Question for those of you singing Madden's praises:
How much real $ would it cost to own every card in Madden? $10,000?
I own every single card in The Show 22, have over 2 million stubs and besides buying the deluxe game, I've spent a grand total of ZERO DOLLARS on The Show.
I wasn't singing Madden's praises. I haven't played Madden in years.
I've spent zero dollars not because i'm flaunting NMS or can't afford it. I just do not want to give a company more money than the cost of the game who do not deserve it.
Devils advocate - maybe if you/others (myself included) spent money on the game, then SDS would have an increase in budget to bring on new people, expand their pool for talent and ideas and design, and offer an updated experience.
One area that doesn’t need improvement: shout out to the art department!
I believe I spent around $500 on MLB 20 or something around that.
Game has seem to progress to worse each year since.

While I agree they have grown somewhat tiresome, extreme is awesome imo. It brings a lot more life to these modes
i agree mate - i really loved getting that Andrew Miller card a few years back from the extreme program - insanely hard
I just hope the conquest is more in line with 18s. 20s CQ extreme was quite easy
yeah i forget which one was harder but i enjoyed them each time bc of the difficulty involved

Again. Moments aren't mandatory. No need to tell me what you're into.

I like grilled cheese and lately have really enjoyed it with bacon...
Oh sorry I thought we were sharing stuff.
Ok on topic: OP I do get your frustration. This is only my second year and for the rollout of the last two programs, I've thought, this is the exact same thing. I still enjoy it and understand there are only so many things they can overhaul while still being able to release a constant stream of content.
So what are some ideas you have to innovate DD? I ask that seriously, not to be snarky. I'm always interested in what ideas everyone has to add to this game.

@Weshill627_PSN said in I have zero interest in Moments Extreme.:
In MLB 19 Moments were a great idea. Things happen during the lengthy history and each season, and i think it is important to recognize it, but having said that, we are 4 straight games into moments having a huge impact on offline grinding. I find them to be boring and mind-numbing.
I really do not care who the rewards are for the Moments extreme program, because i've had enough of doing moments.
All this i've said double it for conquest. If I never see another conquest board in my life i'd be happy.
SDS have become very lazy with content and I guess the praise they've received over the past few years has caused them not to care as much.
I can only hope they hire someone who can bring some life into the game, instead of releasing a boring mess.
I honestly could make an entire post about the lack of Supercharged cards in the game, and how with a little effort could have been the best part of 22.
I honestly agree with pretty much everything you said....moments, conquest, supercharged, etc.
I will say that I was not around in '20, so I will give this thing a chance and see how it goes. I am afraid the gameplay this year with the combination of "extreme" will be a major turn off though. Offline gameplay is a touch better, so maybe there is hope. For the most part though I have moved on from '22 and gone back to '21. Playing Events, BR, Extra Innings, etc. from '21 has been a much more enjoyable use of my time than anything I do in '22. I keep hanging around, but less and less time is going into '22. Hey, maybe "Extreme" will change that...

I love the idea of Supercharging live series cards, but why does a player have to have a career day or hit a milestone, or break a record to get supercharged? They should have a team dedicated to making sure they have supercharged players daily. I mean, we have 1200 active cards (not free agents) so only 4 get SC?
There should be hundreds of supercharges a day. That would make live series cards have more meaning this time a year other than collections or to make stubs on flips.
Honestly its not my job to come up with content, i do not get paid to do that.
Its those at SDS who should take extra effort to make sure the game is better than the last, not worse.

I've been playing mlb the show since 06 on my PSP lol.
This is the first time i've been done with the game by July in its history.
Maybe it will make it better but knowing SDS they will put in as little effort as possible.

Rolling my eyes on this thread tbh. I'm excited for extreme and I know a lot of people were disappointed last year when it didn't come
I'm happy to hear that you are excited for recycled, uninspired content, that is specifically designed to make the game not fun.
I'm happy to hear you think the game should only cater to you, and if it's not fun to you, it shouldn't be there.
I'm sure if it was catered to more people like me, the entire MLB twitch community wouldn't have switched to playing Madden lol
But yet here you are crying cause you’re not good enough to complete the extreme moments. Good go cry on the madden forums. Stop expecting to sign in and get free 99 cards for doing nothing. You offer nothing but bitterness and free wins when matched up with players who are average and above. I’m sure you’ll come back with how great you are. I also see you’re happy to tell everyone how long you’ve played. I don’t care.

If i have 20M Fans, i should be able to select as many places as i want to take over that would legit cut down the time by half.
Nope, instead SDS is like,
you have to sit there and watch the boring screen for an hour and a half lol
Surprisingly, SDS actually made a huge improvement to sim times this year. It used to take at least twice as long to sim each hex. but I completely agree -- it takes way too long and there's really nothing strategic about it. Just build up an army and sim, reload, repeat. If there was more to it than just click and wait, I think that would be kinda cool

I'm sorry, i have no idea what you are talking about. I dont have Madden so why would I go to their forums?
I never once said I wasn't good enough to complete them, it has nothing to do with level of difficulty, its moments in general.
I would love some free wins!! Please if you can get me some i'd take em!
Yep, i do miss MLB 06, the soundtrack and the gameplay was top notch!
I dont really care about being good or not. I just want my favorite game franchise to be good again.

What bacon?!? I like grilled cheese with BBQ sauce. This discussion is way better than the crybaby OP post about not getting his way. Plays madden but doesn’t play madden and I’m sure will tell us how great he is.

LOL! i said MLB the show being horrible is why the TWITCH community went to Madden. Never once did i say i played it.
if you are going to insult me at least be accurate!

You brought madden into this discussion by trying to tell everyone how people are playing madden now. No [censored] Sherlock? Bottom line, if I do t like a game I go play other things. I don’t come to the boards and complain about it and threaten to leave. The game has a couple issues but rewards and game modes isn’t one of them. Only in your eyes. The reason that the gaming community is going to play madden is 2 reasons, the first, it’s new and fresh but within a month those same guys will move on to NBA 2k, like they do every year. The second, is more of the mechanics of the game. Which most of us get, accept them for they are and keep playing or we go play something else. Now please tell me where it hurt you.

Extreme isnt designed for everyone, thus is why SDS said exactly that in their stream. It doesnt expire, it will just sit there for you to take a shot at every now and then if you are feeling brave, or sit there and grind it all out in a week or 2 if you want. It isnt part of a program or RS, or BR. It is just an added feature that a lot of us were pretty upset they took away for 1 year last year. Regular Moments, showdown and conquest offer absolutely NO challenge to most people who play this game yearly. Extreme is a great way to kill some of the monotony.

I still need to go back to that Goose Gossage mission from years back. It was the only one I couldn't do but I was playing on a big screen tv back then. I bet I could do it now.

Its not about the difficulty of the moments, its moments in general. They are a waste of time and boring 4 games in.

I agree….they did a great job of improving the sim times. I just still don’t understand how this mode relates to a baseball game. People always tell me “it’s like Risk” and “you get all these free packs”. That still just does t help me understand how it relates to a baseball game.
People also say there really isn’t anything new they can do with the game. How about a conquest type mode that doesn’t involve hexagons and numbers, but involves random attacks where I have to shutdown the heart of their order with my ace or I have to score a run in one inning against their ace.

That kinda sounds like Showdown, which everyone hates.
