I am assuming you mean 2018? I didnt think 2017 was too bad.

It's market manipulation and it's been happening since before the app.

I agree market manipulation has been happening long before the app I have just never seen it like this. Maybe I haven’t specifically looked but don’t recall it on so many cards at the same time.

@Phreetrader6490_XBL

Completely agree.
There are quite a few all star series cards with this issue of hundreds of buy now orders at a loss to quick sell.

@Phreetrader6490_XBL

There was something similar on the all star judge a week ago but not to the volume of this Ohtani card. It can’t be bots buying and selling because they would be taking losses on the sale Is it bots completing the xp path and then getting Ohtani for free and trying to dump him?

What is going on with this card? I just checked and there were 212 available at a price of 119,097. With many other multiples of 20 at other levels. Is this bots? What is this? I thought the limit was 20 - this would mean 11 different people had 20 each and listed them at some random price?

@NWOStunna_PSN

To be clear I think Beltran will be the ultimate collection reward. Switch hitter meta player. It is there MO this year. I also feel this is incredibly scummy hiding him behind big collections two years in a row.

yesavage and weatherholt for Cityscapes

This is interesting because if there is a flash sale almost guaranteed rookies pack will be part of it which will tank the value. Too much risk in these cards (flash sale or just not needed) for me.

Ken Singleton could be better than Beltran this year. Give him like 90 speed with maxed out hitting stats.

The nl east collection Ken singleton was low key amazing for me, it was hard to take him out of my lineup. Of course with the move away from legends in general to allow for 6 PCA cards it is unfortunate there hasn’t been an updated singleton.

@SpawnOfDitka_XBL wouldn’t be suprised if it’s Beltran watch them make it slightly harder then it would have been if it wasn’t a meta guy.

Beltran would just solidify the shift towards monetization. Last year the best Beltran card was the live series collection - so locked behind a collection and this year he would be locked behind a collection again. SDS circa 2019-2022 would not put the same player behind significant collections two years in a row. Therefore I am hopeful Beltran will be the program reward and andruw jones the collection.

I realize this is not likely.

I think this week with L&F collection coming. Leiter needs to come down.

If Lieter doesn't come down then I will skip the Signature series for now. I just want Stanton or Berkman to come down so I can get one more card from the Postseason series, for insurance purposes.

I would think you need both Berkman and Stanton from postseason. Most series seem to have been forgotten about this year and so after 2 collections already there aren’t alot of skipable options.

You'll need Common pitcher Ramone.

This is a guarantee!! Only available by striking out in offline home run derby mode.

@Onix_Savage22_PSN

I realize my request is in the players best interest and maybe not the best interest of the business but historically SDS has held flash sales before a large collection release so I will continue to hold out hope.

We desperately need a flash sale to lower prices on many of the chase pack cards. Otherwise this collection will be the most expensive one yet.

@samguenther1987_PSN

We can always hold out hope

@Jeff7407_PSN why make it to where you get to play conquest and complete it while others have to do multiple things. If anything they messed up with giving the entire program for conquest.

I agree with this.

@sbchamps17_NSW said:

I just wish that they wouldn't force us to do showdown to complete the program, just put a repeatable mission in there to make it easier for people who don't like or have trouble doing showdowns

This season has been so backwards. Almost every program includes multiple ways to complete them, why is this one different? The all star “program” only needed a conquest to complete, not a single mission or moment. Why take away those options? Why not have 4HRD moments for 5 points each or an online PXP mission for the points in addition to showdown. Give us options. This is just backwards and not user friendly.

@rubicante23_PSN

My take exactly on this draft program or rather draft conquest map.

@ryguy034753_XBL said:

@Jeff7407_PSN weird take but cool man.

Let me explain further. This had the chance to be a great program. Make the conquest worth 50 and add an online PXP mission for 50 points at 2000pxp online with draft players.
Now online only players can complete the program with just missions and do it entirely online. Offline players can pick and choose a combination of missions moments and conquest. A big offline problem this year has been lack of content with the removal of team affinity. This could have helped fill the void and at least been a 2 hour program. Instead what we got was one conquest map and a situation that forced online players to play offline. At that point why even have a program at all. Just release a conquest map.

The repeatable draft pack is nice and I’m not complaining about that, just suggesting a slight change to the program could have made this release great.

@ryguy034753_XBL said:

That's it, you get 100 pts for the conquest.

This is terrible. Why even have a program if you are going yo do this. Make the conquest 20 or 30 not making a skip of the entire program.

Yep. It was working 30 minutes ago and now nothing.
