    @Teak2112_MLBTS I’d rather not feel like I wasted time for a bunch of bronze 1 player packs.

    I've given up on it for now, my silvers/golds are outmatched by these diamond pitchers that keep appearing

    And live series packs from the stadiums, but if the rate goes up then you didnt waste your time

    Basically my proposal of a 10% rate increase would guarantee you the top card in 10 games, plus the time it takes to beeline to the stadium. On average you would be getting the card by the 5th run or so. the people that can handle legend or goat can take their time and fill the board to get their 100% chance on the first go.

    I can handle Ubaldo but Johan wrecks me. Also Fernando has this weird ability to perfectly dot corners with screwballs.

    Every pitcher in this game has the ability to perfectly dot the plate, I don't mind diamond pitchers doing it but commons and bronzes do it way to much.

    It's just showdown, with extra steps, with an occasional actual game thrown in, but with non-guaranteed rewards. I really can't remotely understand why so many people seem to like it. I'm playing a baseball game to play games of baseball, not showdowns and moments. It's literally all the worst parts of the game combined in one mode.

    This is exactly why I’m staying away from it for now. I got the cards I needed for Roki and I don’t see the value in the bronze /silvers even if the occasional gold gets pulled.

    I played it once and got Bazzana. Never played above Rookie. I just completed every square so I think my chances at getting Bazzana by the end was 70% or so.

    I hate DQ, for most of the above reasons. The slot machine really resonates. I don't want to grind this thing (while not getting PxP or mission progress) to then not even get the card. I want those pipeline cards but at this point I'm thinking it just a waste of time and I just won't finish the collection

    @trfatboy22_PSN you get stats missions progress (no PXP missions) from the games and mini-bosses. Not from Moments.

    I definitely agree with the idea of chances going up after each run. SDS touted this as a rogue-like mode, and in most rogue-like games, you become stronger each time you do a run so that you can eventually win.

    To expand on more choice:
    Its fine for some squares to force a moment or mini boss on us, but I think having a choice between two or three options for at least some of the square is better. A lot of people would rather play a 3 inning game than a moment, so give that choice sometimes (I can understand not forcing more games on people as some may prefer DQ because there are fewer games).

    I enjoyed diamond quest fine but I feel like there is no guarantee that my time will be rewarded so I'm not really doing it...i feel confident I'll beat all showdowns and get the breakout pack at the end.

    I can do quest and maybe get this or they card at the end (maybe) or I can buy card off the market for cheap once it's been out a while.

    I've I'm playing the online programs, player programs, conquest, mini seasons, etc I'm knocking out alot of things at once but also guaranteed to get pxp, xp, stubs, packs, etc.

    I want to keep progressing along the xp path in an efficient way

    Imagine being a newby to the series and you land on the sweeper and accept the game, not knowing it’s on legend.

    For those that have played DQ a bit, does the Sweeper follow a set path and just repeat it? I avoided it while playing the Tutorial, but followed him around to back track and clear some spaces near the start. When I got back up towards the top of the board I got into a situation where I could go Down or Left. Sweeper could go Up and Meet me, Right and Meet me or Down and continue the same path it had already taken. It went down basically ignoring me...didn't know if this was just random luck of the draw or if it has a pattern it follows.

    Yes, it just goes in the same pattern on repeat.

    I'm not new to the game but I got the sweeper on legend and was quite dumbfounded about my bad luck lol

    To me it’s the least enjoyable mode and I was done with it after playing it a few times. It’s just not rewarding or particularly fun, so what’s the point?
