Max Program XP
-
There really needs to be an incentive to play the game after you max the main program xp. This was an issue last year, but I thought it was an oversight from the first year implementation.
I by no means am one of the top players, and I have 10 days of the 30-day program where I gain no xp at all for any actions and have no real motive to play until the next program drops. Others maxed out way earlier than that.
It seems it wouldn't be too hard to award increased stubs when xp is maxed, or create an infinite epilogue to the program that awards vanilla packs or stubs every 100k or something after the end goal of the program.

BR, conquest mystery map, mini seasons, RS, events all Give rewards outside of xp. Plenty of ways to still play and earn things.

Or you could do all of those things while also earning XP. Also, mini seasons is still broken for me -- I get an unhandled server exception even trying to enter the mode after winning the first playoff series.

I have to submit a complaint about the mystery map. I have done it at least 15 times and not a single diamond, I demand to be put on the good luck list.

I have done that map at least 50 times, I gotten a few diamonds.

Do not be in such a rush to finish the program so fast, I close to 450 i will get to 600 with a few days left. They already put extra in that path that goes past the last FOTF player award. A few years ago it did go to 900 in some of the Inning Programs. Maybe they should not give so much xp away, then player like myself would not be able to finish it because we have a life outside this game

Let’s see how it goes next program when nobody is grinding caps in RTTS. I guess the pace will slow down

Now you just play the game, I guess. Is there anything wrong with that?

Gone are the days of playing a game just to have fun apparently. These kids wouldn't have survived gaming back even 10+ years ago or further. Probably the same ones who have a bedroom full of participation trophies.

Get off my lawn! [censored] kids!
Whatever. It's a different world. They would've been fine if that was the gaming environment they were raised in.
Now keep watering the lawn and shooting dirty looks at kids riding their bikes and having fun.

This made me LOL as I feel the pain.

You love comment on these types of posts. Agreed play the game, but they made xp the end all be all so let's not act shocked when people lose motivation to grind when they've maxed out

Except grinding isn't the point of the game. Playing it is.

Strongly disagree. Diamond dynasty is a grind, it's a pursuit of diamond cards. If there were no grinding in DD it would be called franchise or season mode. Or what it's becoming, "everybody gets a trophy mode".
If we wanted to just kick back and enjoy a baseball sim video game than franchise is 100% a better option.
All my opinions of course.

If online franchise existed i would play it in its entirety. However my main goal in DD is to play RS and events, the grind is an afterthought. Its nice to be rewarded but I also don't need to be rewarded for every single thing I do in game.
If anything I'm happy I'm done with the xp program so I can give the middle finger to conquest and every other xp earning mission/moment.

See back in my day the only reward you got after playing a good game on the diamond was first choice of pick axe. Got to pick.a good one with a sturdy handle for the 12 hour shift down in the coal mine.

If there are that many people hitting the program XP cap, SDS will extend it in future programs. As they have done in the past.
They already said the next program will have a shorter duration. I’d be surprised if they didn’t keep the 600K cap even with the shorter timeframe.

I would rather play online franchise myself.
