Let's see if this works. AL Central's Extra-Base Attack
-
I was ok with them trying something "different", but it feels like "Showdown". So to me... Not very different. But I did them all so, 10,000 easy XPs per division.
-
These are not moments, they are basically the stupid situations they used to fill the showdowns with when they first started that mode. Another god awful idea in a year stuffed with them.
-
I did the NL East division one on the 1st try saw what the rest of them consisted of and said no way I'm doing that

I've made the right decision this year. I'm watching hockey and occasionally checking in here to see if anything substantial has changed, and I can see that's not the case.
-
I finished them, but saw the positive as: 'during double XP, we do get the points for all the retries!'
What becomes of the ones who cried about the TB ones that recently got nerfed?
There will be no nerfing or cutting in half this time......hahahahahahaha.I still love Moments, tbh. I'm looking forward to the Extreme ones.......
at least I'm saying that now 🤪 -
They made these as easy as can be, come on guys , they literally take a maximum of 5 minutes each to complete.
-
You can complete all divisions without any of the moments. Getting strikeouts and on base with any team gets you way more progress than any individual moment.
-
And do the player exchanges too. Plenty of cheap 95+ OOP players for 5,000-6,000 stubs. Buy one of them, exchange it => 20,000 TA points

There was one where they picked 8 righties against a righty pitcher. Thats not easy as can be. Thats just annoying.
The 4 XBH took me several tries (granted some of those were aborted after the first inning) but the others I got first shot. I dont enjoy facing CPU Staumont (I dont do well with dotted 102 fast balls which is 90% of Staumonts pitches against me) but luckily its Soto for innings 3 and 4.

Staumont was a b*tch! To the point I almost picked his card for my first ALC card.
Just use the same side match-ups as glorified BP. I've gotten pretty good lefty on lefty, but still struggle righty-righty, and am always looking to improve. -

The 4 xbh took me a couple tries, but i still found even if you failed a couple, overall still faster to complete everything this way then by doing multiple easier moments for each division.
-
Not being a showdown fan (because of the entry fee), I'm the tiniest bit glad to see these moments to give me some practice on them. Make that very very tiny.

@beatlesnews_PSN i
I don't play online. I knocked out both AL and NL showdown in about an hr. Focus in and look for your pitch. Don't try to cover the entire zone. Don't swing at the pitches down. CPU will double you off. Be patient. Hunt your pitch. Trick is,, don't miss it. Probably only get one. -

I went to my bench and started pinch hitting the right handed hitters, the next inning the CPU brought in Soto. I quit

Yeah, I struggled with this one too.

The entry fee on showdowns is weird. Its a completely trivial amount of stubs, and its a mode that almost no one would want to repeat anyway. There is no reason for it.
-
You make the stubs back very fast and basically double the amount if you beat the showdown
-
@SJR15ITFC_PSN I hadn't thought of that. I just finished the live collection, so now I can do that. Tx.
-
100%, CPU definitely pitches WAY different in these moments...you either strike out looking because they get super generous strike calls, walk, or make weak contact because they won't throw anything close to hittable
-
@sbchamps17_NSW on my version they’ve stacked the lineup full of lefty batters against a left handed starter, and boosted the Mets so they have magnets in their gloves. Usually play on all star and genuinely can’t get more than 2 hits in 5 innings
