But I would really be surprised if they do anything about XP, I think they believe XP is working the way it is intended.
Oh I agree 100% it's working the way they intended...for the hardcore grinders. It's slowed them down a bit...but it's hurt the majority of the player base that doesn't grind like that. I guess SDS thought it was better to punish the many to slow down the few.
Yes, but if they combat it by dropping programs with big XP amounts at the end of the season, it may be ok. I was upset with it when I was at 300k thinking I wouldn't make it. Now I am like 875k, I think I will. So I am holding off on my final judgment of XP this season until its over and we hear from the people who didn't make it to a boss.
Look at you, being all logical and making sense and being fair. GTFOH with that nonsense /s
Nah that's probably the best way to go about it. I'm gonna do my best to keep that mindset, just tough because I do feel rather disappointed in this year's iteration
Hey, it took me a bit to come to that conclusion. I was very unhappy at first, still am for the most part, but I do see a path for righting the ship, but nothing can be done on our part other than give our feedback and wait and see.

@chucky97___ cry, loser. You're a victim when you buy a product that you were told was one think but when you get it it's absolutely NOT what you paid for. You were scammed. Just cause you suck em off while ignoring it and they give you a little treat for you enjoy from time to time doesn't mean they are doing a good job as developers. Stop the simping or at least [censored] off to enjoy your SDS gurgling elsewhere. It is all proving my point as you keyboard warrior for these pigs running the Show.
-
@chucky97___ how much they pay you to post on the forums? I might actually do that too if it's good enough. I mean I don't basement dwell under my parents bedroom like you can but I might be able to add time to this forum if a paycheck is involved.
-
@chucky97___ Did you feel like a big man typing that? You telling me your parents don't make you angry when they don't give you ketchup to dip your dino nuggies in for supper? Dude, stubbing my toe makes me angry. I'm allowed to get angry at a video game.

no you're allowed to be angry, but you are treating this game like it is life or death. It's not that deep bud.

So no one is allowed to enjoy the game? I like baseball, I enjoy playing, is it it perfect? No. The only keyboard warrior here is you, I have said nothing in disrespect towards you.
-
Just a personal opinion but I think it's absurd that a month an half into release and just a month into baseball season we're at 99s. In the words of Syndrome from the incredibles, "when everyone is super then nobody is". I liked it better when we had to grind with bronze and silvers to obtain golds and then grind those to obtain diamonds.
-
@Ledfoot_19 welp, good news for you the power creep resets in 29 days, and no one was ever playing online grinding ranked using bronzes and silvers.
-
I personally am excited to see some 99s that are accessible and hopefully we get to see some new cards and maybe card types with it. I am not extremely happy with the game so far and the way it seems to have turned away from programs and grinds to more and more packs without putting these packs into any programs I am looking forward to getting some 99s before the power creep reset. My only hope is that the wild card spots are actually obtainable in season 2 so we can use a few of our S1 cards. There was alot of potential for this game with the power creep back and keeping it fresh with new seasons but the execution has been terrible and has gone away from what people actually enjoyed about the game

if you think about it, we use to only get one TA per season, now we are getting 3 TA's per season. thats almost over 90 free cards, including 30 free 99's, boss packs and collection packs.

True, but we are all getting the same cards, in order to get different cards you have to buy packs. It's actually not great for lineup diversity.
-
@nflman2033 you dont have to buy packs, you can be wise with stubs and buy from the market, the best cards shouldn't be free.
-
I think you should be able to earn the best cards, should all cards be able to be earned in programs, no. But the majority should be which is the point of a grind and if there is a new pack you should be able to earn one somewhere which is why there is a base and a rare round. Just because it’s a program doesnt mean the program has to be easy. Being able to earn the best cards and not having to pay for them was what made this game so great
-
@Ms740929 if all the best cards are able to be earned, is that great for line up diversity?
-
Different cards are available in different ways (World Series reward, Flawless Awards, Events) so yes lineups will be different as some players can not obtain all of those things so they can not earn every card. I did not say there should be no packs but I think the amount of packs this year has been excessive with no way to obtain them other than stubs. Even if a pack is earned you are not guaranteed the best card and if you do pull a rare you do not get all of them
-
TA has 99s this Friday?
-
@K9_21owl yeah they showed three in a short clip during the last content drop they were all 99 hyper series

Actually a few years back you had too if you wanted to unlock better cards. Before moments existed you had to achieve a certain amount of hits or HRs, or strike outs with say a bronze Robin Yount to unlock a silver Yount, and then you had to achieve something with that to achieve gold and so on. Sure most people did that grinding offline in conquest but they did it to get that Diamond Yount or whomever for their Ranked online team. It was way more fun than the last 3 years

I still have a silver in my starting TA lineup and a few bronzes in the bullpen, but I run a theme team.
My best reliever has been silver Brooks Raley, although admittedly with the captain boost he is closer to a diamond anyway.
