@Ericulous1_PSN said in TA Season 2 is underwhelming:
This game is more than just building one “God Squad to rule them all.” The logic that certain cards aren’t usable only applies to the percentage of people who only play Ranked. There are many of us who like playing all the other aspects of the game- conquests, showdowns, Mini Seasons, BR, Events, events missions etc. I pay my $100 for the game so that I can have a ton of enjoyable content to complete and a diverse set of cards of my favorite players to collect and use. This year far surpasses last by a massive margin.
This company can’t win with anyone. How is a robust program with a ton of content, 90 diamond cards, 3 showdowns, 3 conquests, an entire Mini Seasons attached to it and 6 huge reward paths filled with missions, moments, cards, stubs and XP underwhelming? If all you wanna do is have the best team to play online and don’t enjoy any of the other content or any of the cards that aren’t the top tier- that’s like buying a mansion and only using 1 room.
I agree with you. And I honestly don't understand how some people have fun just using nothing but the same META cards online all year.
However, the mode is clearly missing something.
Everything you mentioned is nice...but it's all still 3 inning stuff. Or offline. Or both.
I feel like BR is extremely popular, but it's the one mode in DD that doesn't actually USE the card collecting part of the mode.
And that brings me to what is MISSING.
A mode like BR...but 9 innings and with cards you actually OWN.
Call it a Capped mode of whatever you'd like...but something that's not just the META 99s every game when you want to play real baseball (9 innings!) and you also want the roster building strategy that is build into the draft aspect of BR.
I have little interest in playing all these offline modes and grinding my life away. I'm already "over it" for MLB 23.
You want something that adds replay-ability to the mode and makes some of these reward cards actually usable and not just FODDER?
The solution is simple and not difficult to implement.
DD already has an engine to run 3 inning versions of these BR and Events...one with a Draft and one where you build your own lineup with cards you have to own.
Now just give us one that is 9 innings and with some kind of restrictions/cap so not every game is the same old collection of the same 99 META cards.
Sooooooo easy to do...
