I don't like the Larry Walker card, but that could just be me because I can't hit with him, took me 20 minutes just to complete his 1 hit mission and every hit that I thought I got was caught
I can never hit with Walker either but i used his 99 s1 card for the 15 hits with RF mission and went 5-6. And ill probably never use that card again.
I always wondered if you could use S1 cards to complete programs in season 2 and I guess the answer is yes?
-
As long as it doesn't say season 2 only then yes
-
You had to grind some serious hours in S1 to unlock that 99 Larry Walker and now you are expected to grind some more for a 92 version.
That perfectly represents the primary issue people have with the whole Seasons model.

As par for the course with me. I only needed a hit so I blasted a HR to center on the very first pitch.
Then with the player I needed a HR with it took me multiple tries.
Because I don't do all of the team affinities I am kind of struggling with some of the stat missions in the programs. 10 HRs with CFs when my most powerful CF's are 85 Mays and 85 Pollock. I'm chipping away at it and need 3 more but I really want to play with different OFs.

Yeah... only the pxp missions need to be done with S2 cards. The stat missions (25 Ks with RP, 15 Hits with NL RF, 7 HRs with AL 1B) can be done with any card. Same goes for the Season Award Drops every Friday.

You're really missing out. I just looked at the season 1 TA and there are 10 CFs. The best ones imo Druw Jones (NLW 2), Jasson Dominquez (ALE 2) Jim Edmonds (ALW 3).

The grind for the all of the TA cards would burn me out though. I think I have accumulated a few packs in my last couple of play sessions so maybe I will grab one of them if I can

It was exactly as I expected, something that can be knocked out in under 2 hours. I'll be back to franchise mode in no time for the rest of the week waiting for this week's drop which will also take less than 2 hours.

You guys are lucky you got through the extreme moment. CPU keeps bunting on me at the 9th out and then homers in. Happened to me 3 times right now. Thought it was a glitch till I read this.
5th time now I’m getting squared up on my last out every time wtf ?? -
Can never have enough Larry Walker cards

Finished it today. Went really fast by adding all star series cards to events and just playing regularly, adding the cards you get from the program along the way. Finished in about 1.5 hours. Overall mid program
-
I just play the game and whatever rewards pop up just pop up. Events and programs don't excite me and content drops arnt what keeps me playing. Big meh imo.

10 conquest games max with an entire AS lineup. Assuming you get to 500pxp each game. If you do any moments or get any of the stat missions it will easily be less.
-
That's what I did and didn't even have to do the 10 HRs with AL 1st basemen and I did it via the US conquest map so that way I could use season 1 cards

I pulled the 91 over Eddie Murray from a Headliners pack last night...absolutely raked for me, I knocked out 8 of the 10 HR required with him.
-
I like the program but I don't like the fact they put Larry Walker's card in the game so early since we just had the chance to get his 99 card. I feel like they should make the legendary cards the only cards of that person until at least season 4. I feel it'd make those that grinded feel more appreciated for the dedication towards the game. Just my opinion...
-
Carlos Pena seems to be missing his card art. I also had a HR by Jasson Dominguez count towards the 1B ones.
-
I noticed that as well with the Pena card art missing
