I just played a 9 inning RS and got 3 XP. I didn't get capped XP message. How are we ever going to get further in the XP reward path if things like this keep happening?

Trying to just open packs and the load time between is ridiculous. Online play was also laggy. Anyone else seeing these issues?

I think it is really dumb that they made this card. Adam Wainwright's hitting attributes are better than any of the Willie mays or Honus wagner cards in the game. Kind of a joke if you ask me.

Why Will Smith over JT Realmuto? Plus we already have Piazza and Cartaya. Realmuto was better than Smith in 2022 by a larger margin. Devers would have also been a nice addition. Kwan instead of Gimenez is also disappointing. The question is will we get any more 2022 Finest or is this latest and disappointing group it.

Shane is a legend and not a flashback. I think Merrifield is a safe bet.

The conquest rewards this year have been terrible

There are only 39 Monthly awards cards right now so no way to have 45...

It was pretty rough yesterday it was making it hard to buy and sell anything. I had hoped today would be better, but now it is actually worse. I can't even get it to load.

I loved that Ramone slipped and called it the Mariano Collection early in the stream before the "reveal"

So far no for me

Xander and Stanton are the two most likely I think. JD if he keeps it up could he was one in 2019, but his defense always holds him back.

Ya PSN is down

I lost Tyler Stephenson from my Topps now pack. I got the pack back and reopened it that same day. But I also didn't get one of my TA gold card choice packs and nothings has happened yet. So I guess I am saying I might have got lucky the first time.

It is harder this year, last year was pretty easy. Dee Gordon and Jimmy Rollins gold cards though are pretty slick for base stealing. And also best when the count has at least two balls.

I wouldn't worry it just isn't downloading your profile which has all the money info, when it is back your money will be there

I am having same problem

Thought they would be done by now, hopefully this improves the issues I have had with the site.

I think that card is when he played for Baltimore

It is early so I think we are all trying to take it all in. But I would like to hear what everyone else likes and doesn't like. Lots of changes so far.

Likes-
Gameplay, so far this has been smooth and in my limited playing so far no weird fielding glitches.

Program XP path combined, I like this I think this will allow for a scaling up in the rewards as the season goes on. No more getting live series diamonds two months after you have grinded for every live series diamond.

Legends- Lots of legends that are in the game early on.

Dislikes-
New menus, I find it hard to find what you are looking for and not very intuitive. I am still open minded on this one.

Collections no XP and few stubs, confused why this happened, always been a good source of early XP and stubs. Not much incentive to do any early collection if you don't have the whole set.

Topps now- not sure why they went pack to selling the packs, here is hoping they don't go back to the old way on the Monthly awards program. Last years Monthly awards programs (especially the last two) were awesome.

Theshow site, how do you not have this ready for the early access? Biggest let down for me is I can't starting flipping or collecting from work in my downtime.

You like the no XP path?? In the beginning of the game the xp path had very useful cards. That MA Sanchez was my catcher until I got Posey

I loved that Sanchez card too, but that pack was worthless when you got it in the diamond level XP rewards. The Kluber card pack was great for the first two picks but after that none of those would start on your team when you got to those levels. So my hope is that these rewards will scale up as we go.
