    This community has gotten so annoying with the constant " i deserve this or i deserve that" MLB 21 did a number on this community, we got almost everything in 21 for doing little amounts of work. I'm not saying all good cards should be in packs but honestly all good cards shouldn't be free either. IN 21 Verlander, Degrom, Ryan etc, were all free and that game became unbearble to play seeing the same pitcher over and over again. As for the pay to win part, Any casual player can spend loads of money on this game and still be a barely above 500 player. Stop with the madden and 2k comparisons becuase as someone who plays both of those games, this game is nothing like those at all, were getting 30 free diamonds in TA Chapter 2 next week, patience people, you cant say you want a power creep and then complain you can't get instant good cards thats not how it works. As for the C0-Op glitch, keep it in the game, might encourage more people to try it out, I for one have never played co-op but it sounds interesting using actual 99's. I'm not trying to tell anyone how to feel but this cycle of constant whining a month into every year of MLB the Show has got to stop, this forum has turned into a complete crying line, or calling for devs to be fired over mistakes. My goodness people relax.

    I agree it’s not pay to win. I spend money and suck.

    However co-op using real 99’s isn’t fun.
    Play with your team just liked ranked. It’s the whole point of the mode, not to with 99’s.

    but co op isnt like ranked, co op in my opinion should be a fun mode. honestly co op should be capped at all star, create a fun mode for those who just want to play with friends.

    @suzypuff14 You are an upset little boy, patience. If you dislike it, don't play it, simple fix for you.

    @chucky97___ of course you want to play with your friend and have fun, but why would you want to keep playing the same teams over and over with everyone using real 99’s? That’s boring as hell.

    @Debow13 From the sounds of it, you can use every card in the game in Co-op, why not try out every card in the game fir some trial runs without having to play BR, That way you know if you'll like a certain card in the future.

    Co-op (when working) is my personal favorite H2H mode, I’ve got a couple friends I hop on with and it’s just pure fun, win or lose.

    I just can’t spend 20 hours a day on the game to “grind” for decent cards. You either buy them because you work so much or you don’t work and you can spend every waking hour playing. No in between in my opinion

    @chucky97___ you’re suppose to be picking from the cards on your team though. That was the purpose of the mode. Not for every card. And again I said it’s playing the same team over and over using real 99’s

    It's not pay to win, hasn't been in a long time, now it's play to win.....pretty much everyone, including myself has a full line up of diamonds 5 days after release. All you need to do is put a little time in. Personally I liked it better when you had to grind with bronze and silvers to unlock golds and diamonds but what do I know. I do wish ranked seasons had a cap limit on rosters like some events do, it would add more strategy and make managing your line up mean something.

    @Dookie-Possum 20 hours a day on the game for decent cards? That’s a reach.

    @chucky97___ while I agree with you, you are going to get crushed for this. Over the past few years the forum has turned into pretty much an entitled whine fest. Years ago this was a good place to come for tips and strategies etc. Those days are pretty much gone.

    I play maybe 4 hour during the week TOTAL, then I’m able to play for maybe 8 hours TOTAL during the weekend. I finished ranked program, all other programs, maxed out TA, and have gotten all player rewards from events, and haven’t spent a dime in game. The idea that you have to play 20 hours a day to earn everything in the game is ridiculous.

    This. I have a newborn which drastically cut down my time to play

    I maybe get a couple hours a day. If you know how to grind efficiently, you can have everything you mentioned done

    I have TA done, all other programs done, completed the first event, nearing WS, completed the BR program up to the flawless pack and up to 13 wins on the new event

    Admittedly, I’ve gone 10-0 already so having skill definitely helps you progress faster but the idea that you have to put in an insane amount of hours daily to complete things just isn’t the case for the vast majority of people on this forum

    I’m pretty average, hover around 700 in ranked, can’t go flawless to save my life lmfao but even with my average skills, I’ve completed everything I need to with 9 days to spare. I have a wife and a child at home and try not to impede on OUR time and still able to complete everything. On games like Madden, I lose interest quickly bc I don’t spend crazy money and I don’t have a ton of time to grind, so my team is leaps and bounds behind after a few weeks. Never have that issue with this game
