I think a set called Rising Stars would have been better, it could have included guys that are already establishing themselves, but still have ceiling, like Alvarez, McNeil, Jimenez, K Tucker, Urias, just to name a few.
Yeah, I would love this since Prospects and Future Stars is basically the same set of players.
I mean, I could probably make an easy pick for each team, too:
Angels - David Fletcher or Griffin Canning
Astros - Yordan Alvarez or Josh James
Athletics - Ramon Laureano or Frankie Montas
Blue Jays - Lourdes Gurriel, Bo Bichette, or Cavan Biggio
Braves - Mike Soroka or Dansby Swanson
Brewers - Keston Hiura or Brandon Woodruff
Cardinals - Tommy Edman or Giovanny Gallegos
Cubs Willson Contreras or David Bote
Diamondbacks - Zac Gallen or Tim Locastro
Dodgers - Will Smith or Julio Urias
Giants - Mike Yastrzemski or Dereck Rodriguez
Indians - Oscar Mercado, Shane Bieber, or Mike Clevinger
Mariners - Mitch Haniger or Yusei Kikuchi
Marlins - Caleb Smith or Miguel Rojas
Mets - Seth Lugo or J.D. Davis
Nationals - Victor Robles or Trea Turner
Orioles - John Means or Hanser Alberto
Padres - Chris Paddack or Emilio Pagan
Phillies - Scott Kingery or Zack Wheeler
Pirates - Bryan Reynolds, Kevin Newman, Jameson Taillon
Rangers - Willie Calhoun or Jose Leclerc
Rays - Brandon Lowe, Tyler Glasnow, or Nick Anderson
Red Sox - Andrew Benintendi or Eduardo Rodriguez
Reds - Luis Castillo or Nick Senzel
Rockies - David Dahl or Jon Gray
Royals - Hunter Dozier or Jorge Soler
Tigers - Spencer Turnbull or Joe Jimenez
Twins Jose Berrios, Max Kepler, Jorge Polanco, or Taylor Rogers
White Sox - Lucas Giolito, Tim Anderson, or Eloy Jimenez
Yankees - Luis Severino or Gio UrshelaIf they dropped diamond versions of those players I would be thrilled. That would be so much better than repeat prospects.

Why would you be thrilled, they are still not going to be able to field? Lol

Thrilled content wise. Again, two separate things.

Content is pointless when the gameplay is this bad. You could put God in center field and he still wouldn't be able to catch a routine fly ball.
What a waste of content. I'm glad you're happy with style over substance.

I suggest you come to terms with it at some point. I’ve seen very little improvement in two years so I choose to enjoy the content instead of being disappointed patch after patch year after year.

I’m one of the few that’s happy about this actually. I have a full squad of basically prospects and the FOTF FS (Moncada, Albies) it’s kept things interesting for me. I’d be tired of the same old LS cards by now and same old legend cards.
I’ve welcomed this change.
Exactly. I don’t understand why people are upset about usable new cards. I for one don’t really feel like using the same players I’ve been using for the last 3 years. Id rather use a card and get excited about watching the dude next year than use another card of a guy I never saw play and never will.
Because we were led to believe that the diamond prospects were the best cards those players were going to get, especially because there’s a whole collection. Now we get new versions of the same players within like a month for no reason? It’s lazy and scummy, and many people would prefer actual real flashbacks.
I would prefer a fielding fix, but hey heres a new card to appease us.
whispers "Maybe they won't notice the game breaking fielding bugs if we release these cool looking cards"
-
Im not a fan of these Future Stars cards coming out cuz theyre just "made up".... I get it, its Fantasy Baseball-ish anyways but we're guessing they're going to be as good as Trout, Bellinger and DeGrom? Based on what?...
Atleast with Legends, you can look back and justify their ratings.. LS has the 3 yr range...But Future Stars. .. meh. Let's just make them all 85+ lol

Because the content team and the gameplay team arent one and the same. If the content team completely stops doing their job it wont speed up a gameplay patch one single second.

So, a very small development team wouldn't help each other out, is that what you are saying? Only one or two of them can code, is that what you are saying?
What are you saying? They aren't a development team? They don't work together? Lol, how big do you think they are that they don't multitask? I know guys like Victior and others are gameplay testers, but I think you may find that quite a few of them work across "content" and "game development" at the same time.

For me the issue is how the FOTF makes you believe that Stage 2 will be players as good or better that Stage 1. I spent a ton of time and stubs getting all these Stage 1 entries to 70/70 to find out that Future Stars (basically prospects) are the next entry.
They could have dropped throwback Future Stars/Rookies of some really good old school players. I just think transparency would have been cool here given that a prospect set already existed. Now, if these Future Stars drop and we get powered up guys like Elroy Jimenez, Bo Bichette and others, that would be kind of cool. Just as long as the grind for these cards isn't so ridiculous that I can't complete them while also getting ranked seasons and events done too.

Tell yourself what you want to hear and be angry at the wrong people. I can assure you sds is aware of the issues and doing everything they can to fix it as fast as they can.

That's the risk that comes with the unknown. And these future star reveals are awesome players. Chicago has a 91 overall SP as their Stage 2!
Also keep in mind there are other unlocks along the way... Plus this is only Stage 2, there's also 3 and 4 and you are very well setup fir when those come out and I'm sure those will be some really top notch cards.
