How's your XP progress in Inning 2?
-
About to get Griffey jr and okay with only getting one boss each time this year. I’m having more fun and hitting better with Yankees theme team and Lindor at 2B, hitting 350,Ted Williams DH, Varitek C, both at 400. Last year thought had to get every card and complete everything and wasn’t as fun. Almost broke me going for Yordan and extreme moments. Then got the card and barely used him. This team hitting more HRs and better avg than 99 teams had at end of last season with all the captain boosts. Maybe cause I’m just having fun and relaxed. Usually a first pitch swinger and this year more patient

@MrNintendo_MLBTS something else really cool is got 250 hits awhile back around 600 at bats with Jeter. Comparable to a full season and the announcer made a comment about how rare that is. He’s been steady at 390 batting second behind Lindor. Lower HR total than 99 Jeter from last year Yankees theme team. But I know didn’t stay at 390 with him.

I’m just shy of the 2nd boss pack. I’m done all programs and conquest maps but haven’t bothered much with mini seasons. I’m not that excited about the bosses outside of Griffey so I won’t bother buying the 3rd.
I don’t think I’ll get to any wheel spins this inning and I had about 5-7 in the first inning.
100% felt like far less XP available from programs etc this inning and I needed to rely more on my vCPU games grind

I'm only at 142K.
All the XP seems to be in the programs. Completing some of them is the only way I even get to Ozzie Smith this inning. Because even with a double XP week I don't think I would be able to play enough to get there otherwise.
So this week I am back to doing what I said I did not want to do. Playing games with a bunch of players I don't care about to earn rewards to get me to an Ozzie Smith card with nerfed fielding.
I just looked and there are 15 SS cards with better fielding than an Ozzie card for a year he won his 4th of 13 consecutive Gold Gloves. That includes 10 live series cards.
3 hours later I am now at 175K and inching my way to Ozzie.
I think 25K of that 33K were program rewards in the Jackie Robinson program path. Which means the other 8K was from the Jackie Robinson Showdown itself and a 9 inning CPU game.
The "low" DEF rating is weird but with his speed he has played great for me. Plus I hit well with him. I like that card more than the Elly card.
-
532k. Saving the last game from conquest Maps until start of the 3rd. Trying to complete MP program and may play only this with 2x XP until Friday. Might save what’s left of Elly until then. I jsut want as much Deluxe packs as possible for Easter collection.

As I read these comments, I can't but help feeling exhausted and burned out just from y'alls insistence that it's been taxing like an actual job. And for those that have already been spinning the wheel, how the hell do you not feel this about 1000x more? I've mixed in several other games when I can actually play just so I don't feel like [censored] at the end of a gaming session...which should never be the goal.
-
444k, I would've gotten to the 2nd boss yesterday as I usually play a lot on Saturdays but just didn't feel like playing really.
I feel like I play a good bit so kind've wild I likely won't get 1 wheel spin.
I've almost completed multi inning, done all programs, all conquests but this past Friday, all showdowns, haven't done Kris Bryant mini season but don't really want to. I've done a number of diamond quests.
Honestly, Scott rolen being so unattainable and then the roster updates spiking up the live series I lost the urgency
I have 250k stubs and was saving for ohtani... Done with al but still need Soto, ketel, lindor, ohtani and tatis. Don't really want to endlessly play diamond quest to earn another million stubs
-
552k. Definitely less than the 1st inning, but that's to be expected with the TA stuff accounting for a lot of the 1st Inning XP.

I am pretty sure they know exactly how do dose the xp out during the inning. They could easily have given the Elly-program way more xp or put in another small program on Tuesday (beyond the spotlight) … Looks like they wanna keep the 2nd inning slightly lower …
Didn‘t we have two double-xp-stints? -
I know its 'cute' to call them innings in a baseball game, but I just think the length of these is way to short and thought the length of the "battle pass" or "season" (like NBA 2k does since people seem to struggle that sets are a different concept than seasons) or whatever else is a synonym for what is now an inning was perfect in MLB 23
But hey I guess nobody is complaining about the cap (which technically exists I think)...Is Pudgy Panda even hitting the cap this year?

Didn‘t we have two double-xp-stints?Yeah I am sure they do to. The XP in the 1st inning did seem to be huge. I was over a million. The way I look at it is the wheel is just a bonus and I doubt they expect people to be getting like 15 wheel spins.

I have not hit the cap this year. But I also played diamond quest on GOAT difficulty repeatedly for the first few weeks to get live series done quickly, so it’s not like I was trying. GOAT is really not a method for high XP. I never used to consistently hit it before 24. It was just relatively easy last year because of how absurdly low they made it. I finished the 1st inning at 2.2 million XP and am at 1.3 million XP so far in the 2nd inning.
-
@Pergo_MLBTS Exactly. Maybe this is just another „You do not have to get to the end“-thing. Get the two bosses, the rest is for the 10% of players who can play a lot (and have something to shoot for)
-
@YOSHI24_XBL Right, that's basically what I am thinking to.
-
I am just not a fan how they are doing the online reward path this year at all. I do love how they are doing the team affinity where you can just keep earning and earning but would love to see them add negro league or free agent section where you can get vouchers to use on any team affinity.
I agree not enough xp this inning. They over corrected way too much from the 1st inning. I suspect it will be corrected again in the 3rd inning .
-
How about juicing the pack odds a bit while they are at it. The lack of high diamonds is making people restless. They can be rare and not impossible at the same time.
-
Just hit the wheel first time and it was glitched bad. Every space was silver, the 6 spots showing the rewards were blank. I was supposed to get whatever is in in the top right corner but no pack in my inventory. Happened once in first inning. Submitted a ticket and got the generic visual bug email but never received that one either so I’m not holding my breath
-
What a buggy mess this year has been. I know all games have glitches but this year seems abnormally bad.
-
I'm inching my way towards my first wheel spin but the whole basis is to have a week of wheel spins while this inning I'm guess 30-40% won't get to ever one....the emphasis " spin that wheel" is a complete failure if that much of the player base won't even get to that aspect because of nerfed or lack of xp. It's a complete loss.....and the lack of players while others are getting multiple cards is also a loss. Potentially driving more people way. I wonder who they will correct this for next inning
-
@Dolenz_PSN Now you're seeing it Doly lol, how Ozzie is anything other than a diamond fielder in ANY form is a joke.
