    I've been more defensive than not so far, but today's content drop is a HUGE disappointment.

    -New choice pack drops, but still no way to earn any of them offline (I see one added online at least, but on a node most people will never reach)
    -Egg hunt is cool, but it feels like a side thing
    -Where is the WBC length program? The Mexico city length program? New Mini Season?
    -The two programs already in game were short and most players would complete them in a couple days
    -No new programs mentioned in the news

    What happened to last years great content cadence in seasons 1 and 2? I expected that again early in the year.

    This whole forum last year along with the soical pages of people complaining that the game was to much of a grind so this community is to blame for the content structure we have right now

    No long programs? I haven't even finished one division in the TA yet. I think they are fine.

    You may be right, but they should use the ranked as a model:
    They put the main reward at 100 stars, then have a bunch of stuff past that thats super grindy with a choice pack at the end

    Not in the news but on the stream they announced " best of season" which starts next Friday and is the new version of Topps now/potm.

    Thank you SDS for abandoning the ridiculous programs from the past two years. It was like a full time job to complete them and caused to stop playing in May last year. This year is refreshing and I am truly shocked at how much I want to play. If it was anything like last season I would probably already be done playing.

    @Honor_The_Game44 There has to be a medium where casual players aren't overwhelmed, but players that play a lot aren't completely out of things to do two weeks into the game.

    There used to be some very large programs that ran in the background of all the other content in this game, and if you're done with all the normal content you can at least grind towards something in the meantime while you're waiting for what's next.

    SDS constantly adding 40k packs to the store, without any way to earn them in programs, is definitely not helping as well.

    I've already added a possible solution here: Extend programs past the final card (like ranked and BR). For example, make the spring break program twice as long but add a few more packs and cap with a spring breakout pack.

    Its also okay to have programs with "mid" cards. That way the god squad chasers can skip them, but the people that enjoy them can still enjoy them. Although the addition of set collections actually hurts this I guess, because than the god squadders feel compelled to do them.

    I see this now, and it looks like its Tuesday. Lets see how this is.

    At least the egg hunt is fun (imo), the Wade Boggs egg had me laughing.
