You do realize the season is 5 days old right?
Of course. The game has been out for over two weeks now, nearly 3 weeks for preorders
There was more program content for WBC last year than there is in the entire program list so far this year.
THERE IS NO DEFENSE FOR LACK OF CONTENT SO FAR. I was giving them the benefit of the doubt that this new season awards would be significant. And they release a program smaller than a typical Topps Now week, even though its supposed to be two programs in one.
That was based on the WBC. My lord are you this dumb in the real world?

Unacceptable.
-Extreme lack of post launch content, and this "program" did little
-A pack for what was always free in the past
-No ways to earn said packs offlineTopps Now you'll have to buy the Pack of the Month

He found a rock. It was between his ears. Ignore him.

Grow up... His point is that he (Teak) wants more content, regardless of the program. You can disagree, but calling him "dumb" just makes your other forum input seem less substantial. -
@Dolenz said in And this is where SDS has crossed the line in my view:
So tell me, other than some lucky pulls from earned packs, which is a rare occurrence, how are people supposed to earn stubs for these packs?
-
I don't see what the big deal is with the packs in the shop. We all know that eventually they will be in a reward path of one of the upcoming programs. We'll be able to earn them soon enough.

While this doesnt deserve a response, the fresh start idea could have easily been made into a WBC sized program. Its a great concept for a pre-season program. And I bet people would have loved it.
And if you want a more direct comparison, Mexico City vs Seoul

Based on last year's model? Sure. But this clearly isnt last year's model.
The next content drop isnt scheduled until next Friday, and it will be TA which is unlikely to have choice packs because then they would have to do it x6. (To be fair, the storylines are pretty cool so there is something on Friday this week...just not specifically themed towards DD which is fine. Just more reason the Topps Now should have been bigger)
Programs so far have all been small and packless with no reason to think that will change. If Topps Now only has 4 cards what hope is there for future ones?

@SDS PLEASE STOP TURNING INTO EA. WE PLAY YOUR GAME TO GET AWAY FROM EA. DO NOT BECOME THEM

why are they greedy? I usually don't follow the DD politics. Last year they gave us all 99s day 1. I think many of us didnt like that. Is that why they're being called greedy? because now we have to progress thru DD like other years except for last year?
Do me a favor. Go to the store, count all the pack options available, then look at the prices, study them and memorize the prices, then look at the best cards you could get.
After you're finished, go take a look at the market prices. If u hit the big diamond round, congrats, here's an extra 20-30k stubs! If u don't, you lose half your stubs.This is one example of how greedy they are. But they're so dumb, those players and dropping 40k on those packs just isn't worth the risk for those with half a brain.
Also, they allow u to earn 4 captain cards through the xp path. I've gotten all 4. Then they decided it would be cute to put the captain cards in the store for 25k each. Only a small handful of those cards qualify as top meta options. Instead of allowing us to earn every captain, we can only earn 4 and must buy the rest.
That's another example of unnecessary greed.There are more, but think I've described 2 examples fairly well.

@LuvMyXBOX Just the typical forum whiners.

Omg, someone finally sees what I've seen! EA are the worst! I still play Fifa, but gave up on Madden.
This is borderline what EA does. But I will admit, EA is worse. Ppl drop thousands hoping to get R9, Dinho, Pele, Cruyff, Gullit, Viera, etc. It's a disgrace. And the pack weights are so bad! -
@Blind_Bleeder
I think a lot of users were looking forward to a bigger program to grind... with more xp and greater rewards to earn, rather than purchase. So in that regard, this drop disappointed a lot of users. -
Crazy concept that you have to use in-game-currency to buy things in this game.

So in that regard, this drop disappointed a lot of users.I can see that. After last year, our rewards are very disappointing. I have to keep reminding myself of the days when we only had golds for the first couple of weeks and maybe, maybe a diamond in a reward path. I think it's somewhat funny (strange like) that people were livid last year because of all the early high diamond cards, and now they're livid because of the lack of good cards.

@TubaTim90
Yeah, for a while this game was different than other sports games, as far as being able to grind for the best cards. They were not just "pay to win", like the rest. I understand their change in philosophy and I do not blame any company for wanting to increase revenue... as long as they do not go to far. While I do not like some of the changes over the last couple of years, I still enjoy this game and want it to grow. Hopefully they will find ways to keep their gamer base engaged. We'll see. -

All anyone did was cry about Mexico City from what I recall. Now we need an entire program about a 2 game series. Should we bring the monsters back? Are they now cool?
