    I dunno..it gets pretty menotonous, but I do understand the importance of conquest to the offline playing crowd.

    And why would you automatically call it a mode for the offline "crowd?"

    So am i to assume the "online" crowd doesn't play it to gain points for Boss cards? Or the "Online Crowd" never plays it to gain points for the team affinity?

    Get the hell outta here with your poor attempt of trying to split community into online or offline groups. Can't stand people like you that try present themselves as a superior to others. Why because you play MP? The game is Baseball the love of the game is why we all buy it.

    And you even described it as "monotonous" so maybe all the more reason to maybe spruce it up.

    Someones upset about the Nolan Arenado for two potatoes and a used ice cream cone trade.

    I'll let you in on a little secret ok shhhhhh don't tell anyone! I had a family member who is in the HOF and actually played for Cardinals so not bothered by it at all. But lets just keep that between us ok?

    Weird flex but okay

    Maybe but the guy came in trying to bait me with his Arenado comment so i was just letting him know that i have a place in my heart where Arenado went and that it didn't bother me is all.

    Then it was obvious when he said his half brother was babe essentially calling me a liar so i told him have a nice day as i blocked his @Ss right out of my life and good riddance far as i am concerned.

    I try to be nothing but nice but i 'll be damned if someone gonna talk down to me or patronize me that is for the birds.

    Lol relax bro, not worth the energy. Tell us who your HOF relative is though, you poked my interest.

    Sorry i share same last name and don't want to post on web hope you understand. But i will tell you i am in my late 40's and was brought up not to lie. And treat others as i would want to be treated unlike some folks just like to be hateful.

    Anyway this is off topic i made a serious inquiry about a game mode and would like to keep it that way. 🙂

    You didn't actually block me 😞

    I wasn't baiting you at all. I was simply guessing as to why you were so angry with other people. You seem better today, so cheers! Life is short 🙂

    conquest shouldn't be 6 innings that is just simply too long of a grind for really a low diamond a high gold and a 10 pack. Making them 3 innings lets people with other obligations knock out a game easy and maybe 2 if their wife and kid don't notice

    Yeah i agree i was referring to 6 inning only @ strongholds.

    Not really sure what they can do to spruce up conquest, pretty much fine as it is in my opinion. 6 inning games to beat strongholds is too long and it is very dull after a while playing conquest and I'm an offline guy.

    If they would come out with a solo battles type of idea, that would be 1000x better than conquest

    I think it could do with a full rethink. At this point I don't touch conquest as I find it super time consuming and boring.
    There must be other ways of presenting single player?

    Somtimes when i want a new approach to the mode i will set my lineup to match BR parameters. Or if there is an event i will set parameters to event type lineup, since both modes are 3-6 inning games.

    I would just end up using random players I would never use online. The issue is the time consuming phases of conquering the map and the lack of variety in the matches. I think it's just boring.

    I'm curious? Do you play every game of every territory is that why it's time consuming?

    Reason i ask is b/c there are stategies of how to get to west coast fairly quick Montana Idaho area b/c it is the most open area.

    The way it plays right now is it seems like always Boston or Blue jays the last team to beat. Which is why i would like to be able to start somewhere else so i can maybe attack east coast first if that makes sense.

    I think the mode is under utilized which is a shame b/c conquest is also a great way to work on specific team affinity leveling. Which makes me think it isn't that appealing to most reason i made thread.

    i like all the suggestions except maybe the 6 inning one, id still play it even if they did do 6 inning though.

    my biggest change would be maybe the stamina of a pitcher in conquest, especially closers, where you cant even get through the required 3 batters without being in the red sometimes lol.

    Solo battles were a thing that EA created in their DD style modes. You get 4 games per day vs other squads and gain points for how you play and whether you win or lose. There is a leaderboard and each week you get some kind of rewards. They could also allow you to play extra inning games vs other teams that users have created, that would be nice too

    So you read that the things were made by EA so they shouldn't be used because of that? Regardless of EA doing it, squad battles are one of the best things that ever came from them even if their games are trash. I just have an ability to look past the creator to see the product instead of being blind to it due to a bias. To each their own

    Just a shot in the dark, why not have both? Solo battles are quite fun for offline where FULL games actually mean something instead of the grind that conquest is. You get rewards after every game of DD regardless so what's the big deal about a weekly award system? You play online in seasons but don't get your rewards right away until you hit a certain level. You can play a bunch of games with no "reward" in seasons.

    Thats the last ill respond to that though. Solo battles are a fun way to use the whole team, try out players offline with rewards for doing it. I cant see what's not to like. Have a good day

    That's fine if you wanna leave the convo. I was legitimately trying to get you to explain what solo battles were in depth. But you assumed i would shoot the idea down, but fact is i didn't like it based off info given.

    How many weeks? How many teams? What would be the reward structure? What are paramater of your team build? Quick counts on or off? How many innings?What would be difficulty level?

    I am open minded but it's you who did not go into depth about it so i based my thoughts off of info given. So if you wanna get butthurt and leave convo fine, but let it be known i was willing to hear about it. So you to have a great day!
