We've had some multi-game ones this year. At least 1 with Honus.

I like it, i think the ones on veteran the objectives are pretty difficult to begin with, on AS they d be next to impossible.
Im also thankful that i can earn 25k pxp and skip the mets comeback moment, cause as a phillies fan why would i ever want to even attempt it.so im very thankful i can skip it and still complete the program. -
The whole thing kind of is. The first conquest extreme was one of the first content releases that year. The cards were HUGE bonuses that gave you something to play for because you got a pretty big advantage if you beat it. The Yadi card they just released was pretty much released first month in 18 through extreme.
Now it’s 6-10 months in and they just throw some random cards that people may or may not want in but are easily replaceable so feelings don’t get hurt.
Vet moments….we have fkn VET moments and steal fans on ROOKIE like that isn’t what they’ve been making me do all year.
I surprised they didn’t throw in an exchange so the card flippers that don’t even play the game won’t feel left out.
-
A player like me still won’t be able to do the program… I am more of a. Grind but no where close to any good

Those extreme programs were from a time when this game was a PS exclusive though, real vets of the series were the target back then. We have to factor in two new platforms in the last two years, I think each year they will make it progressively harder until we are at a hybrid of ‘19 and ‘20 extreme programs.

If you play DD you will be able to complete the program 25k pxp repeatable is a long grind but it allows you to just play how you want and make progress in the program.

So I can play the game on rookie or veteran get the 25k over and over? Still going take a while but that would help

Yep, its 3 program points for each 25k, it will take awhile but you can play at your own pace, some of the moments are on veteran and the conquest isn’t to crazy either it will just be a grind.

What is 25 pxp? Is that getting to P5? More?

25 thousand pxp with players in any mode, so you just have to play DD.
-
Also if it’s repeatable- can you be working on more than one at a time? Like hit 25k pxp with one dude on Monday, then another dude hits it on Tuesday, etc.? Seems like this will encourage people to just play with the same lineup for the rest of the year

it's everyone on your team, not just one guy at a time.

25K pxp Points is required to get 3 points for the program. if you want to go this route you should finish the program just in time for mlb the show 23 .

The 25k pxp is accumulated from all your players not just one, just play DD and you will make progress on the program, it’s a long grind don’t get me wrong but if you aren’t comfortable doing the moments, showdown or conquest its a way of making progress.

It’s a grind for sure, but if he completes a few of the moment’s and the conquest which isn’t insane either he will be fine. Showdown is going to be out of question for a lot of player’s, as long as they play DD they will be fine.

Yeah showdown looks tough I’ve already failed it 2 times need to get warmed up lol. I agree he could do a couple moments at least and maybe give the Conquest a shot might not be too tough play on Allstar and he can go the pxp route.

Can you imagine if someone was short 1000 PXP, on multiple cards, from hitting 25,000; they could finish this in a day or two.

That really doesn’t have much to do with the fact extreme is now truly just a “other program” that doesn’t really mean much other than you can beat it. The cards just aren’t a huge boost like they used to be and it’s far to late in the year for them to even matter. If I could have got a high Diamond Cano or Donaldson months ago that would be different but “Extreme” rewards shouldn’t be replaceable with quick sell value cards they day it’s comes out.
I have more than 5 starting pitchers with outlier who cares about Kerry Wood? I have multiple outlier LHP pitchers in the pen who cares about Chapman? I have George Brett, Josh Donaldson isn’t even close. Cano is my favourite player in this game so thank god I can actually get a usable card.
It’s just too late again. Extreme should be like everything else and come out multiple times a year. Something at the start for a nice roster boost then go from there.
