Shark map?
-
@savefarris_psn - is it pretty late in the game cycle to get the shark map? It feels like they just skipped it this year.

I also think right now would be a good time to do an extreme program instead of waiting too long where the cards don’t mean anything.

I think last year's Shark Map was August 29, and Extreme was in October.

Hi Guys, can you explain what the Shark Map and Extreme Program are/were for a new/old guy? Thanks

Shark map rewards were nerfed last year, I expect them to nerf it even more this year. This studio is very money hungry now. I wonder if management changed recently and there are new executives running the show.

Yes there are and it’s clear this year they have been directed to do and say whatever it takes to make as much money as possible by Sony to cover the mobile game and possible lockout next season which could drastically impact sales of 27.

Shark map is a conquest that has a ton of packs in it. Essentially all the previous packs and chase pack in one conquest map. Usually around shark week.
Extreme program is a program with extreme challenges like hit for the cycle on HOF or throw a perfect game on All-Star moments. It also would have extreme difficult conquest map where you have to play games on HOF or Legend difficulty. They also have ways to complete the program with repeatable PXP. The program usually has really good packs and some of the best cards in the game . For most it might take them months to finish it so I find releasing it in October is stupid.

The Ely award last year was money.

In my opinion the shark map was a really big deal the first time they had it. Why? Because at the time we were not used to getting special packs hidden in Conquest maps.
Since then hidden packs and rewards in conquest have gotten better. It may still be the most rewarding Conquest of the year but not by the wide margin it was that first year.
