No more inning bosses?
-
Basically, they combined the inning and TA programs. I don't have a problem with that. But some programs might only be two weeks long? Have to wait to see how this plays out. Either way, I'm not a fan of not just being able to earn all the cards... and one of the two routes is one random. That was the nice part of TA that you would get them all eventually.
-
Innings and TA were basically combined. The 19-21 inning program format was getting a bit stale so a change might not be awful. As for the FOTF cards/ lack of team affinity I'm gonna wait a while before overreacting and calling them EA like everyone else is. On the surface it does look bad though, I won't deny that

Let's look at the whole story here.
Yes inning bosses are gone but so are inning programs which lead to actual featured programs so it changes, next program is 2 of 5 legends.
Yes TA is gone but now everything you do go towards the programs so you are working towards 1 centralized goal.
Yes you don't get all 30 rewards but this will balance and reward those who are smart and obtain stubs to get all 30 rewards and those who like to flip and play the market this program is a dream.
How’s that boot taste?
I don't get the reference
You lick sds boots. Like you're a boot licker. That's what he meant.
Got it, I mean sure I guess I didn't realize embracing a change an seeing how it can be a positive ultimately makes me a kiss A$$ but sure. I am already seeing alot of tears over these changes guess all those "do this on day one" YouTube videos are shoot and we'll all have to put our big boy pants on and figure things out on our own
Changes are great...subtractions not so much. I really hope I'm wrong and that this turns out to be a killer game. Look at my post history and I'm almost always stoked about the content. But there just isn't much going on here.
This happens every year in the prior game everyone hitches their wagon to something they love and it's either removed or changed the next year and it ends up working out.
Was TA fun last year? Yes it was but if you played all year TA 1 was an after though in 3 weeks this will be the same as well only difference is those coming late won't have a chance at it well there is something to be said to reward those who play all year

It just depends how you word it. The first program is TA themed, with many bosses, the first ones non sellable and randomized the second time around sellable and non randomized.
The next program will look nothing like this program, and the program after that will look nothing like either of these two.
A program with 3 cards in one choice pack could easily come back and represent and inning program at some point.
They will most likely bring back all types of things they’ve done throughout the years.
The real difference is finally not everyone is going to all have the same 63 Diamond CFs.
The CHOICE PACK is now an actual CHOICE PACK, not which one do you want before you get the other 4.
I guess where I'm bummed isn't that you can't can't all the cards. SDS has proven they make the cards really easy to obtain over time.
Simply put, there seems to be a lot less to do. TA had 6 seperate programs with various missions and rewards, then you had a huge inning program, player programs and lots of conquests. There also is no Daily Moment reward path and I don't think there are monthly programs, Topps moments...All of that see.s to have been replaced by FotF..
Just relax my man. There isn’t a new conquest because there is never a new conquest at the start. There isn’t a monthly award program… because nobody has won player of the month yet, because the season hasn’t started, which is why there a no topps now cards…
They are effectively doing what they claimed they were last year and combining everything into one program which will change up all the time. They literally said it will never be the same. The third one is a mystery one we need to discover ourselves, we’ve had missions like this before, it’s fun. Last year was great, but you have no idea how much great stuff was left out of last year.
The SDS guys are good at content, I’m not some loyalist that won’t play something else, I play everything, the content team guys hardly miss. They’ll have even better stuff than last year, you’ll just be able to do it however you want and it will seem like “less to do” but it’s really less restraints on how you do it.

The thing is that there was no reason to combine TA and inning programs into one, resulting in much less content. They could’ve done something new with featured programs while not removing one of the best aspects of DD in team affinity. It’s a decision made purely from greed and nothing else. It doesn’t benefit us as players in any way whatsoever, it only benefits SDS by forcing average players to buy overpriced stubs to get what was available for free before.

I definitely hope you're right. The funny thing is, I'm not worried we won't have access to the cards (I give them the benefit of the doubt that they try to make all cards accessible) some of the online changes clearly reflect that. It just looked like a lot less content because of the removal of TA. I will be the first one to say I was wrong because I really enjoy this game and all the content they offer if there's more to it. I just really will miss

Don't get me wrong, if a few months go by and these cards are not given out in other ways, I will completely agree with you. At face value, it is extremely greedy. I would just like to see how things play out first. 90% of the rest of the stream included positive changes. I just don't think SDS is that stupid to completely shoot themselves in the foot with this one thing. Content is the only thing they have over other sports games, I'm willing to give them a chance on this for now. My mindset might completely change by July though

TA.But TA isn't gone it's just a different format, of you played from launch last year TA 1 was done buy the 4th week also you have to remember the game launched almost 3 week later last year so content did need to be condensed a little now it's spread out so we will see a TA 2 style program and an TA3 all star program just in a different style

TA was way to easy last year!! Exchange, exchange exchange get all cards in 2 hours!!
If you really look at what they're doing it's to make you actually have to play the game. Example: World Series reward path not by wins but innings!! Seen alot of complaining about people quitting so they changed it. Play game get rewards!! IJS -

As long as you don't need all FOTF cards for a big collection, it'll be OK. If you do, they're forcing you to buy 60% of the cards on the market. Kinda seems like they're pushing to make people buy more stubs, unless stubs are earned very easily.

I am guessing that those choice packs will come back during a later program.
