I completely agree with your post. The online players will disagree, saying you want everything for free. Are they not getting it for free? And profiting if they decide to sell? It works both ways. Someone mentioned in post why would you play the CPU when you could actually play humans. Just look at the comebacks on most posts. That's why I don't want to play humans. I don't think they'll do it, but wish they would.

Nice to see we have some young girls that play.
Don't care anymore. Too much double talk. They could care less about us. I bet the minor leaguers would love to play in the major league stadiums. Get them. I'd watch.
Why leave it up for an hour after it sells out in a few seconds? Get rid of it and put up a different one.

Yea that is lame, why would they do that I wonder?
Because you’ve already completed stage 1, how does that not make sense?
I'd like to get 105 w/o playing online. Make sense?
It's interesting how people can be so arrogant just because they believe they are better than others.
Yeah. Almost positive I'm older than most here. So I have, but I'm sick of these guys crying about the original deal. That was made before anyone said there would be no fans in attendance. It's all about the money. Just cancel the seaon or use guys that actually want to play.

I was buy order number 116 before anyone made WS. I know it will take longer than other WS rewards cause many people won't sell Mays, so should I be thinking like a month? 2 months?

Not to get political but given what we've put up with and accepted during the last four years, anything is possible at this point...

Yeah. It sucks when good things happen and promises are kept.

I would definitely be in on an over 40 league. I would probably still suck but at least it would be fun as hell knowing that when someone pauses the game, they’re not being jerks, they’re just yelling at their kids hahaha
Or a weak bladder
It used to be helpful and informative from both players and mods. Now the mods are MIA and the comments are full of dbag posters. Many threads on an issue? Who cares? Does it affect your storage? Just pass on by to something you might have some knowledge about to help another player out. How hard is that?

I had both on roster for extra inning game with no problem. Brought Hicks in as a sub, but the commentary referred to him as Kike Hernandez.
It does that. Probably showed you 900,000,000 outs for the final showdown. Have to forfeit and start over. Has happened to me more than once on at least 2 different showdowns

The good news is now you don’t need to do the showdown or play in events to get the Field of Dreams program done.
I have everything done except for showdown and online and have 98 ponts. Still have to do one if the other things.

Not trying to say anyone is right or wrong in this deal...just trying to provide a different perspective, especially if SDS really does read this stuff. In my opinion this has been a very fair and pretty cool program. It really is a bit of everything and there are an few ways to get to the end of it. Diamond Dynasty is not an online mode and it is not an offline mode...it is a mode designed around card collecting and some cards are obtained online and some offline. There are programs like Topps Now, POTM, Daily Moments, Evolution, etc. that really are only offline and an "online" player has to to play offline if they want those cards. There is a path with this program that allows a fully "offline" player to complete the program...where there are many programs that do not give the "online" player the same luxury.
I understand where you are coming from. It would be great for SDS to offer more online options to complete those programs for online players. I think the big thing is they snuck in that requirement and you wouldn’t notice until you did the math that you would be short without showdown or online.
I have started playing more online, but for the most part have been an offline player. I really wish there were more offline modes...even if you didn't obtain cards. I just get a bit nervous anytime someone says "take away showdown" or "take away moments". There really are not many offline modes in the first place.
I don’t have complainants about the variety of offline modes other than a reason to use your DD team for nine inning games.
Exactly. Moments and showdowns are both fine and I wouldn't have a problem with them if they were optional side modes and not the meat of the offline DD structure.
I dont know why its so hard to give us a mode that lets us play 9 inning games with our DD squad with some kind of structure and rewards.
They did. Until online players griped about having to grind. So they just completely got rid of it. Don't try to tell me they don't cater to online.

Stop trying to force these modes that people hate on us. They should be optional to complete a program (for offline players). Moments are the worst. No one says, "I can't wait for more moments". They say, "I HAVE to do these real quick to get back to playing what I actually enjoy".
If you're going to force showdown on us, you can't let disconnects lead to not getting the runs or failing completely. This has happened to me several times. For a casual player like me, runs are crucial. Maybe I am wrong and just venting because I hate this mode and it is causing me stress that I won't complete a program but I think I have some valid points that SDS needs to hear.I believe SDS is merely trying to spread some variety to the many diverse gamers out here and their ever spanning thirst for quantity not quality.
Just give Showdown a chance. The Devs are doing the best they can to be creative and accommodating to all. It's a tightrope they must walk.
I have played that showdown five times now. Three times I failed the first mini boss. The other two I failed at the second mini boss. So much time wasted for nothing. Go ahead and flame me for being bad at the game. I never sniffed online to bother anyone else online playing the game. I have zero issues doing more moments (which I know many players hate) or higher stat missions to make up for it.
Don’t feel bad man. I’ve been struggling with this showdown too. Also I Love the user name.
I've tried twice. First time it said I had around 900,000 outs to beat Henke. Then whin I started it was an exhibition game(I guess) with Grisham of Padres leading off. The second time said the opponent had an invalid lineup. 1000 stubs lost without ever playing.

The point is that if you're an "offline" player, you're good enough to do the online portion. Many "online" players are not good enough to win in online. That's why we play offline. Just offer two or three stat missions to match the 3 online stat missions. They can be harder if that's a concern. I don't care. Just want the same options.
@pscrabro_mlbts said in Showdown has got to go:
It's not like the only option is Showdown... you could skip showdown and play online for the points or skip online and play showdown. I like showdown a lot better than moments. They are never going to just giveaway 99s.... you have to play a little bit to earn them.
That's fine. Just give offline stat missions, too. They can make them ten times more than offline. I don't care. Just give us the option.
I'm referring to the live series upgrades. Defense ranking is too low. 70 arm strength? 70 fielding? Bader, Mullins (among others) higher rank? Come on. I know I'm a homer, but....
Just did the McCovey daily and got 320 XP. 5th inning XP shows 100. First time I played anything since 5th inning dropped.
Title says it all. Too many average players or one year wonders ranked higher. Ridiculous. 3 year base my azz.
