    Please SDS, please stop with timed innings programs. Even with Quad XP, there is very little chance of me making it to the bosses.

    This will be the third one in a row I've missed out on.

    Can you just stop putting a time limit on everything, please.

    I know I will get swamped with, "it's so easy to get there", but it's actually not if you have a number of commitments and not a lot of time to play.

    I know it won't matter to anyone, but I'm seriously considering making this my last version of the show. My time is my time, SDS, and it is valuable to me. I'm sick being timed and made to feel rushed on something that should actually just be for enjoyment.

    Edit: It has been pointed out to me that this might come across as a bit whiny and that I have a sense of being cheated. I will clarify; I would simply like to be able to grind for the bosses in my time, not SDS's time, much like Team Affintiy, where you can pick and choose what you work towards at any given time.

    For the 12th inning they should just have all the inning bosses as rewards in a program that goes to 33 million XP.

    Edit: Oh and have really crazy repeatable collections like "Collect 5 free agents for 100k XP".

    From memory, there were eleven last year. Might have been twelve. I seriously can't remember.

    It would probably be best for you, if this were your last show. You obviously don't have the time for this type of game, and there are plenty of others out there, where you don't have to really invest any time into it.

    I get why there are more than 9, but it makes more sense if there was only 9, and put other 99 cards for collections, packs(not headlines, content packs) stuff like that. I feel like that would make the game better. IMO

    Wow, that's not elitist at all. lol

    But you're probably right. If your time isn't that valuable to you that you can be guided by a game timeline, that's fine I guess. Take it from someone that actually died and was brought back, it's not. After eight years of playing, this game might not be for me anymore.

    I get it, I wish they would do what they do with Team Affinity and the Monthly programs and just leave them for people to finish at their own time. I do like the competitive urgency of it, but I happen to have a little more time on my hands and have definitely been in situations where I couldn't enjoy a video game even once a week.

    ?? I didn't play opening weekend. Missed 4 days being in the hospital a couple weeks back. Didn't play this past weekend.
    I reached the bosses earlier today. As little as I've played and got to there.without doin the last inning collection...pretty sure anyone can.

    They did it that way last year and you know what happened?

    People b*tched and complained because they were "forced" to complete the collections and conquest and such. (Because "live" XP only went to the current inning, not previous ones.)

    SDS literally can't win.

    Are you protesting that you can’t have whatever you want in life for free? Should they just give you all the best players when you log in? Would you prefer they put them behind a massive pay wall? What would be the point of playing the game if you got everything for nothing?

    Oh really? Yeah, you are right with your last comment. People seem to find fault in their every move. I'm still super new to this game so other than the server issues, I've been pretty stoked about everything else.

    I do like that XP relates to the current inning that there is a certain timetable to finish it. Maybe the comment about the final inning or an extra inning having all the boss choice packs available would be cool. I tend to go back and buy all the bosses anyway and it's hard for me to be the barometer, I have plenty of time at the moment.

    Your not missing out on anything, unless you really like a certain player. You can do the same, sometimes better with a card that isn't a 99. Build your team the way you like it, don't stress over having the highest rated, latest, greatest.

    These people are out of control. Complaining they don’t get free cards easily enough when they are already easy to obtain….complaining about having to redo four base moments with a strike zone sized pci because the pitcher throws balls.

    Next year SDS would have to give away everything at the start of the season and put the ball on a tee for every moment to please these people.

    LOL at all the people with they are easy to obtain. I have had time this week to play 4 conquest games, literally. If your time is not valuable to you, that's your business. Time is the only thing that has true value.

    As for the clowns indicating that I want things for free, I don't. I want to be able to grind for them in my time, not yours.

    Once again, if your time is not valuable to you, that's fine. Having seen what's on the other side, I value it very differently. Time is all we have.

    As for having something for nothing, what is it to you if they extend the innings and let you grind them at your leisure? It's still time, but at my choosing. I don't want it for nothing, I want it when I can do it. Your argument is quite moronic, and completely baseless.

    I mean the cards are available in the auction house…complete whatever program you want and sell the reward to buy whatever player you missed.

    Your entire first post did have a whining/protesting tone to it like you are being cheated.

    Nope, that was not the intention and I apologise if that is how it came across. I simply would like the option to grind inning bosses at my leisure, not on SDS's clock. I'd like it set up like the team affinity, where you can pick and choose and work towards what you want, or the player programs.

    I don't want anything for free. I just want to be able to achieve it in my time. If people want to complete it quicker, that's fine too. They can make more money flipping I guess.
