Highlights:
- All cards are grindable -- Does this mean No collection rewards?!?
- "In fact, we've added more ways to earn some of the most difficult cards from previous versions" -- A way to grind BR packs outside of BR?!?
- No DH in DD "this year"
- Moments are back and are a "core feature"
- New Card Art, New card Series, including this one:
- Same Marketplace for all platforms, all gens.
- Roster updates remain weekly
- Attribute updates TBD (weekly or biweekly)
- No new pre-built stadiums (They're relying on Stadium creators to fill the voids)
- "The Prestige System has been completely revamped"

I agree with SaveFarris about the more ways to earn difficult cards likely referring to BR or World Series cards. There was a decent amount of negativity regarding the long line of 1 million stub orders this past year. I hope they have found a good balance.
I assumed the market would be combined, but that was a constant question on the forum over the past few weeks so I'm glad that cleared things up.
Also, since when can we include pictures within posts?
-
You probably always could. I just had to reverse engineer it to figure out how.

ARodArod is the only other one I see possibly being in this years game. I think this will be more of a "club" or milestone series than anything (500 HR club, 3000 H, 300 wins, 3000 k's, triple crown etc

Imagine if Joe Dimaggio gets a milestone card "56 Game Hit Streak" and he's the final big legend reveal tommorrow / AL Collection reward.

ARodYeah - I suspect it will include 30/30 as well and potentially other milestones as 40/40 by itself wouldn’t have enough cards for a series.
-
I don't think that series is just a 40/40 club series to have just 3 or 4 cards I think it's a "club" series so we will see 30/30 guys and 300 strikeouts in a season. The 300 strikeouts in a season could spawn 5 or 6 cards with the active players and legends that are in the game now Kershaw, Mad Max, Verlander, Walter Johnson, Pedro, Feller. That said I think you need some BIG name guys for that series so a Big Unit card for 300K season would be
-
This has huge potential.

Unlikely. I interpret it as there being more ways to make stubs/earn cards. Maybe it they add other ways to earn WS/Flawless rewards (although that kills incentive to work to WS/Flawless outside personal satisfaction). Obviously will need to wait until tomorrow for more deets.

I think its a milestone/"rare" (or hard to accomplish) feat type club -- similar to what you're noting. A few notibles
40/40 Club (likely only Soriano at this point)
Triple Crown winners (Miggy, Mantle, Ted Williams, Gehrig, Foxx, Hornsby, and a few others)
300 strikeouts in a season (quite a few can be used between current/legends)
300 wins in a career
4HR games
Perfect game throwers? (Cy Young, Catfish Hunter, Dennis Martinez are all in the game and opens a door for quite a few legends -- Randy Johnson, Cone, Wells, Halladay, Felix)Some other achievements might be like: HR in first career AB (theres quite a few current players), Players who hit for cycle, HR streak (a few had 6+ straight games that are in the game) etc

All cards are grind able: Doubt they get rid of BR/RS only cards. No way you can grind out if these modes for these cards because it would tank the market. But interested to see what they mean.
Prestige System Revamped: Possible offline stats?
-
Yeah, these may be milestone type cards that are seasons worthy of note but did not earn those players actual awards the year they happened.

I am of the same mind. They may actually consider winning a BR run grinding. Hard to make assumptions without knowing their definition of grind.
