It is really a shame what the game has turned into with new generation consoles. I get you brother but I think this is a glimpse of things to come. There needs to be competition because people will still buy this game despite its shortcomings because there is no other baseball game. RBI doesn’t really count either.
Competition isn’t going to help, I don’t understand why people think that. It’s just going to be multiple baseball arcade sim’s similar to FIfa with more micro transactions because they are competing for revenue not player retention. We as a community, especially the veterans of the franchise have to stand up and say no. We have to inform the new players that this isn’t acceptable and isn’t what DD was built on.

I’ve been playing for three years, have obtained every card I wanted and have never completed a micro transaction. What are you actually talking about?

I am talking about the direction it is headed, you may not have had to complete a “‘micro transaction” this year but I bet you bought the pre order with 50,000 stubs? Have you spent majority of your time on the market flipping instead of playing the game?, I know you have missed out on the countless free packs and cards that were in the TA programs. Yet those same cards have all migrated to packs, and what about those who bought the game later in its life cycle? How do you suppose those players acquire the MS Britton or 2nd half Justice without purchasing stubs? You used to be able to acquire past program cards just by playing, now you better buy some stub’s and get to flipping or buy some stubs and buy them.

I bought the standard version when the future star program came out. I haven’t flipped any cards. I haven’t completed the McCutchen collection yet, but I will soon. It wasn’t a priority of mine, so I was selling all the random henchmen and [censored] you get just for playing. But anyways, to me, it all feels very similar to last year and the year before. I don’t see it moving in a negative direction. Maybe you’re right, and I’m just not seeing it - to me it just seems super easy to obtain cards
Edit: I know it sounds weird that I don’t have the big collections done, but I say it’s easy to obtain cards. But two weeks ago, I had 18 or so All Star cards, about 18 Future Stars, July and August MA completed, Nolan Ryan, Fernando, and JR Richard- that’s it. In two weeks, I’ve completed 9 vouchers toward McCutchen, and am 50% or better in a lot of the other categories. That seems reasonable to me considering I don’t flip or grind a bunch of conquests

This year has more un sellable cards, no TA program which added cards and packs to help with collections, shorter timed programs. It’s vastly different.

They aren’t called Team Affinity, but the FotF, Future Star, and All Star programs were basically the same thing right? I assume there will be a program where every team gets a finest, and maybe another where every team gets a retro finest

No, they aren’t, because they were made a timed program, TA was never timed instead completed through gameplay throughout the year. If you didn’t play day one you didn’t get the FOTF cards, when in the past you could obtain throughout the year at your own pace with a mass of cards and stubs to go along with it.

There's definitely not more unsellable cards at all. The amount of non-collection unsellable cards is like 15. TA is completely overrated nonsense. At this point in the season I have not noticed any difference at all in the amount of free packs. I've opened like 6 tool box packs in the last 2 weeks without even looking for them. Also considering that last gen still doesn't have the post game progress screen, I'm pretty sure the game tracking 30 team affinity programs at once is what caused last year to have the worst server problems this game has ever had. Everyone has their own opinion on timed programs, but you can't seriously tell me that it's worse than the same format we had for 3 YEARS of inning programs, ranked, BR once a month, events and garbage player program every 2 weeks, and headliners

I have like 5-8 un sellable henchmen, some duplicates as well as POTM un sellable dupes which I still can’t figure out why I have them.
And I liked the inning programs, because it gave everyone a chance to obtain some cards even if they missed the program. Not everyone has time to dedicate everyday to this game.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but with the inning programs, you couldn't complete previous ones without doing the voucher right? That was the only way to get 300 stars(having the three previous bosses) I know that's the way it worked in 19, unsure about onwards.

You couldn’t complete them, but you could acquire the henchmen (which in most cases were more valuable by the end of the year) and pick up some of the program oriented packs and stubs.
-
This game is super friendly to people who pick it up late. If you bought the game today, you could field an entire team just by completing the August MA. It would be a good team too, possibly really good depending on who you pulled in the AS and HRD packs toward the end of the program.

At this point in the season I have not noticed any difference at all in the amount of free packs. I've opened like 6 tool box packs in the last 2 weeks without even looking for them. Also considering that last gen still doesn't have the post game progress screen, I'm pretty sure the game tracking 30 team affinity programs at once is what caused last year to have the worst server problems this game has ever had. Everyone has their own opinion on timed programs, but you can't seriously tell me that it's worse than the same format we had for 3 YEARS of inning programs, ranked, BR once a month, events and garbage player program every 2 weeks, and headliners
I have like 5-8 un sellable henchmen, some duplicates as well as POTM un sellable dupes which I still can’t figure out why I have them.
And I liked the inning programs, because it gave everyone a chance to obtain some cards even if they missed the program. Not everyone has time to dedicate everyday to this game.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but with the inning programs, you couldn't complete previous ones without doing the voucher right? That was the only way to get 300 stars(having the three previous bosses) I know that's the way it worked in 19, unsure about onwards.
You couldn’t complete them, but you could acquire the henchman (which in most cases were more valuable by the end of the year) and pick up some of the program oriented packs and stubs.
And this year they've been repeating henchmen a ton, or putting them in packs, and pretty much every henchmen is worth the quicksell now in this years game. also the packs before 300 stars in inning programs were pretty junk in 19 and 20, so I wouldn't really say it was all that good

It is really a shame what the game has turned into with new generation consoles. I get you brother but I think this is a glimpse of things to come. There needs to be competition because people will still buy this game despite its shortcomings because there is no other baseball game. RBI doesn’t really count either.
Competition isn’t going to help, I don’t understand why people think that. It’s just going to be multiple baseball arcade sim’s similar to FIfa with more micro transactions because they are competing for revenue not player retention. We as a community, especially the veterans of the franchise have to stand up and say no. We have to inform the new players that this isn’t acceptable and isn’t what DD was built on.
I’ve been playing for three years, have obtained every card I wanted and have never completed a micro transaction. What are you actually talking about?
I am talking about the direction it is headed, you may not have had to complete a “‘micro transaction” this year but I bet you bought the pre order with 50,000 stubs? Have you spent majority of your time on the market flipping instead of playing the game?, I know you have missed out on the countless free packs and cards that were in the TA programs. Yet those same cards have all migrated to packs, and what about those who bought the game later in its life cycle? How do you suppose those players acquire the MS Britton or 2nd half Justice without purchasing stubs? You used to be able to acquire past program cards just by playing, now you better buy some stub’s and get to flipping or buy some stubs and buy them.
I bought the standard version when the future star program came out. I haven’t flipped any cards. I haven’t completed the McCutchen collection yet, but I will soon. It wasn’t a priority of mine, so I was selling all the random henchmen and [censored] you get just for playing. But anyways, to me, it all feels very similar to last year and the year before. I don’t see it moving in a negative direction. Maybe you’re right, and I’m just not seeing it - to me it just seems super easy to obtain cards

I have only seen one rewind of henchmen this year and they were unsellable.

This game is super friendly to people who pick it up late. If you bought the game today, you could field an entire team just by completing the August MA. It would be a good team too, possibly really good depending on who you pulled in the AS and HRD packs toward the end of the program.
But you have no chance of completing the collections which contain the cracked cards, what would it cost a player who picked up the game today to complete Cutch and Brett?.

Maybe 4 to 6 weeks grinding, 3 weeks flipping, or a couple hundred grand lol.

Not to mention Mookie is almost on Cutch's level and I hit better with Austin Riley then I do George Brett

Not all henchmen are QS, you have BR henchmen that yet again are unobtainable and most if not all will be required for collections. I never said it was way better, don’t twist my words, I said I preferred them because you could still earn towards them. If you didn’t get any stars you topped out at 150 coming into the program late, if you got a few stars you could still complete the program to the bosses. It wasn’t way better but I prefer it over the current timed programs.

Preferring it is one thing, but, and this is just what I'm reading and maybe I'm looking at it to hard, you a heralding the past inning programs as the hero of nms players and the new program as money grubbing leeches. There really isn't all that much difference, neither program let you get the big players once the time was up without buying them.
