<![CDATA[April Showcase]]>I think I will have to pass on being able to collect the weekly spotlight cards from now on.
The idea that monthly show case is practically exclusive to only multiplayer seems ridiculous to me.

So play everything else like mini seasons and conquest. Just multi olayer events for me are not worth paying for at all

Yeah, I'm not paying 20 to 30 dollars extra a month for one video game to be trolled and to have to deal with toxicity online. Yeah, no thanks. Not to mention, the servers are terrible, and the lag would drive me insane, and I have great internet. The servers just stink. I learned my lesson back in '23 with my nephew. In multiplayer, co-op, it was awful.

Events is fantastic, though - its the best part of the game this year, and people should be massively incentivized to play it.

There is nothing that is less of an incentive to play a mode that I don't enjoy then locking things behind a 30k pxp in one week grind.

It's moot with this one, but it shits me seeing comments like yours.

As an older player, I play strictly offline. I can accept that I won't have access to the best cards.
But it seems this year, offline players are being slighted in regards to content/xp.
Hoping for better balance going forward in the 3rd inning program.

Only 5 will be needed for the lightning.
They were quite clear on this during the stream
The 5 program cards is all you will need, the event is just a bonus.

This pure online stuff is a pita for them. I used to be one myself, so I empathize.

The collection still shows a 5 card collection, but it does only list 4 cards, so not sure exactly the plan. Best guess would be they release another Spotlight on the 5th that’s part of the collection?!?!?!

They said drop 5 is also on Tuesday so I assume there is another card to be earned the normal way

You should not need today's Events reward to get the lightning. Sure maybe the extra card and pack would help but I don't think that they are required
