I completed the extreme program, doing all but one moment (Griffey 8 tanks) cause as you might have guessed, I'm not much of a good player. idk how many times the 25k pxp mission got completed but I got Kerry to P5 like a week ago, so that got me a good chunk of stars, obviously completed the conquest and that was it, so if anyone gets discouraged by the program, it really isn't that hard. The hardest moment for some ppl might be the dev's godsquad, but just as many ppl say for the showdown, just take a lot of pitches, hit as best as you can (which can be tough but you only need to get lukcy a couple times, it just takes patience). so yeah, it's doable, for any ppl who might get discouraged (this post may be too late but I just wanted to share)

If you pick the rain when you're the home team, just know I don't wish you any well in any of your future endeavours and absolutely despise you

Why would they do that? SDS openly rewards cheesers and freezers. These are the chumps that spend real world money on digital cards. SDS may as well change their name to EA sports part 2.

How are correlating people who spend money on stubs with people who dashboard?

Because they are usually not good enough to grind for the big cards, so they just go the short route and buy them.

It's not that some people aren't "good" enough to grind for cards, it's that some of them have lives outside of video games and can't put as much time as maybe you and I do into a game, they've got more important things to worry about.

@Blind_Bleeder said in It has to be the most frustrating:

Easy answer. Perfect contact does not equal perfect results. It doesn't on the field, and it doesn't in the game. It never has and never will. Way too many people are hung up on this. They want arcade results instead of baseball results.

I mean we want "arcade" results because we are playing a video game? If you have a perfect input on a video game you should get a perfect or at least decent result every time, taking into account how much harder it is to have a perfect input in comparison to the other types of input, it obviously is true that baseball doesn't work that way, but it doesn't mean the game has to work exactly like real life

This game is by no means perfect, and you might even be able to say it's not good, but I don't think anyone understands how much less fun this game would be if it was just PCI on ball simulator. You want all your pitchers having 7.00+ ERAs and your hitters all hitting 600, your team scoring 30 runs a game? That's what it will be if we get arcade results.

Idk how ya'll come to these conclusions, I don't want whatever tf you said, what I'm saying is, if I get perfect input I should be rewarded more than the guy who's getting late hits all the time. As an example: Last night I was playing some dude and he hit a fastball through a hole to right side with good timing, which is obv ok, then hit an inside snk late timing double to score a run, he had like 3 or 4 more late hits that led to runs. I had 3 perfects and no hits to show for them, so you're telling me this guy was deservingly beating me because I'm asking for "arcade results"?

@MycoSynth-Valde-_MLBTS said in Won't let me switch any team logos:

I think a way around it would be to delete all files with the old logo then download the ones you want. It sounds like a pain, but if it works, it works.

Alr done that so I'm pretty much screwed lmao

Many ppl are saying he´ll probably get a retro finest for his 99 or some other type of card but doesn't it make sense for it to be the final reward of the Takashi collection? I mean, I'm new to the show but didn't they bring up the Takashi cards in honor of his love for anime/manga or smth like that? It'd only make sense to me if he were the final collection reward for the Takashi series

@Myprecious_MLBTS said in Shohei's 99's series:

He better be, only reason why I'm keeping up with the Takashi cards...

I don't even have many of them (barely enough for Cutch voucher) but when that 99 Shohei drops I'm most def getting him

@brainfreeze442 said in Need a current meta Brandon Marsh:

You can always build a CAP, give him Marsh’s stance, and name him Brandon Marsh. Maybe people won’t realize you are using a CAP!
Seriously though, you like his swing more than any, or at least, most other players? I haven’t used him much at all. I want to try him now.

Yeah but building a CAP is so tedious, like I was doing a SS named Jon Snow I tried for him to look like Kit Harington and all but I just got bored halfway through the grind. I do like it more than most other players but I'd have to test it in comparison to Brett, Ketel and Cutch, rn my cap is on Brett's swing but I've kinda been struggling with both him and George so I was considering putting him on Cutch's whom I'm batting 430 with through 100 ab so I think I'm comfortable with it, your idea isn't bad tho I might try that out

I don’t use a CAP myself, I don’t like grinding RTTS either. I also haven’t gotten McCutchen yet. We have Betts coming out Tomorrow, I am curious how good his attributes will be. My favorite swing is Griffey Jr., but who knows when we will see an actual 99 overall of him.
I hope we get double XP at some point, I still didn’t get the boss pack. If you got it, who did you pick?

Oh fasho, if Mookie's attributes are godsquad material I'll be just throwing him into right. It'll probably be toward the end of the program, about sept 13 or sumn I'd say (the 2x xp). Cutch is nasty tho whenever you get him, he's just a beast. And I picked Chipper, I wasn't really in need of a 1b + switch hitting is a very good added value imo, also didn't feel like I needed to add another bullpen arm so it was an ez pick for me

I just love his swing and I do real good with his cards, I just need him to get a great card and I'm set for life

@arvcpa_MLBTS said in Yes, you heard me right...:

Dear SDS... Supercharge Trout.

Or, a Topps Now card with a moment of "24 Total Bases in 6 games". Either way.

They already supercharged Trout

@CCARR77_PSN said in Cliff Lee went off:

I made some great burger earlier tonight. Delicious

Save me some

Cliff Lee just throw a great game that ended in 68 pitches, insane

Ofc they dropped the finest Clemente, so I'm thinking they'll prob drop another Frank (not really anything hard to think about ofc) and I need him on my team rn

@jonblaze2424_PSN said in Has anyone used or faced that 99 Syndergaard?:

Have always had mixed feelings about his cards. Guy was always a hidden gem, atleast for me, and i think last year or the year before they tweaked his motion and seems far more hittable. Debating if i want to drop the 100k on him…..any feedback?

Just did, his slider looks pretty quick but I think (don't remember too precisely) I did hit him, I'm not a bad nor good hitter but I feel like for most ppl he would be fairly hittable, + I think his h/9 aren't that high

Watch a video on how to flip cards and do that (if you have the time) it should make you about 15-30k every 20 min (or that's what it made me when I flipped, you can do even more)

It's not a bad team tho, definitely usable

@halfbutt_PSN said in Anyone ever do this by accident?:

You grind to get your next LOTF AL east pack and then accidentally pick a different card instead of the Hank Aaron you THOUGHT you were picking?

Yeah, I just did that. Derp. Anyone want to buy André Dawson?

It happened to me once but with another type of choice pack, I don't remember now

@MRAD2010_XBL said in Finest Jim Edmonds:

I got him today and tried him out and all I have to say is he’s cracked. 125 power vs both sides and a smooth swing kinda like Cano. If u don’t have him you should get him. Highly recommend. Have a few home runs with him already. The first at bat I hit one that still hasn’t landed.

I stunk with him lmao, I'm just keeping headliners for the sake of collections, if there's more

@BIG_PAPIx34_PSN said in Retro Finest Cueto:

How does he play on All-Star? Can a decent hitter pick up his pitches?

Just hit the 100pts in the BR Program and wondering if I should keep/sell my pick and whom I should pick.

I'd choose depending on what type of pitchers you do better with really, cause personally I'm really big on Mussina-type pitchers where I can locate better and all that stuff, but if you do better with more high-velo guys with some decieving pitches I would just take my 200k. Either way if you wanna try him that's always a possibility obv no need to sell right away (at least not until near the end of the br program when everybody's doing it)

@Chrono_Omega_PSN said in Retro Finest Cueto:

All star difficulty doesn’t matter because every game is a [censored] shoot. Hall of fame is what you want to look at.

I mean if he's asking for All-Star that's what matters to him bruh
