The REAL state of this game

I just want the repeatable xp and stubbs for mini-seasons. Don't know why they nerfed that, having to play 34 games.

The tribalism on these forums is ridiculous. Anytime anyone brings up a valid negative point on the game the same 5 guys or so come to SDS’s defense. If you don’t like what they have to say then ignore it or move on. You don’t need to jump in like the avengers to save the day for SDS.
Amen brother! Those who constantly defend SDS are usually those who are terrible at the game online. It's just a bunch of offline casuals who enjoy beating the cpu on rookie 3-0 every game while eating sammiches, cheetos, and drinking monster energy drinks... Those who write weird flexes of how good they mash the ball with bronze Holliday against the cpu on rookie. "Bronze Holliday is great for me! He's hitting .800 for me on rookie!"
Like bro, if I ever play a game on rookie, I'd never get out. The score would be in triple digits by the 5th inning... smh... -

And if you don't like what SDS is doing; stop playing and posting the same complaints multiple times a day. Its a two-way street.

Not true. 2K has daily login packs, and a wheel spin after 7 days. All season, locker codes are released and this time of year, they're 90+ players.
2K are serious crooks, but be fair.Marc Gasol was like if collection babe Ruth had Randy Johnson's pitching ability, Ricky's speed, and a diamond fielder
I uninstalled when I realized how silly it was playing with him and a juiced Webber I got from the 3v3 mode

this gotta be some sort of test to see how things will go
I think that's exactly what it is, I think Season 1 is their guinea pig to see what we'll let them get away with as far as ripping us off, what we'll tolerate and what we won't.

Friday is a huge make or break for this year.

They nerfed it for the same reason that they made stubs hard to earn and xp hard to get: to incentivize people to buy stubs. The best cards are in packs so far, not programs.
It's so glaringly obvious. If TA2 doesn't address some of this, I'm probably ditching DD.

That is the most "real" post I've read this year so far, it is getting nauseating seeing those fanboys. Can't even point out a real issue without someone chiming in with "git good", "you don't know real baseball", "SDS is so awesome", etc., etc.
It's the same 5 or 6 guys here...same thing on Reddit...the same group of 5 or 6 guys blindly defending the game. Don't get me wrong, when it's unreasonable thing to complain about even I'll jump in and say "c'mon that's ridiculous"...but when it's a completely valid negative point, blind shilling is just an ignorant look.

I think this might be true as well. Streamers, social media, and the forums are all roasting the direction of DD and the game as a whole. They have ears and eyes. But they also have game data and sales data. Tomorrow will indeed be a big day, potentially make-or-break, for this cycle. You can only squeeze your customers so much after releasing a broken game and refusing to apologize.

This fanboy and hater mentality is really not helpful at all. At the end of the day it is all just a matter of opinion. Just because your opinion may be the majority opinion doesn't mean it becomes an objective fact.
This is an open forum. If you post a topic about disliking something then there is a good chance that someone will disagree. But, the reverse is also true. You can't post on an open forum like this and expect it to just be an echo chamber, where everyone falls in line with your opinion and everyone who does not just stays quiet.

when NCAA comes out, the shows being shelved. -
@TrainerMatt21 I can't say for stubs, but there's never been (or has been years) repeatable XP in missions (maps, MS, Showdown). That was probably a slip-up that they corrected.

@Dolenz
Never expect everyone to agree. Do expect people to acknowledge the extremely obvious shift in SDS mentality and stop blantantly ignoring facts and living in denial.

This is very true..

Also remember there's a good number of people in this forum that simply troll opinion posts and don't really contribute one way or another, either.

Friday will not go well. I just know how this community is, people will be upset because they'll drop a chase card or something and like 12 TA cards might be useless. And then the community/ twiiter community will find something to complain about.

@Shauwn You're pretty full of yourself and of assumptions for a 10 year old.

@chucky97___
TBF I think the frustration with the crowd is more to do with SDS complete and utter tone-deafness and out of touch they've become with how they're doling out content et al.
Personally I'm still going to play because I enjoy it, once you start playing for playing and not JUST for the rewards

12 or more TA cards are always useless. So, no. But to play devil's advocate, having useless TA cards this year is more impactful -- stubs are being gatekept, xp is nerfed, and the base is being funneled towards pack-only players.
See now: that's a balanced, legitimate critique. I expect to be straw-manned and lumped with "the community," but I just thought I'd underscore how I'm partially agreeing with you, even though you love to straw man people who critique the game.

@Sarge1387
Yeah that’s true too. I often wonder how little people have going on in their lives to just troll others online. Tyler and a handful of others come to mind.
