Extreme Moments Rewards
-
These have to be sellable; correct? Almost every card in the game has been obtainable by either the market, packs, or by playing the game in a non-extreme mode.
For them to make these unsellable to people that don't have the patience or skill to play an extreme difficulty will more than likely turn people off this game. Especially for casual players and especially if the rewards are sought after cards.
Plus I think that if they lock the rewards behind actually having to play this mode, and with the recent Griffey fiasco, they will definitely alienate some of the player base.
And don't forget that the game is new for Switch players. So if they want them to keep buying the game each year; they're not going to alienate them.
Remember, up until last year (when they game went multiplatform) they never had BR/Event Rewind packs.
-
They won’t be sellable. SDS has made it very clear they don’t want wait lists and sellable extreme cards would have never ending unfilled wait lists.
-
They have had event and Ranked Rewind packs for several years, they just weren't until the very end before. They won't be sellable. It defeats the entire purpose of them. Switch players are irrelevant because I would venture a guess that at least half of the switch playerbase is just people that bought it on there to play conquest in bed. I've encountered like 4 switch players online all year
-
Extreme won’t be sellable for the same reason collection and other program rewards aren’t sellable: they want some accomplishments to retain their exclusivity.
-
rewards from extreme have never been sellable
-
I'm an unskilled player and fear Extreme. But I agree these should not be sellable. I am hoping there is an extreme grind component (The P5 aspect makes me hopeful) but I imagine this will only be part of the program. I think it's a great mode to challenge the skilled players and help the unskilled players improve. And if I can't finish it because my skill level isn't there, well I guess I better git good.
No matter what, I think this program will be a lot of fun.
-
I think they understand better than us what drives away and brings in players. Now what brings in new players might be a dog [censored] but at the end of the day they care about the money because that's what keeps them going. Not saying it's good or right but they know how to bring in and keep players.

Agreed with most here, shouldn’t be sellable. I only got 2 out of 3 from the last year they did this…i could never finish the moments section (did the ones I could, but not 100%). 3 HR in same game with yellich…..gtfah!!!!
Did well enough to get the yellich and pearson, but no Lou and that was acceptable as that was my best effort.
In preparation for this event I am taking off Monday hoping I can start toiling away.

Where did they announce the rewards?

They've only announced the 1st reward on Twitter which is a Retro Finest Kerry Wood 99. I think it's a definite W especially if it's like the last few Retro Finest pitchers like Greinke, D Train, Leiter, Percival etc. I think the assumption is this will be an early reward that you need to grind to P5 but that has not been confirmed. This won't bother me as I mostly play offline but I'm sure it'll get old playing against Kerry Wood in every online game. But again, that's pure speculation.
It says "? Many bosses" on the schedule but in the stream they said "? Many bases" Like someone freaking out over a 12 base moment or something like that. I'm not sure which is accurate. But my uneducated guess is 3 bosses.
Also, check their Twitter as that is usually the first place they announce things unless there is a stream.

I need to see who all is offered and what needs to be accomplished to unlock the players before I even decide I want to try this mode.
I don't particularly like Moments; but I'll do them if it's a player I want in my lineup.
A Retro Finest Kerry Wood doesn't excite me.
-
I would do extreme if there were no rewards. Just some packs and XP or something.

Kerry Wood’s card has always been fun to use. I can’t wait for this Retro Finest.

I think 4. One for each "section" of extremes worth of program points. Also them starting the reveals today lines up pretty well with the final reveal being Friday

That sounds like a solid program. In the past were there henchmen or mid type prizes or will all 4 be solid 99s.
I know this program is gonna kick my a$$. But since it's seperate and has no time limit, I'm stoked about it. That's kinda how I've always treated online. It's always there if I want the challenge and to try and improve my skill. But if I just want to obliterate the CPU, I can go back to normal conquest.

Should all be 99s unless they want to be extra mean with the P5 mission lol
