I'll suffer my way through it but I don't like it. I'd rather do endless conquest maps, mini seasons or whatever else. I don't like showdowns but I'll eek my way through them. I think they adjust sliders IMO.
The sweeper isnt necessary at all for casual gamers already forced to play at a sweaty level. All Star difficulty is my highest I'll go. Yet forced to play on legendary. That ruins the casual experience.
I just NOPE out of the sweeper for now. He usually gives a pretty hefty debuff, but its just for one game. And a good chunk of the time it will be an offense debuff and then you get a pitching moment
My issue with the mode is I don't like showdown and moments can be VERY luck dependent. And neither gives you stats/pxp. But I do think rewards wise its worthwhile and I can see it being great during slower times. I think ill do a lot of blitzing the stadiums for lower chance runs. And when my team is bit better Ill try the sweeper every now and then, if the teams stay live series (which I doubt they will) I can probably win occasionally with a mid diamond squad.

@Teak2112_MLBTS kinda what I thought. I'll play through programs and get some decent diamonds. I'm just earning stubs and bought the players from the marketplace. If I earn enough I'll just buy them and bypass it all together.

@Easy_Duhz_It__PSN haha. Good one

I just did a run. got 3 straight 12 run showdowns (failed one). Failed 2 of 4 moments I think. Did not clear the map by any stretch, grabbed a few extra squares but mostly just headed to stadiums. First stadium I played veteran, just a pack. Second stadium I did all star and get Travis Bananaz. 3 packs, 2 bronzes, and an 87 for like an hour fifteen.
I did hit on a roll % in the 20s to get Bazzana, but given that you get two shots at the roll the odds are better than you would think.
Stadium games were both live series cleveland, I assume if it was schultz it would have been live series White Sox.

I finished the USA map. Didn’t realize I was the only person in the world last year to complete it. [censored].
-
Conquest is my go-to when the game starts. Especially this year when you want a easy way to get TA done.

That is one way to look at „Few people played the whole map“ … folks folks folks …

Just a heads up the showdowns do give you program progress at least. I just finished one and noticed it gave me stats towards the pipeline and TA guys I was using.

I don't understand why people hate conquest so much it's such a great way to get free...... packs and xp
-
@Doublevoltage_PSN Bc sitting there for hours pressing x on icons is boring af lol. Who cares about the packs.
-
Conquest is the reason I've been playing the game for 10 years. Diamond Quest is a horrible gambling time sink for the TikTok generation. How about "no" to all of that?

Huh?

@JDHalfrack_PSN You spend over an hour playing rapid fire random junk and then gamble on a single game as to whether you get anything or just wasted all of your time.

The “gamble” is to win a 3-inning rookie game against the CPU. That’s hardly a gamble…
I’ve maybe lost… 3… rookie games total the last 7 years…
-
@mietha_PSN What???
-
@Weshill627_PSN Conquest is literally the best mode in the game
-
Just in case anyone missed pergo_MLBTS comment, mini showdowns in Diamond Quest give program process.
I also noticed that pitchers get PXP for less than an inning pitched. Not sure if that's true for program points.
-
I played twice and ended up with 5 diamond (boss?) cards. which i sold for probably like 60k. super.

He's not lying, just get over the fact that we like conquest
