3700 XP for a 4-2 RS win with 14 strikeouts. Whole 9 innings
-
SDS made playing the game the worst way to earn XP. What should I expect from a company who makes the best players fake while hall of famers collect dust. What did y'all do to baseball?
-
It’s pretty whack. Especially not even announcing the change at all. I don’t think I’ll max out this inning program but it’s not that big of a deal for me. I think a lot of people will be upset next inning though.
-
Ohhhhh excite
-
They have been giving us so many extras to xp in the innings I don’t find it to be a problem. If you do all the stuff in the innings you will easily have 350k for the boss. I don’t see a problem.
-
This is what happens when there are 100 plus videos on YouTube showing how to do xp glitches.
This is what happen when people muinplute the system
This is also what happens when people cry that the rewards aren't worth it the will slow down the progress and up tge rewards so you can't get them.
To me this is what we as a community deserves because instead of holding stream accountable for manipulating the game and the telling tens of thousands of gamers to do the same
I am happy they did it now people will actually have to play this game and actually put in all the time and effort they love to speak about.
-
How much do y'all play? I know I play a decent amount but still not anywhere near as much as some people and I've been sitting at 650k xp for about 2 weeks now (Think I had 20ish days left in the program).
Are you doing daily missions and trying to get XP from all the maps, programs, collections and missions from the inning? They give away so much xp from doing fairly easy stuff and playing these should be easy completions so far.
-
I think more people would be ok with it if they told us. Just doing it and not saying anything is a shady move at best. Between the XP and the timing window changes they made, its pretty easy to see that they make changes all the time and pretend like they didn't. The least they could do is be transparent and honest. The community would take it A LOT better IMO.

I would argue it wouldn't matter.
If they came out and said they have reduce xp gains from.game play people would just throw a fit that it's being scaled back but servers and freeze offs are an issue.
I don't blame them for being hush can't win if you try so why even bother
-
little over a week to go.. 100k xp away and still need to finish one of the player programs that will give 35k of it.. no xp glitches, didn't use the RTTS simulating this time, just playing conquests / ranked seasons / moments can get you there... just not in 1 day like those that have the benefit of the xp glitch

There is a huge part of me that agrees with you. I personally like and appreciate when devs/community managers are more active, good or bad. I've played games like Destiny, Ark Survival Evolved, and a few others where they interact so much more with the community. They ignore the trolls and interact with the community during good times or bad lol. The XP and timing windows don't really affect me but it doea a lot of people. The least they could have done was mention it and ignore the hate.

I’m 150k away and I play about 2-3 hours a day on average I’d say. I did all of the online missions, quite a few dailies (but those are tiny bits of XP compared to stars last year), all of the conquest maps.
I haven’t done a lot of the player programs. I think I did Ozzie, that’s it. I hate moments. So I haven’t done the Showdown either. It’s on me. I’m not complaining but it does suck compared to me just playing the modes I wanted to before and completing it without issue. I’ll see where I’m at after this weekend and if I’m still short I’ll do the Showdown.

I don't do moments, missions, etc. That stuff is for the birds. I refuse to beat my head against a wall for XP. I play the game online. How it should be.

Why are the SDS content creators the guys who are doing glitch videos? Riddle me that

They're really not though (referring to your comparison of xp dailies to stars). 4 missions per day that are 1-2k xp each. Lets call it 5000 xp per day over 30 days is 40% of what you need to get the boss card and about 25% to max the inning program. Thats not counting any other missions or earned xp along the way. Some of the online ones almost require BR or events to really do (no one is taking bronze IFs into RS trying to get rbis....)
I'd recommend trying to do the dailies as often as possible.
Moments can be annoying but you can generally get away with doing a few of them if you're ok with doing the other missions.
For what its worth I'd say I probably average about 3 hours a night playing various modes (conquest maps, BR, Ranked, events to a lesser extent, etc).

So the community shares the broken parts of the game, the developers decide to nerf XP for everything instead of fixing the issues in RTTS, and you blame us?
While I don't expect to share the forums with Nietzsche, this is some pretty terrible logic.

Oh yeah I’m definitely not doing all of the dailies. I do the exchanges and innings ones which is about 2k a day. The online ones if I can but definitely not on a daily basis.
And no on the moments. Y’all can keep your 85-89 LS haha. I’m not going to play modes I don’t want to play. Period. It’s a game and should be enjoyable. Moments are not enjoyable for me. What I get, I get. It’s just unfortunate because it really was “play how you want to play” before and now it’s not.
-
2 player programs- 70k XP
Showdown-50k XP
2 conquests- 50k XP
Gary Carter/Ozzie Smith-30k XP
Allstar collection 15k
28 days of exchange and innings daily missions- 56k XP
That's 270k and I'm not even counting online mission and pretty sure I'm missing a collection in there somewhere. Remember, the boss pack at 350k is you end goal, not the live series pack at 650k -

I'd argue its still "play how you want to play" since just playing adds xp to the inning program at a much higher rate than it did previously (Where you'd get like a random star every so often...I'm sure there was a calculation somewhere). If you didnt do missions, moments whatever before you weren't going to progress much on inning programs anyway.
I went from never completing an inning program previously to being 3/3 now without changing how I approach the game. The only real difference is I play BR a bit more thanks to the new program that makes it rewarding for actually playing the mode.

They didn't nerf the xp.....they reset it to the norm. The boosted the XP to double early when their servers were garbage and never put it back. Double xp was originally a weekend only thing and we've been benefitting from it for almost 3 months now.

I was playing how I wanted to before and maxed out the previous inning. Now I probably won’t. So just because it’s how YOU want to play, doesn’t mean that’s how everyone plays.
It’s not like I haven’t done anything but just playing. I’ve literally just not done moments. Which has never been an issue for me this year or last.
Again, I don’t care if I max it out. I’ll always get the bosses easily which is the main goal. It just sucks they basically nerfed it to force feed us more moments.

Incorrect. They removed it over a month ago, they've now nerfed it due to their inability to fix the XP glitch in RTTS. If this was double XP being removed, they would announce it (as they have already said on twitter), and the math would be halved, not quartered.
