It feels like the general consensus is that people don't enjoy the game modes where they demand a large time investment but potentially offer no reward.

I personally have no issue with conquest or mini seasons, they are perfectly fine. I enjoy the short format and the constant rewards make feel worth the time.

Diamond quest has potential if they dive more into the rouge like aspect of permanent boosts allowing you to feel like you have made progress even if you loose.

Showdown needs a major revamp. Spending stubs to enter to potentially leave with nothing after a sizeable time investment just isn't fun. There needs to be a tweak to the reward system to make it feel like I haven't just waisted an hour doing nothing but batting.

@Teak2112_MLBTS I agree that the perks should carry over. It would make it feel a lot better if you could atleast get a permanent boost to your team even if you lose a stadium game.

I would also argue that Showdown should have some sort of permanent boost if you fail a boss showdown. It would make it feel like you had made progress even if you lose everything else.

I didn't mind Diamond Quest as at least the moments broke up the monotony of the occasional showdown. It sucked to loose all your packs if you lost a stadium game but at least you could rush to the stadium and play a game without being at a massive disadvantage.

I honestly don't get this mode. I've tried to play it over the last few games and every time it is just a monotonous boring chore.

Every moment takes too long, and god forbid if you mess up a moment it can make the Showdown boss incredibly difficult.

Worst of all however is that after the time sink of playing every moment and then the final boss if you don't win you get nothing. No Exp, No, PXP, No Credits, just a 'failed' message.

I feel that it would be massively improved if you could pay credits to retry moments, and you at least recieved something for what can be an hour of play even if you don't beat the final boss

I wouldn't be surprised if it was a triple headline of Skenes, Henderson, and Cruz. I know they all already have 99's but it would make sense given this years branding to have an elite card for all three.

@DoIHearBossMusic_PSN ok cool, goodbye.

@Dolenz_PSN I'm sure SDS aren't happy about it's existence, but it feels like it is far too late to do anything about it this year. The damage has been done and I'm sure extra steps will be implemented to prevent it from happening again next year.

Also to be honest it's easy enough to just play on Rookie at the Polo Ground and get all the HR, SB, Doubles, Triples, and Strikeouts you need for any program. I honestly don't think it affects the single player experience enough to risk upsetting the community with mass ban waves.

Too many people came across it unintentionally as for a while it was the first custom stadium that appeared when you went to look for player creations for SDS to be able to ban people from using it.

Until SDS make an official statement I wouldn't trust any content creators about the issue.

As mentioned it can't be used in online multiplayer which makes sense, and for offline play it doesn't affect anyone else.

Congrats! I'm only two players shirt of finishing it myself, of course those two players are Judge and Ohtani...

I'm going to strongly disagree here. I love the games being at short three innings. It lets me quickly jump in and out and doesn't demand a solid 45 minute session for each game

@SpawnOfDitka_XBL 1000's of posts? You're really overestimating how popular these forums are...

I've really enjoyed the challenge of the hitting being more difficult this year. It was learning curve and I'm not perfect yet but I am improving.

However I would say that it should probably be toned down a little bit on beginner difficulty, as at the moment for a new player it is pretty unforgiving.

I'm having the same issue, no other games are cut off at the edge if the screen just The Show 25. No matter what I adjust in settings I can fix the display.

Hi, I did indeed have the OOP Blackmon in my squad. I had completely forgotten about him. Once he was removed the Blackmon card from the program appeared.

Thanks for the help!

I'm really confused and need some help.

I've been playing through the Career Tribute Andrew McCutchen program, and I'm nearly at the end of the reward path. I've just finished a game on conquest and on my rewards screen I had finished the Season Awards Drop 5 path and unlocked Luke Weaver and at the same time I unlocked Charlie Blackmon.

I added Luke Weaver to to my squad, then as I went to add Charlie Blackmon the game wouldn't let me. I cancelled out to navigate to manage squad to add him and discovered that his 'No Sell' card had disappeared.

He is registered in my collection page, but has completely vanished from my game.

Has this happened to anyone else, and does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?
