i wish the cards were sellable where people who arent good enough to complete the program could obtain the cards
The people who aren't good enough (like me!) will keep earning PXP and earn the cards eventually 3 program points at a time.
Frankly, it's the fairest option they could have done.
I wish the cards were also sellable. Not because it’s extreme, but because I wish EVERYTHING was potentially sellable.
If I earn it, I should have the choice what to do with it Keep it, sell it, QS it, should be up to me as the owner of the card.
IMO.

If they continue with extreme they have to increase the difficulty. People shouldn’t be finishing extreme in a couple days

I understand the WS and Flawless rewards not being sellable when earned through the program because anyone can "achieve" them in that manner just by playing a lot. You don't even have to win a single game and you can still get those rewards.
If Extreme rewards were sellable, they would all be priced incredibly high like Elly or Mantle currently due to the difficulty in obtaining them.
Everything else should be sellable though IMO.

Then do so. Nobody is forcing you to do the extreme program.
@samguenther1987 said in No more Extreme please:
Less then 5% will finish this program and thats the way extreme is meant to be, it's a challenge. It's meant to be done in months not days, certainly not over 1 weekend.
Making the cards sellable would defeat the purpose of the program because everyone would just buy all the cards I see no reward in that.I both agree and disagree. The challenge is the point of the Extreme. Aboslutely. It should be hard
But if only 5% earn the cards and they all sell them then it's not like there are extra cards on the market. It is still the same number of cards they are just in different hands.
It makes no difference to me either way though. I'm not good enough to earn it and too poor/cheap, stub-wise, to purchase it.
My issue is not the program itself I didn’t do it last year and won’t this year but to release nothing else for two weeks is dumb
Oh, I agree I have posted several times how they seem to be leaving the non-Extreme people in limbo for two weeks.
I even posted the same thing on reddit and got ridiculed and downvoted to oblivion.
My issue with the delay is that there is a good chance my already miniscule playtime is cut even more come Sept. Just too many other games I want to play coming out.

I understand not everyone wants to, or does complete all of the programs but why wouldn't people even want to attempt Extreme?
I am not what anyone would consider an average player, much worse TBH, but I will still complete every aspect of the Extreme program (Showdown, Conquest, Moments, & Mini) because I like to be challenged. I could complete it just by playing Mini on AS a bunch of times but there is no real challenge doing that IMO.
It won't be easy nor will it be quick, I will become very frustrated/irritated multiple times and will break numerous old controllers* out of said frustration/irritation, but I will complete it.
*I like to pick up a few cheap PS4 controllers at a local Pawn Shop for a buck or two to smash to pieces when I get extremely irritated. Better than breaking a $60 controller.

KevinGohd from Youtube finished moments in 10 hours. I have no patience for moments. I'd rather take my time with pxp.

I will say the conquest was the most fun I’ve had grinding offline in a long time and I’ve really enjoyed the mini seasons so far. It’s not easy to get challenged by the AI in any game. Madden, 2k, MLB.. you can always dominate the CPU. This is actually a little challenging and fun.
I won’t touch the moments or showdown though. I hate moments and showdowns are just glorified moments.
If they made showdowns count PXP for the players you use like in BR, I’d probably feel a lot better about playing them.

Not my cup of tea I do every other program but this one is too difficult for me and I accept that so I wish something else minor was available I am just asking for Topps now on Friday

If you can beat the CPU on AS, then you can finish Extreme. It'll take a while but no one said it has to be done in a specific time limit.

I understand its suppose to be hard but i wish the cards were sellable where people who arent good enough to complete the program could obtain the cards , and the people who are good enough could make extra stubs if they wanted to sell.

Making the cards sellable would defeat the purpose of the program because everyone would just buy all the cards I see no reward in that. I may not do the moments but i am certainly going to use Wagner, Marte etc until there missions are done and i'll have fun doing it too.
This one is actually really watered down compared to the first one i ever did in 2019, there was no repeat of PXP and the conquest map was more difficult than then one (i actually love the set up for the conquest map this year) and we didn't have mini seasons to get vouchers from.
I believe a lot more than 5% will complete it. It won't be quickly but there are easy ways to finish it. They're time consuming but much easier.
Ok thats fair, my only point was that extreme should be hard not something to be done quickly.
Honestly, I feel it was too easy and this isn't a brag, but I did it pretty easily within the weekend (I'm not a world series player). It really just takes patience and a little strategy. They even have a way to buy some points with stubs with the events collection. I didn't even touch mini seasons vouchers to do it either and skipped the perfect game and Soto moments because I suck on legend. IMO too large of a percent of the player base just wants to log on and be handed things meant to take awhile and then complain there isn't enough content. This year's extreme gave a lot of options to complete it.

@Tuke7-1_PSN said in No more Extreme please:

Several reasons for me..
-
It is difficult enough that with my skill level it will frustrate me. I don't want to be frustrated for hours on end.
-
Honestly, while the Griffey card is nice, I don't feel like the rewards are worth the time and potential frustration to get them.
-
-
I don't bother. I like a challenge too but these just aren't fun. I've found the moments and showdowns this year a little too easy and figured that was their way of easing the ridiculousness of expiring cards but these are too far the other direction that I find them not enjoyable enough to deal with the shenanigans that come with moments and showdowns. Especially when, since 4 days after release, its was way to easy to build an awesome squad of 90 and up players, who needs the headache for similar cards to what we already have. SDS really needs to find an even keel next year for game modes and rewards.

And what sense of entitlement you have to think it's your job to police opinions. So your opinion matters but his doesn't? And what's the point of this anyway? You seem oddly upset by his opinion......not sure if you are aware but these forums exist for gamers to discuss many things including their opinions on stuff.

Yeah, unfortunately this forum isn’t too great at providing help. It’s more about voicing your opinion and then either being supported or attacked depending on what side of the fence you appear to be on. There are 2 very distinct camps on here so you are gonna get attacked no matter what. Then you factor in the random troll and internet tough guy and it becomes downright toxic.

Once you get to Griffey you will love him, boosted by Cal he gets so much better.

first of all - shut your mouth with your nonsense
i am not upset at all - i am also not the one making a post to say "remove this from game bc i don't like it"
this is a PSA for all of you who make these absolute whiney sob stories - it is extremely unattractive and socially dense to think we all care about what you are unhappy about - many find Extreme program rewarding and fun - if you don't like it, throw your system in the toilet or game - no one cares - repeat that in your head - no. one. cares.
this has nothing to do with "get good" - so learn how to read english and digest what i said
this has to do with the idea that thinking your opinion actually MATTERS - in reality this forum is nothing more than a sounding board for the good, bad, and the ugly
i certainly know where you and the OP fall in this category
so again - learn how to read, learn how to listen, and grow up with your nonsense reply
