Diamond Quest Sucks
-
@trfatboy22_PSN you’re saying people who like a challenge should only be rewarded by playing online? 2 very different things.
Again, it’s a competitive game mode. You should be rewarded more for challenging yourself more. It will just take more time if you’re playing on lower levels. Not everybody who plays on Legend wants to play H2H.

@YOSHI24_XBL Most of them are either 1) pitching 2) a showdown or 3) get an RBI when you have a runner on third. I wouldn't consider MOST challenges to be hard. Sure some you do have to get lucky for but I think the newer DQ's have been better about not giving unrealistic moments. But of course you are reading posts from players who can't play on GOAT or Legend. That's what we've been saying the whole time. And we shouldn't have to. Again, BR Flawless, RS and WC already cater to that. DQ doesn't need to also.
I will leave it with this post, since you do not want to get it how DQ works …
Last time: This is a mode about percentages.
Want higher percentages? Do good, increase it…
Want to increase it even more? Try a harder difficulty.
You failed? Try again.
You did not get the big reward? Try again and increase the percentages (see above)
Do not want to have a challenge? Well, then accept lower percentagesWelcome to DQ

@YOSHI24_XBL I could realistically play this 100 times and have bad luck every time while someone else plays it once and gets lucky. That….is…..garbage.

this is not true … because nobody is a bad coin guy
. Do not be to hard on yourself -
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a post here that gathered so many people I’d like to be friends with and so many people that probably got stuffed in lockers when they were in school. I also find it alarming that there are so many people apparently being held at gunpoint to play a game they hate. Bizarre times.
-
@YOSHI24_XBL Which is why this thread exists...DQ Sucks. It is inherently flawed as you just pointed out. We understand how it works and it is bad. You trying to tell us it isn't bad by telling us the bad things about it doesn't make it not bad.
-
@yankblan_PSN A challenge is different for everyone. Playing on higher difficulties already rewards you with more PXP and XP and Stubs. You already are able to go into Play vs CPU and get diamonds. You already can spend 10 minutes on a DQ that Takes us an Hour. And that's not counting the online modes.
So yes, i don't think you need more.

@tear4eddy_PSN Tell me your an [censored]-hole without telling me you’re an [censored]-hole.

Wtf, I did not say that … do your interpretation as much as you want, but I am not responsible for you not getting things … You would be the first to complain that it is dumb to play a mode for over an hour for a card you can get at quick-sell
… (which would happen at 100%).Anyways … I will leave you with your pointless frustration saying: This mode is here to stay (like this), go live with it

welcome on my block-list… what an awesome feature here (I just realised you were the RBI-guy too … I should have known better)
-
@YOSHI24_XBL But you did though. You just pointed out all the things that we don't like about the mode. You can not care about it if you don't But we do and literally all the reasons you listed are why we don't like it.
And if you think I wouldn't play a mode to get a card so I don't have to pay 1500 stubs you are sorely, sorely mistaken. I would play the mode if it was a bronze card. Rather than spend the stubs. Doesn't mean I have to like the mode. Just saying "you don't have to play it" is a cop out when people are bringing up legitimate issues they have with the mode. Again you don't have to agree. However you are trying to tell us why it's not bad by using the very things we don't like about it. And that is the point.
-
@trfatboy22_PSN He doesn’t get the point. And that’s the point.

next up: I do not want to play ranked season because I have to play against real people. „We“ do not like that (btw. who and how much are „we“
?) … Have fun and try to read again my post again -
The thing that bugs me the most is that they could make just a small tweak and everyone would be happy. Keep it as is for people’s first attempt. if you’re good at the game and can get the percentage up high enough to get the rewards, great. If, however, you make it through and beat the stadium challenges only to not get the rewards, then on your next run the percentages start a little bit higher. They could even do this without announcing it and the good players wouldn’t even know anything changed, so we can protect their precious “I’m really good at a game and you’re not” egos.
-
@YOSHI24_XBL What a power flex…telling someone you’re going to block them. Lol
-
Well you may be correct sir. It’s been a game I’ve loved for years and I really hate that it’s actively pushing me away. I’m a baseball guy and the game has been a good way to relax and stay connected to it in real life up until recently.
Since you always seem to enjoy acting smarter than everyone in this forum I can imagine you are a treat to deal with in real life. That friend or family member that is always right or better than everyone else no matter what.
If you want me to acknowledge your superiority over me in this forum and this game it’s dually noted oh wise one. Gold star and kudos to you.
-
I wish I could use peanuts to purchase a percentage boost for rewards. It would be cool if 1000 peanuts increased the reward chance by 1% or something.
-
@Virusrev_MLBTS That could be a middle ground since peanuts do transfer if you don’t get the cards.

SD Studios has no respect for its players time. I’ve done the most recent Diamond Quest 5 times, and have had over 50% chance to get the epic cards every time, with one time being at 63% and another at 70%. I’ve gotten the Ottavino card once, and haven’t gotten the Jung card at all. I hate wasting my time and that’s what this mode is. If I complete the map and don’t get the cards, my percentage should automatically be increased for my next run. Stop making people grind for so long you get one card because the game decides it just doesn’t want to give the card out. Please SD Studios…please start respecting your players time. We’re the ones who pay you f***ing salary.
Soooo I don't think you understand how odds and statistics work. Just because you have a 70% chance doesn't mean it's guaranteed. Also feel like you are probably leaving out alot of information because I played this exact quest twice today. And got each 1 at a time on each play through on Allstar (58% rewards chance) after completing every challange and beating the sweaper. So either A) you are super unlucky or B) you are losing your stadium challenge your rewards. Also the majority or the player base loves DQ. It has been an awesome way to make stubs, packs, and rewards to sell when you do get them.

@yankblan_PSN no, conquest is different. There are no perks or penalties in conquest, and the rewards in conquest are guaranteed upon winning. I like the idea of Diamond Quest; I just don't like that it heavily relies on moments and showdown.
