Packs are so hot and miss. I opened my 20 and got 2 WBC diamonds. People generally don't understand how the odds work.

I have no data to back this up, but I think initially conquest is better. DQ is just repeatable.

I think DQ gives ypu a lot but it's all 1 bronze or silver player and the odd regular pack. Then the diamonds possible for the stadiums

I pulled Ketel and Sale from those silver packs. Their odds are the same as regular packs

I actually noticed the odds after I posted that. I've gotten a few golds but no diamonds.

I’ve opened 295 packs (mostly Show packs, but a few Headliners). Have pulled 6 diamonds. Given the odds, this seems about right. No 90+ pulls yet. How’s everyone else faring?

You do realize that the odds are based on singular packs? If it states that you have a 1/10 odds of pulling a Diamond, it jeans that you have a 10% chance of pulling a Diamond out of that pack. Not 1 out of 10 packs will contain a Diamond.

Did you not read the part where he said seems about right?

I only did the tutorial one and the first one that you get a pipeline player as the epic. Did it all, every spot and played just the one stadium game and got the best reward and played it on rookie. Overall, it was an ok mode but I hate showdown and had to do 5. We'll, not had to but did 5. Won 4 of the 5 but I still hate that mode.

Does it save for individual places? I've had it save sometimes and then not another time.

@Rabid55Wolverine_PSN Clicking X on an icon for 6 hours is boring & please tell me what you like about it? Sure in 17-19 it was interesting, but 8 years later with ZERO changes. It's terrible

The fact that you are so dead set on hating conquest doesn't really make anything that I would have any meaning to you. I'm not going to debate something with a person like you because you can't see it from other people's viewpoint. I don't mind conquest and there are a lot of other people that enjoy it. Sucks that you don't.

Is care if he's a knuckle baller, it's time to put him in the game.

What if the Wakefield family doesn't want him in the game?

It's amazing how many people don't understand how they have to get people in the game. It seems like they think that they can just put in whomever they want.

I seriously don't get the hate for the conquest maps. I get that stuff was locked behind it but for offline players, stuff is locked too though there is always some that whine that it is. Conquest isn't too bad now that they broke up the USA map.

I dont really remember it from last year because I hated the seasons model so I abandoned the game but i played a few games of mini seasons and seemed pretty quick to me.

I haven't seen a freeze there but I did twice in a conquest game. Could be just unlucky I guess. Hopefully it doesn't become common

These are user created players in the vault so it'll depend on how long it takes for someone getting to it

@Frankdatruetank said in Female story fail:

I love the concept. But it failed on one aspect, your female player is not the first woman to play in the Double A - historically speaking. April 2nd, 1931 Jackie Mitchell debuted in an exhibition game between the Chattanooga Lookouts and the New York Yankees. She made history by striking out both Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig before walking Tony Lazzeri.

It's not a fail. It was an exhibition game and players don't actually register until they play an actual regular season game which is why they are correct.

Finally got on and now says maintenance lol

So far, no. Not for me. What a shocker, every year

@Justianhael_PSN said in So hard to Hit HR in moments:

On Team affinity season 3 moments.
Jorge Soler HR moment..9 Perfect Perfect swings..no homer..with 122 power. Is this even close to realistic. So in real life if this dude gets 9 perfect hits at a ball none are going out? [censored] this game

Only time I've had a perfect swing not go out in these kinds of moments is when the launch angle wasn't good enough. Perfect could be a line drive, ground ball or fly ball depending on how the contact is made. That being said, do what other people are doing and directional and power swing holding up. Done in minutes

I still don't see a good reason for expiring cards and it still blows my mind that people defend it.

If I learned anything around here throughout the years, it would be that people will go to extreme lengths to defend their favorite game. Positive bias is a very real thing.

You are right about that but it also works both ways. There is a lot of people that will be negative just to be negative.

Not sure about that. I can only speak for myself of course but I can truthfully say that I really want to love this game and this franchise more than any other game out there, for various reasons. But I just end up being disappointed year in year out. So yes, I voice that frustration and I do it by not just trolling and saying the game is bad or it sucks blabla, I always provide feedback with in depth arguments.

And yet people will perceive me as constantly negative because they don't actually care about (or even read) the arguments I provide, they just see a complaint and put me in the complainers container.

I wasn't talking about you directly but there are some that no matter what is done, they will be negative just to be negative. I get frustrations with this game, I stopped playing it a month ago and not saying anyone has or doesn't have the right to complain. I was just stating that it works both ways

I dont think any company worries too much about EA and sports titles. People said the same when they brought back NBA and what happened? 2k baseball crumbled as well. I don't think the show has to worry. I wish they would though because it would make a better product by being pushed.

It's pretty laughable that anyone thinks that some random major league player could just jump behind the plate and just catch everything. There might be some yes, and if there is no batter and not in a game then more than likely yes but in a game, batter swinging and all that's going on, no shot a high number are doing well.
