There has to be a better way
-
12 hours, give or take, of grinding so far. (6 hrs from release to Fri morn and then another 6 hrs From evening into Sat morn) and all I have to show for it is 30 completed TA Moments, a completed Starter Program, 3 Mini Conquest Maps, and 45K in XP. If this rate keeps up; I'll get to 500K just as the program expires.
Well, at least I don't have to worry about hitting the Daily XP cap.

Huh? What are you rambling on about?

Im sure they will be adding missions, conquest maps, and showdowns just like last year to the reward path to boost it.

I'm.almost done the USA map and a good chunk of WBC moments and I think I'm at 60k xp
I am very happy with how things are moving. My Blue Jays team for conquest grind is the best it's ever been thanks to the captin cards.
Enjoy the ride dont rush we got 9 months of this

10% through the program in 12 hours but you won't be able to get to 500k in 49 days?

Math strikes again!

There is a better way, i'm at 85k in XP, done 3 mini maps, the West conquest map, half the Central Conquest map and all of the WBC moments. Team is already a 93, not sure who i'll take when i get to the around the world choice pack.
Not to mention when the game actually opens for everyone i'm sure we will get some moments, a new conquest map and with any luck at the end of April the first POTM program which is always a goldmine for XP and stubs. This is a long grind not a race to finish.

There is xp all over the place Team Affinity alone has 120k in xp awards 4k every time you hit the Chrisma packs.
Mini Season had big payout if you win championship, if you play online BR program has huge xp payout later in the program.

For real. I'll never understand why people are always in such a hurry to get through everything. Im already seeing the posts on social media. "Whats the fastest way to do this?"
They're given us plenty of high 90s so we can all have competitive teams. Its not like it was in previous years when you had to rush to finish collections and get all the best content first.
Theres a reason in the last stream that Ramone kept saying "The 99 grind..." Because its not a race....its a marathon.

If you want to get hyper-technical, the game hasn’t even been released yet!

I mean let's get hyper-technical anyone who is playing early access can't cliam NMS seeing as they spent money to get into the game before others.
PS I am money spent team

I'm not complaining. I'm just stating that I need to find a better way to maximize my time. I don't know why but I can't seem to find my groove.
Every single TA Moment took multiple tries and I probably spent close to at least 15 mins on each one. Some longer. Not really a wise way to invest my time for 100-400 in XP and 1000 TA points.
I know I'll eventually find my groove. Was just venting out load.
And I can say that 12 hrs may be a little exaggerated as I don't take into effect the time spent navigating the game when it first dropped. The time spent finishing the FA collection. The time spent opening packs. And the time spent taking a 10-15 min break to take out the dog and to use the facilities myself.
Just was a little deflated when I noticed that amount.
Oh well. Like everyone said; I have time to complete it. It's a marathon not a sprint.

No BS the Adolis Garcia HR moment in TA took me like an hour. I couldn't hit to save my life. I was probably overtired yesterday but im finding my swing again today.

That 3 hit with TA Wander. After about 20 minutes I was wondering if the 1,000 TA points was actually worth it.
There is a small positive about them taking long. When you finally exit the Moment, whether you complete it or give up, as long as you select Quit all that XP accrues.
I think after I finally got the 3 hits with him and exited I got almost 2K in XP.

Some of the moments in the WBC program took me quite a while as well, the 3 strikeouts without giving up a hit or walk was painful and I normally sail through the pitching moments.

This one was one of the last 3 i did... got 2 left now 2 xbh with Meness and the 6 tb one

The game is less than 48 hours into pre-release. There is so much content. I love it. Enjoy Shawnchez. It’s fun

I hated the Meness one. I would hit a home run in the first at bat and the either ground out to 3rd or hit one to wall just to see it die and be caught. Probably took me 15/20 attempts

I always save the 6 tb and 2 xbh for last and I can see I am right... it will prob punish me tonight
