Wishlist for next year...The good, the bad, the ugly.
-
Since the DD content seems pretty much over, my thoughts/frustrations for the year.
FIrst what I thought was great:
Mini-seasons! I loved having so many types. Rewards felt worth it as well, maybe a little more "repeatable" ones (to be fair the last one has very good repeatables).Team Affinity. I loved the content mix of short term/long term grinding goals. I bit too sporadic, and it would have been nice to have more tie-ins with other programs or mini-seasons instead of "500exp" for every player.
The bad:
Conquest mode. Number of maps was great, the mode itself played like dog excrement. I know the tryhards out there would say Conquest games are easy, but you guys have your Veteran and over difficulties for that. Rookie games were just stupid grindy. WAY too many "Line drive-Caught" or "No problem here" after solid hits. Too many hard hit balls dying at the warning track. Lower the RNG for Rookie games or introduce a lower difficulty like you have for other modes. And get rid of the pitching where its constant nibbling. Just rage-quit inducing when it seems like every 2 out of 3 games comes down to the 4th inning hoping for 2 sac flies to win it. If the hitting was like Mini-seasons it would be so much better. I can take the same team that had to 4th Sac fly fest to win against a 96 OVR Mini-season team and get multiple HRs.The Ugly - March to October. Get a few packs if you play it, yay! It was my favorite mode last few seasons, I didn't even touch it this year. Please tie it back into Team Affinity.

I completely disagree with everything said here. Literally my take on everything flipped

I loved mini-season, also loved the conquest maps. would love if franchise could be tied into DD, Some of us love grinding out and playing a 162-game season and not simming everything. Briefly tried multiplayer. The lag made me stop, being paired with players who are as terrible as me would help. Two Suggestions. Make DD have the option of no DH, and have miniseasons have a nine-inning mode. Team Affinity was great this year, don't change a thing.
