20 Card Max
-
Greedy by SDS. Going to be impossible to actually complete live series collection this year. Going to kill the game before it even starts. I wouldn’t have preordered if I knew they were pulling this.
I completed the LS Collection and every other collection in 25 and I didnt invest in one single card. Nor did I purchase stubs.
I just didnt get them done right away.
-
You forget we bought this product right? Its no different then you buying a car and it having a [censored] up engine and not being told about it. Qould you still buy the car. The fact of the matter is sds didnt disclose anything
-
@yankblan_PSN "I’m just enjoying people losing their minds over something they could completely get rid of (market) and have the same game be as fun." Same game be as fun.......... "for you". That is what a narcissist can never see.
-
This is a terrible change to the game that has made me reconsider if I even want to purchase it. No way a cap of 20 cards should exist. Maybe scaled like 250 common/bronze, 150 silver, 100 gold and 50 diamond.
I may refund the game
-
@yankblan_PSN In all seriousness, that's not how this will play out. Anyone with experience with EA games knows that once the investment options end, the economy inflates, and pay to win becomes the only viable option. It doesn't even impact me since I don't play H2H, yet I still know this is pure greed.
To a larger point, download the app, load MLB The Show 25, set a buy order for one of the Kyles (Schwarber or Tucker). Then, once you buy it at the low price, set a sell order for the high price. With virtually no effort, you'll make tons of Stubs. SDS is removing this from the game solely to sell more packs.
Don't miss the forest for the trees here. They're intentionally making the game worse solely for greed.
-
This actually a very underhanded scummy way to try and force players to buy Stubs.
With no No explanation and no reasoning given, it feels even worse. Like I’ve been tricked.
-
@DonJuanRon_XBL Yeah, that's the thing. I bought like $150 worth of Stubs last year. Now, I won't do that last year and may refund the game. That's a tangible loss, and if enough people take a stand, it'll add up, just as with Destiny 2.
-
That’s not real is it I mean this is what sets this game apart unless they don’t make any money which doesn’t make sense. It’s just as bad as only being able to sell 20 cards at a time on madden. Honestly it makes the game not as fun for me.
* -
@DonJuanRon_XBL it’s really not though.
-
@BalsamicArrow88_XBL great point
-
@BrthrDarkness_PSN That analogy doesn’t fit. Flipping/investing in cards is not the “engine” of this game. Might be equivalent to a car not having a sunroof or something stupid like that.
-
this a thread about a wall street sim that was deceptively sold to loyal wall street simmers.
Yeah....SDS definitely misled the people by advertising and subsequently selling a baseball game. They probably should've just sold MLB The Stock Market to con more baseball fans.
-
@Easy_Duhz_It__PSN They knew we would not buy the game if they told us. So they decided to not tell us. And you defend them and attack the people they are doing it to? What type of person are you?
-
Some people really take this flipping card thing seriously. Relax Jordan Belfort’s it’s just a baseball video game, not Wall Street. Maybe go take some quaaludes and really invest some money in the stock market if you love it so much.
-
@BalsamicArrow88_XBL genius, this IS a "Wall Street sim game" thread. Are you really that dense?
-
@Easy_Duhz_It__PSN They knew we would not buy the game if they told us. So they decided to not tell us. And you defend them and attack the people they are doing it to? What type of person are you?
I'm the type of person that buys a baseball game to play baseball and not try to manipulate the market by buying hundreds of cards and overinflating prices. Crazy, right? Who buys baseball games to just play baseball?
-
@BalsamicArrow88_XBL a wall street sim game with a loyal customer base of wall street simmers. Who were purposely mislead into purchasing the game they have known year over year to be the best wall street sim game around. They knew they were going to kill it, they knew if they told us we would not buy the product. So they purposely didn't tell us. And you are here defending them. Sad.
-
@GoozeFn_PSN I’m totally in agreement. This is such a money grab and COMPLETELY destroys the fun for me. I’m really upset.
-
@Easy_Duhz_It__PSN you literally have no idea how it works if you think it is manipulation. They made this change and what do you know, they didn’t up the odds of drops so we have the exact same 500k Shohei we had last year!
-
@Easy_Duhz_It__PSN also the type of person who goes to a wall street sim game thread and preaches about baseball and you tell everyone in the wall street sim game thread how they are allowed to think and feel. Or it seems that way at least.
