The Conquest has 2 repeatables
Capture all strongholds for Finest Choice pack 3
Conquer all territories for a Headliners
That's not correct, mate.
The only repeatable goal is goal 8, the Headliners Pack.
They switched it after release. The first drop had choice pack 3 as repeatable in the description. Now the repeatable tag is gone.
That makes sense. There was no way they were going to give us unlimited 50k packs.
Marte, Skubal, yordan and Albie’s, ones gotta be henchman, one finest collection reward, one a Chase pack and one replaces dingler?
Yordan is in the player program, which is a pleasant surprise.
Marte fits the chase card profile. Switch hitter that everyone loves.
Honestly, solid player program. Feels like the best out of the 3.
San Diego Studio once again gives a big middle finger to the Reds
Wait until you see Elly in the Chase Pack tomorrow.
There better not be anymore exchange players.
As upset as I am with the choices they've made to move more towards the 2K model, this is what has made me the most angry about the game this year.
We are in November and still do not have 99s for so many legends and fan favorite cards.
How do we have a dozen PCA and Bryce Harper cards and not a 99 Hank Aaron?
It's infuriating.
5 pxp missions required for Miller (either online or offline)
1026 w/Live Series
1027 w/Moonshot
1028 w/Topps Now
1029 w/2B
1030 w/Switch Hitters
Personally, I'm fine with this. Just need to play a few games.
Willie Mays has been my most consistent and favorite of the bunch so far.
Roberts and Buchholz are also right up there.
Going to be trying out Wood, Bichette and Santana tonight.
Sheffield has been the only card that I haven't enjoyed using during my mini seasons run.
To be fair, in my mind DQ was never about it being 'easy' or not, its about spending an hour slogging through it and failing your 75% roll and having to start from scratch all over again.
Sound like they made this one like the starter one at least so there shouldnt be failed rolls.
I hate DQ, but this was extremely easy and not very time consuming.
This was a lot like the introductory one. Takes 20 minutes max. Mini challenges are easy and a direct route to the stadium gives you a 97% chance on Veteran.
I have a spooky feeling that we will need to complete DQ to earn the Sammy Sosa card.

That’s crazy. It’s like a chase card with worse odds. Strange experiment this time of year.
This is a test run. The more money people spend, the more we'll see this.
The SDS2K era is about to begin. Get your wallet ready.
This has become my biggest pet peeve in moments. Please SDS, let us be able to control the baserunners.
3 times I failed that Sam Antonacci mission because the guy at second wouldn't go home.
People on Twitter Complaining about No Elly.
Those people have not been paying attention if they think SDS is giving out a free switch-hitting shortstop that everyone wants to use.
This is why I knew it wasn't going to be Elly.
Why give us a free 99 Elly when they can make money off it?
That being said, still some fun cards in there and Jensen has a nice swing.
And the player selection did not seem slow or sluggish at all
If they have finally fixed this, that gets a huge Thank You from me.
@skywalker_25_PSN You also only hear how bad this game is but you still play it...I play mostly online and ive been disconnected one time. Out of maybe 100 games I've come across 2 or 3 cheaters, but that doesn't make online not fun. You should just give it a try for yourself and see if you like it instead of listening to people who only complain on here...
I've played online a few times in previous years, it was not a pleasant experience.
@rubicante23_PSN people are scared of losing. Its just a game, win or lose it had zero influence on your real life; and if it does, you need help.
It's not that at all.
All I do is hear online players complain anout online play.
- Cheaters
- Dashboarders
- Match ups against superior players
- Disconnects
- Complaints about some magic logic keeping bad players in the game
- Complaints about good contact not being rewarded and bad contact getting hits.
- Etc
As a general rule I would say when it comes to actual gameplay we offline players are more content and happy than most online gamers.
ALL OF THIS. All I hear is complaints about the online play, why would I want to play it? Plus, I feel like making more people play online is only going to make things worse for gameplay if the servers already can't handle it.
Why can't SDS do something along the lines of making it so if you play offline line you need to get 4 or 5 times the amount of stats as an online player? That way the online player is getting their stuff quicker, can play online and still make their stubs while the offline player has to grind more.
So tired of people saying "just play online, it's easy missions". Because that is entirely not the point. I wouldn't care if they had a mission that said, "have 1 plate appearance in an online mode". The POINT is that they are forcing it. Completely tone-deaf. You force a player to play a way they do not want to, they will move on to other games. Between an XBox account and a gaming laptop with a Steam account, there are way more options for my $70 next year. Just a shame there is no competition for MLB games.
Exactly.
Again, my biggest issue with this program is that they made it seem like it was going to be attainable for everyone (online & offline players) and it isn't.
The question to ask yourself is: do you want Zack Britton and Acuna?
If not, then why be sad. There’s no forcing going on.
Not necessarily, but the 75K in stubs and XP would be nice.
Just felt like false marketing. Made it seem like it would be something achievable for all online and offline players.
Obviously they went away from the play how you want and now they're forcing you to play online
Ranked, Weekend Classic, Events, Battle Royale, Multiplayer Programs. There are plenty of online modes for exclusive rewards. To advertise a program and these rewards like it will be achievable for all and force online gameplay (just to finish the first tier) shows you how dumb and out of touch SDS is. They've $hown their true color$ this year and if I hadn't invested 500+ hours and a few dollars into this game already, I'd quit now.
I was about 85% sure I wasn't going to buy the game next year, this has pushed me to 100% certain I won't.
I will say, this June countdown has peaked my interest a little. Curious to see how all this stuff is earned.
