There needs to be a high price limit on cards.

Um, have you seen the last two games? SDS has done a great job of keeping prices down

I have. But the live series cards still have a couple (Trout, Acuna to name two) that shouldn't have high prices like that. I know they've done a little to get them down. I've said before I think a 99 card for both of those will help, but the overall solution isn't just to pump out 99 cards. A 400k card really punctures the fun of the game. I should add I really love this game. It (along with Train Sim World 2) are my two faves with MLB The Show in first place. But it hurts the live series to have some cards basically impossible to get. The live series is the basic structure of the game. The cards shouldn't all be priced the same, but there shouldn't be such a huge hurdle to get them all.

If Trout were 100k at this point, you would be complaining that everyone and their mother was throwing out 99 Randy Johnson every game.
It's fine the way it is. Anyone that really wants Trout can either flip their way to 400K, or earn/sell enough cards to get him. The best live series card in the game shouldn't be a participation trophy.

There already is a max on those,but Trout is a 95,the max is pretty high on those.besides it's not Trout you are paying 400 k+ for, it's also glaus, young,frank,randy, and the sig series voucher for Brett.that probably is the biggest reason as to the cost of trout,you need at least 1 of the 3 cards in the al collection, 2 of them locked behind trout to get the voucher,and prior to the recent event (buhner)you needed 2 so trout was a must.trout will come down once they release enough sig series to complete with out him.

I’m amused you think you can read my mind. You might try and read again what I wrote. I think it was pretty clear. I was talking strictly about getting the live series cards. And what’s wrong with everyone getting the randy 99?

A Bugatti Chiron should have a max price of 60k, it gives some people a distinct advantage over others.

@beatlesnews_psn said in There needs to be a high price limit on cards.:. But to make the live series so expensive where you have to pay over $100 out of your real wallet is ridiculous and ruining the point of what MLB The Show is.
Holy Jesus!! I finished Brett and the LS series this week and still have my $100.
You dump $100 for whatever reason, that's
you. If you can't do a little research then you should probably stick to coloring books. -

Everyone CAN get Randy (heh) for FREE. You chose to pay out, no one made you.
You should probably complain to the guy in the mirror.

@beatlesnews_psn said in There needs to be a high price limit on cards.:
I can already hear the groans, but in my view, the very high prices on a few cards (400k on Trout, for one) seriously hurts the game. And it gives some players a distinct advantage if they can and a disadvantage if they can't get all the live cards.
It's...
There are caps on prices for all cards!
And, I would argue that the cap should be higher than they are now!
Open up the market even more!
I think the raise in caps should have been expected since they've added so many more users by expanding to XBOX and Switch.
-
So you would rather have a 10,000 person lime at 100k than have trout be where he is at? Trout hits 400k almost every single year. It's a part of the game

He didn’t last year. I paid slightly over 100k for him.

Probably true but that doesn’t mean something can’t be done.

When did you start? Trout wasn't 100k until November

Randy 99 is free. How did I choose to pay out?

I started in July last year. And well before November, he'd dropped to 30k because of the Trump 99.

For the 8 millionth time…
You’re not buying Trout for 400K.
You’re buying…
Trout
Glaus
Young
Frank
Randy
(And maybe Brett). -

(And maybe Brett).400k is still a ridiculous price for one card. (And you get the other cards no matter who your last card is so hinging it on Trout, while likely in many cases, wouldn’t necessarily be correct. But your example is legit.)
