I haven't even paid much attention to this upcoming one. Usually I'll invest in couple players but it's not worth the time or hassle for a nerfed gain.

@SpawnOfDitka_XBL idk dude I’m an online player myself but when a good stub making method comes out I’ll do it did 3 runs yesterday. More time consuming and less profitable then last year unless u pull red roch but still a rly good method.

I agree. Up until now what mode is a better stub maker? Onliner complaining about offline modes. He's kind of a paradox.

Draft content is live

Conquest map has the repeatable draft choice pack, you get 3 picks each time you complete the map. This was huge last year, happy to see it back.

Heck ya! Freaking SDS coming through in a huge way with the content drop. There is still hope!

@manu__sds_mlbts

Think one will happen today?

@DrBear100_PSN It's a trap!

Typically yes that is true but in this instance I came out ahead. Next time probably won't. I've spent less than $40 on microtranactions on this game. Will only spend real money if there is potential for real value. In this case with 2 packs and 20k in stubs you already broke even if go by how much 25k in stubs go for, but there is a really good shot to come out ahead with this bundle.

I bought it for the heck of it. Got Judge from the LS pack..Immediately sold him. That will help my collection push. Definitely worth the $30 bucks. Now I can say I am almost nms.

Here is the Collection

Dang, there is everyone's Yordan. This seems to be an amazing drop, fun times are ahead especially with 1 million stubs in my reserves.

Correction: fun times are ahead as long as the servers don't implode or explode which ever would be the case.

Howdy,

I am hoping that the "account restricted" bug has just been addressed!

You tha man!

@Dolenz_PSN said:

Posted on MLB instead of The Shows account so I missed it. It should be fun to see how people complain about this.

I have to have both of those!

@PittsburghPAVS_XBL -- First off, sorry to hear about the medical issues. Hope you recover as quickly and comfortably as possible.

I just want to point out that @manu__sds_mlbts in particular is working very hard every day to get things where they need to be, so please cut him a break. His task is not an easy one, and he's going above and beyond in ways that you all can't necessarily see. Just want you to know that.

Again, sending my best wishes to you.

Just by his constant communication is going way above and beyond. I can definitely tell the bro cares. Let's give @manu__sds_mlbts some space to work.

The issue would be that the bot makers would then know how to program them to get around the restriction.

This is a big thing we have to consider here too, and it can make being as transparent as we'd like to be very tricky, just for the record.

Something good to keep in mind as we all work together to try and find the right balance.

I wouldn't mind the random cool down times so much as long as I know I can get a consistent number (whatever that is )of buy/sell orders in each time.

@PsylockeSmythe_XBL said:

@Gary-Hoggatt_PSN Trust me I understand.

It is just as I see it and I've posted the same thing in other threads, is that: a) they keep the app and remove the restrictions and the bots run the market, b) they keep the app, put transaction limits like now (4 transactions every few minutes), which makes things harder for the bots (won't remove then completely), but slows down everyone or c) remove the market from the app and website and make all market transactions have to be done via the console.

None of the above choices are great and each one has a major drawback that part of the player base will complain about being unfair or wrong, if it happens.

We are seeing it now. First, it was complaining that the bots are ruining the market and people can't place orders because the bots have taken over. Now it is people upset with the timeouts that do help control the bots, since they can't adjust or place unlimited orders in a short amount of time.

Just image what would happen if they make the market console only.

Psy

The restrictions are okay as long as there is a consistent cool down time and consistent nimber of orders that can be placed. What bothers me is that you can get 5 sell orders in cool down for 30 seconds and afterwards you can get only 2 and then have to wait 2 minutes and then you can do 4 more and a have to wait a minute. There is no consistency. Maybe that has to be done by design. I think if there could be more consistency to where us honest humans can get used to then I think these complaints will go away....mostly.... at least 75% of the complaints.

@TheRealJSpit_PSN said:

From what I could tell, there were no restrictions this morning. I tried it with a low tier card, both posting a bunch and refreshing in the app.

Yeah, there are restrictions, trying selling. For some reason it's more restrictive to sell then it is to buy. Quick selling slightly faster than listing, listing sell orders is like driving a red hot nail through your eyeball.

@Manu__SDS_MLBTS

Thank you for the amazing communication as always. I can definitely tell you do care.

I have an android, unfortunately. My company provides it for me so I can't complain too much.

Yes, I am still getting restrictions. Putting in buy orders , I can do 5 before a 30-45 second cooldown, I timed it. Like I said, not a bad middle ground for restrictions. But, sell orders, when I am selling off gold dupes from doing silver exchanges I can get 2 or 3 and then a cooldown. That cooldown is very random, anywhere from 30 seconds to couple minutes, it's needles in my eyeballs painful.

Even though I want to give them a chance because of the great communication, I still have my doubts that any of this will work because of how adaptive people are with these scripts. It slows them down for few days and then they are back at it but then we are the ones restricted but the bots aren't. It's a game of whack a mole and it seems as if the honest players are the ones getting wacked. Let's give them some time to refine the restrictions before we get our pitchforks and blowtorches out. I gotta think the restrictions are here to stay.

Alright, we don't need gazillion threads about the same topic. Please stop this nonsense and post your comment in the above thread which was created specifically for this topic.

Oh my card flip app is working, maybe play the freaking game

Khem, you can definitely play the game without flipping, but I have one question if you don't mind answering for me...... does it make a whole lot of sense to flip and not play the game? Hint It’s a rhetorical question.

Hey kiddo I don't flip lol. NMS just playing and don't ever worry since I've always completed everything without having too

I appreciate the compliment, calling me a kiddo. Let me ask you another question how do I know that you are not a kiddo? I assume not but you know what happens when we assume though, right?

That is my whole issue with these restrictions, if they actually worked consistently day in and day out, I would be okay with them but instead the restrictions are not working consistently. It's treating honestly people who flip as if they are bots without consistently taking out the bots. The ends do not justify the means. @manu__sds_mlbts

@DrBear100_PSN at this point I’d rather them take out the restriction and just have us fight against the bots it’s better then refreshing a card 3 times and getting restricted and having to close app and have the same thing happen over and over again

Quite honestly, they do have to do something about the bots.

I correct myself from my previous post. It's 5 then a 30 second cooldown. That's a pretty good middle ground if these restrictions work.

Sorry @manu__sds_mlbts carry on bro. I hope these work, I'll stay off your back for know
