9/27/24 'Career Tribute' Program
-
Its a shame. SDS releases the first proper program of the year, but its going to be received negatively because they dot have a repeatable xp mission.
This is the big issue the last two years: People like me have been crying all year for big programs. People last year didnt like you needed to do all the player specific missions. Its not remotely hard to please both people
I still personally love this and feel its by a very large margin the best program of the year, Id go as far to say its the first truly good program of the year (season recap was a lot of fun too, but it was more just free packs for stuff youve already done...its a shame this wasnt done in s2). But people will be unhappy by something they could have easily avoided

If I'm to be honest, I'm probably feeling a little salty towards sds. All year in almost every program you must do everything unless there is an extreme moment or pvp missions. Everything is on vet instead of rookie. All year catering to extreme and PVP has left me feeling like SDS is giving players like me the middle finger and telling me I'm not welcome or wanted unless I want to do everything the hard and least fun way possible ( extreme, PVP, vet ).

Non skippable 8 TB missions. Nope
-
This pillar card has no power, everything is a line out to the infield or a ground ball

I havent felt this at all. Clemente program is like this, but most programs have far more missions than needed. The season awards programs could take awhile, but then I usually buy a few off the Topps now cards because I dont use stubs for packs otherwise. Ive probably done less than half of Topps Now moments
I havent touched online play since early s2 and probably never will again as its only fun with a good match and the missions are far too skewed at being good at hitting.

We're not required to pitch any 9-inning Perfect Game. Just finish off one.
You guys are high as hell. These Moments aren't hard.They also aren’t “easy.” They need to make things easier for casuals or they aren’t going to get a much larger fan base

Almost every program is like this or as you said buy progress from the shop. Buy the cards with real money, I forgot that one

Just use Directional to help with the Pillar 8 TB mission. I didn't, but it can help. Custom BP to get better righty vs. righty can help as well......

Being disingenuous helps no one. Knock it off.

I think its just the Pillar one?
-righty righty
-only decent power
-not guaranteed 4 at bats because lower in lineupAbreau's is also righty righty but he is higher in the lineup and the ball jumps off his bat at least
Still, 2XBH/6+ TB movents should never be same side I feel. I get the Pillar one was celebrating specifically againsy Scherzer, so just make it a single HR moment.

https://youtu.be/Hqw6OEvTrNk?si=fsBFQ_8XQokRTSLxI can't even get the ball in the air with him and I'm using directional, I got the 1st moment done with the HR but definitely struggling with the 8 total bases one, I keep restarting if I don't get a HR in the 1st at bat because you only get 3 plate appearances in that moment

It's called being honest. Go look and check. take out the extreme moments, all pvp or collections that require packs in the shop. Almost every program this year has required you to complete almost everything once those 3 things are taken away.

I would much rather have a repeatable mission than having to do all the moments. So far the closest I got to 8 total bases was 5, at least make pillars card with power because he swings a noodle for a bat
-
Saying you need to buy cards with real life money is not remotely honest
-
I’m sorry though, any regular program that isn’t moment specific should have something repeatable. Game is already a grind and I have other things to do in life than focus on all these programs

I got it because I got a 4th at bat against a lefty
What I learned today about Kevin Pillar's career: he never did anything important vs a lefty.

I knew people would complain about this but of course people complain about everything. Some people complain if they deem the programs to easy and finish them off in a few hours. So they give us something more substantial to tackle that heaven forbid it might take some folks a few days or even weeks and another group complains.
It took me two hours to do all of the moments. Some that I thought would be easy ended up being hard and some of those I thought would be hard ended up being easy.
These is a career program so it makes sense to have key moments from the players careers. Personally I am dreading trying to keep track of the 20 or so missions that I now need to finish in order to finish the program. But I will get it done. Maybe not today or tomorrow but I don't need to rush it.

Why is every pitch from the CPU now in on the hands?

Personally I love it, and I think there is really one moment that I feel is a bit much (Pillar vs Scherzer, 1 HR would have been fine here), but I didnt have too much trouble completing it personally
I think if they had a repeatable mission or a conquest map it would be praised by most
