Ridiculous. There needs to be a non-sell pack in the store for 1 million stubs...
And completely remove any incentive to play Ranked?
You never took an economics class, did you?
You have this upside down bud (and BTW I have a degree in business economics).
Time in game is meaningless this late in the cycle. If they offered him for 1 million stubs some casuals might come back into the game and drop some real life $$$ to buy stubs and try him out before the game dies. No point in doing that when he is impossible to buy.
SDS gets nothing out of forcing dudes who have 5 million + stubs to play 50+ sweaty hours of Ranked Seasons to earn the Big Unit.
Per my math, it's more like 20 hours. I just play 1 ranked game, or 9 innings per day ( whichever comes first). It's not a terrible grind if you spread it out.

SDS literally makes their money by increasing time in game. The more online engagement, the more Sony Corporate is going to support the studio. And the more resources will be budgeted for future installments. It's in SDS's interest in promoting online play. That's why BR and Ranked always see the best rewards.
SDS makes money from selling games and selling stubs. They will stimulate more games sales next year by leaving a good taste in everyone's mouth. Wait list is now over 1,800 people...you think the dudes in the back of the line will be pumped when the game ends and their stubs were worthless because they can't even buy and use the best card?
If the million stub orders were a problem for SDS and their player base then you would think they would’ve seen a decrease in players the last few years since it has been this way for a while. They have the numbers and we don’t, they continue to do it this way which to me tells me that the whole “leave a good taste” argument is nonsense. I also don’t know many casual players that are going to want to come back to the game, drop a bunch of real life money for a player they will use offline a couple times then stop playing again.

That's nearly a month of play to earn his card. Won't the game be over by the time you get him?

The game being over by then is extremely subjective. I'd argue the ones paying a million stubs and waiting in line most likely play this game until the next one comes out

SDS might want to rethink online gameplay on some levels if so many people would rather put in a bid for 1M than actually play the game...
Many people have so much stubs that they put up an order even if they plan on getting to the innings or ws anyway

I accidently put my order in for 10 mil so by the time i got it fixed I was order number 513.
Regardless having the BR program done and not much else to do I am just gonna try to grind 250 innings. Use it as an opportunity to play casually online and not worry about the results. I think I can easily make 250 innings before my order fills at this point. I dont expect Randy to fall below one mil and if you dont have an order in already you might not see him for months without earning him

Sure but if you are still enjoying the game what else is there to do. Content is basically done, so might as well work towards something.

yep, that last roster update was bank. I am probably somewhere between 15-20 mil stubs with Mantle already so theres nothing else to spend on

The two people that already have Milestone Randy at parallel 5, really need to touch grass, or snow, or whatever. Just maybe turn the console off.

Im 5-0 in ranked so far so hopefully I can make a run for WS which Ive never been able to hit. Got stuck in the 850's last season when I hit a brick wall and couldn't hit the ball. I fell apart after I lost a game 11-10 at 840ish and let up 4 runs in the 9th.

Those games are soul crushing near the end of a WS run. Good luck!

Only one Randy has sold according to the sold history wonder how accurate that is. Any one has any guesses how long a order placed around the 300 mark might take to go through? A Month maybe two

I think anyone at the 2000+ mark might get it when Mlb the show 23 comes out 🥴

There should be at least 2000 people who make World Series, which means anyone at the 2000+ mark should get it in mid-December at the latest.

Where u get that number from ? . Have my doubts that many people make WS this late even more so plenty won’t sell there Randy. what’s the point nobody needs stubs and everyone has every card they want at this point .
