No way i'll finish first inning
-
i work from 7am to almost 7pm including the trip home so i dont get to start until late in the day.....when the servers crash. Im in the same boat on wondering if i will finish. I think im at like 220k right now, still gotta do the new conquest map. I could have finished a good bit of it last night, but the game servers crashed in the middle of me doing the beat SD on allstar part of the street program and so it didnt count any of my progess on it, so had to redo it.

I have about 210,000 XP. Really hoping to work at it this weekend. I think if I knock out both player programs and the Umbrella map I could get to 300 XP but i probably won't make it to the bosses.
Definitely do the player programs and umbrella like you plan to.
In conquest play as many games as you can (or feel like) rather then sim them. 3 ing. games don't take long.If need be play every game vs CPU on rookie to make sure you win (higher of course for more xp). 3 ing. games will get you something like 1.5k each game on rookie. Might be more. I didn't ever play below Veteran so not exactly sure).
The vs. CPU on Rookie must be at least 8k per game (again only played higher but Veteran is 9-10k+ each game. Of course those are 9 ing. games but I remember it was more xp then playing 3 conquest games.Yah I fully intend to do just this but I work from 7:00 AM (out of the house by 6:45) until 4:30 pm (not home until around 6) so the last 2 days the server crashing at 6 PM pacific has really made it hard to make any progress, hopefully this evening is better because I would love to get a bunch of games in before 10 PM.

My son will be here in less than two months. I'm not ready for the changes I'm going to undergo. The selfish part of me is starting to reveal itself. It's not pretty.
you'll survive! He'll sleep a lot and you can't breast feed so you got that going for you! Good Luck!
Thanks man I've already been threatened with bottle duty so I don't think I'm safe.
You will enjoy that experience more than you think

Luckily I have a "work from home" day tomorrow so there will be some grinding unless an opp to get 18 holes in shows up. so we'll see. Can start once I get the 10 year old to school. That's me out the door by 8 ish home 4ish then it's baseball practice for both almost every night of the week and tourney's every weekend.

It's not that I really even want the bosses because I'm just going to sell them for stubs towards Trout anyway and I'm sure I'll be able to get them later on in the year.
However SDS should have realized this might be a problem for people who have a busy schedule.

Congrats brotha that’s awesome. There will still be time for video games trust me. But will be more like s e x at that point. Play when you have spare time

Full stop, I’d likely be there already if not for losing the 1st inning showdown and beating San Diego due to server crashes and if xp counted.
I’m at 235k but should have 70k more from those two...add in xp not working and I’m probably short over 100k xp right now.
It’s complete trash, and SDS isn’t doing ANYTHING to fix it.

First time I was down 15-13 and lost. Hit into 3 dps.
Second the down 15-11 bear it and Sefer crashes. Still waiting in a response.
SDS just needs to drop 150k Xp to everyone and call it a day.

Man that sucks!! I finally got it last night! went in down 5. just played it taking pitches. Got lucky and Kike H. went yard to win it! Fernando can suck a fat one.
Now I'm having trouble hitting a dinger...one dinger with guess who....Babe F'n Ruth!!! The Colussus of Clout, Sultan of Swat...only has warning track power...FML

Been playing for 4-5 years now, have wife, kids, job all that BS and I've never not completed an Inning program. I'm at like maybe a bit over halfway. Am i the only one in the same boat?
P.S. That umbrella conquest can take a long walk off a short cliff
P.P.S Where is the sound on perfect swings off the bat?? Crappy contact makes better sound.Also Moments are the bane of my existence and i would relish the opportunity to punch whoever came up with them in the throat!
Ok, I'm done. Go Braves!!!

Braves lost to my bluejays

They sure did. we got serious problems to fix. Losing D'Arnoud is going to hurt big time and the bullpen is one big dumpster fire. Acuna can't carry the whole dang team all season. that sure ain't gonna work.
-
I've basically resigned myself to the fact that I won't be getting any innings program rewards this year unless I buy them. Such a crappy system for those of us who really can only get in a couple hours a day. Focusing on Moments and TA to build my team.
-
Just finished yesterday .... now getting pointless xp for the next couple of days lol
-
I maxed out the first inning XP the other day and I have played quite a bit but not every day even. I have pretty much all of the moments and all of the conquests done. I guess from my experience, make sure you're doing all the single player mode stuff and not just playing ranked etc.
-
actually finished it today. surprise surprise...one of those wonderful "work from home days". showdown helped...which took twice and got some moments, etc. done on saturday. never thought i'd get there with less than a week and was just at half way...but whaddaya know. i'm sure there will be others that i don't make. Fernando is pretty good too! screwball is filthy

I've got about 100 hrs of play in and closing in on 600k.
Maybe let your wife and kids play vs cpu while you are working to max out your XP gains?
But seriously it would be alot easier if double xp was actually working.
Ha! The kids ( 2 boys) used too but now that the game is on Xbox, they have their own Diamond Dynasty and won't do anything to help me. They are struggling to complete stuff enough too as it is.
Wait so where the helping you with the inning programs the last 2 years? If so where you actually completing them or was it a team effort
Honest question cause if you don't make the program and your boys don't help that could be the variable here

No, not really, they would do some moments here and there when i got ready to throw a controller spending 30 min trying to hit a f'n HR with somebody or trying to hit a double and a single...maybe play a little bit of conquest here and there.
I got everything pretty much on my own, i'd play when they'd leave for school before i left for work or after everyone went to bed and I knew that i wasn't getting any action, i'd stay up for a bit..

It takes practice, but if you hold your son in the crook of your arm, utilize the arm of the chair for support, and use your chin properly you can have your hands free and still play. I wouldn’t recommend playing online, but knocking out moments or conquest games would be good. Both my kids “played” an awful lot of madden with me when they were born lol. Congrats on the kid, it’s a heck of a ride.

That when I get all my grinding done, an I'm not going to try and fool anyone that is most nights
