Agree. I think the way to fix the Prestige Diamonds would be to allow offline, but require more innings for offline play, maybe even double....it SHOULD be hard to do offline I agree

It's McGwire.
Big Mac. The Chase for HR in a season.
Meh.
McGwire is too one dimensional for this kind of collection reward. Outside of power, what else does he have to offer? Ruth would have more, or at the very least equal power, but Ruth would have max contact, vision, etc. And his speed, defense, etc. would be better than Mac’s too.
Big Mac would have been a perfect home run derby kind of collection reward because it was solely about power. He won the ‘92 derby and that collection would’ve been more suited to be his release.
You might feel different if the collection also includes Sosa and Maris.....I'll be pretty excited if that the case. With the ESPN Documentary "Long Gone Summer" about this chase 2 months ago, it makes sense. Also, pairing Mantle with Maris, and their historic chase of the Babe back in 1961. What if.....it was ALL of them? Including the Babe??? Hmmm.....
P.S. If the Babe were to be in it too, perhaps it would be an award card from his 1927 Season, so that they could still release his Sig Later.....so you'd be "chasing" Babe at 60, Maris at 61, Sosa at 66 and McGwire at 70. Heck, if they did this, they could do a Collect ALL to get Reggie Stocker! LOL!!!!!

Two Words......"Shark Week." Get ready for a lot of Conquest Packs
-
Man, I pulled Verlander out of the 2 FREE Headliners packs.....could not believe it. Enough to finish the last two HRD cards I needed for Trout. Only second 90+ Live Diamond I've pulled all year.....
-
Not sure if he's the best....but I sure like switch hitter 96 Matt Wieters...very underrated and best D.
-
People...(including myself)...might actually end up doing some work now in the office today! Oh No!
-
My biggest issue with TA is that last year, you could get 45 points for just collecting cards. Maybe that was a little too easy, but this year, IF you dont do showdown....it will just take forever. There should be more moments that can contribute toward affinity, and its just hilarious to me that you can only get 10 points for collecting a team set, but you then get all of the TA pack awards that are worthless cause they are locked.
-
More Moments would be nice for these......but I am not for lowering this total at all. I was able to from 70 to 120 on 18 teams over the past week with no problem, and pulled several Diamond from the packs I got in the process. Probably cost 10-15K on average I think (well worth it for the quality of these prospect cards. They need to make it some what difficult.....otherwise everyone would do it in 5 minutes....
-
This is gonna sound Like I'm flexing here....if so sorry. I play mostly offline, so these TA's have been my primary targets....I just finished the last three this morning..
FOTF "stage 1" - I have 30 of the 30
Future stars - 30 of 30
FOTF "stage 2" - 30 of 30Just waiting on the Fall Stuff now.....
-
Loving the game right now, especially loved the Ruth Program and offline grind! Will continue playing heavily until March 2021....
-
you know, with 20-30k.....2b Rod Carew Sig is dirt cheap right now. He is incredible for the price. Maybe consider a platoon of Carew at 2b vs RH with Biggio at C, than Posey vs LH at catcher with Biggio at 2b,

@collin_sds_psn said in Server Update (10/9):
We've identified the issue and are working on a fix now. Unfortunately this fix will require extended maintenance, and the servers will remain offline until it is deployed. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. Thanks for your continued patience. Updates to follow.
Due to today's extended maintenance today's Exhibition Tournament is cancelled.
@collin_sds_psn can you please send a push notification on the app whenever the server go live again?

I dunno......based on the Video, looks like this map actually blows the content in the Shark Map away. If it had been released at the same time, this map would be legendary as well.....its just too bad a map like this was released so late in the game cycle.....obviously it is more for new players to the game from the Holidays.....I'll take it though.....thanks SDS!!!
-
I agree with you, however, the majority of players who play The Show are online players, so that do need to cater to them a bit more. That said, as a completely offline player too, it seems reasonable to incorporate more optional stat missions into the programs next year. Agree with Ferris that is makes you use more cards you may not use otherwise. I actually did the 75 HR with AS cards last week, and had so much fun using AS A-Gone, Chris Davis, Jose Bautista and AS Joey Gallo again! Need more of these like with Rookies, Impact Vets, and Breakout cards!
-
@Collin_SDS @Victor_SDS I am usually not a complainer at all....but this is ridiculous. Absolutely ZERO reason for this to have changed base running. With all of the other issues you are having, please stop these ridiculous tweaks and just go back to the game the way it was released..
-
Do the exchanges for the Angles and Rays Team affinities to get Snell and Ohtani to replace Maddux and Glavine who could be sold, then Go get FREE Amir Garrett for your bullpen.
-
This is no disrespect to Mr Dunning.....but.....Dane Dunning is already 25 years old, missed all of last season because of Tommy John Surgery....never pitched above AA....and he gets a 91 card?? C'mon.....
-
Once you get past the 88 Card, its all pretty easy......and I did them before they made the early moments even easier....yes it is 100% worth it, and the equipment for your CAP is great as well, if you use a CAP
