How about a nameplate that that counts how many years you've completed the Collection? (similar to the World Series Rings/BR nameplates)
Outside of that, sounds perilously close to "gimmie gimmie gimmie" whining.
We are consumers investing in a product that makes us happy. If we are not happy then we as consumers have every right to tell the makers of the game of improvements that would keep us happy.
No happiness= No more spending money
Its that simple and if they want to keep fans then make us happy. If you think its whining then that's your own personal opinion and that's okay. But, us that spend money should be entitled to at least a subscription high diamond pack for investing time and money into this product that keeps their lights on as a thank you.
"should be entitled" and that, my friend, is where this post has gone terribly wrong. If I go to Wal-Mart and I don't like the price of pork, I buy something else. I don't go to the front, ask for a manager, and tell them I'm entitled to a free loaf of bread.
If you are buying pork from Walmart then your opinion is null and void.
man, this had so much potential too! My suggestion: The next time you want to drop a one liner, thinking you'll become internet famous with your slightly above average level of creativity, make sure you have digested the entire analogy and conversation taking place.
This is the equivalent of farting, because lets be honest, farting is hilarious! But, you chose to fart in the middle of a funeral instead of on the playground with your friends.
If you think two thirds of the people in this forum "digested the entire analogy" then you are definitely on the wring site. This is a low level forum for a rubbish baseball video game where people vent, troll and discuss a video game. Get off your high horse Aristotle. You got way too worked up about this thread. Seriously though? Pork? Walmart? Cringe.

What about those of us who do not spend the extra money and still finish the collections? Do we deserve the high diamond pack as well. It is not that hard to flip cards, save the free stubs you earn to do the collection. If they did the Hi diamond pack that card would have to be non-sell and any duplicate of that card you would only be able to quick sell. Hahah. You do not have to spend extra money to complete collection. Is it really rewarding just to buy every card buy purchasing stubs with cash??????????
If you have all the time in the world more power to you and enjoy that since its your time you are spending. For those who don't have the leisure of spending hours on end looking at the market flipping commons and silvers for a few stubs no thanks I rather spend my time doing other productive things in life and just buy the cards straight up.
I just cant fathom why people don't wanna fight for things in a game where we are in control. Hunters and hunted people! Don't be the hunted and fight for what you believe in!

Yes if you reward a spender then you definitely reward a no money spent guy. Its about the end achievement of completing the sets. Whether you have children and a full time career and can spend extra cash to complete collections you are entitled to the same reward as the guy who flips hours on end to achieve the same outcome. Not everyone has the money to buy stubs and not everyone has the time to flip a fake stock market. To some people, their time is way for valuable than working a video game market. On the flip side, someone who flips might find it appalling that someone can spend real cash on a video game. I see both sides and that is why both should be rewarded if there ever was a reward, which I'm not saying there should be.

SDS give plenty of cards and stubs in this game. I do not have a problem if SDS chooses to give out a high Diamond pack for collection as long as it is given to everyone who complete collections not just those who put extra money into the game. I have no issue with people who put extra in the game. Your money you can spend it how you like. That Diamond if they did it like I said should be non sell and if you get a duplicate you should not be able to sell on the market.

See theres an idea that SDS should look into. There's tons of arguments and solutions that can be implemented to make this work. Now a proposal is presented to SDS and we can see this come to light.

I also think that the Stubs they give us for the collections of a team should be different for each team. The dodgers have 3 diamonds and so many Golds. and Tigers highest Rated player is a Silver. Collecting the Dodgers should be about 5,000 back in stubs and the Tigers can be the 1,500. You the Angel with Trout always going for the most stubs that collection should be worth 10,000 stubs once collected. Each team should very in stubs based on the value of the Cards in the collection.

Hey guys! Come over and take a look! You wanna see where the worst players in the league hang out??? Lol
-
The idea of the high diamond being non-sell would be a good idea. Just allow everyone to get closer to completing collections. I will eventually get there with World series and 12 wins, but to start the season with a high diamond would honestly help those NMS, Market Flippers, and people who spend $1,000 nigh one. Save someone a lot of money, time and effort. Thanks for the great responses guys!

SDS made some cards non-sell (or at least non-quick sell) and look how well the community reacted!!!
-
Yeah they made common, bronzes non-sell. that was the problem. If i got a high diamond pack on night one and got Mike Trout, he would be inserted into Center field for months and into the collection. It would honesty help me out if he was non-sell
-
I think with the amount of packs that are available via grinding, or the rewards that are achievable online (ranked, br, events), that they don’t need to give diamonds away to complete collections. My ONLY gripe with collections this year is that we can’t use the cards for exchange missions (FotF, daily missions, player programs). I’m fine with not being able to QS them, but it’s annoying that 99% of these cards will sit in my inventory all year without use. They should be able to be used for mission exchanges.
-
Or maybe make last years collection a card you get to start the year off. We definitly should have gotten something if you completed the wagner collection from last year.
-
If you've proven for years that you're going to complete the collections anyway, why would they give you free cards to make it easier for you?

Exactly! The problem is they made the lower cards non sell which would make the market upside down (ie commons, bronzes more valuable than golds).
Having the ability to get a high diamond reward for being a completionist every "season" or year should net you something like a Trout or Arenado. Listen baseball is becoming if not the least popular sport behind the NBA, NFL, and maybe soccer. Why not entice people with extra rewards and bring in some fans? It makes sense and if you disagree I don't know what to tell ya. Have some optimism and try it before you knock it.

Ok the thing here is you have to spend money first. People have spent money on 17, 18, 19 and now 20! That's a lot of money and their is no thanks from SDS besides a gold pack.
We play this game to win and winning is fun. I do realize that people have fun playing their way and that is okay since everyone else has their own definition of fun. I digress, but the fact of the matter is there should be an entitled subscription pack for those that spend money on the game every year for stubs. If you want the good cards you gotta get stubs right? A lot of people don't wanna spend time flipping the market like a stock broker and that's where the spending of real money on stubs comes in.
Can you name a single game that rewards people who spent money on the years prior?! No. You think people bitccc now you cant even imagine how much worse it would be for the annoying 'no money spent' crowd to shout from the rooftops bc they are at a disadvantage

Well people spend money to get the advantage duh. Spending money speeds up the time it takes to get these cards that we all chase to win games. If a few people complain that's fine, but the people that spend money on the game win and are happy with their purchase it makes SDS happy as long as the money keeps coming in.
Look no one is knocking the no money spent guys as you do whatever you wish with your time and that is respected. But on the other side of things people that don't have the time or patience to spend that amount of time glued to the market flipping commons, and bronzes spend their hard earned money on stubs.
Also I think the no money spent crowd I believe is the least of their concerns as the real money is the ones who spend and invest into diamond dynasty stubs. Just being completely honest and you take that however you wish.
-
That would be really nice. I also wouldn’t mind if they added something similar to MUT rewards for those of us who rip a lot of packs.

They have a product and you decide to purchase it. If revenue is not being generated at the rate that SDS wants then that is the point where they will re-evaluate their model on how they provide cards to the community. It is not up to them to feel bad for the person who spends money on their product. There ultimate goal is to make money just like most other businesses.
Companies are not putting in work to try lose out on money. If things are priced too high or not worth it then people will stop paying which will result in changes from SDS standpoint. As long as the money keeps coming in, nothing will change.

And that is where they keep giving garbage 85 diamond cards that will just ride the bench or be in the collection section never to be seen. Its honestly a lose lose for us and I guess we have to just not spend money on the game since no one wants to fight the man on this.

Except you're not. SDS doesn't read your comments. It's just bitching on the message boards. That's all it is.
