Extreme Program!!!!!! Rewards etc

@Ericulous1_PSN said in Extreme Program!!!!!! Rewards etc:
I have a feeling the only card I'll get is if they have one for grinding to P5. I can hardly beat regular showdowns now. Definitely won't win a game on Legend or HOF and the moments.....hahahahahaha.
In other words, I don't think this program is intended for my skill level. But I'll give it a try. Might cause some binge drinking.
I am primarily an offline player myself that grinds on Rookie/Veteran/All-Star for most of the content available. Although it was pretty tough and took some time, I was able to complete the Extreme program back in 20 to unlock Gehrig so there is hope for everybody.
Players who routinely play on the highest difficulties will have an edge for sure, but even for less skilled gamers it really comes down to repetition. You see the same pitcher over and over or just get really used to a certain player's swing speed or pitch break.
Keep in mind, I wasn't playing before then and hear that the Extreme program in 2019 was even tougher so who knows. All I can can say is that if you log in enough attempts, eventually you will put it all together. The challenge is definitely on another level, but it is very rewarding and satisfying when you make progress.

For the next week or so, play v cpu on HOF or Legend. Once you get the hang of the smaller PCI and the timing its not too bad, I am also assuming the extreme program doesn’t have a time limit so you can do it at your own pace.

So how eXtreme do all think this program will be? I need that card. The good news is, it's easy enough to finish all the other content so there's time for this....the bad news is, I am not ready and not sure I will ever be ready hahaha.
If I remember correctly a couple moments from 20 we're:
Hit 3 home runs in 1 game player locked with Yellich on HOF
Pitch 8 innings without giving up a run against a lineup of HRD cards on HOF.
Can't remember the others.
Showdown was I think 4 elimination showdowns then the final boss but they gave you 20 or 30 outs I think.Conquest was a time consumer. Everything was turn based as far as capturing strongholds.
I think there was one with lou gehrig if i recall, like 3 or 4 xbh in 1 game
Yeah all of that was correct. In fact it was only moments that I failed to do. Just way too boring spending hours with the same player trying to do the same thing over and over.
-
Most, if not all of this will be "offline" meaning playing against the CPU and moments.
There will be a conquest, moments, and missions like "beat the Mariners on HOF/Legend"..
Probably one boss for each segment and an end game reward/collection.
As others have suggested, get some practice in now and don't let yourself get too frustrated. It's meant to be hard and it's guaranteed that you will fail during the process. Treat it as a game and not a job though. You'll be fine.
Without failure, you can't understand success.

New reward looks like Aroldis.
-
-
Looks like 99 Chapman inc
-
Most likely Chapman but I'm just throwing it out there. The highest Roy Halladay we have so far is a 95.

I think with Doc being a new add they may not lock him behind extreme, at least I would hope not.

Do you need to complete everything or can you skip 1-2 things?
For me, I could see completing these:
- Conquest - definitely
- Showdown - probably
- Pitch 8 inn 0 runs on HOF moment - maybe
- Hit 3 hr on HOF moment - no chance
That moment against the HRD cards was at Shippett, when Shippett was at 3000 ft elevation. So painful haha

Some guesses on a possible 4th reward.
Honus, Jimmie, Sheffield, Rickey, Piazza.

I thought Hank too, but he just seems like too big of a name after seeing the others.

Whoever the rewards end up being I'm doing to program. A few free 99's from a program is worth it. No matter how many controllers I break in the process lol.

I think there was one with lou gehrig if i recall, like 3 or 4 xbh in 1 game
That year, one moment required hitting 3 HR with Yelich in a game on either HoF or Legend, and another moment required 4 XBH with Gehrig on either HoF or Legend in one game.
I'm terrible at this game and only ever play Conquest on AS, so I didn't even attempt either moment for over a month. When I finally decided to give it a whirl, I completed the Yelich on the 2nd turn and the Gehrig moment on the first try. The PCI gods shined down fondly on me that day my friend.

Yelich had to hit 3 HR's in one game on HOF
You had to beat FS Nate Pearson on HOF (Outlier)
You had to hit 4 XBH with Gehrig on HOF against Mike Whistleblower Fiers at Shibe ParkPlus Conquest and Showdown

I think I must have ended up beating Pearson at some point, because I know I finished the Moments and Conquest Extreme, but I never finished Showdown Extreme. Whoever that third reward was probably wasn't worth the headache. And I probably would still be trying to beat it today anyway.

Think the 3 hr in one game moment was against that FS Nate Pearson as well

My god, if this one is Aroldis...I better git gud fast!
I'm spending my day playing all HOF Mini Seasons games.
Hope it will help me tomorrow.
I also hope he's the easiest to get (but I bet he'll be the toughest)
I WANT Cano and Wood, but my team NEEDS Aroldis.

Just revealed 99 Retro Finest Aroldis Chapman. Yikes!
