So are Programs dead? it's now fully pay to win?
-
It's 3 weeks in for and they've added only pack with content that is absolutely perfect for programs but instead I have to spend 40k in stubbs thats $40 come on guys you seriously need to do so much better
-
The game has been out for 8 days since regular release and the season hasn't even started yet. There will be plenty of programs coming I'm sure. And this game is so far from pay to win. Its always so easy to get good cards without spending a penny.
-
The game is officially only 8 days old. Let's give it some time. There is some sort of easter program coming out Friday. We will have topps now, MA, conquest stuff, etc. It'll be fine.
-
It’s almost more alarming when you say it’s only been 8 days. Their on pack 7 or 8 pack already it just gets old
-
Program literally coming in 27 hours...
-
Helluva lot more packs added to the store than actual content added to the game so far. It's early but also clear where SDS is headed. It was blatanly obvious last year and they're only going to keep pushing in that direction.
-
Theres the great Easter egg hunt, so no progrms are not dead
-
I am not going to disagree with the OP but they did the same thing last year and for the most part we got a solid amount of content. I realize it is easy to panic with the state of the game but let's give them a little more time to fix it and then we can revisit this topic.
-
Sorry, but if it's like last year's egg hunt, I don't really consider it a program. Anyone who doesn't play on-line can't possibly complete it. Really goes against the "play how you want" talking point.
That said, if this all didn't make them more money last year (just like this same strategy makes EA more money), they wouldn't be repeating it this year. So, for better or worse, this is clearly the game the user base wants, voting with their wallets.
-
@energystar157 I’m sure that’s how they see it with how out of touch they are. But people are really just voting with their addiction and SDS is taking full advantage of that.

Egg hunt was easy last year. And i don't play online either. It was like hit a HR in Ranked, BR, Events. Get a couple wins in BR/Events. There's nothing to spend stubs on. It's really not that hard to go online and hit a fluke HR or to even win a game. May take a few games to actually do it, but not hard. Hardest part of Egg Hunt last year was knowing what actually counted. And there were like a million videos all over the internet after day 1.

You and I define "don't play on-line" differently. I don't give Sony money for PS+, therefore I don't play on-line. And I'm not alone in that.

This means you only play franchise and RTTS with the base roster at launch and don’t do any programs. Which makes one wonder why you care about a post about lack of programs?

Nope. You can play DD without PS+. Just not BR, RS, Coop or Events.

Content is pretty boring so far this year. Already bored of the game!
-
I just want more cards only obtainable by putting in a lot of effort into the game. It used to be so satisfying to finally finish a big program/collection you've been working at for awhile, and then knowing you can immediately move on to the next one. Now you can just buy most of the good cards in the store.
Working at some of those programs for weeks at a time was overwhelming at the time, but I'd 100% trade how the game works now for it.
-
@energystar157 No, your not. There is like 4 of you guys that won’t pay for PS+ but play the online content of a video game because you’d rather wait for the Devs you won’t support to release cards through programs you could literally just go add to your team offline.
If only we were all this smart.
-
Here is the thing programs will be shorter and quicker this year because all last year people complain it was to grind heavy so don't expect anything to involved this year
-
@flamexJD20 it’s been out for 8 days dude.
-
Its totally been out for 3 weeks....if there were 3 days in a week.
