    Yeah, I agree with this ☝️. They would have to fully pivot from a game where everything was reasonably obtainable to one that shuts everyone out who waited a month or two to buy.

    I'm still trying to wrap my head around some of these changes but that would be a risky transition. It's one thing to make collecting a little more challenging and another to make it virtually impossible for anyone who hasn't started within the next 3 weeks.

    I actually don’t mind it one bit. I’m using cards that I would have probably never used. Unless it was to unlock that particular players achievement. IMO it’s a nice change.

    Just sucks that our earnable rewards were cut by more than half within the first program of 22. I think that is something to keep in mind. Yes, it is best not to jump to conclusion and speak in hyperbole; and we went from 30 42 series cards that were unlockable through play to only 12 through play with the remaining cards left to be purchased or wait for weeks/months to finish the first featured program collection through rewards in other programs.

    For those connecting this change to EA and MUT, I can kinda understand that. I never played MUT but I remember when it first came out. You could earn hundreds of thousands of coin in game for completing one team collection. One year later, after realizing the money they made in microtransactions, the rewards were drastically reduced and continued on that path up-to this point in time (my buddies were irate)

    Couple this with SDS using phrases like "quality of life" and not explaining what that means and how this change improves our experience. This all does not look good. It can be turned around, and it does not look good.

    So I did not get the players I want besides Acuna, but in a way I do like it. Atleast early game it prevents a ton of similar lineups, I see am seeing a ton of variety right now in FOTF on peoples team

    And the good news is that you can pick Acuna when you earn the choice pack later in the program. I didn't get Tommy Edman for the NL central and he is the only one I truly wanted, but I'll get to choose him in a few more days or a week, however long it takes me to advance the program that far.

    Here is the funny thing. The reason the pack was like this is cause we are the people to blame. Yes us. Last Year the threads were

    I choose the same one. oh the duplicates. So for SDS not having to answer to all the people that were in a rush choosing a card they made it that way.

    So far I got Haniger, Cronenworth who I wanted, and a better version of Chapman. Not bad, I guess.

    I agree 100%. I pulled Salvy night 1, and I refuse to give SDS anymore money for releasing a broken game. So, he has been my catcher, then I pulled Murphy. Wanted to use Salvy at 1st, then I pulled CJ Cron, then Josh Bell. I also pulled Manoah & Edman.

    I would have loved Trout, Belli or Acuna, but noooo lol

    Probably because those "few" overwhelmed the support staff immediately last year. It was wise to try and keep the support queue free of those type of tickets for the first few weeks when there are actual launch issues to address.

    I don't mind the random pulls because I know I have choice packs coming up later. I could be wrong but I am assuming that we will see more choice packs in a future program so that we can keep collecting. Maybe they become the henchmen in the next couple of programs.
