Show Classics Debate: Lazy or Fun Throwback?
-
@CDNMoneyMaker93 Gotta disagree there. The entire game is a lazy, phoned-in monetization pit. The 'content' this year is primarily packs, with token programs thrown in (with worse cards than are in the packs).
-
@CDNMoneyMaker93 We don't necessarily know for sure that is the case here. There could be a program. We will know in 1 hour and 36 mins.

There SHOULD be worse cards for free than paid. Could there be a better balance to it? Absolutely but the best cards (massively subjective to an individual) should come at a price.
-
@aaronjw76 While not disagreeing with that. If this is the case the mode and game should be free to play then.
-
If they would just put these packs in program where you could earn a pack instead of just buying, this would all be mute.

I mean this will be a subjective pov, I am enjoying the game as I play all modes so I have lots to do, but I can appreciate where you are coming from
I am really disappointed in how the packs keep rolling out and no way to earn one of them. I'm not asking for free hand out but a something that requires a time investment to earn a pack is not unreasonable

And who pays the licensing fees for the players associated with the cards you want for free?

@aaronjw76 Major League Baseball

I think these old art styles are often hideous (the 42 is neat though). I actually hate using those ugly future stars in my lineups.

-
@CDNMoneyMaker93 No argument there.
The packs will probably be in programs or conquest at some point, when they are outdated and largely useless outside of binder fodder.
-
@hunchoputt 100% laziness. This should have been a program, not another waste of a pack
-
@xxfrystealerxx kinda what I am leaning towards. If you built a fun program around it with throwback events and moments I could get behind that

And thats the biggest problem in the game right now. A ton of packs to buy yet they limit our way to earn stubs by doing ridiculous [censored] like lowering the per game payout, making mini seasons championships a one time bonus etc. Collections last year required 260 or so cards to COMPLETE and they gave us a ton of ways to earn at least most of those cards. Sets 1-3, i was a few cards short of completing but at least i got the first 2 choice packs without spending a dime.
As of now, we need 280 cards just to get the first pack. Its not even gonna be possible to get there without buying stubs. Im a few cards short of Aurilia right now and theres not nearly enough content to for me to get another 160 cards before season 2.

Yep. Packs upon packs, but The Great Stub Depression of 2024. SDS is palpably scummy this year.
Can't WAIT for NCAA 24. I hope EA is observing this and taking notes....hell, at least they improved their franchise mode after community outcry.
-
Anyone on the game? Is there a program associated with this?
-
No programs just the pack and a free Jazz Chisholm and Jackson Holiday. That's it. Saw this and turned off the game.
-
Lol...love the...let's give SDS the benefit of the doubt early posts....geesh guys....writing is on the wall
-
So disappointing
-
Love that they released Jeferson Quero, who is done for the year with a torn labrum. They are so disconnected from the sport.
