    It’s truly just a joke now that you get between 2K - 2.5k for about 30 minutes of your time playing the CPU (if you have a good offensive game). These game developers are doing everything they can to milk money out of you, while at the same time running away their most loyal players. I’ve literally spent thousands of dollars on this game over the years, but I refuse to spend another dime. I went against my better judgement the last couple years when I was saying I’d never fall for it again, but I definitely won’t do it again going forward. SDS has completely flipped their scripts. I feel like it’s because of the mobile game. The people calling the shots are ridiculous now apparently.

    I just dont understand people complaining about how hard it is to get the boss. Just play the game and you'll get it.

    This the classic, egotistical 'i don't have the issue therefore no issue exists' toxicity that is rife within this game.

    I've finished the path this season, but i'm not so conceited that I assume that because I have finished it, everyone should be able to.

    @NotesOfJohn_PSN this is probably the easiest it’s been all year. He isn’t being egotistical by stating that.

    I don't know why people seem to be having so much trouble finishing innings this year. Inning 2 is the only one where I didn't reach the bosses, but I also took a break and played other games for a few weeks and even then I still only fell about 20k short. For this inning, I just hit 400k today.

    380K

    I was at about the same point last season but thankfully they moved it to 400K

    Remember the days when the boss was at 250K?

    @ApolloZ_99_MLBTS He's, repeatedly, saying it's not an issue when it actually is for many.
    Effectively saying as issue doesn't exist because you don't experience it is the height of arrogance.

    It all comes back to his misguided view that online players > offline.

    @NotesOfJohn_PSN I mean you can be an offline player if you want to but it doesn’t change the fact that this inning was easier to finish. Again this is only for this inning in particular. There are still a little less than 2 weeks left and it appears a good portion is already finished or close enough.

    I've kinda given upon the reward path....2k xp for a 9 inning game for a one month program which isn't even a whole one percent of the end goal....it just isn't worth it, it just isn't. They want you to play nonstop and I think with the decline xp over the last few years they will chase people away. It's like they promote so much pre game and drop the ball after release. And goals of 5k here and there just don't make up for it. With the repeated conquest atleast make a repeatable 5k goal upon completion of the maps

    I am just shy of the inning boss but I've had to play for about 6 hours a day. I'm admittedly not very good and I don't like playing online due to playing on the Nintendo Switch. I was really excited to get the game this year but I'm getting burnt out try to do all the grind. I'm tempted to just go back to playing Road To The Show like I used to do.

    You have to efficiently grind too. Last week, people should've been doing nothing but playing Moonshot event. Because its by far the easiest way you're ever gonna get to fly through multiplayer path. Even if youre not mostly an online player (which Im not either, BTW), it didnt take much playing to get the whole multiplayer path done. And you should've noticed that there wouldn't be an event this week too.

    My problem is that we talk about people wanting long grinds that take effort. But then, way more people complain whenever there's any....long grind that takes some effort...

    Not singling you out….

    Most of us offliners don’t mind a long grind. What we are asking for is to ensure that there is MORE than enough XP to finish an inning by staying completely offline.

    That has NOT been the case so far this year.

    While I haven't played much this inning it seems better balanced. I feel like the online stuff is optional this time around, when it realistically wasn't last inning.

    I also don't think it will be like last year where you could comfortably take two weeks off and still finish the path. Therefore I wont finish and unlike inning 2 that's ok.

    Still an absolutely terrible version of a battle pass though.

    @DeleteyourTTVBTW_MLBTS as usual, Im confused by your post - the people who DONT want to play conquest and mini seasons are not the ones having XP problems. It’s the mostly-offline people having xp issues.

    Obviously it confuses you, it’s common sense and easy to see both online and offline each have nearly the same XP locked behind them each inning. It’s almost like it designed that way. BOTH sets of players are forced to play modes they don’t want. One just cries a lot more than the other, probably because offline has been forced on online players for years in every single program and offline players are having it for the first time since 2017.

    This is just another weird “hehe I did it they can’t now imma make myself feel good about playing 7 hours a day instead feeling pathetic” post that isn’t out of the ordinary for this place. How many hours deep are we? Because I’m willing to bet you are still averaging a part time job everyday just for you to say it’s “easy”?

    @DeleteyourTTVBTW_MLBTS id say its way more common to read an "its too hard! How does anyone do it? Please make it easier!" post. So, which one is right? You're welcome to your opinion. I dont actually know your opinion, because you usually just say something mean and personal that has no relevance. (if it matters, I suspect my salary is much higher than yours. Does it matter?)

    Im not a huge defender of SDS on this forum - so ain't like Im here patting them on the back
