Mandatory showdown for Milestone program
-
Going out with a dumb move I see
No reason to do this to people let us complete however we choose
-
That would make sds to likable they need to throw a middle finger up to the community before the year ends
-
Am I the only one that likes showdown more than endless moments and these get 15 base hits with LF type missions?
-
I agree it’s kind of a [censored] move by SDS but it wasn’t too bad. I personally dislike showdowns a lot but this one you get to load your lineup with 99 diamond hitters, the best diamond hitting perks, and just have to score 6 runs with 20 outs against Sale and then Skubal. I was able to complete it without too much hassle with double digit outs to spare against both of them. Hopefully this helps put some of you at ease so you can give it a try with relative confidence. Best of luck to everyone. You got this.

Doesn’t matter how easy people say it struggle id rather do a repeatable pxp

Sure, if they are going to make Moments or Showdowns optional for you shouldn't they also make PXP and Stat missions optional for those gamers who don't want to grind with players they would never use otherwise? I really have no desire this late into the year to spend time playing with various Padres, Phillies, Brewers, Braves or Tigers to get the same number of points that I can get with moments in a fraction of that time.
Seems only fair.

lol showdown can be optional with pxp missions so if they add what I said then u get what I want and so do I
-
I don’t see the big deal. 20 stars worth of progress for 10 minutes of play.
-
The big deal is having to play showdown to complete a program when with the other programs you had a repeatable mission. They shouldn't force us to do the showdown just to complete the program because no one except for a few like doing showdown
-
Personally, I don't have the itch to play baseball at this point, so there's no need to finish this program.
I can beat most Showdowns, but I hate the way they make me feel. There's just a scummy cheapness to these that I'll avoid if necessary. I'll try, but maybe on an off work day. -
The concept of showdowns is fantastic. I just wish there was at least one midpoint and less RNG. I'll still do them when necessary though.
-
Normally with showdowns you only have to get a couple runs against the "final boss".
Here, it's 6 runs. Idk, I have some trouble hitting lefty/lefty (no such trouble righty/righty) & you usually get at least a couple lefties in your lineup.
Sale wasn't too bad. His slider was really easy for me to track, but Skubal is a pain. -

First time this has happened to me but oh well
-
@nymets1987_PSN I agree with you it also lets me grind other programs that way
-
Honestly I'd rather do a conquest than a stupid showdown I can build a squad i haven't used and have fun with the game instead of the predicted showdown that the rng is already set the second you load it up instead of veteran this one feel more like Allstars tbh

No, I like easier showdowns much more than those endless, get 30 hits with … missions …
Guys, I am not good and I usually need most of the outs … I got these two with over 10 outs left. Try it before complaining too early

Everyone has their preference the repeatable pxp mission should be a given everytime
-
I too was able to beat it, first try with double figure outs remaining. Try to take the diamond 'vision perk,' if you can. Choose speed guys.
-
Maybe next year they can add some OR missions
Get 15 HR with Phillies OR 500 pxp with Milestone Schwarber
Complete Milestone Showdown OR SDS Conquest -
I finally was able to complete the showdown after 6 tries, it is still unnecessary to have to complete that showdown just to complete the program. To me it was difficult against Skubal but easy against Sale, I was able to get to the final showdown against Skubal each time but always ended up losing with the score tied or down by 1
