New Topps now program
-
Last year was not remotely bad, the pack to free card ratio was fine, and there was plenty of content
This year is terrible. The content has been slashed by an enormous margin (no WBC size program). Topps now only has three cards (Im not counting pack cards), and it doesnt even seem to be a weekly thing anymore.

The MLB season is less than a week old. On what evidence are you basing your "doesn't seem to be a weekly thing" hypothesis?

The calendar
They already started decreasing the frequency towards the end of last year -
I fear this is just gonna be a problem the rest of the year. It’s the year of the Pack. They don’t want you grinding for good rewards this year. Bottomline.

@MetalDoc17 sadly I think you’re right

The proof is in the pudding. Look at what’s in front of your eyes. That’s the evidence! What is making you think it’s not pay to win?

I guess I am just going to have to enjoy the game for the game and not worry about completing sets. At least the vast majority of my opponents online seem to NMS people too.

Personally i dont think its pay to win because i have a competitive team, on par with pretty much everyone else and other than the digital deluxe edition, i havent spent a dime.

I play every day. haven't spent a dime on the game. i am not forced to buy anything. I just grind and get the cards I want. Pretty simple.
No Money spent on this game since MLB 17.

I seriously don't understand why people have a problem with the game this year, I literally have no problem with it. I play every day for a couple hours and still have a pretty good team and got 3 of the players in the pack for less than what it's going for. I am slowly working my way through everything and haven't even touched classic mini seasons yet

@sbchamps17 you want a cookie shut up bro

because you'll always have people who want something for nothing. and if they don't get their way they come whining and crying on these forums. not saying everyone - there are some legit concerns - but some of the stuff I read today is ridiculous.

@LuvMyXBOX no we just aren't special Billy's that need our hand held for us to understand things. Thanks for playing.
-
Where is the SDS that pushed the narrative of " You can earn all cards through just playing the game " . SDS should be ashamed for putting the best Topps Now cards in packs you have to buy.
-
UnsaferRainbows- keep your cookies. I was just wondering why everyone shits on the game when this is what they asked for
."No 99s at launch" -
@sbchamps17 we are not asking for 99’s bro you are clueless we paid for the game we should get the content we paid for not have to buy stubs to get cards that used to be in programs
-
It's literally a spend stubs campaign. Even if you don't buy the packs and buy them in the market, it's just a stubs sink for terrible "rewards."
-
You don't HAVE to buy stubs, alot of people including me are still doing it NMS and not having any problems
-
Still a little early for me to worry. But I'll say this: Last year you could get at least 2 of the 3 Season Collections just by locking in non-sellable cards that were earned from Programs and TA.
Unless they release a TON of cards available through Programs, and not packs, we may be lucky to get one of the Collection cards. If that's going to be the norm; ALOT of people are going to hang it up early.
Also, I'm interested in seeing how the new 'TN' program works. Even though you were able to get those cards for 'free' last year; many didn't make my lineup unless they were being used to progress their program.
However if we can't complete, or st least earn the Season Reward/Lightning player, without buying cards; it's going to be a short season for most of us.
