Yeah that Arenado WBC card played better than most Arenados of yore. Was very surprised to see him as an end goal for one of the WBC A or whatever it was.
-
Haven’t looked at the mini-seasons yet but can’t you just buy him or are all Mini-seasons cards un-sellable?
-
There went play however you want to. Only can get Nimmo is you play it on a level you might detest. They really are constantly going back on what they promise before the game releases. Allstar requirement to win a card on a mode that constantly disconnects. Interesting logic
-
5 cards from the program
1 card from the event
3 cards from miniseason
3 cards from collecting cards
12 total from playing14 cards in the pack

Dont think they are sellable
Probably just the biggest fluke I have seen in quite some time, but CPU put up 9 runs in 2 3 inning games against me, with no HRs. I see them score 4 runs in a game once a year and they just did 5 then 4...
-
The card art is much better this year
-
I’ve never had a problem in All-Star. Hitting at times, but pitching is the same in all game modes against CPU
FB up and in, FB up and in, low outside offspeed. Rinse repeat.
It’s a testament to how to pitch to CPU in every game mode since like MLB 20. There’s no real AI there.
In all star and above just take more pitches, eventually you’ll hit a HR.
Then do that required amount of all-star wins.

Honestly the cards chosen for this drop were basically what AI would have probably predicted.
I think we have all the big names not already in WBC/St Patrick's Day
We also have The Show "favorites" like Mullins and CastellanosA couple minor guys liek McNeil and Adolis tossed in
The miniseason saves the drop
However, while the wins on all star arent really an issue for me and Im not good, I think its a terrible direction to go down. If someone wants to earn Nimmo on rookie, let them. Even if it takes twice as long.
Agreed. They could have branched outside their small minded beehive and explored some previous year new thread candidates that changed teams in the offseason.

I’m probably just gonna speed run event program unless I’m missing smt seems to be the only part with high stub upside
-
Probably follow it with mini season but even if it’s stubs I’m looking for I feel like wbc mini season is much more worth my time

Thats why I was stunned when it happened. Next three games were back to normal, one run across the three of them
I use pulse though, which leaves pitches over the plate with pretty high frequency but it seems they never hit those (unless a hanging circle change) but will every once in a while no doubt a dotted fastball with a common.
-
I know what you mean. Some games even on rookie it does appear the computer has “ showdown” sliders and will go rogue. Foul off 11 pitches in a row, like they’re destined to win.
They do seemingly do that more in mini-seasons because I feel like because sometimes that maybe if you’re facing a high OVR team like The whales - It uses their aggression or some other hidden stats against your crappy pitchers.
But for the most part Tulo 99 red diamond AI guy will strike out like a 66 ovr with the pitching sequence above.

@LuvMyXBOX_XBL I can’t tell if this is rage bait content wise I can see gameplay and server wise definitely not
-

-
@LuvMyXBOX_XBL I can’t tell if this is rage bait content wise I can see gameplay and server wise definitely not
To be fair, didnt 21 have worse server issues than 26, beyond just launch?
This content is better than the 21 launch content though.
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS I can’t remember that far back tbh memory is shot
but yeah all jokes aside this years content has been amazing server issues aside -
@LuvMyXBOX_XBL I can’t tell if this is rage bait content wise I can see gameplay and server wise definitely not
No joke. maybe take the blinders off.
-
@LuvMyXBOX_XBL ok so this confirms this kids looking for rage bait cause i literally agree with him just say the servers are bad and he proceeds to call me blind
