Anyone else puzzled why they changed up content so much?

People cried and complained about the moments and difficulty of the Jackie program last year and now you need 1 hit to get an average card that bring jackie Robinson back into the game. It's absolutely no wonder that SDS even bothers to come onto these boards and respond with the constant whining on this forum.
As far as the monthly program being confusing, I think that is because people have such a limited ability to think anymore without jumping to an online spot to complain. If you think about the program, you'd know what happened and is happening for the program.

I'm not disliking it nearly as much as others are. Topps now hasn't changed at all, it just looks different, and now we get legend lightning cards, the possibilities are endless there.
The "inning program" is now much more varied. The next one will give us five bosses and we get two. Then a quick two week program for one card. It's going to keep the game fresh. Instead of the only mystery being who the 3 bosses will be, we get a completely different program every few weeks or month.
The Jackie program was absolutely beautiful. The moment he had his first AB/hit, he changed the entire face of baseball, and to an even larger extent, pushed the country closer to racial equality. Being able to recreate that moment was very powerful, props to SDS.
As a side note, if any of you are ever in Kansas City, the Negro League Baseball Museum is an absolute must. It puts that moment, all the struggles before that moment, and the continued struggles after baseball integrated into perspective. The memorabilia alone is worth the trip!

I don’t mind the Jackie moment. Tired of the Jackie program every year. Well, collections I guess

Then this new monthly program has everyone confused.
It’s not confusing to anyone who thinks about it for more than 3 seconds.
I shudder to think how this crowd would have handled the Immortal rollout of 2018…
They would have stopped playing like 90% did that year. Nobody wants to look and wait at content. People want to play and earn it. And not piece by piece like a MLB the show advent calendar that comes out every 5th day. Just drop content, SDS needs to stop trying to hinder people from finishing programs when boosters are there within 12 hours. It hurts nobody to release the conquest maps at the same time, same with the moments, same with the missions, same with the showdowns.
They drop one program then spend 4 weeks releasing the ways for you to finish it. That’s not new content, it’s just staggering content from release day.
Then they finally release something else…. and oh look it’s just another form of waiting for content lol.
The DMV should hire these content kings, nobody has ever made waiting seem so cool.

I think they are just trying to listen to the community a bit but have a habit of over adjusting when they do. Last year there were tons of complaints about too many 99s early and everything so I think they are trying to slow the roll out of those.
I'm also hoping the Jackie Program was so short because they are planning on extending it and you need this first card to continue.
Content is definitely lacking a bit but until I see a few featured program layouts I'm not ready to get too discouraged -
I miss the structure ‘20 with the XP path alongside the Inning/Featured program.
I also miss the free stubs/packs from TA.
I do not miss TA which kept people from playing RS because they were grinding Showdown. That was abused and correctly done away with. As someone earlier posted, the plethora of quality TA cards devalued the inning reward cards.

Idk man the game is just boring right now. Program done, br done, event half way, RS is pointless because I don't have enough time for 400 innings and I'm not going to make 900, offline content is non existent, packs are the only thing worth grinding for and the odds have been bad this year for me. I'm just gonna play a different game. A good game.
-
The only real thing I have a problem with is the balance of XP. they put a 600k cap then release all this stuff yesterday, moments, programs, more collections all for XP and I cannot do anything with any of it. Why? Because I did most of everything else that was already put out and grinded one iteration of my ballplayer and didn't even get all the way through the diamond layout yet. That shouldn't be enough to max me out that quick. But I think they will adjust it. Hopefully

I mean, spread it out a little and it might get less boring less quickly. You just described a full time job worth of content grinding

If the program is done with 2 weeks to go, he definitely has « time » to play 400 innings.

Maybe, he probably did the RTTS grind to speed up the process, and now is upset that he glitched the game and finished early.
Not playing 400 innings and using the RTTS XP exploit translates to: "I don't like actually playing the game, I just want to collect stuff".

Not a chance sir. I don't touch rtts until I get done with dd, that way I can start fresh.

Rtts exploit? Enlighten me. You grind your ballplayer for hours. Haven't heard of any exploits lol. Pretty sure it's working as SDS intended

Enlighten me why so many people on this forum act like you do?
You can download a roster that boosts your team to 99's and has all other players as a 1 overall. You can change slider settings, and you can play on beginner.
The average game ends up being 60+ to nothing, and you'll get double digit AB's and double digit HR's.
That's not the intent of SDS.

I got about 150 to 200k XP in RTTS in about 4 days doing none of that. Plus not adjusting sliders and playing on veteran gives better XP

They don't do it for the in game XP, they do it for the unlimited bonus XP, and the 30K plus for diamond equipment.
I just laugh, these guys rush to finish, then complain that there's nothing to do. Because the Archetypes are connected this year, they won't be able to do it very many times. Later in the year OP will be here complaining that SDS doesn't give enough XP for programs.
