Content needs to change temporarily
-
There are tens of thousands of players who are cheating and using bots to grind for free packs while they sleep. Not only have you said nothing about how yall plan to attack this issue, but today yall release more "content" locked behind paid packs and a collection.
Current options are:
A) grind for hours for days and days in miniseaaons, conquest, and online play and hope you get enough good pulls (you wont) so you can sell them and get stubs to buy new cards.
B) fight the market bots and try to make a profit flipping even after yall nerfed it because, "the cheaters are using market bots to flip cards! Lets make flipping harder for everyone instead of address the cheating."
C) give sds actual money for stubs to buy the players.
D) cheat.
Im not advocating for cheating, and if you do cheat you are a complete loser, but cmon sds. If you keep pushing this style of content more and more players are going to chose option D. Especially rn with this being discussed everywhere. You can see it in the comments, people talking about using the software to grind for packs because yall have made any and all alternatives so exhausting and unappealing.
Its a lose lose I suppose. Because even if you made content more easily achievable in hopes of disincentivizing cheaters, the regualr players wouldnt have anything to play for.

Card flipping is a niche thing. Welcome to the world of people who just play the game. This is what 2025 was like for the vast majority of people
-
@go4stros25_PSN What are you even suggesting here?
-
Look the cheating obviously sucks and I hope they are able to stop it, but there is also Option E, which is the one I am choosing.
E) Just play the game and have fun and don't let a bunch of loser cheaters ruin it for you
-
Teak is right - if you were a mass flipper and invester, that was a very niche thing...and not really the meat of this game. Some might even look at that as cheating if you had a whole algorithm set up to do it (I dont really care if you did).
The gameplay cheating is way different - try your best to stop it, but dont take away content from honest people.
-
@go4stros25_PSN You forgot "just stop playing the game", which, from the number of people who have Randy versus the number who have Acuna, a lot of people have taken that option.
-
So if I followed real ball and bought cards for them to go up in value with the RU, it was possibly cheating? lol. I also didn’t play enough? Some of us are immersed in gameplay and IRL ball. That doesn’t make us cheaters, etc. It means we are different than your experience. Don’t equate that with losers who use a computer setup to win games without ever moving a pci.

@LHUBison58_XBL im sorry, what is ru?
-
@go4stros25_PSN roster update.
-
Roster update. And investing is not a niche community. I would argue this board is niche.
-
@LHUBison58_XBL its not niche, a ton of people do it. There are just some people on here that were never good at it and they like the fact that its been ruined.
And no investing isnt cheating, using a cpu program to constantly flip cards is cheating.
-
It’s not ruined. It’s different. I’m in line to make around 400k at the update. You just had to change what you do. No biggie.
-
Roster update. And investing is not a niche community. I would argue this board is niche.
Do you think more than say 20% of the player base is investing beyond maybe just not selling their Cam Schitters?
-
I’m part of a much larger community than the community here. Not niche. Tell yourself it is, doesn’t matter to me or the thousands of like minded people like me.
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS and CS is a B level investment. There are multiple better options.
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS yes I think its around 20% and I think that 20% are the players who play the game the most.
-
@Pergo_MLBTS Yep. None of that matters to me at all. If SDS wants to allow exploits and cheats, that's up to them. They won't even fix the squad freeze issue that entered the game last year so I highly doubt they are ever going to do anything about Bots and other Cheating. (Spoilers: They are lazy and sloppy)
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS yes I think its around 20% and I think that 20% are the players who play the game the most.
Agreed. So, niche.
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS so bitter. Yep, so bitter. Lol. Just accept some of us consume the game differently than you. It’s okay. I don’t judge people who spend their money on the stubs in this game. I’d rather earn my stubs. No big deal. You should try doing the same. Makes you feel better.

@mietha_PSN It is a lot harder to get to the boss pack in the 2nd inning than it was the 1st. I assume they will dump a double xp week on us starting today?
