@Dolenz64_XBL While I agree with you, you can still collect him. The season 1 collection hasn’t gone away. You’ll just have to spend your stubs.
I wanted the Willie Mays card so badly in Season 1 I focused on collecting Season 1 cards instead of live series. It definitely took me a while but it’s possible.
Sure, It's possible but it is not likely that those who don't have him yet will ever earn his 99 card.
Neither am I asking that they give everyone a 99 Mays. I am just saying that if they do anything it should be something that is reasonably achievable to all.
All that said I am not expecting anything more than what we get tomorrow in the storyline.
-
Getting the 99 Mays was an accomplishment. I think it would be awesome if they made it a core card for those who earned him as a tribute to the player.

I like the idea of super charging this new card and I would Super charge it to 95 for a week then bring it down to a 92 until about midway through TA S2 part 2 then bring it back up to 95 or 96 and leave it for the remainder of this season. Then when season 3 starts keep it boosted to 90 then at every TA reveal bump it up -- like this
TA part 1 -- 90
TA part 2 -- 93
TA part 3 -- 97but even as I say this I think they will release a shop card of Mays 93/4 Core making this idea just bloated -- LOL

@squishiesgirl_PSN most people who want something for free dont care about the people that earned that something.
-
@LIONED-33_XBL "earned" lol; it's still just a video game we're talking here, we're not asking a billionaire to give 75% of his wealth to the poor. I have his card and I couldn't care less if they gave it for free.

I earned the new Mays card. Wish it was higher than an 85 but glad that they at least supercharged it to a 93 for a few days. I wish the supercharge was longer or that they slowly ramp up the supercharge over the coming weeks, but honestly I don't expect it.
The storyline was pretty easy to finish and my only disappointment was that they could not get their graphics updated in time and that the game listed him as 1931-Present.

I am highly disappointed as well. What is the harm in just changing his S1 to core? A 99 core card would be used all year, while this 85 will be forgotten in 5 days. Just sad

@yankblan_PSN if you've played the game you earn him. sorry it was a lot of work getting to him. the underlying issue with seasons work.

You know, after thinking about it, I take back what I said about wishing it was higher than an 85 and hoping that they continually supercharge it. It's fine as it is and the nice banner that they added in game is fine.
My original statement and the cries to make his 99 card a core card really comes off, to me, as people saying "This legend has died, now how can I gain an in game benefit from his death".

His 85 card will be forgotten in a week by most. What's wrong with honoring him all year?

If SDS wants to do something more to honor him in game then great, I am all for it.
That, at least to me, seems like a totally different scenario than myself and others selfishly asking what benefit do we gain by his death.

I took your comment as a slight against my change his core to 99 comment. I just think that Willie Mays was truly one of the best to ever play baseball. Right there with Babe and Hank and anyone else you can think of. The way he is remembered should reflect that. Changing his 99 to core is a good first step IMO.
-
Supercharged for 24 days would have been appropriate
-
One of the best players of all time gets supercharged to a 93 for 5 days(and not even a good 93). A no name player hits a walkoff and gets a better card for the same amount of time. You have to give Willie a maxed out card for a week or two. SDS has really lost it this year.

I put in the work to get him and do not care if people who didn’t get him. It’s a game after all.
And don’t forgrt, you’ll also get the new card and would be able to use it all year if they decide to make it core.

Only for you and me, and the small % of the player base that got his S1 card.

Guys just let the man rest
-
@LIONED-33_XBL I don't think you understood where I was getting at? I EARNED the card, like you stated, but if they gave it away for free to others who haven't, why would I care? It's not as if I worked 60 hours a week at a job and they gave my deserved promotion to the boss' slacker son.

I was going to put the Supercharged Mays in a lineup, since I'm finishing up TA NL West, but said 'his stats won't count,' and didn't put him in!

That's because he is not a Giant on that particular card.
