Deep Dive into Season 3.
Can't link as I'm on the mobile app.
-
Highlights:
- Power Creep reset, but only down to 95
- 2 6-week XP Paths instead of 1 12-week XP Path
- 2X XP Weekend to start the Season
- Daily XP Cap raised from 15K to 30K
- Head Start Rewards:
- TA 3.1 features new card series
*TA 3.1 will NOT have season requirements (You should be able to use S1 and S2 cards to earn S3 Team Affinity).
*Only 2 TA3 Chapters (to match the XP paths)
And then whatever the heck this is...
-
Interesting. TWO XP Reward Paths. Each 6 weeks long.
XP 3.1 goes to 160K and you can earn 2 99 ovr Bosses.
XP 3.2 goes to 350K where you can earn 3 more 99 ovr Bosses.
Only bad thing is XP 3.1 ends when 3.2 starts. So you have to complete it to get the 2 Bosses BEFORE 3.2 drops.
Double XP Labor Day weekend.
And starting with S3; XP cap doubles to 30k and stays at 30K for the test of 24s cycle.
And looks like @SaveFarris_PSN hooked us up.

Pretty sure that Conquest image is from the Extreme Program.

So maybe we are getting double xp this weekend? to finish S2, they usually do it every other weekend.
Also, does anyone remember how long the Innings were?
-
@SaveFarris_PSN so did they get rid of the Wildcards? All cards eligible?
-
The doubling of the xp cap is misplaced. They needed to double gameplay xp for the rest of the year, not the cap. I doubt many people are playing enough at this point to even hit the lower cap let alone 30k xp at the current xp rate per game

Not until Season 4. But I think you can use any card to get progress towards TA 3 CH 1.
Everything else stays the same.
And you earn NEW WC slots. Any you eardned this season don't carry over to the new season.

The only thing I don't like is the fact that you have to complete the moments of glory program to get the head start. But I did notice that one thing said you needed to complete the Moments of glory program but the other said Moonshot program so which is it?

@GradektheBard_PSN mentioned this in another post.
-
Read the post and then look at the list -- the post says complete the moonshot program for next season credit but the list ( S2 recap image ) says the moments.
SDS -- NM -- you guys somehow still find a way to step in BEEP even when giving out good news and info
I know I am being kind of nit picky but after pointing out the error in the moments and now this it makes me wonder who is double checking the work that is done for this game.
ADDON --- I like the fact the XP cap will raise from 15 to 30k BUT the XP we earn is still very slow from gameplay so unless they want to buff that a little ( 15 to 25 % ) then not going to lie this bump means jack in a lot of ways

@X-FREEZE-OFF-X_PSN
Yep, that’s the extreme map all right. -
I think that in order for people to continue to play into season 3 the they need to add some kind of missions to the moments of glory program so that way people who are struggling alot with the moments have something to grind to finish the program
-
I'm thrilled CQE is coming back but what was needed was a return of all time teams.

I don't see it as any different than this season when you needed to complete Egg Hunt, which left all of us who don't play online short of being able todo them all (I also did not anywhere close to the 250 S1 Cards needed for that one either. Shoot I still don't have that many season 1 cards.
Looks like I will come up short on 2 or possibly 3 of them. I don't have enough for the All Star Collectiion or Action Series collection. And I am not sure I want to do the Beltre mission. Just too many teams you have to earn PXP and Stats with.
-
@Dolenz_PSN then you not getting any of the head starts is entirely a you problem and not an SDS problem. They gave you the avenues to get them, and you’re actively choosing not to.

Did I blame SDS? I just stated a the fact that I did not get all of the head starts in Season 2 and it looks like I won't for season 3.
I flat out said
And I am not sure I want to do the Beltre program.
Who else would that be on but me?
-
They’re programs that take like an hour to grind. Just do them. And stop complaining.
-
Again, a statement of fact does not equal a complaint. But feel free to misinterpret my statements all you want.

The blog, as far as moonshot, is stating that there will be another one or two (not certain) action figures to gain. However, the head start is definitely referencing the moments of glory program.
