Is SDS Tone Deaf????
-
Na this showdown was awesome, gives props to sds when due
I love this- if you’re good enough to earn him free you can. And if you’re not good enough to earn free you can buy
Just like DQ rewards. And it gives players that are good a chance to make some extra stubs if they want to repeat just like DQ!
As a person that likes to play higher difficulty modes like DQ to earn stubs as fast as possible- I wish SDS would drop new content just like this showdown much more frequently

@GodShammGod2_XBL 100 percent agree. Its not that hard to come up with cool new ideas like this showdown - they just do it very rarely

I am in general agreement that the program is a good idea, however it would be nice if they swung this the other way and allowed the casual grinders chances to sell cards too.
Its fine for skilled (or willing to cheese) players having more stub per hour potential, but mini seasons havent evolved enough for the casual crowd. We are still only giving out deluxe packs, not even choice, and all mini season/conquest cards are no sell
Again, letting people playing on HoF/Legend get faster stubs is fine, but they need to bring up the other side a bit as well. Theres too much RNG with show/non choice deluxe packs especially now that even most 90 live series dont sell for much.

@DemIsE4_XBL i know what you're thinking and i dont see it happening. When has sds ever done anything to prove to us that they are willing to punish anyone for anything other than buying stubs from a third party.
Can't a person have hope for a little bit? You're likely right but I like to do some wishful thinking from time to time. Especially with WC coming up. Going to be hard enough for me to get wins in the 7-800 range wherever I end up.

@rageincage007_XBL Cmon, the average player, and any player under 40, should easily be able to do this. I am 50 and can complete this every time I try. And i dont even make WS in ranked anymore. If someone cant complete this easy Showdown, then just practice a little bit, you will get there in no time.
You do realize that probably less than 5% of players can make world series. I am 57 this year and 1-2 in trying this and I played D1 and minors. This is a lot harder than you think for most people. 15 runs on HOF against an outlier pitcher is no joke for the huge majority of players.
-
@DemIsE4_XBL agreed. especially cause most people dont play on good monitors and cant handle velocity. Its good to encourage more people to play above all star, though

@On_a_Power_Trip_PSN it's like day 2. Wait a week.

It is fine once in a while like doing a HOF event but too much and you alienate a huge part of the fan base.

@Rubbaneck34_XBL I’m a 51 year old man with slow reflexes who has to wear cheater reading glasses to play and I did it in my second attempt. Was it hard? Yes! Is it doable….for sure!
-
@GodShammGod2_XBL I totally agree!! This was challenging, but not impossible like some of those ridiculous extreme moments. This showdown was one of the few good things SDS has done this year!!!

Agreed. They showed by doing this that they are open to allowing rewards from certain modes to be sellable that previously haven't been. There are plenty of people that don't like conquest or mini seasons but those are my favorite modes so I would be happy to grind those repeatedly and sell the extras to those who would rather spend their time playing their preferred modes just as I was happy to pay 22k for DeGrom rather than flail away in a mode that I don't particularly care for.
-
I’m guessing they’ll lower the difficulty eventually, especially if the card is more than 75k profit, they’ll move it back to veteran in about a month.
-
@jcassaro44_PSN nah, its already below 20k - which means its not really an exciting grind anymore
