There really does not seem like much content in October for fans of teams not in the playoffs.
-
the retro program features mostly teams that are in the playoffs this year and will receive more cards... another high IQ choice by SDS
-
At least there is content this inning. Last inning the only notable content drop was moonshot, which was the the third week of the inning.
Again this all links back to the removal of TA. There is a big void of earnable cards (not packs to get dupes to quick sell for stubs) that they didn't even bother to fill.
I think they could take a page from what 2K has been doing: each season has 40+ cards that can be earned through a variety of gameplay modes, offline or online (not locked to specific modes). This is where they dump a bunch of non meta cards, but they are there for people who want to earn and use them.

Of course, in this game whenever SDS releases a non-meta card the online crowd gives them a hard time.

Nothing until Friday the 9th
I really enjoyed the "Spooky" program last year, and I wish they would have made that an annual thing, like "Extreme" (although I think there was one year in the past 7 cycles without "Extreme", right @savefarris_psn ?)
I'm guessing we'll get Extreme in November. However, like a lot of others have posted here over the course of the year, there just hasn't been as much to do this year. I've already moved on to other games, and I typically only play MLBTS until December.
Yeah, I have been playing a lot of other games. I am getting ready to strap on the VR headset and do about an hour of flying over the Yellowstone National Park area and landing in Jackson Hole Wyoming in the shadow of the Tetons
And this is why I love MS Flight Sim (and totally off topic)

@Dolenz_PSN Please don't activate the supervolcano. Last time I did that I got eradicated in only 5 minutes.

I have Flight Simulator 2020. I haven’t upgraded to the newer one yet. I used to take off from NY/NJ and fly to the coast of LI over where my great grandmother’s house was. I typically play this, baseball & golf which they haven’t updated this year.

@Dolenz_PSN Wait there are 120 legends without a 99??? I didn't realize it was that many.
-
Yep, I have posted the list several times. I can do so again if you want to see the names. Names like Hank Aaron, Lou Brock, Andre Dawson, Jeff Bagwell, Willie Mays, Bob Gibson, and many more
-
The next deluxe pack should be retro finest. That’s what I would do, but who knows
-
Do we think theres one more collection this year - wondering if those ultra and premier and deluxe packs have any value at all...

Hope so.
I have an inordinate amount of deluxe and a few of the other two. -

That won't WHAT my lineup?

@Dolenz_PSN I played the "Spooky" program in '24 under a different name and it irked me that the only way to win was to do a showdown. Which I have lots of trouble with. I tried several times and was unsuccessful. I hope if they do one this year they don't do that again.

Oh, and still no Barry Bonds. He really needs to be in this game.

It’s crazy how much they have turned against the players for me no repeatable missions in programs is confusing let me play how I want to play don’t force me into something
