The communication on the whole is absolutely terrible.

they have been silent since the all star game they don't want to face the community they are so tone deaf its sad.

@Bridge-Piece_XBL

Yes i was bitching about it last night because i was at work and read all the posts that you had to do DQ to get the cards which i think sucks. I got home and thought lets try to get at least one of them and i think within 30 minutes i had them both. It was pretty easy I have to admit that so i jumped the gun on it before i played it by criticizing it. i think my first card was 99 percent on the 2 lower levels and 100 percent the rest of them and the 2nd one was 100 percent every level.

That is not true. One of the things that I and many others have noticed is that there are no longer repeatable missions to finish programs. There are repeatable rewards in conquest maps but not missions for program completion. By not including such repeatable missions, SDS is not allowing players who take the easier-but-slower route a way to play our way to finish programs. Instead we are forced to do moments, showdowns and other modes we do not prefer.

I think you're missing my point. All I'm saying is that if you agree that playing on easier levels should take longer, than you aren't actually in favor of "play your way". Because for someone else out there they may not be able to do those things. I completely agree with you that repeatable missions and playing on easier levels/modes taking longer is a good idea. It's just not play your way.

it is play his way the length of time is irrelevant if i can do items 1 2 5 and 6 and you do 1 2 3 4 and we both get the same rewards in the end then we both played our way.

I don’t see why not. In my extreme program example “my way” is playing over many months (mostly on repeatable missions on veteran) to complete imo the most difficult program in the game while “someone else’s way” is to complete showdowns, extreme moments, and even repeatable missions at a much faster clip because they are playing online or at higher difficulties thereby getting PXP much faster.

I interpret “play your way” (wherever and whenever SDS actually said that) to be any preferred combination of program points to get the target to complete the program. Every time a new program comes out I look to see how I will complete it based on my preferences.

exactly play my way is how do i complete a program or task playing the modes i want to play only. yes it might take longer to do it but if i can do it not having to do 20 moments a DQ and a showdown and can do 10 moments a conquest and some stat missions to me thats play my way. I am not forced to do modes i don't like to get the same rewards others get by completing the modes they like.

i recall it from the early streams maybe even the pre launch ones

@MikeB14085_PSN they said the hard r multiple times in a live stream,, that’s when the streams stopped

This is a ridiculous reach. It's just her accent, and twisting that into an accusation of racism is completely unfair. She did nothing wrong, and dragging her character over how she speaks is out of line. Enough with the manufactured outrage and virtue signaling.

ah i guess i missed that while she annoys me ( I can't place why she just does ) i have never gotten those vibes about her. my take is they didn't want to face the chat criticism of their crappy product they lied about so much and took to long to take any action against the cheaters and the TOS violators. They would sit there with the rose colored glasses ( probably made to by corporate ) and not address any concerns and that was a slap in the face to the customer base i think.

go watch the early streams it was hounded play the game the way you want to earn the rewards it wasn't about multiplayer. i don't care ( as many other offline players probably don't ) if you make the offline requirements a little more than an online one if they think that balances it out but let me play the game and modes i like to play. not you must do DQ and not be guaranteed the card you played for or you must do 12 moments to complete a program along with a 16 team playoff conquest and 4 other stat missions.

its not even about talented in my book. there are modes i don't find fun DQ is the main one if you are making me play a mode for a card that is needed it should be guaranteed especially if its no sell. I don't care for showdowns either but a number of them this year you had to do for collections rewards and it took some time for some of them but i got through them. They have gotten so tone deaf as a company its insane and it sucks. Like all the playoff programs you had to do all the moments then finally the last 2 they let you do other things that you didn't need to do all the moments if you didn't want to. Then the retro program gotta do all the moments again its like you just fixed what people have complained about but don't do it for the retro programs ( the retro programs were all like that so it was consistent but if they changed one why not all is my point ) They sit there and say play how you want to but still make you play their way on a lot of things. Spotlight was another issue i had where you do the last program of the month for the lightning card those cards you earn in the reward path should be the collection you need not have to have most the pack cards complete the retro lightning collection the other cards end up worthless for the most part. They haven't done any live streams since the all star game because they can't take the criticism in the chat over things they refuse to address since day 1. I love baseball so i am the sucker they are looking for to keep buying the game but i will be slow to pre order next year.

yep i hate DQ if i am playing a mode it shouldn't be a gamble if i get the card.

Great to see how SDS decided no innings mission at all this season and instead 2-3 ranked games to get 15k pxp for 5k progress

haven't played ranked since they changed that. i can grind through innings to get through the program. seems like such a slog with the xp mission instead when people constantly quit and you have to keep playing to get points towards 15k at least if someone quit after 3 innings i made decent progress.

@beatlesnews_MLBTS said:

I did not play last year, but two years ago the only way you could get the final card in the Spooky program was to do a showdown. I am have no luck with showdowns whatsoever. Not being able to finish that program was one of the reasons why I did not play last year. So if there are to be showdowns involved here, please make an alternate way to complete the program. Please. Thx.

I could be wrong, and someone here can verify this for me... but isn't the conquest repeatable for 20 points?

repeatable for packs not the points i don't believe

@sbchamps17_NSW said:

I've been doing the Shark map alot, it's a free 5k XP every time you complete it plus the premiere Pipeline pack

I did get 2 Aiva Arquettes, expected a 3rd, along with a Caminiti dupe recently, but they're sellable, at least.

you get the 5k everytime?

my one i pulled a 2nd egg hunt mookie and sold it to make some stubs and the last 2 i earned i got like live series cards barely at quicksell.

YFK is such a clown, he's live right now blaming SDS and deflecting

exactly he is total trash. boo hoo people did it for years ( doesn't make it right ) guys a tool bag.

@virusts_PSN said:

Yeah it better not be 250,000 pxp lol. So De Vries will be the chase card then

it is and its dumb lol i still didnt finish buxton.

@PapaRick68_XBL I still don't get red Roch there is nothing different about that card.

good question you might get the card i don't know about the packs

just when you think they can't possibly be more scummy towards the market.

@TheGoaler_PSN said:

Tim Anderson should get a flashback card, imo.
His career took a horrible turn, but his walk-off back in 2021 was legendary.
I was still a Yankee hater back then (not anymore), so i was ecstatic!

you mean jackie?

i prefer him after how many years of the other 2 who say like the same 5 lines in GBL i just wish i could turn ROFLO on in there but its locked to the other guys.
