Can we scrap Moments next year

This sounds a lot like - "I don't like them. Force everyone to play the modes that I enjoy to get rewards"
I strictly play DD offline. Topps Now Moments and POTM moments are the only real way, other than the inning programs, that I have to earn decent cards.

If you hate the moments now you’ll be even less happy come Extreme…..
I didn't even do all the extreme moments last year. I did conquest and showdown. I completed a few of the full game moments, but that Yelich and Gerhig moments were absolutely brutal. I could never get a good pitch to him so I figured I didn't need Lou that bad. lol

Moments are funny.
I was doing the June POTM moments and literally every single moment was done on the first try - I even went 5-7 with Correra and did his 3 game moments in a single game.
I get to Schwarber and it took me like 50 tries. Multiple robbed home runs, homeruns barely going foul, PP line outs right at every fielder. I was literally about to break my controller when I decided to try one last time. I get to the last game needing 1 homerun and 2 xbh. I hit the HR in my second at bat and I get to my last at bat needing a xbh. Of course, that left handed side arm throwing b@ast@rd of a pitcher is pitching and I get this rinky-dinky double by hitting past third and past the shift.
It always comes down to the last freaking at bat!!!
I'm still on Schwarber like you after busting through the rest, also nailing Correa in the 1st game. Things that make you go hmm!
Haha, thanks. I also got the 7 xbh with Bichette last year in a single game. I have no freak clue how I did it, but I just lined up every single hit that game and got lucky that my team won like 26 to zero or something which gave me 7 at bats that game.

First try of the day and ran through this moment. Thank God

I like the moments. But I agree with the people saying that it should be an inning to win a game or an at bat. And for pitching it should be no more than an inning or 3 tops since pitching goes pretty quick. Pick up a save or w/e for relievers and finishing off a game or whatever for a SP if need be. The win a game in 3 innings or some of the 6+ xbh are excessive.
-
Not a fan of the multiple inning pitching moments, but anything else is fine. And comically easy since the beginning of last year. I am sure most of us see nothing wrong with moments. They have already dumbed them down to as easy as can get, kinda taking out some of the fun.

I think moments are a good concept. My problem is with the execution. I really don’t appreciate how the moment difficulty is completely misleading. I want veteran to be really veteran, and not veteran with sliders maxed out against me.
Take today’s daily for an example. It’s four total bases vs Pedro with my ballplayer. I went into custom practice vs Pedro and am ripping the ball all over the park with live series cards. I have to increase the difficulty to HOF before I am as late on the fastball as in the moment.
Now, I don’t have a problem with moments being challenging, but I do have a problem with SDS saying something is veteran when it is not.

I'll be happy when I don't even touch it like last year.

Like WTF. Let me bang my head against the wall until the game decides when I finish.
There is a specific reason you can't see feedback in Moments and that's because what you do doesn't matter. CPU defenders making no look catches with their back turned to the infield and robbing homeruns with ease.
It's NBA Jams with a baseball. Boom-Shaka-Laka.
im with ya buddy
maybe replace Moments with some other new online play

Ok officially shutting this topic because everyone wants moments to stay

lol moments is PTSD i get just no THRILL out of it - not like online which i love

I don’t mind moments. The only thing I would change is make the pitching moments shorter or put them in certain scenarios. The variety they have now are just boring and tedious. There’s nothing more annoying than being required to get 10+ Ks and give up no more than 2 hits or 2 runs and failing at like 9 Ks. That or not being able to miss any bats no matter what you throw.
Also if RBIs aren’t going to be a requirement in a moment, then stop clogging up the bases with conservative base runners.
-
My honest opinion on moments? They can stay, but sds needs to give offline players options to accomplish things. Let's use player programs as an example. You can get half of it done with online stat missions, but if you don't play online better hope you enjoy moments cause you have to do them all. Why not give offline stat missions as an option? Make them higher, like 50 hits with Cubs players or something.
Moments are fine for things like Topps Now, they're fine as parts of others programs, but they shouldn't be basically the only way to acquire rewards offline. That is the problem and it's only been getting worse since 19.
