Ok new chase guy, sorry.

Aside from the market, where do you get Carlos Santana. Probably missed something obvious but not sure where he is.

Acuna, maybe.

Just wondering if any of you have gotten either the 75,000 or the million this year?
I haven't and I know two other guys who play the game and neither have they. Wondering how many have. If you have, when you open the pack does a diamond come up?

No, you only get them once. Be nice if they would reset the big map, but not happening.

There is nothing on the calendar until the 12th. Nine days with no content? In the middle of the baseball season?

Nope, sure isn't

@BJDUBBYAH thanks I'll try that.

Wondering if anyone else is having the problem I've had. I finished all the moments for Toni Stone. I had previously finished all the others, and received those cards in my inventory.
But I have not received the Stone card. Or the Rube Foster card. I've sent a message and got the auto response from SDS, about a week ago.
Anybody else have a similar issue with Storylines player cards?

Maybe skipping the alpha testing wasn't a great idea.

1 What legends will we gain? I'm guessing more steroid era guys.
2 What legends will we lose? Hate to lose any but will be relieved when I see Mickey
3 Who will live series collection guy be? Wild guess, ARod
4 Who will be the most expensive gold at launch? Yamamoto, maybe?
5 Will we look forward to Set 2, or will we dread it?

For me, Signature series was still the best. Looks classy and solid cards.
Toss up between Kaiju and Incognito for worst. Monsters on baseball cards? No thanks. And has anyone ever heard DJ called Big Fundy?
I have to admit, Snapshot seemed a little silly, too.

I didn't even come close, just wondering how many got every card. Hats off to those that did.

I don't claim to be a NL expert or anything, but it is something I've been interested in for several years. This assumes they will have 8 new players again this year, mix of pitchers and position players.
I imagine they will have one marquee name, which would probably mean either
1 Josh Gibson or Cool Papa Bell, likely not both. We all know about these guys.
2 Oscar Charleston, cf. John McGraw said he was the best all around player he ever saw. High praise from a guy who saw Honus, Babe, Cobb etc.
3 Willie "Devil" Wells, SS. Another all around great. Won NL triple crown. They called him the black Honus Wagner.
4 Mule Suttles, 1b-of. Power hitter.
5 Gentleman Dave Malarcher, rhp. Actually played all over the field, a lot like Dihugo. Maybe not quite as good, though.
6 Smokey Joe Williams, rhp. Blazing fastball.
7 Double Duty Radcliffe, rhp-c. He would often pitch the first game of a double header, then catch the second game. Amazing.
8 Bill Foster, lhp. One of the best lefties in NL history.
Just wild guesses, really. Plenty of others to choose from. Great names like Turkey Stearns, Bullet Rogan, Cristobol Torriente, Buck Leonard and tons more.

@GixxerRyder750 If they do it again, I suggest a voucher system where you get a voucher for every 2000 xp gained from Negro League players you can apply to any team Affinity.

Offline player only, played since the Show 17. Just my 2 cents.
OVERALL GRADE- C minus. Not a complete disaster, but the weakest version since I've played.
SETS AND SEASONS GRADE- D. Seasons far too long. Sets rotating out was terrible. We put too much time and stubs into getting to have them sitting unavailable. Wild card just doesn't cut it. I'm sure S&S will be back but I hope it's gone.
NEGRO LEAGUES GRADE- C. I love the players being in the game, but really think SDS dropped the ball overall with them. The early Storylines were fun and interesting. But there was never a Part 2 where we got better versions. They just plopped them into different areas like any other cards. Kept waiting for either part 2 or a Negro Leagues program that never came.
And as free agents, their stats didn't count towards TA, which made them much less attractive to use, at least to offliners. A voucher system seems like a easy fix.
Finally, the cards seemed a little underwhelming, didn't they? The only one that really stood out was Donaldson. These guys deserve better cards.
TEAM AFFINITY GRADE- C minus. Like many offliners, I was very happy to see TA back. But if it's going to be like this, it could go away again. 97 overall rewards all the way to season 5 were pretty weak. Then no TA at all in the final season.
PLAYERS WITH MULTIPLE 99s GRADE - B minus. If each successive cards had been better than the last, it would have made more sense. But it wasn't always. Very few legends got multiple 99s. Why?
GAMEPLAY GRADE- A. I felt like it was good from the start. I hear pinpoint was messed up, but I've never used it, so I can't say.
PROGRAMS GRADE- C plus. Not the best year but not the worst. The last 2-3 programs were among the most enjoyable ever.
CONQUEST MAPS GRADE- A. Big fan of Conquest and liked the constant flow of new maps.
MINI SEASONS GRADE- C plus. Gameplay seems to drag now, too many added animations you have to wait for. Do like the different versions now though. I wish mini seasons would be 5-6 inning games, to make it different from conquest.

@YOSHI24 it's just that those are among my favorite guys to play with. It galls me to know I have them but can't use them. What's the point if you can't play with the players you want to? Just don't like that aspect of sets and Seasons.

I spent way to much in time and stubs to acquire Ruth, Chipper, Mickey, etc to watch them sit on a shelf. I'm waiting to see that outcome as well.

It's pretty clear that sets and Seasons will be back next year. But what if it was up to us?
Simple poll. Do you want it back or would you rather see it gone?
My vote would be gone. I hate sets rotating out. The wild card just doesn't do it.

I thought the World Series was really loaded this year.
