If you do MTO don’t lower difficulty!

Reached post season dynamic to legend / legend. Didn’t want to risk losing affinity points for a series loss. Lowering your difficulty locks you at beginner. So mad, I wanted to go down 1 to HOF but didn’t read the fine print I guess. What a boring post season. So got 16/16/4/8/12 total points for 10 hours of gameplay. Bologna! Showdown is quicker points and more fun IMO

It's been a known bug (I assume that it is a bug) since day one.
-
Yeah, that is the only drawback, but if you are going to lose, then dropping is the only guarantee to get points. The penalty is that its beginner points.
-
Pretty sure this is only for Dynamic. I started on Hall of Fame and lowered to All-Star in the ALCS and World Series and got the All-Star level rewards. for both.
-
I have the same dilemma. I normally play on all star (or if needed HOF), and now dynamic difficulty has taken me up to hall of fame / legend. Since I'm definitely winning the division i'm going to keep it on dynamic untill the end of the season, but if the postseason challengers are tough I will lower the difficulty to beginner to guarantee me the team affinity points.

You still got 56 pts though, right? Isn't that enough to get you the FOTF card?

@Psycho__Kinetic yeah I got Soto with it. But for 10 hrs of gameplay it wasn’t worth the time. 5.6 point per hr. Round it to 6 point an hr cause of my F up.
Showdown takes about mb 90 min average if you don’t skip and nets me 20 points. 13.3 points per hr. Not factoring the failure rate time, still higher then 6pt / per hour. Think I’m 11 for 17 win/attempts

I’m impressed that you’re quantifying it all. Seeing the game from a different angle, never considered that. I’m just having fun playing! (But I don’t play the DD modes)
