Flash Sale again today... Just what we need...
-
Compare this to ANY EA sports game (and to 2k) and it's easy to argue that SDS respects its community and avoids predatory practices. DD is not perfect, and there will always be elements that seem crappy based on your preferences, but it is more respectful than any other game in terms of content and collecting.
Madden coming out this year reminded me of that. Big ups to SDS.

It just makes me wonder what happened to this company. It really sucks knowing this is prob my last year playing this game. I love it. I've been a diehard since '13. I want to play it, but I can't bring myself to do it much anymore. SDS has completely stopped caring about their product and community.. What happened? What's keeping you guys playing this year??
Why does this make you sad? You were playing the market and had cards you wanted to sell for a profit? I don’t get it….
No not at all. I have plenty of stubs and cards. Its more about wishing they would address the game as oppossed to just dropping stub and flash sales all the time.. I don't really mind all the sales, its not that at all. I'd like to play a playable game first is all my issue is.
Don’t try Madden or NBA haha.
-
They always drop a FS right after I've spent all my stubs collecting cards. I just spent 200k on cards just for the heck of it and I have like 4k left, lol. Typical, but that's the completionist in me.
-
I always laugh when I see the ridiculous “they need to fix gameplay before worrying about pack sales” argument. As if a) organizing a flash sale takes massive time and energy that would otherwise have been used on addressing gameplay, and b) the guy who changes the price of the packs is the same guy who fixes coding errors in the game.

mate the trick is to play less - i mean this with kindness my comment - this year due to a number of reasons i have hardly been gaming like i used to - i look forward to playing for the little time i have to game
I barely get to play anyways. I think i get frustrated bc this is the only game I play in my precious spare time. I'd like to play a playable version when I do.
sorry to hear you aren't enjoying this years iteration - for me personally i am loving it - just got the new Waino card the other day and can't wait to test in RS - have a great weekend

Something happened with this year's game. It's just "off". I played around 100 RS games last year. Only 9 this year because how bad it is.

i much prefer 21 to 20 but to each their own - the only thing i cannot stand is still a yearly issue with the R2's and baby play

That had to have been a blast to see lol

I think what OP is getting at is this... It's like your Kid wrecks your car, but says Mom and Dad, look I got a Scholarship to Harvard! SDS is showing us these pretty, sparkly things like flash sales and content drops to try and get us to forget all the glaring issues that haven't been fixed.

What keeps me playing?
My love for baseball and this game instead of focusing on what SDS sells and/or complaining about things outside of my control.I also love baseball and also love this game. I've stuck up for this company forever. To the point I would get roasted on here for it. Just go back and look at my posts from early this year.. Im done.. If you want to accept this joke of a game as good that's fine but it doesn't mean that people who are unhappy are just complaining. The fact that you accept it for what it has became says a lot. Curious how long you have played this game.
For me it's not about sticking up for SDS or accepting anything. It's about having fun with the best available Baseball game. Sure, it has flaws. It's NEVER been perfect. They add or fix one thing and another is "broken" as that stupid buzz word goes...
Every year has been different... Some improvements and some things to correct. Even if they ever made a "perfect" game, trust me, someone will come on here and cry and complain about it.
Lastly, to satisfy your curiosity, I've been on DD since March of 2012 (DD's inception) and around these forums equally as long so believe me, I've seen it all.

The flash sales help balance the market out - prices were inflated until they started dropping a little yesterday. This will help lower prices on cards you need for collections.
Flash Sale and a Stub Sale at the same time?

Oh you want to talk energy? The HRD was the most electrifying thing I've ever attended. Even the BP before things started was massive energy

So when is the flash sale? Or has it already passed
