The change things cause we were do for a change.

Inning programs were the exact same for 3 years,

TA in 21 actually did more harm to the game then good. To many good cards were given put with little to no effort needed. It also devalued any card that was part of the featured program, WS or BR. There were so many time it was posted "these rewards are an L, they don't match up to anything that can be earned via TA".

The Jackie program from 20 was awesome but it was done due to the pandemic and no other content was available so they adjusted. There will be more and better Jackie content all year.

This change is good and healthy for the game and will actually bring a more balance to the game and reward the players both NMS and money spent who play the game long term.

Kind of, but they still did the same thing with FOTF. Everyone got twelve 90s. My team is all 93-94s (90s plus parallel), with Adley at C who's free from conquest and live series Trout because he's pretty cheap right now. So that's a pretty stacked team for early on and I haven't spent a dime. So I'm not really missing out on any free cards, there's just way less stuff to do.

Please explain what less stuff is there to do compared to last year???

Cause based on what I have found is that the 1st inning conquest is missing and some small amount of moments.

After that the only thing missing are the extra TA packs and 3 boss cards.

Well team affinity is gone which is kind of a big deal. That was a lot to do. The daily moments path is gone, along with the 2 or 3 evo programs per month that went along with it. And besides the 1-hit Jackie and Babe Ruth we haven't had an actual player program or anything.

TA isn't gone it's the featured program, monthly moments are part of the program so you miss out on an 89 Alamor,

Yes Evo programs are gone but now we have Legend lighting players so that's a wash.

We have the city connect Washington program that had the same level of player card as a player program from the 1st inning

Basically you are mad that they took away extra packs to earn not actual less stuff to do. There isn't less to do they took away some extra packs and actually made NMS mean something

First of all I'm not even mad it's not my thread. I was just commenting on the fact that you said having less free diamonds is better to which I said everyone got 12 free 90s right off the bat. Nobody has a team with less than 90s and we're not even a month in. So all I'm saying is since they're still doing that they might as well have kept it the same.

Less worried about content, more concerned with way less rewards (packs/stubs) this year.

I'm a very "linear" thinker. This year just feels all over the place. Last year, we had well defined paths. For example, daily missions, TA paths, inning programs, monthly awards paths. They were all "fully-baked". This year, it seems like everything is open-ended. I just can't get as excited to log in each day. That, coupled with the disaster of mini seasons (for me anyway), and I'm just kind of lost.

I understand the importance of changing things up. Maybe it will all come together as we go along. But right now, I'm just feeling... "Meh".

I will say that I really like the "Supercharge" concept. I try to stay positive...

Well said.
I feel the same. Things just feel empty. No daily moments, no daily missions, no passionate play by play calls.
I really wish we had an alternative baseball game to fall back on.

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.

I agree with pretty much all of this. 20 had a great structure. And the year-long XP path meant that XP meant something, always. Not so anymore. It's like SDS is a parent saying, "Only so much per day, now. And only until you reach the limit. Then no more. Wait for the next one."

Max out of the program today yet I still finished 4 collections and made 40k stubs. Man of there was only events and RS and BR to do man it's gonna be boring what ever will I do

Pretty sure last year was a conquest with diamond shoes and socks and other stuff plus Jackie through a program. Don’t let it fool you that they killed rewards this year a lot. Just think about what was in the TA program and the inning program was basically what we have now. It was a weird thing deciding to kill their own game lol.

[genopolanco_PSN]

It’s an 88 Jackie. Really not that big of deal. Who’s to say they don’t keep expanding on it throughout the year?

You mean hearing “a ball that’s carrying!” 4-5 times an inning?

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.

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

Lol game hasn’t even been out for two weeks officially and wtf

What do you mean
