I might be in the minority here but I love the changes they made to TA, it got so tiring facing the same cards over and over again last year, also the best pitcher in the game was free, it devalued so many high tier reward cards, also love the inning's for ranked seasons rewards. Rewards the grinders, I love it, i wont love that with my job it will be hard to obtain, but i'm all for it, gives me incentive to play when ever I can. Plus the game feels great.

if someone quits you're getting a free win lol. Plus you get to save pitchers

last time I bought Orel it didnt go to well for me... I would much rather earn Orel, thats the best way to get Orel.

its time for CAPS to leave online play. If you're a person that complains about future stars, but uses a CAP then you are a hypocrite.

@frizbgirl22 said in Showdown is rigged: episode 100:

Y’all just don’t see it? The game tried to get me to lose. It knew I was 5 runs away from Lorenzo Cain and it thought it could game the system by not throwing me a strike and having me chase. I’m lucky I went downstairs for a drink and forgot I left showdown running or I would have lost. Shady business by SDS. Smh

Look at these fanboys smh

This guy gotta be trolling

if you only casually (once every couple of days) don't expect to finish programs, regardless of the servers, the programs have and always will be meant for the grind. You can't just play every couple days, not grind and expect to be rewarded.

-Freezes
-Pitcher Stamina
-Servers ( can go with freezes)
-Pinpoint pitching (its far to easy, its unreal how easy it is to dot every sing pitch)
-Outlier (needs a revamp, no pitcher is throwing 102 for 50 plus pitches a game)

• H/9 Starters shouldnt be above 115. 115 should be max h/9 for a starter, it balances out other starters throughout the year.

lastly, the bugs, craziness and the lack of consistency of online game play, some games it feels we are swinging a wiffle ball bat and not the big red wiffle ball bat either!

overall i just want the game to be fun again, theres no middle ground to play online this year, i also hate the 30 win reward system because takes the fun out of trying to get better, I use to always grind for and make WS until about august, theres really no point.

the P5 system was cool this year, but next year add the option for once you reach p5 on a card you get to pick a specific or different card art, it'd be cool to differenciate and see different card arts or how people can customize, also add team chems like Madden! It'd make using roster building more unique.

The whole point of the system is to encourage people to play as many games as possible. Ranked should be about reaching 900 not just winning x number of games, ranked should be way more fun this year considering you always progress win or lose. Either was ranked was great in up until 21. 21 brought out the worst of everyone that was just taking advantage a win system. Players in the 400s-500s should actually be able to compete again. Last year those players lost enjoyment of the game because of the tanking, Would have high level players purposely losing to de rank and get easy wins.

A complete waste of XP. What they should do is cap the program at whatever XP is needed to obtain the bosses and allow you to carry extra XP to the next program or towards your choice of certain specific rewards

you're getting free packs and stubs? why cap it? Who cares if they arent guaranteed diamonds.

Hit a homerun with Goldy. Okay. First pitch slider down the middle. Power swing. Perfect/perfect flyball to dead CF. Not a no doubter. Defender runs to the wall. Jumps and makes the play. Mission failed.

And then no more than 2 minutes later, i'm sure you completed it. What was the point of this post?

Yes I did, not even 2 minutes later actually. The point is that moments are so weird that it's actually quite funny. Have you ever hit a slider in real life? I'm gonna go ahead and say no you didn't. Even Tony Gwynn will no doubt homer a slider down the middle on a powerful swing, because of you know.. physics. Goldy against a LHP with that pitch in that location and that swing, and still being able to get robbed.. that's hilarious. I thought most people would understand this and I didn't really have to explain, but I'm glad I could help you a hand here.

Would love to see the real life stats of Goldy down the middle with a slider. Doubtful he has hit 1.000 with a HR everytime

Well obviously the key point here was that I hit a perfect/perfect flyball. I'm fairly confident that Goldy is actually hitting 1.000 on that pitch with a powerful swing and the correct launch angle, but please prove me wrong.

it's almost like moments are suppose to be annoying considering its ya know a video game?

@nickrad33_psn said in Top 3 Future Stars in this program IMO:

Miller looks solid and the rest are painfully mediocre.

agreed. Selling most of them, I have 8 vouchers, just gonna rack of the stubs and by pass the future star voucher.

they all are kind of the same with different names, but i'd say

1. Miller
2. Martin
3. Foscue ( hes got the compact two hand swing like whit merrifield, crazy exit velos)

All in their final years, I mean we got a heavy Phillies program for no specific reason.

Can we get a Yadi/Waino/Pujols and friends program to celebrate their tenure and retirement???

Just saying

We got a heavy phillies program because Halladay was a new legend. At this point in the year, nobody would get excited about a yadi card or a waino card, Pujols considering they never give him his live series swing should get a sig series this year. Waino and Yadi will probably be in a new pack or something this year.

While I agree that online players would not use Waino or Yadi, offline players might. I know I would use them almost exclusively. Waino's curveball owns the CPU.

My thing is that if these guys retire then there is no telling how quickly or slowly they may be added back as legends so send them off in style and give those of us who are fans I chance to use the boosted cards for a good chunk of the year.

could legit use his Waino and Yadi's live series card against the cpu and dominate.

Just finished my second season and noticed that I didn't get the pack again. I assumed we would because it's a multi hour grind which made that pack a reasonable reward, despite the fact that you could only pick the Takashi players from launch. Kinda lame and now Mini Seasons isn't worth grinding once more.

" I assumed " you can do the bases method with face of the franchise cards and get packs each time.

Yes you can do that. But they're like what, 5 standard packs? I was specifically talking about the Takashi pack. Would've been a nice incentive to get that each time you actually win the championship.

that would tank the value, just do the 5 pack method, you can get like 25 packs an hour.

Can't make it up anymore. SDS is out to get us. I mean come on lol.
