    After we have drop 3 it is time to post some early feedback on the program style itself.

    How have you guys fared?
    How far are you? Will you finish the program?
    What did you like and what didn‘t you like at all?

    As usual, I will try with some

    The Good:

    • I like that there are multiple ways to attack the program. I could do some of the missions with playing some casual events
    • I liked the reward although I sucked with Davis. Pendleton and Varitek did very good for me
    • Good overall rewards

    The Bad:

    • I just realised today that in order to get to 150 points you need to do all the tasks. This included one BR-run I had to pay 1500 stubs for to get to 10 runs. The missions forced me to used cards I did not like a little too often
    • My proposal @SDS: Put in some extra missions to have people decide for themselves what to do (or not). Some people like BR, some events and some people want to use their god squad. Please put in a little more variety

    I don’t like the multiplayer program and this is why…They kept saying “Play your way”…Well not really. I feel as long as you are playing some version of multiplayer you should be able to progress through the entire program. Unfortunately that’s not at all how it works. I like playing ranked seasons, I don’t play BR or Events. Well if I want to complete the program I do…Also I don’t like being forced to use their players on my team. I am a Yankees fan, Do you know how hard it was for me to use Varitek? 😂

    I struggle mightily with picking up pitches and getting timing online with competent pitchers. I liked how things used to be heavily tied to innings, with the stat goals as a way too speed up completion.

    The way it is now incentivizes me to quit early and quit often. Back in 2023 I would play to completion, not under this model.

    I don't like thst the only way, other than paying for a BR entry and hoppingthat you draft them, you can use Davis, Pendleton, and Varitek is in Ranked.

    I don't like Ranked.

    Maybe SDS think end of the program is Bautista and there's bonus pack for surplus stars.. Doesn't agree about it however

    This is how its always been, ws choice is the intended end with the other stuff behind it as a bonus. But when the bonus is a 50 pack people are going to want it...

    I think it’s unfortunate that the event doesn’t allow speed guys so I can get the 15 SB. I don’t do a whole of stealing in ranked

    You can use Cool Papa Bell’s 80 overall gold card from storylines (he’s a two-way player so you find him under secondary positions if you have him) along with Joe Morgan & Richie Ashburn’s diamond cards from the Common Courtesy collection in this event. I definitely have more than 15 steals in this event just from leading off with Bell, hitting a single, and stealing. The event changes tomorrow though.

    @YOSHI24_XBL After everyone universally hated the drops last year in the ranked program, they literally tripled down on it. Worst of all, you can’t even earn a no sell BR/Ranked reward in the program. Wasn’t that the whole purpose of having different drops last year, so it took a while for it to be earnable that way? They’ve gone backwards with all these online modes. Events are worthless. BR is only for the top 1%. I despise what they’ve done to online play.

    I thought the drops were well received last year, but the reason for them is now gone and they shouldn't be there anymore, especially with the voucher system now in place.

    I do not miss the BR and event programs at all. They were both poorly designed. Honestly I feel event works SIGNIFICANTLY better without the sweatiness of flawless rewards, online needed a true casual mode.

    BR I agree is pointless now for 95% of people. Stub cost hasn't adjusted for the stub deflation, I am not going to fork over 1500 to get my [censored] kicked by the flawless grinders.

    @GoozeFn_PSN I did not hate the drops and I did not get any outrage from the youtube-society and/or Twitter. They made it faster. It is kinda the same this year but you have to do everything else to get the 50-bundle (I did and pulled Yordan/Tucker 🙂 ).

    Maybe it is just for program 1, we will see. I would like to see you guys give out a few more suggestions. The BR program will not come back this year but maybe some suggestions make it in the game ;).
    Other than that, we will see how program 2 includes the BR1+Ranked rewards

    @GoozeFn_PSN Events aren't worthless if you don't want to play Ranked. Do I also wish there were rewards? Yes. But do i want them gone? NO!
