So hear me out. I have done nothing except play this game for the past 2 days. Here what I've finished
All program moments
All program pxp missions
Daily Moments
Babe collection
The exchange
Fatf showdown
Starter showdown
Batter up conquest 1
Batter up conquest 2
Batter up conquest 3
Mystery conquest x6 (packs)
Us conquest x2 (adley)
I'm 10-2 on mini seasons
I've payed maybe 4 BR gamesAll that and I'm just now coming up on the first fotf pack where I'll be allowed choose and to sell my card. Not that it matters because the prices of those cards are down to 30k already. The cards started hitting the market yeaterday. I can say as someone who hasn't stopped playing other than to sleep, there is definitely xp glitches going on.
All this gamepaly and the actual program thus far has only awarded me 4 standard show packs (not including the conquest packs) everything has been a stadium or a no sell.
I was given
Seager
Cronenworth
Mullins
Josh bell
Casey Mize
And Marcus stromanI got reasonably lucky with these cards but still, NO STUBS.
I have maybe earned 50k stubs from all this gameplay. I know they will release more content and more ways to make stubs, but the nms people have a legit gripe imo.
Edit: I know there will be more opportunities to earn stubs and card later in the game. All I'm saying if right now the content that allows earning has been majorly suppressed.

I find it odd as well, they give you only xp and no stubs. Completing fof moments sets should at least reward you with some stubs

I'm getting about 18 stubs per conquest game lol
-
I think you are all way too used to getting a free quicksell diamond every hour and having a million stubs like its nothing. It's ALWAYS a grind for stubs this early on
-
It will be ok, we just have to be patient.
Once the Shark conquest map drops, and we get 4 standard packs, a set one headliner, and a road uniform for completion, we will all realize we were upset for no reason.

Possibly. All I have to compare this year too is last year. And I've read form more than a few people on here that last year was a bit of an anomaly.

Look, it might be a little more difficult this year, but NMS is still going to be completely possible and easy to have a good squad. It might just not be quite as easy to have every single last card in the game, which was extremely easy to do in 21.

Two years ago it was even easier to get stubs and packs.
The big issue people see moving forward are the removal of secondary programs. Three years ago you could grind offline against all 30 teams for a Vlad Sr., two years ago a similar program was in place for Babe. Last year they had Field of Dreams. They also expanded the TA from one program three years ago to 4 two years ago, and I don't even remember how many they had last year. They also always had moments extreme (until last year). Conquest rewards have gotten worse each of the last three years too. Two years ago, we had a conquest map for EACH mlb team at the end of the year. That was 30 conquest maps with hidden rewards (really good ones to boot).
They've reduced the rewards, and removed all the secondary programs. Now we are stuck with one rotating program, it's a money grab.

I’ve been grinding since opening night, pretty much nonstop. I’ve made it to the 3rd no sell fotf pack. I have over 300,000 stubs from a lucky diamond equipment pull that I sold and a ton of low level flips. Finished all the conquests once. Finished the moments, babe, and showdown. Working on cheap live series collections now. NMS is still definitely viable, as it’s the only way I play, but luck and grinding sure are required haha. I actually haven’t hated building the team from literally the ground up. My conquest team was absolute TRASH. The CPU was giving me trouble cause I couldn’t pitch. I’ve acquired some diamonds now so it should improve haha

I would have liked it if they kept team affinity like it was but lowered the overall of the players you unlocked. Last year it sucked when ta3 gifted everyone a 97 overall team. But the content was great and each division gave you over 40 packs and like 7 biah packs.
-
I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt but really there is an insane amount of stuff missing. I’m fine with the 12/30 FOTF, and honestly actually prefer it. I’m as excited about who I randomly get as much as my one and only choice. And the lineup diversity it creates is awesome.
The problem is everything else. I have no belief what so ever these guys will add enough to each and every program to replace the XP path and that isn’t even taken into consideration the hundreds of packs we miss out in no TA. There’s about one teams worth in this program, are we getting 600 in the next two? Doubt it. Are we getting an additional low Diamond and a 99 overall in the third? Doubt that as well.
It looks fine now, teams are a mix of Diamond and golds maybe even some silver relievers and bench players but why not have the rookie to prime missions now? Why not 30 of them one for each team? Why is there no reason to play with anyone from any team for any reason? Boring, stale, MTO the best for of XP a$$ content

Maybe the xp and such is nerfed cause its pre release,so we dont get too far ahead of everybody else,and once the game releases we ll see things normalize
-
Oh, hard for nms is inaccurate as well.i took my 25k from start and turned it into 120k without any diamond pulls or selling the anime or cover.

No one complained about TA in 20 when most of the cards weren’t that good/it was a longer grind to get to. This company over corrects everything.

Idk man like 25 maybe. Don't judge lol. I mowed the grass, went to grocery store, cleaned the house, did the laundry, and the kids both just had birthdays so they are happy to be left alone either their new presents, and i gave my son $30 to download more minecraft stuff. I did all this before Friday because the wife and I planned this to be a video game weekend.
She's playing uncharted.

No judgement, just understand that your life situation is certainly different than others.
This week, I had two music concerts, a regional music festival, a couple coaching meetings, and off season basketball planning.
Next week my son has college application interviews and I have to prepare for state music festival and state forensics.
Not everyone can grind 25 hours in a couple days. Thus, this game shouldn't cater to the very few that have literally nothing else to do.
-
It seems pretty rough for stubs so far. Doesn’t help that I had a buy order go through and wasn’t given the card. So that was a waste of stubs. Sent in a ticket so hopefully I get a refund for that in 3-4 months lol.
Collections are going to be rough if you want to keep every card. It looks like you’re going to have to sell your rewards every time to keep up.
The other way to look at it is if stubs are harder to come buy, the prices for some cards should be lower than usual once things settle.

All I see are the main streamed playing ROTS for extra XP boost. Should be more. Incentives to actually playing Dimond D

Yeah the changes they made to rtts last year really screwed the rtts players over. The mode is dead now. Now it's just a means to cheese xp. There is no replayability.
