June countdown yikes

@rubicante23_PSN I like the content. I really like this miniseason, its so much better to have to play on harder difficulties than the collect player A, use player to unlock player B... that gets old. This is my favorite content drop so far this year. Jackie was cool too.
Plenty of people play both, I play the cpu on hall of fame with ease, ive played probably 50 mininseaosns, 20+ DQ, and every conquest. I also play online, im not great, but I make WS to get the rewards.
There are a bunch of old dudes on here that dont want to deal with all the shenanigans online. Truth is, I get it—online is fun 90% of the time, but that 10% is awful and makes even me never want to play again.
People forget that it used to be go 12-0 to get the card; make WS to get the card. Now the online rewards are all available on the market. That was done for the offline players.

@go4stros25_PSN there is no point in having a further discussion with them. They hate online. Is what it is. But they are definitely effecting us online players with all their complaining. Trying to keep them happy which they never will is taking away from us. Its already happened. With all the online programs they have removed. Now im getting bad at the game again cause I have to play countless hours offline.

@LadySwampfox_XBL online favoritism? This game has always catered to offline players way more than it did online.

It could have been so friggin easy….
Under where it says “2 sb in a multiplayer game”, add the following: “5 sb in conquest, DQ, vs CPU or miniseason game”
Under where it says “5k in a multiplayer game”, add the following: “10k in conquest, DQ, vs CPU, or miniseason game”
(I would add more, but I’ll NEVER see the rest of the missions BECAUSE I won’t be able to unlock them)
THEN EVERYONE IS FRIGGIN HAPPY !!!
How stinkin hard is it? Why are you doing this,SDS? WHY??? I mean, just send me a DM and say,”yeah, we don’t want you as a customer any longer”.

24k in a game is a funny one too
-
Unless SDS wakes up and changes the requirements for this program, I’ll be getting 30 points from it and NOWHERE near the 24k mission (wherever it is….)

@nymets1987_PSN arent you allowed to get those strikeouts vs the cpu?
-
@dfwrazorback_MLBTS like perhaps spend more time playing another game like I am now, with another game or two on the back burner. This year's game isn't only bad....it's REALLY BAD. The addition of mini season and pxp doesn't negate everything else bad about the game. The list is long and now even some of their supporters are starting to turn away. I miss the three or four hours a day or all day grinds on my days off but if sds is dead set on chasing me to other games....chase away!

I agree with that.
Online players get easier progress because it's online, offline requires more work because it's more casual. Should be like that for all programs. Yes, all programs. People who want to do offline only should be able to earn all cards, except maybe WS or WC cards (but we can get them via the market), and online should be able to get them all except maybe MS (but those should also be sellable).
-
@dfwrazorback_MLBTS This is kind of where I'm at. I'm not even mad anymore, I'm just finding it REALLY hard to care, at all. After being my most played game for the last decade, I can only be told "we don't want you" so many times before I finally listen.

Look at all the replies to this. Wow. Says it all. Kind of like a 'Countdown to extinction,' ala the Megadeth song 🤪

I didn't see the 24 K requirement. It's not that hard with the new strike zone. I think i got 23 or so, on Veteran this year. Let outs fall for hits, or don't throw to first on grounders. Remember. You need K's, not assists, lol. If it doesn't have to be done with one pitcher, just try a '6-3'er.' 6 innings with Topps Now Schlittler for most, for instance, then put in Miz to mow 'em down for the final 3. You can even do a '6-1-1-1,' but with relievers you can trust to get them flailing away, or catch 'em looking! Back-door slider those foows back to Memphis, or wherever they're from. It depends on the difficulty, of course. Just don't face LS Willi Castro, who is hard to strike out, lol. B*stard broke up a Perfecto bid of mine recently. -

Normally I would have been all over big Friday content but tonight I ended up playing FC 26 instead since they have been dropping some pretty good world cup related content. Yes, SDS drove me to play an EA game before we even got to the all star game.

Seems a little ridiculous it’s never even happened in a real life game before

You do realize this post reinforces the same point several offline players have been making for months, right? Why do you think you have to "play countless hours offline"? Non-sellable offline rewards are a mechanism SDS uses to encourage online play. How are offline players supposed to "just use stubs to buy the cards you want" (online player logic) when there is no access to stubs?
-
I’m with you, I think this is a cool drop
Maybe I’m in the minority but I like offline AND online games hah. Not sure why the two are so polarizing
-
I'm a full time career so I don't have time for online games hardly anytime for offline games and SDS wants to start pulling this bulls**t. Been a loyal customer since the 989 studio days but if this is the way there going this will most definitely be my last year buying there product.

I’ll probably only have the time to get Acuna I think. But the good news about this program is you can buy the cards if you don’t get them. The stubs and XP are nice and all but there’s a lot of XP this inning path + you can flip that many stubs relatively quickly.
I don’t love the short-timed nature of this program either but the fact that the rewards are sellable made me think “ehh it’s fine then.”

Plot twist: You won't. You'll just cry back complaining next year cause the season will be canceled!

Which is probably a good thing for MLB and also SDS
Gonna suck with no baseball next year
I’d love to sit in on an MLB union meeting

Just saw one of the hard missions: “Get five wins in BR”. Guess I’m not completing the program.
Was gonna grind it out this weekend, but seeing that it’s forcing us into BR? No thanks. Program started with such promise, and once again turns into a massive L.
