Halloween programs
-
I got 19K's with Tyler Anderson in a vs cpu game and got a TREAT VOUCHER. Completed Treat program and got Yaz.
UPDATE -
after this, did a mini seasons game. started mckenzie, but only pitched him 2 innings. he had 3k's. Did not parallel him, he's still like 70 points away from the first parraell.
But it gave me 2 trick cards. Not sure if the 13 K's from my vs cpu game added to the 3 in the mini seasons game to get him over 15.
-
I played an offline game against the rockies pitching triston mckenzie, and I needed a few hits for jake cronenworth and patrick wisdom to reach thirteen hits each, and after the game when I completed those goals nothing unlocked for me. I'm currently one trick voucher away from completing that last program, and from what it looks like I'm probably going to have to defeat showdown to get that last voucher, and the worst thing is that I haven't been able to complete a showdown yet this year. My last hope is to try to get thirteen hits with mike yastrzemski I'm guessing.

Yep I’m in a similar boat. The vouchers are random. Don’t waste your time with the 13 hits as I’ve done it with all the programs players and got zero vouchers for it. These programs are a troll job with no direction and awarded as the game sees fit. This is just one of many things in this years game where I just shake my head and ask what the heck they were thinking.

Yea the decision making has been rough all year first was incognito then the dinosaur cards and my least favorite was the snapshot series. They have had some good moments here and there but man what is going wrong
-
I get that they want this program to be different than the others, but, like most of us, I wish they would give a few more hints as to what is needed.

Having just finished the trick and treat programs my advice would be to complete the showdown and conquest at least once and if needed multiple times. Don’t worry about using any specific players. Just play the game and get random rewards for things like stolen bases, hits, runs, HRs and Ks. The conquest is easy as usual and although I really dislike showdown this one was the easiest of the year so far. This program took me far too long trying to use certain players to accumulate specific stats. If I could do it all over again I’d probably just play the conquest and showdown multiple times. Good luck to all players still working on these Halloween programs.

Personally, I don't care about the cards in the programs, so I am not in any hurry to finish them. As I play conquest games (on any maps so far) and CPU games, I am getting tickets. Eventually, I'll have the ten of each I need and I will redeem them at that time. I have filed them in the back of my subconscious as I have with the Extreme program.

I didn’t get any from my two conquest games. Got one trick and treat from my two mini seasons games. Got one trick and treat from two events games. Got one each from a ranked game, not sure how many strikeouts, but pitched a complete game. Got a whole bunch from vs cpu games, not sure what I did special.
Final trick from a game with a complete game with Mackenzie with over 13 strikeouts.
Final treat with over thirteen strikeouts with Anderson complete game. Also stole two bases with Cronenworth.
Never touched showdown.

I just got a Trick one in a game I lost to the Astros (on HOF) in the CS conquest map.
-
Sounds like they went heavier with the tricks and light on the treats.
Now that I think about it….what a fantastic metaphor for MLBTS23.
-
I just need one trick voucher and I completed the jack-o-lantern conquest three times, but I just keep getting the treat voucher now.

I had to do showdown twice. It's done though.
-
I got a Trick vouchers once I got the program McKenzie to 500 pxp.
-
Did I really just complete the Showdown for a single Trick Voucher? What a waste. Granted it was easy, but took twice as long as it should have since the pitching is so terrible.

I feel ya Gixxer….after so many horrible pitches a man just can’t help but swinging at the garbage just to move things along! These showdowns are the bane of my existence when it comes to this game….especially the fact that after you get a considerable chunk of time invested only to lose or tie one of your last matches only to have to start it all over again. Seriously I don’t think I’ve ever played another mode in any video game going back to 1980 that i loathe worse than these Showdowns.
-
+1 to Bunny. I had been skipping Showdowns pretty much all year - not because they’re hard but because they are just so far away from fun to me. Had to do this one as I needed 1 more Trick voucher but hopefully that’s the last.
-
Every time I get a random Trick/Treat voucher:
-
I wound up completing the showdown to get the last trick voucher I needed to complete the program. I have to admit that this showdown was the easiest, finally a showdown that I was able to complete this year.
-
I have 1 trick and 1 treat left. Driving me crazy — don’t care about the cards, just want to complete the programs. It all seems so random. Would have been a lot more fun with at least a few more clues.

I'm with you, but I'm finding the TA ones easier than I thought they would be.
