Hard missions - not much value
-
@Pergo_MLBTS ranked. Dropped a bunt with Lou Brock practically the bag and he throws over to third super late to try and get Josh bell out
-
@Apolloz_99_MLBTS Ah thats brutal. I'm stuck in the lower levels of HOF on ranked right now, so very unlikely I am getting 10 hits in that mode anytime soon!
-
I never play ranked, only BR and Events. So Im back at 400 rating - you cant score more than 2 runs on many of those players, or they'll dashboard. I had to milk along the player to get the pxp in one game challenge, lol
-
The OP is rather close to describing a lottery operation! Your odds of losing are way higher than your odds of success. The word for that is gambling.
-
@rubicante23_PSN I have been spotting people 4-5 runs. That way if they are worse they will stay or even if they are better than me.
-
@PriorFir4383355_XBL even if you factor in the chance of getting a big pull...you have just as much chance of getting that big pull from doing other modes (from earning packs elsewhere).
And the 75k stub reward has zero gambling aspect...its just a set thing.
So, Im not sure what your point is - if people are entertained by doing the Countdown program, thats great - they should do it. Im pretty entertained by it.
My point is that it doesnt have greater value than any other thing you could do in the game.
-
@rubicante23_PSN its actually about 170k stubs because everyone should sell Acuna. He is mid. And there will be a better Acuna later. Plus there is more stubs in the program, plus the xp. It could be 200k stubs. Not trying to make anyone feel worse. This is a great program.
-
@SpawnOfDitka_XBL my point was only about the hard missions - you should definitely get acuna (not doing so will just cost you more). Im not sure if you should sell him - his value could shoot up, after completion of this program?
I like the hard missions and am halfway through finishing them - but I dont think their value is very high. (I dont even think it has good value if youre an elite player - let alone if youre average)
-
@SpawnOfDitka_XBL I've been debating whether to sell Acuna now or wait. It seems like his value should go up once the program ends and then when the next collection comes out. Although I am also usually terrible at predicting when cards will go up/down in value. The only sure thing for me seems to be when a new legends and flashback collection comes out. So easy to make stubs on those days.
-
@rubicante23_PSN yeah maybe hold him and sell him. Even more stubs lol
-
@SpawnOfDitka_XBL it COULD be a good idea to sell....depends on whether some rewind pack makes Acuna available again soon. If it doesnt, you'll rue the day you sold him - cut to collection time and hes going for 300k, lol
-
@rubicante23_PSN maybe the offline players should buy him and hold. It just depends on how many people completed the program to get him. If a lot of people completed the portion to get Acuna. His value may not go up.
-
Its pretty crazy he is still selling for 60k right now - like, this is a card that takes very little effort to get.
That should tell you how many people there are out there who just dont wanna (or cant) play Events or online, lol
-
The only thing that will keep the value of these cards down is if this is a regular thing and they have rewind packs
More likely scenario is these cards never get rereleased and end up at cap
-
@rubicante23_PSN i dont know this one is tough. He could just as easily go down as go up. Well see. Its a very mid Acuna card.
-
They'll do a rewind pack at some point - you cant hold forever. But you could hold for a while and get rich.
-
Yep
-
I was just content with buying Acuna, which I did. But I decided to try ranked this morning, won the first game in extras, and the second game the person was trying everything they could to get me to quit. They ended up quitting after I struck out the side, so I went 2/2 in ranked. So now I have 2 Acuna cards.
Not even going to try the hard missions, will hold my extra Ronnie and see if his price goes up. I'm just happy I got the medium missions done. If I can do it you all can too!
-
They love copying and pasting- so I would expect end of July to have the same kind of program with a rewind pack.
That seems like classic SDS content. Take something a little fun and new - then copy it eight times, instead of finding another thing thats new and fresh.
-
@rubicante23_PSN To be fair, they tried something new and fresh with this program and look how angry everyone is. The community has spoken loud and clear, they want the copy and paste, easy as possible programs over and over again.
