I think the expiring cards thing is absolutely insane- didn’t really think about it when the game first released but now that we are getting closer to to season 3 and set 1 cards won’t be useable I really feel cheated
I spent money/stubs on some of these cards they’re my property. I’ve built their averages up and I want to continue to use them and decide on my own if I want to replace them or not
Imagine going to footlocker spending money and buying 3 pairs of sneakers and the manager comes out and says- “thank you for your purchase, you can only wear the brown sneakers for a month and then you have to burn them”
like this makes no sense
You knew this before you bought the game. Why did you buy it? You then knew it and bought the stubs. Why did you buy the stubs? Are you a stupid person?
Is there a reason you’re on here calling people derogatory names? Hopefully you get banned
Kids use this site- you’re an adult are you going to sit here and call any user you want all types of insulting names
This is a discussion and there’s no need for you to act like some sort of tough guy on the internet to anonymous people
I’ve explained myself outright thru out this thread throughly on the first page.
@CBrev47_MLBTS please take a look into this person
Thank you
I hope he contacts me personally to discuss my question to you which I’ll assume the answer is yes. I would love to discuss some things personally with a developer.
He won’t- if he finds fit you’ll just be banned from the forum and from online play in the game.
And fyi cbrev isn’t a developer- he was a content creator then got hired as community manager by sds to control people that don’t know how to behave themselves while interacting in this community
Take care and good luck
I’ll act my age and apologize for asking if your stupid. I should’ve asked my question better. But seriously why did you spend money on stuff you knew was only good for a couple months. So you can just come in here and cry about it and not expect at least one person to call you out on it. You think your group of like 10 people not liking the set up means everyone doesn’t like it.
Once again. I sincerely apologize for being rude.
I accept your apology
I made this thread to express my frustration with the new system which in my eyes is a valid frustration
Nothing more nothing less- I never said we weren’t told about it I never said I was forced to grind or buy stubs
I did it on my own accord
But I still have a right to express my dislike in which it seems this game is headed
Which I did in this thread and it’s obvious numerous other people in the community feel the same way as well( which wasn’t my reason to make this thread for an echo chamber, but it’s still good to see I’m not alone)
I see people making threads on this forum about not being able to hit a HR in a moment on veteran difficulty- no shade to them at all but I do feel if they can make threads about something as simple as that-
Then I should be allowed to make a thread about my frustration that this game is seemingly going to make you pay for stubs to by the same players over and over again because your 99 WBC Trout is banned from online play and they will just make another 99 Trout that’s “eligible” for set 3
Oh and I unmentioned/untagged brev- you seem cool just got off on the wrong foot
I have a feeling as I move along through set 2 that when I lose set 1 I’ll jump into your group of 10 as I put it. I hope the All Star cards will make up for it. I’m a little surprised they didn’t have batter and pitcher wild card to be honest and make these captains usable at all times thus another wild card of sorts.

Yea absolute facts about the pitcher and batter wildcards. I just said in one of my other posts that I wouldn’t have complained if there was an option to bring over 3-4 wildcards after a set is over. I think 3-4 cards would satisfy people but also still make them grind for the new players in the new sets

I can't tell you how much I say from the bottom of my heart I'm so very, very sorry. I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith, as there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that'll be a home run. And so that'll make it a 4-0 ballgame
-
I agree with you on this. I bought Trout for 159k more than a month ago abd got him close to P5. It sucks that in about a month I have to retire him when playing online. Not a fan of it at all.
Now I’m hesitant to bring in set 1 cards pitchers vs cpu and build up their attributes cause I know in about a month they’ll be useless vs playing people online. Again not a fan of this at all

3 wild cards would be a good number. Or even building up from 1 to 4. 1 WC when it’s set 2 and 3 then 2 WC when it’s set 3 and 4. Etc etc etc

Another very good point! I thought about the paralleling of cards after I made my initial post and forgot to add it
That’s really a shame that we worked and put in the time to p5 or attempt to get certain cards to P5 and they are just completely obsolete in about a month when it comes to online play
-
Customers didnt ask for a cash grab, at all. We have been asking for however, is gameplay fixes. Like a new game engine
-
Well...some people (cough cough) were telling everyone this was nothing more then a "money grab" from the jump.
"SDS would never do that!" was a very common response.
Look...I get it, they want to make more money.
But...don't pee on my head and tell me it's raining.
Maybe the WORST part of it was having to hear the fanboys and shills try to explain how that wasn't the case and that this was going to make the mode better.
It was funny how they tried to say this was all about getting "more lineup variety"...as if SDS actually cares that everyone uses the SAME lineups.
This was about creating a constant demand for OP'd cards, while limiting the supply of those cards so that players who want the best, newest, shiniest cards will have to eventually fork over some money and buy some Stubs for them.
They know based on their numbers who will buy Stubs and when they will buy them. They know what players will NEVER buy Stubs...and they know which players will ALWAYS buy them...especially the one's who buy them to create content...so that they can get views...so that they can make money.
That's why they had to throw Streamers a bone with the No Sell Battle Royale rewards.
SDS knows that in the long run, Streamers are some of their BEST customers...because they are basically using YouTube ad revenue to buy Stubs.
The Streamers will love it too because it gives them even more new cards to create videos about.
Remember that last part when you start seeing Streamers make videos telling you how AWESOME this new way of doing things is...
Don't forget that they have a vested, monetary interest in telling you it's a GOOD thing.

What an amazing breakdown @BrikMahorn_XBL
Bravo sir… and yes that thought def crossed my mind yesterday. They are doing this to appease streams/content creators which is a shame because they are the few of the community not the majority

Just sell your set 1 cards and buy the new ones. Think of it as going to Footlocker and getting the new Jordans, only to find out a months later that there is a way cooler version that just came out. You go back to Footlocker and exchange the "old" Jordans for the newer ones. Problem solved.
Now if you locked in your expensive Set 1 cards, that's on you bud. Think of that as taking your new Jordans on a hike through a swamp. Can't help you there.

So what you’re saying is that you know for sure that set one cards will be forever obsolete and useless in month?
I have no idea in regards to that bc sds has not said anything at all about what’s going to happen with those cards.
How do you know you won’t need those cards in the future for a big collection?
And most people locked in most of their cards from Set 1 to get chipper, babe, Pedro.
Appreciate your tongue in cheek response but it’s not really a viable option as set 1 cards aren’t nearly as much as they were previously- except for a few.
You want me to sell 99 Griffey to buy a new 99 Griffey and that’s what I’m m saying is absolutely laughable about this whole process

Lol well what do ya know- they just announced a 97 Santana releasing tomorrow after releasing a 95 Santana a couple weeks ago lol

I just have to laugh at this point. I have yet to see anything in this game that truly makes logical sense to me this year. The entire game just feels like the Set 1 and Set 2 binders to me with a bunch of random stuff just thrown in there.

The main issue I have is with people who say that they have no problem with it because there will be a lot of great other cards coming out to make up for it. A lot of these people only play online and only play with specific cards so they aren’t going to care. However, if there are people out there who got on people for complaining about the sets and now will be complaining themselves, that’s their issue. I don’t have sympathy for hypocrites.
People like me will be completely screwed. I play a lot of team build teams from one team from TA. Who wants to use a bunch of live series Tigers?

Yea this is beyond strange- well at least to me it is because the show is the only game I play. But according to others the show is just following suit of other games like madden etc etc
I’m just kinda wiping my hands with it and I’ll see what happens in July with the cards I’ve acquired
I’m just going to play ranked until then and if I don’t have a good enough team to compete in July because they’ve taken away my cards then I’ll just find another hobby I guess
Sucks because I really do enjoy the show and baseball but it’s outta my hands now

Nope, don't know anything for sure, just offering a simple solution. I'm one of those people that competed the set 1 collection with the majority being No sell cards you get for playing the game and the rest were cards close to QS value. It is definitely viable.
If you don't want to sell your 99 Griffey then don't. Use him as your wild slot until the better 99 Griffey comes along. Sell him then. Every year there are multiple cards for players. Last year think Smoltz had like 5 or something (Or was that 21). I really don't understand what the issue is here.

Last year there were two 99 griffeys released- one was horrible and the other was great
You were never forced or mandated to put on Griffey down and play with another lol
Do you know how much grinding was needed to complete set 1 to get chipper babe and Pedro?
Now you can’t even use them for the rest of the year lol
I value my time a little more than that- lol m sorry
But if you have hours upon hours upon hours to grind a game for cards that sds will tell you when you can or cannot use them then you’re just a much better person then me in that regards that doesn’t mind to spend their time on things that will be useless in two months

I think the expiring cards thing is absolutely insane- didn’t really think about it when the game first released but now that we are getting closer to to season 3 and set 1 cards won’t be useable I really feel cheated
I spent money/stubs on some of these cards they’re my property. I’ve built their averages up and I want to continue to use them and decide on my own if I want to replace them or not
Imagine going to footlocker spending money and buying 3 pairs of sneakers and the manager comes out and says- “thank you for your purchase, you can only wear the brown sneakers for a month and then you have to burn them”
like this makes no sense
Just sell your set 1 cards and buy the new ones. Think of it as going to Footlocker and getting the new Jordans, only to find out a months later that there is a way cooler version that just came out. You go back to Footlocker and exchange the "old" Jordans for the newer ones. Problem solved.
Now if you locked in your expensive Set 1 cards, that's on you bud. Think of that as taking your new Jordans on a hike through a swamp. Can't help you there.
So what you’re saying is that you know for sure that set one cards will be forever obsolete and useless in month?
I have no idea in regards to that bc sds has not said anything at all about what’s going to happen with those cards.
How do you know you won’t need those cards in the future for a big collection?
And most people locked in most of their cards from Set 1 to get chipper, babe, Pedro.
Appreciate your tongue in cheek response but it’s not really a viable option as set 1 cards aren’t nearly as much as they were previously- except for a few.
You want me to sell 99 Griffey to buy a new 99 Griffey and that’s what I’m m saying is absolutely laughable about this whole process
Nope, don't know anything for sure, just offering a simple solution. I'm one of those people that competed the set 1 collection with the majority being No sell cards you get for playing the game and the rest were cards close to QS value. It is definitely viable.
If you don't want to sell your 99 Griffey then don't. Use him as your wild slot until the better 99 Griffey comes along. Sell him then. Every year there are multiple cards for players. Last year think Smoltz had like 5 or something (Or was that 21). I really don't understand what the issue is here.
Last year there were two 99 griffeys released- one was horrible and the other was great
You were never forced or mandated to put on Griffey down and play with another lol
Do you know how much grinding was needed to complete set 1 to get chipper babe and Pedro?
Now you can’t even use them for the rest of the year lol
I value my time a little more than that- lol m sorry
But if you have hours upon hours upon hours to grind a game for cards that sds will tell you when you can or cannot use them then you’re just a much better person then me in that regards that doesn’t mind to spend their time on things that will be useless in two months
If you have an issue with the grind, then that is a different OP. The game has always been a grind. Not sure why you care how I spend my time, but there are plenty of Chippers out there. It's really not much of a grind to get 1 or 2 of the collection rewards.
You can use them the rest of the year in the wild card slot and as a Braves fan, Chipper is my guy. So yeah, it was worth the grind to have that card to play with for the rest of the year.
In any case, I was just trying to offer you a solution, but you clearly do not want to hear it and prefer to stand pat in your bitterness (while you LOL obsessively).
To that my friend, good luck to you and I bid you adieu.

My gripe is very clearly written out in the OP
This game has turned into a money grab because they release cards that are only obtainable thru buying packs or buying the card outright
And then they tell you when you can’t and can use it.
That makes no sense- and on top of that you have to do tons of hours to grind for collections cards that, what for it, they tell when you can or cannot use them
Sds was NEVER like this
And if you’re ok with it then you’ll be ok when sds is just like madden or 2k come next year or the year after
You enjoy yourself and your day- I hope the sds check is worth it
Bc you must be getting paid to be so obtuse to not see why people would have an issue with this
I mean just look at this thread- it’s 80+ comments and the majority are overwhelmingly in agreement with me
But I guess you’re the outlier- peace

That is not the point. He, like many others, thinks that if you grind many hours for a card, or even spend stubs on one, then those cards that you earned should not expire. This is not about grinding or getting free cards. This is about having a card that you earned, being deemed basically useless.
