    I got the daily cap message at 29550 today and can't gain any for almost 9 hours. Seems a bit random and silly.

    I have played a LOT more in a day a LOT of times and never ever hit an xp cap. I didn't even know there WAS an xp cap. I have definitely earned tons more xp in a day than today and never been given that message. Is this a glitch? I only did moments and showdowns today.

    If this is the case then I want my money back, because I work most of the time and the days I do have off I plan on grinding.

    I have NEVER hit a cap before until today. I took one day off to have fun with the game and I get put in time out for playing? I'm not playing for the XP, but it sure would be nice to get what I earned.

    This XP cap thing is the thing if I am being honest that really gets to me specially since it seemed to have been lowered from 60k to around 30 to 40k from reports from other players. It blows my mind for SDS to charge us more for the game for early access ONLY to slow us down via a XP cap and lowered XP from games (maybe other things). I was not ok with 60 but I can understand it and let's be honest 60k even in past games was a decent amount per day but now with lesser XP why the heck did they even lower it ( assuming not a bug) ?

    I am done for now pointing out these issues cause it kind of ticks me off so just on a grind session and hoping we get a patch in the next 24 to 48 hours that corrects these issues. Then we can all get back to having fun that is not regulated by SDS telling us how we should play a game we all spent around a 100 bucks on give or take.

    Have fun and lets hope this junk gets fixed soon -- back to the grind and the ball fest in CPU games.

    Can you still progress in the minors even if i hit the daily cap (which is wild, i was j playing the game). Like for example can I get to the majors from AAA despite hitting the cap

    What about the people that can’t play the game everyday. They will never be able to catch up if they can only grind 1-2 days a week. This game caters to people that are good and play everyday waking minute of their life

    You should be fine. Your RTTS player does gain game play XP but nothing about their advancement is contingent on XP earned.

    It should not hinder you at all if you hit the XP cap. It is a Diamond Dynasty issue.

    Just wanted to add on...I hate the XP CAP as a guy who plays a lot on his w days off work and not much on the other days. This really hurt my ability to maximize my grind time.

    The Daily XP Cap hit is truly awful. I understand their reasoning behind it, but if someone wants to spend their valuable time playing, then they should be rewarded. Some people only get a day or 2 where they can actually sit down and play. The casual players can't get the most out of their time and the die hards are going to be pushed away. So many rewards are locked behind XP creep. It's literally advertised as "Play any mode in MLB THE Show! Each game you play earns XP which progresses this program and unlocks new rewards." which is obviously false. Huge swing and a miss by SDS.

    @aaronjw76 YES! Why complete other challenges or modes and waste the XP that could be gained the next day?!

    We should be able to play & earn XP whenever WE want to play.

    I do not play every day and still like the cap, because it is an important way to keep the power creep under control. Otherwise we would run into tons of Napolis etc. …
    I still do not get the outrage

    @YOSHI24 Why should I pay $100 for a game that tells me how much Im allowed to play to earn rewards.. in a reward based game mode? I could care less if someone genuinely wanted to spend all their time grinding to get whatever they want. Good for them, but if I have a day or two during the week to play I shouldn't be told I can't progress. This is a lazy solution to whatever problems they're trying to fix. Fix the reward system and progression path, don't cap a paying customer on what they can do when were literally told "Play the game the earn XP!" to progress. Lazy and no creativity.

    Imagine playing an RPG game that has a xp cap after a few hours of grinding.
    Then the company/community literally tells you to focus on having fun Instead of progressing by grinding xp.

    Now, you're level 8 in the rpg, and the first dungeon requirement is level 10. The only thing you can do now is kill bunnies without earning anymore xp.. Who would waste their time?

    Point is, when the ability to progress through the main xp path is capped, I will not play the game for the day. There's zero point grinding without earning xp.
    Of course u still can knock out TA, Conquest, do br runs, events, and play ranked, but why would you want to grind those modes for hours if your xp is already capped.

    IT MAKES ZERO LOGICAL SENSE AS A GAMER, PERIOD!

    Sorry but XP caps are dumb in any game. Why keep playing if you’re not earning XP in a game that rewards earning XP? I understand why they want to slow things down, but people sometimes have to binge a game when they have time. We aren’t all content creators that play all day long to unlock cards. It’s a childish punishment.

    Even as a content creator the cap is a waste of my time. Go live hit the cap then switch games I loose almost 30 percent of my viewers. Also im not a big name streamer I play the games to have fun with my friends and community.

    @DaveJohnson1 Exactly, it puts people who are already at a disadvantage even more at a disadvantage.

    I've been playing everyday. Today I played 15 Conquest games and 2 vs CPU 9 inning games I hit the cap for the first time since launch, I probably earned about 35-40k XP today, that's not alot, I can play Saturday and Sundays unlimited, but only 2-3 hours during the week.
