What are we even supposed to grind offline now?

Show off your ultimate squad online? You must be a unique kind of special. Sorry to break it to you but nobody is impressed by your GOD squad. If that gives you a purpose in life then more power to you. Truthfully, most DD players have normal lives and play to chill and relax not try hard and sweat to death trying to impress their virtual friends.

The xp bonus after each game is very little after each game played and challenge completed. Previous years games offered more xp earned, from the beginning of the release of that game.

I still have four more divisions in TA, the Egg Hunt, the TN, and MTO (lots of MTO for the TA’s) to play.
I don’t seem to have enough time to get through all the stuff, which is weird for an old grumpy retired guy.
How many TA points will you get by completing MTO? I'm still trying to finish 4 divisions also
On Rookie, if you win the world series, you could get around 40k.

@suzypuff14 hey DOFUS! You have no idea how great SDS is to us. Go play any EA sports ultimate team and let me know what you think about that.

You totally missed the point here…there’s literally no flexing going on…. It’s literally how it branded when it was created.
Way to jump to conclusions though… there was zero mention of my team or preferences. Classic.

Wow. SDS has the forum dwellers turning on each other.
That's a shame that is what things have turned into, due to this letdown of a game. -
Y’all act like something is physically preventing you from playing online though.
The other day, delivery wasn’t available. That didn’t mean I couldn’t eat. I simply went out and picked the food up, even though I specifically looked up delivery to avoid going out.

Wait until you’re in your 60s and then talk to us about physical limitations.

This belongs in the “off topic” section of the forum…

waited til today content update to comment on this.
Well ya, not much today. Just some small offline program which was easy to complete in 45 min for me.
Not much to do offline DD now.

The thing that prevents some players from online modes, is that they don't have Xbox Live or Playstation Plus, because they don't play any online multiplayer games. So yes, there are things actually preventing them from doing it.
Enjoy your mini season grind. I hope you win the championship.

Question. So currently on my second run through of Classic Mini Seasons. I still see 6000 XP and ballin pack for making playoffs and 7000 XP for winning championship. Are you saying that once I finish and reset, that you dont get the additional XP anymore for any future runs?
-
Correct they took that away from being a repeatable mission
-
I'm gonna do the egg conquest 4 more times to get my 100 eggs and pack.
-
Sorry the last mission in the egg conquest isn't repeatable either

Yup so those of us with less than 85 vouchers are screwed. I got 60 useless egg vouchers now, thanks SDS. Least they could have done is make the map repeatable.
Its also funny they made no announcement or anything to let people know they were about to all expire. What s shity company, they are EA now.

Physically no, but monetarily. I don't pay for PS plus.
But you are absolutely correct in that DD and UT modes were made for people tp play online H2H. This is how it was set up in 17 when I first played DD. Starting with 18 SDS started to make programs more inclusive with both online and offline grinds. They even set it up at one point that offline grinds were more time consuming. This progressed to how it's been the last couple seasons. I mean that's how we got Mini Seasons, for those of us who don't like people.
The issue I see this year isn't a favoring of online over offline, because I always thought DD did that with BR rewards and RS rewards. The issue is that the program the last few seasons were set up in a way that if you grinded vs CPU you had the ability to get most of the cards out there, if not all with a little pack luck or flip time. Now the programs have minimal grind and land you a smaller amount of good cards with the others having to be purchased.
What I see is SDS wanting to fix the online complaints about seeing the same lineups, mostly grind vs CPU cards, by limiting the cards that can be earned by grinding, thus leaving those who grind CPU for cards just to collect with less to do.

Mini seasons just never really took off, it could have been the most fun offline mode but it needs significantly more things going on. Modes like this (squad battles) work in EA games because there is also a weekly reward based on how much you play and what percentile you land in.
The top 1% 10% 30% 50% sort of thing all get rewards. Conquest, Mini-seasons, and Showdowns should ALL have this implemented years ago. There is no reason SDS can’t give a 10 pack and a BIAH for the players who conquer more strongholds than 90% of other players this week. Same with Mini Seasons and Showdown.
It’s more and more obvious people really don’t understand EAs reward structure and have never played Ultimate Team, the amount of packs and coins you get is basically the shark map you wait for every year on a weekly basis lmao.
