Program missions value

Yeah it’s not really worth it at all. I was doing them because the 1k xp is a nice little boost here and there if you’re just grinding anyway, but I’m sick of them now.
Monte Irvin blows, and James Paxton might be the worst vs CPU pitcher I’ve used. I also thought Jose Abreu played under his ratings.
-
I tried taking a program PXP squad into the event, most of the lineup was fine, the pitching, save one or two cards, was brutal.
Wouldn’t recommend -
Wasn't it 3K last month for the program missions? I could be wrong but thought it was indeed 3K. I'll toss some of these in for Conquest just to use some different lineups, but 1K XP for having to P1 a card is a tad miniscule. At least most pitchers can get the P1 rather quick in offline modes. Hitters, no so much.

Wouldn’t recommendYou're better off taking the team into a CPU game. You can get a pitcher done in one game and the hitters...well, depending on the hitters...can take 3-4. This way you get the XP for the CPU game, the PXP for the players, and the reward XP for completing their missions.

It's just crazy that they give like conquests for 30k, easy collections for 10-15k, showdowns for 30k...These missions are so far out of line
-
I have not done these missions since the first week of the first program. They are not required for the main missions, nor are they worth the effort.
Unfortunately they are pretty much required for the POTM and other programs, which I am not a huge fan of. Sometimes it seems like if I want to progress I have to bench the players I worked to earn or chose to buy last month simply to earn new cards this month.

That right there. It sucks building a good team and then having to use specific players you don’t care about at all. Or teams full of Rockies for a couple games. Not a big deal, but just king of annoying

Wouldn’t recommendI did this. Through 5-6 games I think I haven't even hit 100 PXP per batter and haven't completed one pitcher.
These aren't lineup cards. These are collection fillers.

I was going to do the new conquest anyways and I have a US map conquest half done so I've just been grinding through with lineups full of the mission guys. It's barely even worth the stupid 1k xp considering I have to keep changing the lineup, rotating guys out, planning ahead for the new packs so I'll know who to pick based on positions I have open. It's way too much work and grind for the eventual 30k. Meanwhile you get 30k for finishing the conquest in an hour.

@jkooch66_xbl said in Program missions value:
It's a bit silly that having to get 300pxp with some crappy hitter that you don't want to use is worth the same program xp as a daily moment. They should be 3k, or 2k minimum. I could get the same gameplay XP and way more program xp doing road to the show or march to October.
The toughest part is having to complete several 1st basemen who don't have a secondary position.
Still pitchers were super easy.
I still get uneasy seeing Eddie Murray twist his front foot forward like that. -
They are not worth it, so don’t do them. That’s what I decided.

The problem is that people are looking at is as 1000 xp....instead of the 30,000 xp you get for doing all of them. Throw them in a lineup, blast out the conquest and maybe a few vs CPU games and you're done. Or, if you suck with certain cards, dont use them. You're not being forced to do the PXP missions and this type of post seems to be a regular thing with every new program. They're not just gonna change course now so may as well get used to it.

Or people can wait until they have the Double XP week and do these to get the extra XP just playing with them.

Done 5 of the 30 players and will finish the other 25 for that 25k xp
These are just extra mission and next week we will get the team build mission which will be 3k each.
Don't think to much about them and how you use the player as the pxp will come naturally

Ok? The mission xp and the pxp wont be double but sure you can wait for it....or dont. Doesnt matter either way. Not sure how double xp is gonna make it more enjoyable for people to use cards they dont wanna use, but have at it.

I know the Mission XP and the PXP you get per person won't double; but the XP you get for playing the game will.
People can do it know and get regular XP for a 3 Inn Conquest game or do it the last week of the Program and get double XP for a three inning Conquest game.
Or just pur them in a Mini Seasons lineup.

Or they could do it now and use their regular lineup for double xp...or they could do a few missions next Sunday and save the rest for double xp....or they could do 3 now, 5 next week, 7 the week after that and save the rest for double xp...
Still not really sure what your point is here either way. If someone is gonna complain about doing it today, they're not gonna be overjoyed doing it a month from now because its double xp.

Part of my point is that most are complaining that it only 1000 XP per mission and it was more last program.
But what they aren't considering is that it was 2-3X more because there were less players.
There are 30 Player Missions. If they gave 3000XP each that would be a total of 90K when completed.
If I remember correctly; the Gold versions of these missions in the FOTF Program were also at 1000XP.
If they want the 'extra' XP wait until Double XP. If not, than don't and do them whenever.
There is no right/wrong way. Just people complaining about something just to complain.
-
At least these were 300 for hitter and 500 for pitchers. The ones that are 500 for hitters are a pain and the respective program usually needs them. The 500 ones can be changed, in my opinion. A bit too much squeeze for the juice.
-
I have a lineup set up of these cards but Id rather play a game in RTTS and get 1000 XP from a game there
