XP Cap
-
So...my only potential problem here is I often get over 5K XP from just playing one single Play vs. CPU game against the Rockies at Coors on Rookie. That should add up to 35K in only 3-4 hours of gameplay. Which is an entirely reasonable amount. Especially on weekends.
Oh well. It will force me to challenge myself at All Star and higher, which I really should be doing anyway in order to improve.

When I first saw this change I was upset then watched a youtuber (blayde) and his argument kind of swayed me into a new point of view. I do not agree with the change but I do understand WHY they are doing it. Before I go any further I am going to be transparent and say -- I used ONE of the glitches not a lot but some to make the grind lessen plus to be honest the using this method is boring as HECK. One more thing is I am not EVEN an online player so the only reason I even do it is to TOTALLY complete the line for all the packs SO hopefully it helps me complete the team collection ( not done yet but that is a rant in itself )
Now that I have been honest with you all I will say this ....
This whole thing is a slippery slope in terms of the future and next years version of the game cause maybe SDS instead of having to go to this extreme maybe you should ask the players WHY they feel they need to go to the extreme of using said glitches. Now the obvious reason is for the hardcore DD player to have the new boss on the team and the other is all the rewards but considering all the packs via Conquest etc the game puts in I am not sure that is that big of a factor.
If I was to TRY and combat this issue I would do the following ....
- Limit the amount of EXP through Exhibition mode to like 5 to 15k ( this is where at least one of the methods take place and I think One other too )
- Only keep the CAP on through the 1st 10 Days of the program then after that let the players go crazy IF they want BUT let the player decide how they want to play the game that we all spent between 60 and 100 ( depending on the version ) we bought.
- Also maybe if you increased the EXP gained by like 10 to 15% through Conquest , Online etc then MAYBE players who are more limited in the time they can play and do not fall into hardcore Online DD players would not feel they have to resort to using a glitch to complete the program not talking bout myself but I am sure there are players who LIVE busy lives and maybe can only play on the weekends etc.
I hope someone at SDS will read this and think about the points I brought up and to other players I know what I wrote was LONG but I think brings up good points and I hope it helps leads to better changes not rash one's like this ONE I believe is.
So you’re the reason for this!!?…hey guy’s I found the guy that caused us to kinda get pissed off, get ‘em!!!

I haven't needed xp for weeks now you cap me the day 6th inning comes out. Completely ridiculous. No stubs and no xp. I think SDS needs a lawsuit for their monopoly to force people to buy stubs.

I can do half of the USA map in a single night. I think I would hit the XP cap pretty easily doing this. If this is the case, they're messing up pretty badly. However, I do not exploit and I finished the 5th inning with 18 days to go. I did all the inning collections and the daily missions, plus tons of conquest in the USA map. I didn't even do the SD (I never do them). This is crazy.

They don't want people finishing with 18 days to go. Thats the point

Okay… am I missing something here?!?!
Due to people glitching the game, SDS has decided to place an XP cap on all players rather than fix the glitch?
I am hoping when they say “through gameplay”, the XP cap doesn’t include collections. But even still, I grind over 35k XP a day when new innings come out. Now I will be playing much less.
How does SDS not see that making a decision like this only causes it’s player base to play the game less or even quit playing the game altogether. Whoever made this ludicrous decision needs to be fired immediately.
Fix the glitches!!
This is a joke right? Right?? What is the cap at??
35k…I just want to know how the caps going to work with 2xp periods.
They say they’re gonna increase it for double XP events. What I’m worried about is that as a student I can’t play every day—how am I going to complete the program if I can’t play every day to get XP?
I would grind the 2xp periods heavily and complete collections, apparently player programs and collections xp wont be affected. I am not a fan of this cap, but am willing to see how it plays out.
I think instead they should do something about people exploiting to get players to the fifth parallel first. They should make it so that the games they quit in order to grind stats like that don’t count towards PXP progress
I don’t think it does, i was doing hit and quit for the miggy program and I don’t recall either rookie miggy or as miggy getting parralel xp but I could be wrong.
Some Youtuber/Tiktoker is bragging about doing hit and quit PXP grinds. Pisses me off because he can’t be bothered to play the game and earn PXP normally like the rest of us humble folk

Yeah, but I'm a normal player, no exploits. I'm offline only too, so it doesn't really matter when I finish. I think it's more geared to the douches that are finishing on day 1.

The other question I have. If you are consistently hitting over 35k a day then wouldn't you have the program done in about a week. Which means you have about 3 weeks of gameplay earning no XP towards anything. So do you not play for the 3 weeks after you finish the program?
Don't confuse them. They are outraged.

I showed you the math in another thread (and made a post showing the math) that you chose to ignore. It takes only 4-6 hours of play to hit the cap. On weekdays, sure very few will hit the cap. But many people like to or can only play on weekends and those caps will be easily hit on Saturday/Sunday.
Your math was faulty, as I showed and you ignored.
From your obsession on this topic, I can only deduce that you are one of the exploiters who used the glitches in order to complete the program in a day or so and now your bluff got called.
Sorry they took away your advantage.
Sorry, all you showed was that your reading comprehension was faulty.
Let me be clear, pre-double xp you can earn 1700xp a RTTS game as a pitcher or 1500+Xp a game in conquest. THOSE ARE WITHOUT DOUBLE XP. That equates to 4 hours to hit the cap in RTTS or 6 in DD.
I have never exploited xp, but I do like to play a lot on weekends when the wife and kid are at dance practice. I think you just need a 3rd grade math refresher.
650,000 inning cap / 35,000 daily limit = inning completed in 18.57 days. Let's call it 19.
Without any collections, conquest/showdown completions, double XP time frames, or any other bonuses, you can max out in 19 days. That means the remainder of the month is wasted XP anyway. Do you really care that much if the XP is wasted at the end of the month or the end of a long day when you have already earned 35K?
Once again, it’s not linear. It’s not that you hit the cap every day it’s that for many players we get a day or 2 a week we can play a lot and other days very little. It’s a very amateurish fix to an exploit that could have been more easily addressed.
What's this "WE" [censored]? You just said you play 4-6 hours and knocked it like it was nothing. If 4-6 Hours is nothing to hit the cap...Your "Linear" argument is as thin as the Charmin you wipe your [censored] with.

I replay the USA map and sell the prospects after I finish the program. I made like 130k stubs last night from finishing it up.

I couldn’t finish it if I played 4-6 hours straight. You cheating much?

I believe you have to have 8 abs, or win the game to get pxp.

Then how is this tiktoker grinding PXP to get parallels before anyone else? He’s gotta be cheating

All the XP Cap does; is punish players that can't play every single day, because they have other responsibilities like Family and work.
If you can only grind on your days off and are now limited to 35,000 70,000 XP a week depending on your personal/professional life, this game just became absolutely worthless.
The other side is, Stub sales will go up, because those that have the means, will buy the stubs needed, to get the players, they would have spent time grinding for, will no longer be the case just pay for it.
XP cap is about money, not cheaters.

70,000 x 4 is 280,000. Add in 2 conquest maps and 1 player program and you are already over the amount needed for the boss pack. Whats the problem here? That you can't pull Max Muncy at 650k?
