Let us pick the difficulty and scale the rewards, just like with March to October.

If you want to play the NL East showdown on Rookie go for it, but you’ll only get 1 voucher as your final reward.

Instead of 70 program stars for the Inning Program you get 50 if you play on the easiest difficulty and let it scale up from there.

You can still play and enjoy the mode but you get to pick how difficult you want it to be and the higher you choose the better the rewards. They do this for M2O I don’t see why they couldn’t do it for Showdown

Why in the world does your inventory still reset to the top card every time you check the market on a player? Imagine doing the FA collection and having to scroll to where you were every single time you look at a card.

Who gives a cra.p if I want to use it against the CPU, it literally punishes you if you guess wrong by making your PCI smaller, that alone is worth it for offline play.

I can understand for online against a real person but against the CPU? Come on this is some BS.

According to the patch notes they've released for tomorrow, they are removing it from DD.

It's just like the [censored] SDS pulled with Moments last year(and probably this year who knows yet), the difficulty may say 1 thing but the hidden sliders are heavily adjusted to make it harder.

I wouldn't have a problem if a moment said HOF and it was actually that, but don't tell me it's Rookie and have it be completely different from every other game mode you play on Rookie.

At least you can try to upgrade them. I'm an offline only DD player so by making all the missions online only when I get Helton SDS basically told me to kick rocks.

@yankblan said in Sooo are porgram points supposed to be harder to get this year???:

1st Inning Showdown is only 500, not 1000. You get that back after first miniboss. Can’t speak for TA Showdowns, but 1st Inning is not that tough. Barely missed on first attempt and easily sailed on the second one. Pick one diamond SP, a good CP and rest only boppers. Only take perks that boost contact after 2 strikes and when losing, or behind in the count. Drain the P by taking as many pitches as you can. You should get that 70 pts fairly easy.

It doesn't make a difference when they give the final showdown boss BS abilities, just tried the 1st inning showdown and was doing fine(went into the final showdown down 15-10) when all of a sudden not even Mike Trout could hit a HR off Oswalt on a perfect/perfect high fastball because they gave Oswalt HR stopper but only for that part, he doesn't have it any of the other times you face him. Only scored 2 runs because every single long fly ball would die right at the warning track, every. single. one.

Plus they upped the difficulty of the final showdown boss from Veteran to All-Star meaning not only is hitting broken but they made it harder.

Great, so offline is still trash. Tremendous work everyone.
