This game is cooked

@BJDUBBYAH 1. Didn’t say it was a lot.
2. How are products gonna improve without feedback.
3.i don’t care how much it is if I’m paying for it I want it to function as it should champ. -
I wish SE would ban all posters who are negative just to negative.
-
I am someone who has been critical ( I believe for most part rightly ) but I also TRY and offer solutions to what I think are the issues. I have to agree that some just whine and offer no feedback accept this game sucks and that is not helpful to SDS or the community.

SDS simps hit this post harder than Courtney Love hit the crack pipe

@blitz77tw it's also not helpful that SDS focuses on pushing paid content instead of fixing their game. Why are you putting the onus on the victim (paid $80) and not the victimizer (SDS)?

I cannot win with some of you players -- IF i say too much bad I am a hater but when I step back and say let's see if they listen to the feedback or more patience then I get roasted.
My bottom line with this game is this and only going to state this ONE time cause I think I am been pretty consistent with my posts on this game for the most part and it's this :
SDS has made some poor decisions with this years game starting with 70 to 80% of the content involving the shop. Then we have and this is where I will admit I was wrong at least in terms of patience to see how it played out and that was the XP cap. As it turns out the CAP is not the problem it's the fact they nerfed XP by 50% and that is the issue and this is something that I realized going from the norm XP to Double XP and then returning back to normal.
There are more issues but in the end I decided while I might still be critical at times I was going to go from destroying them every day or two and decided maybe I should chill and see if they listen and revert / make up for this garbage in season 2. If I do not see a change then I plan on giving SDS both barrels of my wrath but I really hope they change cause I love this game. I hope this clears things up and if it does not then I am not sure what to say accept -- chill out until season 2.

I gotta disagree here: I don't think content has been good
Easter Program
Jackie Program
Graveman conquest
These were all fine, but there was no big program like the WBC or even the Kaiju or Great Race program last year and this was missed.
Additionally, the reduction of conquest maps from 3 to 1 for TA part 2 was a joke, and they crippled the rewards on top of it.The Legends mini season was fine too, however I found the selection of Legends rather limiting outside of the day 1 TA cards that I was looking for more of a break from.
In general I dont feel there has been something tying the season together either. Pipelines scattered throughout TA2 and packs, but no program. Hyper just feels kind of there, but that may be the TA part 3 focus.
The biggest miss was Fresh Start being a brilliant idea that was absolutely wasted. Would have been a great lead in to start of the season.
It just feels we ended up with a bunch of excuses to sell packs. And there is a reason it feels that way....

Feedback would cite specific things about the content that “suck”
If you would like SDS, who you’ve said “sucks” in other threads to take feedback from you, give them some specifics.
I’m sure it will be about packs.

I agree with you completely. Abd as far as previous post, I think a lot of us have given solutions, we just know they will be falling on deaf ears.
In my opinion 2 easiest fixes to content this year are: more specialty packs in programs. They can keep putting out these packs, but I want to see all of them showing up as either hidden rewards in conquest or part of program paths. As it stands right now it's a bad look that so many cards can only be purchased. And second would be moving to a weekly xp cap. But honestly it looks like putting out more xp programs along with more double xp weekends will likely allow for most of us to get to the end by the time the season is up. Which is clearly their intent. To have us unlocking bosses toward end of season.
So it's very easy to satisfy me, they can keep putting out a ton of packs for the big spenders to buy, but make em a bit more accessible for free. We don't need every card to be free, but it's very stingy the way they are this year.

@nflman2033
Man, I'm honestly kinda over the downgraded XP system this year. I'm putting in the same game time I do every year, except this year I'm not being rewarded for it. S2 is going to make or break this game, and that's just my own opinion. Any other year I put this amount of time in and I get one or two of the bosses...this year...not at all. Not even gonna sniff the first boss...
IF they are smart enough to revert back to previous year's in-game XP, that would likely go a long way in keeping people around. Do this, and put a few of those program packs in the reward path of the program themselves...those two things would go a long long way with the community

This is exactly how I feel. We're about 4 weeks away from the end of Season 1, and I've been playing a lot. I'm weeks away from getting to the first boss pack. Once I get it, I can use it for a few weeks? Ugh. Plus, doing the math, I still think I will have to buy a bunch of cards to get to the collection rewards.
As of now, I'll do the best I can to see where I end up on Season 1. Then I'll probably go back to RTTS to keep "warm" for the rest of the cycle. I just don't have it in me any more. I started DD in May 2020, and I'm just burned out. This game cycle just pushed me over the edge.

Uh, what? "Content" to almost everyone refers not just to the cards, but to the delivery methods for getting those cards.

Can we all just admit that DD is basically a drug addiction simulator? We're all bitching on here about not getting the same high from the hits while the supplier is getting stingier and stingier with the good stuff to incentivize us to pay more and more for it.
I really do thank SDS for breaking my habit. I'm really enjoying Madden franchise again. The Lions are such a great team to start with -- Gibbs, Branch, Laporta, Sewell, St. Brown, Hutch, a few others -- so many great young studs to develop. Resigning day hurts, though...

@blitz77tw I understand what you're saying. I love the game too. If I didn't I wouldn't still play it AND [censored] about it. I would just [censored] off and never give it a chance again.
They do not DESERVE any form of praise for anything in the current state of the game. It's not about you "winning" something over on me or with me. If your employee is [censored] up at work that costs your company money but he occasionally sends an email out on time you don't say "gee that's a great email! Keep up the good work!" As he breaks every [censored] thing in your office. That's called enabling. You're being an enabler when you praise them for NOT fixing the problem. I don't give two shits about you saying something I agree with. It's the fact you're on with their [censored] content drops that are literally ONLY to make a profit off of the whales and simps. They don't care to fix their broken [censored] game because dumbasses pay them anyways.
It's like Chinese mobile game devs run SDS. [censored], mobile baseball games are probably better! -

I understand your feelings I really do. I also understand SDS standpoint on not wanting boosters to get the bosses too soon. While I personally don't care what boosters do since I don't play other people in DD, I at least see a purpose for what they are doing and I actually do see them fast tracking most every one to get there by the end. I am way more upset with not getting enough free special packs. These free packs in the past are a big part of helping market prices get from being out of control.
I actually have hope they will start putting more of these in upcoming programs, probably for sure in the season 2 xp program. Of course it would not surprise me either way. But I would really be surprised if they do anything about XP, I think they believe XP is working the way it is intended.

@sbchamps17 being negative and being realistic usually come hand in hand. The attitude of be happy with what we have is a loser mentality. Nothing gets better that way.
yeah as a consumer you're not allowed to have fun cause we arent being spoiled anymore, only negative feedback and make sure you post about foul balls, and how every one of your good swings are outs and opp's bad swings are hits.
