XP Cap explained
-
Which also should hold true for Ch 3 Affinity every season as well.
-
@mietha if they announced the cap before the game released? The XP cap has been a thing for years.
-
@Easy_Duhz_It_ this is my first year with the game, if i had known about the xp cap i wouldnt have bought it tbh
-
I just wanna be able to play with the GOOD players i grind for in XP reward path and other season 1 programs for a while before season 2 comes out, but all the good players are at the end and you can't use them in season 2 like last year. (only as ghost runners)
-
@internal-meat9 this should be a learning experience for you then. Visit the forums BEFORE launch, watch feature premiere streams, follow them on social media etc. Research before you buy.
-
Everyone is missing the major flaw here, bishing about stupid shiz
-
@Easy_Duhz_It_ yeah buyer beware i guess
-
If I had known about the XP shenanigans this year I would have sat out MLB 24.
-
Once again, it's not JUST the XP shenanigans but the fact that every season is like end game, you get the best cards but a new one comes out so you don't use them, it's pretty much pointless

If this had been announced pre-release, over half the return customers would’ve opted to skip 2024. They’ll be losing a bunch of gamers next year if they keep the same philosophy.
You absolutely do not have proof about this, so why pretend you know …

I have played a handful of event games and finished the AL and NL Central Team Affinities along with AL West this week. The most xp I got from a CPU on Rookie game was 3446 and that was a double digit hit and run game. I can't imagine how I could ever hit the xp cap, is it via Ranked Seasons?
-
I actually never knew people cared so much about this xp. I always cared more about pxp personally, unless I was on the verge of a wheel spin last year.
And we still have no idea if we are getting more or less exp relative to the track itself until we see how the season plays out. They havent even released any programs yet which is probably where a large chunk of the track progress is going to come from.
It makes enough sense on paper, I think its fair to be very skeptical that SDS will get the balance right over the course of the season, but it is definitely true we don't have enough information to make a final call. We should see how far before the season end we are finishing the track before making a final judgment on if we are better off or worse off than last year.

What time of day does the cap end? Its 1:33 Pacific Time and I'm not earning xp. ugh
-
Its one of 2 things. The Xp cap will tell you how many hours till you can earn xp again via gameplay. If you didnt hit the cap and see your earning xp during the game. You going to have to have to delete and reinstall game. This has happened to me a few times.

@DEF266 Ok I'll have to look again when I get back on the game this evening. I don't remember it saying a time or anything but i will double check! Thanks!!

'The Xp cap will tell you how many hours till you can earn xp again via gameplay'Where do you see this? I am at the Season 1 XP Reward Path Tasks screen and it does not show anything regarding how much time I have left.

@DEF266 You are preaching to the choir my friend.
I would love to grind, since my time is also limited, but I'm just happy being able to get a few hours in on the weekend between being a husband and father to a 9-month old. There are a lot of us with "limited time" but to treat this 15k cap as some kind of authoritarian end-all is simply childish.
Just one guy's unpopular opinion it seems.
You do you, but also realize there are thousands of other players with their limited time lifestyles not pounding down the doors of SDS.
So your time is more valuable than mine because my wife died, we were unable to have children, and I'm now disabled? Aging and arthritis is a [censored]. Dead spouses suck. A wife so sick she can't get pregnant is heartbreaking. Some iteration will happen to you. Then wait until the one thing you still enjoyed is nerfed to the point the enjoyment starts to go away.
Unpopular? Try unknowing, uncaring, uninformed, unencumbered, underthought, uneducated, and that's just a few of the "un" words.

That's fair. As of right now, mathematically, I'm not goin to reach 1M. That's taking my current total, dividing that by number of days played, then multiplied by number of days in the program. Of course that's not taking into account that I played almost non stop the first week. I should end up in the high 900Ks. That's not enough to get the one card I really want this program. I've finished every program, every year I've played the whole year. Mathematically, I will not be even close to finishing.
edit: Math was flawed. Will be over 1M, but will still not finish the program.
