Showdown
-
@GoozeFn_PSN said in Showdown:
@Jay_Kimber_PSN or like it was for several years, it could just be an optional way to get progress in programs.
This. More than says to finish a program = better experience for all.
-
The best use of showdown was the TA ones. 100% optional. You don't have to run miniseasons, or grind with specific players, just keep repeating showdown.
Its the no sell cards, or when they require on for a program, where it becomes an issue.
-
I love showdowns. I'm being bored and installing all the MLB the shows and playing the showdowns in everyone just for Poops and Giggles. MLB 21...i miss that feeling.
-
They shouldn't put 99s or even cards in general behind Diamond Quest. They should put choice packs or something, not cards whose prices inflate through the roof because nobody wants to play the mode and even then, it's not a guarantee (far from it) to get the card.
-
@TheBigPapa55_PSN Diamond Quest cards are sellable, so I don’t get this complaint.
-
@GoozeFn_PSN
Yeah but at insanely high prices. I get this is a good way to make stubs if you enjoy grinding for a chance at getting these cards, but for those who want to buy cards like the Lee Smith, Eddie Murray, or Josh Bell, you're going to have to break the bank if you don't want to sacrifice time and brain cells to grind for them via a slow-[censored] mode of chance. -
@TheBigPapa55_PSN Maybe at this point in the season when no one is playing. Go play it or buy it. I understand the complaints about no sell cards in certain modes, but come on…
-
I don't like Diamond Quest but I essentially just traded Jason Varitek for Randy Johnson
Also the Yankee team in that one is hilarious. Got the 90s guys like Posada, Bernie, Jeter...the legends like Ruth, Gehrig, Mantle...oh and Ryan McMahon.
Those 3 inning 2 XBH moments are a double edge sword. Less RNG reliant than short moments but the showdowns are absolutely faster than a lot of the moments
-
I’ll add to what others have said: I hate Showdown, and, if up to me, it would be removed.
Having said that, if SDS wants to have it in the game, make it optional. And do not ever put cards in it that you can’t get any other way.
-
@capardo_XBL I’m onboard with making them optional and not having no sell cards as rewards, but I’ll never understand people wanting modes removed simply because they don’t like them or more likely aren’t good enough to beat them.
