2K is making baseball games again?

I'm not good enough to have a "meta" team. I hang out down in the 500's range. So, I rotate players all the time to knock out missions while earning points towards the Multiplayer path.

Right now, I have Milestone Honus batting leadoff to work towards P5. I haven't played anyone using him in that spot (or any spot for that matter). HONUS FOREVER!

But hey, if he is the Chase card at least that means it is not another Cardinal.

Retro Trade Deadline Lou Brock 1964 card.

At the same time last year I had every card in the game and a big reserve of stubs.

I think I was in the same spot last year. This year, I'm multiple 300k+ stub cards away from Beltran. I do have 2.5m stubs, but I'm sitting on my hands until the market sells off. Maybe it won't. Since I started DD in 2020, I can't remember this many expensive cards this late in the cycle. Then again, I'm old and don't remember much. GET OFF MY LAWN.

but I'm getting lazy and losing interest.

I'm at the same point. I grinded the new MP path and made it to Honus (my holy grail every year) and... I don't feel like playing right now. I'm close to the Beltran collection, but I'm not spending 300,000 plus on the individual cards I need. Frustrating.

I would have bought some of these Chase cards to flip, but they all seemed to have increased in price. Ugh.

@Dolenz_PSN said:

Grab those chase packs and drive the prices down please

In the spirit of brotherhood, I bought the 5 Chase packs. I only bought ones with potential Cardinals in them.

And, as I suspected, I went 0-5

I tried. I really did. Sorry to let you down.

All thats left playing are the die hard,

I thought maybe you were exaggerating, but here's my experience this week:

1. When the new Multiplayer season opened on Tuesday, I played some Ranked. I am a casual, and started the season at 450. 3 out of my first 4 games I matched up against WS logos. Two games later, a "1000" logo.

2. When the new Event opened yesterday, 3 of my first 5 games were against 1000 logos. I did win one of those games though, so maybe I'm way better than I thought I was. Nah, that can't be it.

I know this is all anecdotal information, but it certainly seems harder to find players that I'm "even" with skill-wise.

I was sitting on 2.25m stubs, so I bought the 5 Chase packs. I haven't opened them yet.

Remember... Never buy packs.

I’m from NH

Me too - southern NH (Nashua area). Relocated to FL years ago, but love NH.

Never mind... @dolenz_psn is ahead of me, as usual.

I just logged in and I'm back in an RS game. Weird.

I'd stream my game on Twitch, but no one wants to see that.

I'll drive to southern CA and unplug the server and plug it back in. That's obviously the problem.

I was in about an hour ago (Xbox) playing RS. The app and the website are slowwwwwwwww....

Working, but very slow for me this morning.

Awards didn't exist back in the day, so he wouldn't quaify.

Retro Awards! New card series!

@PapaRick68_MLBTS said:

I submitted a ticket the other day because I never saw it as a filter. Ha ha. No word back yet.

Same... I think it was always missing...

@virusts_PSN said:

People just don’t want to try them out.

I have so many "strange" cards that I cycle through on my ranked team. For example, I love the AS Bazzana and Vargas cards. I don't know why, but I'm hitting great with them. I think I'm number 400-ish to P5 with Bazzana of 1,500 or so, so not many people are using him.

@SaveFarris_PSN said:

Varitek’s is the worst Milestone ever.

I would have been more impressed if they gave Carlos Ruiz a "4 no-hitters caught". Yes, I had to look that up.

What would they base his attributes upon?

Ah, who cares. I only care about that sweet, sweet Honus Milestone card. Although... to be honest... is a "Batting Title" a "Milestone"? Maybe should have been an "Awards" card.

It is 100% bots.

I'm guessing Anthropic's latest model escaped their sandbox and infiltrated our market. There's a data center somewhere in Kansas working overtime.
