prestige bosses and again online only, this is not choice. I loved everything and then they went Bungo on this content.

    Other than Prestige bosses, what else could "only be achieved online"?

    Evolution cards allow your to complete programs that can only be completed grinding online only activities.

    It didn't appear to me that the Evolution programs required online play. The Eckersley one, for example, had the diamond reward at 50 points. Stage 1, which is all moments, gives 30 points. Stage 2 has a few options. There's an online mission for 10 points, an offline mission for 10, an exchange for 10, or a set of moments for 10. So the online mission is not required for 50.

    Wow, I missed that first part. That really annoys me. I also hate the no quickselling/exchanging locked card. Absolutely NO ONE asked for that.

    The only reason you can’t exchange or quick sell is to make people buy more cards nothing more nothing less, I don’t even really care about the quick sell thing, to me not being able to exchange locked in cards is a huge L. Basically what you have now is 40 dormant cards that you can’t do anything with, quash said people were abusing the system by locking in and exchanging, my question is how is that abusing the system? You don’t get to keep the cards after exchanging, you’re only abusing the system if the system is you have to buy more cards

    That's not true, they specifically said there was a choice, either exchanging cards, or online play in that particular thing. Online is not a requirement.

    Most monthly cards weren’t worth it last year, but they really won’t be worth it this year

    Yup, that is what I saw. The only online only I could see was prestige.

    I mean, sure it’s an obvious money grab, but considering the quantity of free content they give out (assuming similar to 19), I’ll let this one slide.

    The collection one doesn't really bother me all that much. The Prestige Diamonds being locked behind online grinds irked me though. Online already basically had a monopoly on BR rewards, why give them another with this?

    Listen fellas it's only right certain cards be obtained through online DD..It is a different mode that plays against real competition..What's wrong with having different cards for a whole different mode..Actually it's a whole different game..Def not in a controlled environment, unless you consider the room you're playing in just that..Another analogy is a game being on rails guiding you. The you play GTA and see or WOW and see a wide open world where you'll meet and go against a whole world of competition. So I see nothing wrong with having different cards and or sets I'll be grinding for the same cards you will have and building a perfect team for me to beat some real people..Not knocking off line play at all either my fellow nationers. Just saying theres another side to this game and it's only right it has access to different cards.

    It seems like with the amount of time they spent coming up with new content, they could have come up with a way to give the offline players a way to grinds for the prestige players as well. Even if it's not the same players as online, jack up the the grind and give the offline crowd a chance at similar cards.

    I agree, you should have certain online cards. In fact, you already have them. BR Flawless cards. As stated before, the average player cannot obtain them without spending real money

    I was a little underwhelmed by the Prestige Diamonds. Only +3 per attribute? For an Online H2H stat grind, I expected it to be much more significant an upgrade.

    I am OK with no more quick selling collected cards. I never quick sold them because I felt wrong and liked being able to go back and look at my collections.

    I honestly don't have a problem with any of those.

    1. I play a lot of online so personally, the prestige thing doesn't affect me. I could see myself being upset if I were an offliner.
    2. Having a giant card collection is a common thing to do irl. I don't have a problem with with the fact that it forces you to perma-collect cards that you lock in. It just makes the decision of whether or not to lock in a card a bit harder.
    3. The three batter minimum is now an irl baseball rule. We're all gonna have to get used to it. It may be a bit of a learning curve in BR, but it should spice up a mode that has been rather static for the past 4 years.

    I wish they would of gave the option for offline stat grind. It’s one of the biggest things I wanted. I really don’t play online that much so if that bums me out. If they would of made it be the players full season stats instead of half I would of loved it. Heck, even 2 seasons, I don’t care. Just don’t make me go online to do it. I know I’m not as good as most of you guys on here. I like to just play this game casually and unwind and play while watching Netflix or something.
