So why you just don't wait couple of days until all casual players are in the game?
Of course now RS mode is full of streamers, big money spenders and so on... I'm about average online player and I'm not touching online until next week, when I have my team prepared

And let us save our lineup, please

Just opinion from average player... I'm about 50% winning in RS and I will never play about 80 games in a month and I think I'm now speaking for majority of average players like me

I agree with all of this. I am also in the group that believes that Diamond players should be extremely difficult to get. It would expand the life of the game. 99 kluber day one is silly. Same with 99 kershaw last year. I feel like 99 diamonds should be extremely rare.

And I could not agree less. If you want extremely rare 99 cards, go play Fifa, you will never have one there.
I love how friendly Diamond Dynasty is and I hope it will never change into so big money cash grab as EA's games.
True end game cards came when, two or three months ago? I think it's good timing, because you have a lot of time to enjoy them.
And if you have one 99 pitcher early, it doesn't matter so much now, cause you can't use him every game with that new energy system.

I'm pretty happy how affordable big cards are in DD

It would be so much better

I grinded a lot for 30 TA, 20 standard, 6 BIA and and 2 Headliners packs. First I packed Karinchak, nothing exciting but diamond is diamond, second diamond was Yelich, much better pull, but after that I pulled my first ever Headliner Salmon.
But from one of the BIA packs I packed my first ever Mike Trout . I couldn't believe it, when I saw these green lights. I'm not gonna sell him, I will use him for a very long time

I was looking forward for some content, but that one hit program and another 8 moments is all what we got for the weekend? It's lame

I agree, sometimes I turn volume up, some songs are really nice

I really miss Solo Battlees in DD. Because except of Conquest, there is nothing where you can use your team offline.
When you complete Conquest once, there is no point in playing it for second time. In Solo Battles you could get rewards weekly based on your skill and difficulty on what you played those games

Fix the 42 series packs where people are allowed to choose duplicates of the cards. They are not sellable or exchangeable. Sometimes you open the pack and they all say "new" even though you own some of the cards and they don't say "1x." There is no way to get 99 Jackie if you have duplicates of one of those cards. At the very least please automatically unlock every 42 pack card 9nce tall team affinities are at 100% sp at least we can get 99 jackie.

You can’t fix stupid

What an arrogant comment. He said clearly that sometimes these card options are bugged and it says "New", even when it's not true and you already have this card.
It happened to lot of people

You can use DD Cards to play CPU Offline 9 inning games.

Playing conquest is more than just the hidden rewards 1 time only.

Some like it b/c it is only 3 inning games. You can also use conquest as a tool for daily missions. 15 inning with dodgers players for instance._ put players from dodgers play 1 game and you have daily reward.

Or you can stack you team with specific player to work towards team affinity. The whole time earning xp and program points as well.

It is a strategy mode like Risk, which is one of the reasons why i would like to see dif starting points on US map.

Yes, of course, you can play vs cpu games, you can gain progress in TA, but what is the reward for this vs cpu game? It's 15 stubs, some xp and 1 card (bronze mainly). These rewards are ridiculous. In Solo Battles you can do everything you suggested, but you would be rewarded much better after one week of playing.

And how many Conquest maps we get in one inning? It's usually one, sometimes two and after that there is nothing. Maybe if SDS would do TA Conquests repeateble, there would be some point doing them twice.

All I'm asking is more offline content, where you can use your team and it would have some meaning. I like playing online, but I'm not in the right mood to play online every day

We need double servers weekend

This is nothing new. Whole cpu defense is supercharged from release date with these Superman leaps for outs

I think biggest problem in online play is incosistency in connection. I'm playing on monitor and when I played a lot online in MLB 21 I was able to destroy DeGrom on AS difficulty in one game, I saw everything perfectly and in the next game I wasn't able to see 95 fastball.

I still think, that console players should not be pushed into playing on monitor to see the ball in console game. Maybe it would be better if SDS would focus on making hitting harder not by pitch speeds, but making it more precise like making pci much smaller.

Or just give us some veteran difficulty RS with worse rewards. It would be much more fun for me

It's longest waiting for a new game I ever remember. I watch a lot of baseball, play SW Jedi Fallen Order and today I'm gonna play last RS game to see, if I'm gonna be able to achieve exactly 50% win ratio, currently I'm 37-38, but in 21 I plan to play a lot more games in RS.

And I will try not to watch DD stream for two reasons:

1. In Europe it starts at 00:00 a.m. and the game is playable from 6 a.m., so I will better take some sleep to be prepared
2. I don't want to spoil some surprises like how 1st Inning and XP paths are gonna look, how first conquest maps look, affinity paths, showdowns and so on and on... I want to discover that myself in the game

I am a console gamer, I refuse to play on monitor. To play before my tv is the main reason I have PS4. At least I bought new Samsung tv, which has some better gaming mode, but still not comparable with pc monitors. So playing on tv is still huge disadvantage.
I wish SDS could do something about it, cause The Show is console game

@the57deluxe_psn said in Post-game rewards:

There are still postgame rewards that come up after the postgame info where you see the progress tabs and see where your parallel levelling is. Even playing against CPU on rookie, I've actually already received a couple of diamonds like this this week. I know one was Jose Ramirez - can't remember the other one, Bauer or somebody like that.

You are talking either about something else or you want to lie for fun and it's not very funny.

There are no post-game rewards. We are still waiting, if someone from SDS will tell us, if they were removed or is it some kind of mistake. But no one receives rewards right now

And what about the servers? Aren't some issues related to how far you are from the server? I think there is some advantage for players living close to server

I'm impatient a and I think this is the worst launch of any sports game I can remember. This launch is very close to Cyberpunk 2077 in my opinion.
I'm not cursing SDS, I don't want my money back, I'm gonna play a lot this year. But I think they should be prepared much better, these issues are horrible.
Just imagine what if EA would give you such a product

As I said, I don't mind about it, events are still fun and I can get some wins here and there. But it's strange feeling to be like last small fish in the shark tank :-). I've last meeting with someone worse than me maybe month ago
