Now, i'll preface this by saying that everyone's experience is different, however, this All-Star drop has gone really smoothly for me and i've enjoyed playing the game for the first time in a bit.
A few notes;
They've given us many avenues to complete programs, which is a big improvement on recent drops.
You can largely, truly, play your way this weekend.The servers haven't missed a beat for me.
I've played WC, event games and offline and all has gone well, and the menus have been super smooth.There's a ton of XP around, which hopefully means we all get a boss this innings.
Most all of the cards are easily attainable, which was my worry with the TA drop disappearing.
I've been very critical of SDS this year and this doesn't fix the many issues that remain, but credit where credit is due, this weekend has been fun.
I hope you all have had a similar experience.
Menus have been crazy slow for me but other than that fine all around
I do like the programs ideas as others have said
