@DrBear100_PSN Glad I could help.

I got LS collection done doing the exchange.

@Onix_Savage22_PSN

It's more efficient. I am making more stubs now in less time it took me to flip bronze cards. Earlier on I earmed a temporary timeout for 12hrs doing bulk loads of bronzes. It's too perilous right now to do that kinda volume. It's also mind numbing. You just have to be in tuned to the silver and gold market. You need to have hard cutoffs when you buy silvers so you can maximize your profits.

I gotta give it up to @goozefn_psn for the advice for gold exchange packs. I exclusively do this now. It has cut my transactions down by two-thirds. I buy enough to get me to my daily stub goal. I set buy orders and don't touch them for 24 hours. I when I set my sell orders I let them sit for 24 hours then I adjust the price. Can't mistake me for bot doing that.

@DrBear100_PSN yup, packs mean nothing now. Kinda takes the fun out of things, but oh well. Black flag remake is coming out soon.

After I got the diamonds I needed I had a little fun bought three different packs. Got squat, wasted 100k worth stubs. Got that out of my system now onto legend collections

LS collection is as good as done

Bought every LS diamond I needed. Will probably 2nd Ohtani for investment purposes

The op thread title is "Just Delete The Game". Keep the game I say and "Just Lock Out This Thread".

I'm somewhat expecting the Triple XP + Double PxP weekend that they did from time to time last year, honestly. Especially the duration they listed in one of their FB posts (26th through July 1)

That would be amazing, but not holding my breath. Don't feel like dying for this game.

You'll eventually beat the bots just.need to wait it out. You'll eventually get your card at your price not theirs.

I guess I better nab Judge and Ramirez here pretty soon while they are still lower, have a feeling it's not gonna last. Glad I purchased Ohtani when I did, during the last flash sale.

@Ditka06-_MLBTS he gave the reason as this game was making him so mad it was affecting his personal life. Which it’s a video game, it shouldn’t be affecting your personal life no matter how much you love the game. We already get so many forums that are just not useful or important.

Unless he spent an ungodly amount of money on this game. Then I am damned sure it affected his personal life especially if by chance he patook of the exploit and got banned.

I have 600 hours...

The game was released on March 13. That's 101 days (not counting today, which is unplayable right now). That's averaging 6 hours a day. Your job must not be that time consuming/stressful/important if you're able to play 6 hours a day on average. I'm a teacher, and I have summers off. I feel like I play a LOT. Even then, I'm averaging about 2.83 hours a day... WITHOUT having a job during the summer.

I'm lucky to get 2 hours daily. Its probably more like 1-1 1/2 hours a day.

@DrBear100_PSN they will never shut down the app. The app doesnt exist to aid us as players. It exist so sds can farm and sell our data. Its all about squeezing every penny they can out of their customers.

Kinda paradoxical if you think about it. We as consumers are on the app farming stubs while SDS is farming our data but they can control how many stubs we are able to earn but we have little control on how much data they can earn. We'll, I am not sure what or how much data they are farming from us but I'm sure however much data (whether miniscule or a lot) they get from us is definitely worth more in real world dollars than the 5 million stub limit we have in the game

There is evidence that they are trying. Multiple people have said that they were incorrectly restricted from using the app due to suspicions that they were botting. These restrictions are going back almost to the first week or two of the games release.

I doubt there is an easy way to distinguish between bots and players who are really dedicated and good at flipping. I also assume that 3rd party stub sales know exactly how to create new accounts as soon as one of theirs gets restricted.

The only thing I have seen people talk about helping is when the App itself has been down. So if there is any switch to be thrown to resolve the vast majority of the botting issues then it would be shutting down the app.

As much as it would be a pain in my assets if they ever shut down the app, it would be a good thing in the long run for the stability of the marketplace and for honest players that have no malicious intentions, that are really good at flipping and treat it as another mode to this game.

Everyone saying the game isn’t having issue is lying. The servers are trash right now and it’s pure neglect on SDS. They have went from the best ultimate team game to a joke in 5 years.

Cool, now I am a liar.

I just logged in and did one of the summer moments, placed a sell order and called up my inventory. I then logged in to the app and check on my buy and sell orders there. Other than the initial menu load being a little slow things worked fine.

I never once said that nobody was having any issues. I just shared my experience tonight...

But why should anyone believe me? Apparently I am lying just to be contrary.

FWIW, I finished WBC miniseasons last night. The game was running super smooth except for the laggy menus. I was even some gold exchanges both on console and app with zero issues. The hours I was paying was between 9-11:30 and I am on a PS5.

I love trying new players or players I have never used, to find that diamond in the rough kinda guy. Tempo hitting isn't good for that. Using the same players over and over again is boring. That is why the switch hitting meta is starting to get really stale with me.

I am content with the content drop.... I've been grinding the WBC miniseasons like a mad man since they finally fixed the championship bundle. I am approximately little over halfway on the xp path, probably a little bit behind where I was at this time on the last xp path, but going to makeup ground this weekend. I for one am kinda excited for big conquest map, not a Zeto or Angels fan but it gives me something to chip away at when content gets a little slow.

@Bridge-Piece_XBL said:

@Dolenz_PSN I got flagged earlier in the year, and when they manually reviewed they unlocked me.

I'm a heavy flipper, and they told me flipping is totally fine. And by heavy flipper, I'm a heavy "passive" flipper. I put in a ton of orders at once, then sell them back in a few hours.

I just started to put in orders a little more slowly and mix up how many orders I do for each card. I've been fine since.

It's kind of disgusting that people resort to bots, cheats, and exploits in this game. These kids have 0 integrity and ruin things for everyone else.

I usually give a 2 or 3 count in between buying or selling to make sure I'm not to fast. I also do groups, in between each groups I wait an hour or two before the next. I was put into temporary timeout for like 12 hours earlier on so I did some research on decreasing my odds of getting caught up in a ban of any sort. I also limit the volume I do. I have a stub goal each day, once I hit that goal, I am done for the day. It's worked so far.
