This has to be the mother of paywalls!

Just got Beltran and I’m no money spent. These big collections shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone at this point. Yes, it’s a lot to collect, but you should be collecting these cards through out the year. Try to obtain cards after flash sales and whatnot when market prices are down. If you wait until the day the collection reward releases and cards like Leiter are up to 500k that’s kind of on you.
100 percent. You have to build your collection when cards are down during flash sales, don’t open packs and do not overpay for the new shiny cards.

@DaddyDingerz_PSN I may go for the card when prices go down just won’t have him day one. It’s not end of world.
-
@DoIHearBossMusic_PSN it’s did used to be any card was obtainable thru a grind minus live series. I miss those days
This is false. There have always been exclusive multiplayer cards.
-
@SaveFarris_PSN fair maybe I just used to pay less attention to more lucrative cards. I only rly started going rly hard at getting the best cards last cpl years even tho I was always competitive. I’ve been a ws player since 20.
-
@SaveFarris_PSN is there not exclusive offline cards? The only cards can still be bought no?

I hear this. I can afford it now but it would be stupid when it's going to become so much cheaper literally next weekend. Weekend classic will make finishing the all star program dirt cheap, next spotlight/topps now will make that way cheaper, and I just can't overpay for the finest Oday Leiter or the postseason cards. I sold my Mookie because I'll be patient. I'm just hoping I stay strong for a week because that's such an awesome card lol

This is the way to do it right here. Stay strong! lol

Once again another conguest a mini season and a bunch of moments. Dd is turning into offline grinding boring garbage.
What did online players get absolutely nothing but an event that takes 5 games to complete. Trash.

I know I've given you a hard time in some responses but this one's fair. There's no reason they couldn't include online missions for good points too. At least the mini seasons is optional and the majority of the missions can be completed doing the conquest which gives good packs. The moments you don't have to do all of them either if you do all of the missions. I typically hate and avoid moments like the plague lol
-
@Thongypu_PSN thank you I appreciate the understanding. This year is sucking for online players. Prior years I would go into battle royale and try to complete that program. Event programs were alot longer, events were never completed in 10 games or less prior. Etc. Im literally forced to play ranked or go offline at this point. Sucks. Whoever is in charge now, these guys are idiots man.

Al Leiter is almost 500k. Imm seriously considering selling him and waiting for a flash sale
Probably not a bad idea. Even if you have to buy him back at like 250-300k in a couple weeks thats still a nice profit. Plus there has to be more signature cards coming.
I bought him originally for 181k. I can’t pass up on this much profit. I only need one voucher, so I’ll sell him and do the ASG collection when it becomes cheaper.
Edit: Just woke up and saw him at 840k… Holyyyyyy

I quit Madden when Ray Lewis was on the cover and have never purchased again and don't miss it at all even though I love football. MLB The Show is fast trending here. I don't mind a grind as I have most of the collections done as far as Miggy, Tulo and Martinez. This is in spite of never pulling Judge, Ohtani, chase card (not one) and only one rare card (base Roch) the whole year. This level of unrewarding is just getting too much. I obviously don't mind working but getting some bones would be nice. Way too many collections on this one with cards well over 100k. Mookie's card - absolutely ridiculous. Leiter's card - absolutely ridiculous. You get the picture.
Another thing really pissing me off this year is people like YFK who can glitch to get to WBC packs, get stubs and promote a 3rd party stub vendor that has 1 million stubs for $70. People cheating this game everywhere with zero repercussions. Yet people playing this game legit just get bent over. I find it hard to believe these 3rd party stub sites are not the reason for these absolutely ridiculous card prices. Bots have really messed this market up bad and SDS is doing nothing. Do the WBC glitch? Fine by SDS. Buy 3rd party stubs? Fine. Use any of the 3rd party cheat devices? Fine.
Be really interesting to see how next year goes. This seems to be a year of empty promises and lack of action by SDS to people that really deserve to be banned cheating the game.

lol OP is really clueless. Plenty of other things to complain about. This is a non issue. play the game, i haven't spent a dime, and need Skenes, thats it.

I sold Simmons yesterday at 270k and he is 370k now. Not as bad as Leiter, but still hurts.
-
I’m assuming people willing to pay these prices did the mini seasons glitch.

Don't get it why people think it's P2W. There's no pay walls in the game, and you can get stubs and the best cards just by playing.
Listen, there are many reasons to hate SDS. No need to make some reasons up.
-
There's no pay walls in the game,
There is if you're not a top 5% player. You have no choice but to spend $ to get the stubs to buy them. But they're 100% optional, nobody's forcing anyone to buy them.
the best cards just by playing.
*Some of. There are plenty that are locked behind packs, and those are usually the ones required for collection completion.
It's not P2W I agree...but definitely Pay to "Earn"

Yes, I sold Leiter. I’d rather wait four days for Chapman and Albies

Thanks for correcting me. What i will say is that people think SDS is supposedly "forcing" microtransactions onto us. People really need a reality check.

That's insane!!
And is evidence that SDS is alienating average fans who don't flip.
