Exactly. Fighting over minor leaguer stats because they are not authentic, but being ok with players from the 1920s playing on the same team as players from the 2020s.
Not the same at all.
At least the guys from the 1920’s earned their ratings by being some of the best players of their era.
Most of these Future Star cards aren’t even top 50 prospects, yet they’re getting 90-95 overall cards. I’d have no issues with them if they maxed out at 90-91 for the very top prospects, like the actual prospect cards we already had. These Future Star cards didn’t take any minor league stats or prospect rankings into account, they just got random attributes and overalls based on whatever SDS thought looked good.
Nick Madrigal should never be “predicted” to be a 95. Kevin Smith will never be close to a 90. Check back in 4-5 years and I guarantee you almost none of these Future Stars will be even close to the overall that SDS has given them.

I had a feeling something like this was going to happen around the time last year that they released an Adam Jones card in Headliner Packs that was better than Trout. From that point through the end of the game cycle there were some cards released that just didn’t make sense attribute wise because they had to push packs and get people to keep grinding.
I’m aware it’s a video game and it’s never going to be 100% realistic, but they could at least try to stick to cards that are based on stats and projections. It seems like all that goes out the window so they can put out a new shiny object for people to chase.
I don’t understand why they can’t come up with a general outline of all of the cards they will release throughout the year (besides new POTM, Topps Now, and Finest) and just release them in an order that ramps up in talent and makes sense. That way you don’t need to release prospect cards with ridiculous ratings so they can compete online against a 99 Kluber that’s getting thrown out there every other game. That would also eliminate the problem of Live Series cards being obsolete within a week of release.
I know there were complaints about cards coming in too late to 18, but there has to be a balance we can find.
There are people that feel pretty strongly opposed to my view because I’ve seen them talk about it on the forum, but that’s my opinion...

Jeez...you're so triggered. DD is a fantasy mode no one drew the line at 1918 Legends. They're not doing a bad job of creatively releasing content during a year in which there's no baseball. Maybe they figured they'd look into the future during a lost year. You honestly need to chill the hell out.
SDS simp detected.
It looks like you’re lost, Reddit is two doors to the left.
I'll call trash when I see it. There's many issues with this year's game and trust me this is the last thing worth fighting. Sorry to burst your misery session,
Clown emoji? Go back to Instagram my guy. Gameplay and content are two separate things. Just because you think gameplay is bad, doesn’t mean content isn’t equally as bad, just in a different way.
Ok wallow in your pity and enjoy the b1tch fest with your ilk on this forum. I won't interrupt your cry session again,
Keep crying about gameplay, I’ll keep crying about bad content. Deal?

They should have a DD mode and a MiLB mode. Keep these cards separate.
Let people spend time and money between those two modes.
This is INSULTING to players all the way from Trout down to Willians Astudillo.
I like this idea, maybe move it to the forums. We can have forums for normal people that enjoy playing and talking about the game, and a “minor league” forum for all you people that incessantly complain about every. single. thing.

The majority of these players from "1918" earned the right to have high rated diamonds through their real life production and subsequent HOF inductions.
The majority of these future stars haven't played a single game in MLB, so giving them high rated diamond cards makes as much sense as giving Macho Man one because he played in the minors.

It's honestly ridiculous how whiny this forum is, crying about the same topic all day isn't gonna change a thing. These FS cards will be great for now, but will be phased out as more cards are released. It's still APRIL incase anyone forgot, there is a ton of time for "real" cards to get upgrades. At least we are getting content.

Randy Savage 95 ovr 3rd Inning Boss?
Just as much credibility as any of these other future stars.

Randy Poffo was a stud.
If it makes you feel better all of these releases will be buried by the 11 months left of content. It will be okay DD police.

It’s the fact that these players got these cards at all. And the fact that SDS is trying to push these as “realistic predictions” makes it even more asinine.
Prospect diamonds should’ve stopped at 91 ovr Wander Franco. Nobody should’ve gotten anything higher.

Was there this outrage when Future Star cards were made a couple years ago? Robles, Reyes and whoever else.
I'm not a big fan of "projection" cards but it is what it is. Also not real big on the monthly cards either.
-
To the people who seem to think it is futile making opinions known on this forum.
Remember when you only had one lineup which you would have to change constantly when grinding? Forum feedback led to us getting four slots in 19.
Remember when you used to have to quit out of games in BR and Events if you wanted to restart a run? Forum feedback fixed that in 19.
Unless someone is being overtly toxic and rude (like “Screw SDS” posts), there is no reason why this topic can’t be brought up and discussed.

I’ve never been a fan of them either, but at least the high diamond Future star cards were only given to top prospects in years past.
18 had a program with a future star from each team, but 24 were golds and only 6 were diamonds.

They also didn't play against people of color or 102mph Sinkers...

Did the fantasy foosball hurt your feelings?
When they started giving people attributes over 99, we entered level 50 of dreamy land.
Strap yourselves in and enjoy the nonsense, because things are going to get even more fun when the Switch players arrive next year.
We are all gonna be fielding starting lineups of Peach, Toad, Samus, Link, Pikachu, King K. Rule, Isabelle, Kirby and Simon Belmont.
