4 games with him and i have a 8 era. I crush him when i face him.
Your game history doesn't show that you even have him, or that you've gone up against him. You need to find something else to do, besides jacking around with another user. Last thing this forum needs is more bs, especially flat out lying.

I kinda agree, most people play this for 6-7 months and have never seen or used Babe Ruth since SDS paid for his rights, it’ll be the same thing next year. Some people wanna feel super special and grind every card to tell you how easy and free it is...3500 hours later. I’d rather SDS unlock all the players early but force people to choose between them without the ability to unlock them all until a much much later date. That way we’d actually get line up diversity with great cards day 1.
So how do you propose to make the SS Alex Gordon's type cards useable? How do any of those cards become usable when you can get 99's? How do you propose SDS drive stub sales throughout the year when there is no excitement of new cards? How do you keep people engaged?
Because you guys are still struggling to grasp the very simple concept (Which SDS already does to a minor degree) that you don’t GET a team full of 99s the first week, there just AVAILABLE the same way Kershaw Ryan and others were this past year. Just add more choices, and room for choices to be made.
Alex Gordon was useable for people that wanted to use him. He was quite easily replaceable at anytime. I would have liked to use SS Bautista or Edwin anytime before 9 months of the game had passed, why not make Edwin, Gordon, Goldschmidt and the other mediocre SS available at the same time? You can choose yours I can choose mine. I don’t need mine, yours, and 15 different everyone else’s. There’s no reason to make some cards like those available 9 months later in the 9th inning 100 star choice pack and Alex Gordon the first month. Some people’s teams didn’t even get a SS for half the year how is that fun. Just let people choose what’s the harm?
Why release Gossage and the final Moments extreme segment with a month left? If anyone could have beat those missions in the first month with regular diamonds or golds they should be rewarded. People would rather sit around and wait for another treat from SDS is the issue. Jump, roll over, play dead, then these 120 games and collect your SS Vlad.
That's not the point. You are not getting our concept.
If we can PICK any player, why would anyone pick the Alex Gordon type cards? If you can pick Babe Ruth or an example Edwin, why would anyone pick Edwin?'
If every card available first day, people are obviously only going to pick the Babe Ruth's of the world.
Lol yeah just add Babe Ruth into the mediocre SS pool I was talking about. I’m crazy, I thought he go in the higher tier choice with the other 99s but you probably forgot about them because your taking Babe over Chipper Griffey Williams Thomas Gagne Gwynn Henderson Trout Kershaw Rivera Alomar Schmidt and everyone else. It’s strange, it’s almost like the decision becomes harder the MORE cards you add to the choice not the opposite.
And stop calling a thread you didn’t start and an idea you don’t agree with “Our concept”
Why wouldn't we add him to the pool? Your idea is ALL cards being obtainable right away correct? The only difference is we have a choice and can only select a few a a time. So those few that get picked will be the obvious Babe Ruth's of the world.
And once again, you failed to address "How do you propose SDS drive stub sales throughout the year when there is no excitement of new cards?" I know why you are ignoring it's there, you have no answer, so just continue to pretend it's not there.
And when I say "our concept" I mean Trucker and mines concept of why it doesn't work, not the concept of the OP. But you knew that, just wanted to sound smart. It's ok, if it makes you feel good, you do you,
Lol why’re you so obsessed with me making SDS more stubs? I ignored it because I don’t need to come up with a strategy for SDS to make more money off stubs and bring it to you for approval. If I really needed SDS to make more money on stubs I’d suggest adding contracts, historic jerseys, position change consumables, training consumables and everything else EA does. Maybe we just need to pay 1000 stubs for each conquest game. Should we add more tax on the market? 20% 30% That would really help them fill there pockets no? Are these all great ideas? No, not everything needs to be based off making SDS more money to buy player rights so they can constantly release them in February again and again.
And nobody said everyone’s available and we get to ChoOsE A FEW eAcH TiMe lmao. You really want me to have said I want Mays Griffey and Ruth day one but I didn’t. At any point. You just keep making stuff up for some weird reason only you and Trucker have the brain power to comprehend.
Stop playing dumb. It's not about you coming up with ways to make SDS stubs, but rather seeing it from their point of view. They're going to do everything they can do to maximize profit, which as a business they have every right to do. Now whether that means putting all the cards up front, or trickling them out over the year, is only something they can determine.
I've got almost 4 million of them. Why on earth would SDS ever let me carry them over, as that just costs them money. Instead of just seeing things from your perspective, you need to try to see it from their's. They're a business, and as a business, their goal is to maximize revenue. The day it makes financial sense for them to let stubs be carried from one year to the next, is the day they allow that.
Friggin hilarious. You get to do the beta, something most on here really want to do, and you think you might get to start the game with a stacked team and stubs in pocket. You'll get a gold card in appreciation, and you'll like it.
Ever think that maybe this game isn't for you. Instead of asking them to make showdowns into a snoozefest, maybe you should put in a lot more practice.
Cold day in hell. I don't why this has to keep on coming up every two or three months. Might as well lock this thread now; it's just going to turn into the same pissing match that it always does.
@Capt_awesome34 said in Legends:
Jose Fernandez never I believe the drug use will keep him out
I don't remember seeing Santana , Juan or Alfonso in the game.
Ain't going to be the drug use, but that he was responsible for other's deaths during the drug use. And yeah, he'll never be back in the game and rightfully so. Can't believe there are those who want him back in the game. His athletic abilities have been more than canceled out by his actions.

I put in plenty of practice. That’s not the point. There is no need for your sarcastic remarks. Not asking them to make it a “snoozefest”! You have your experience and I have mine. Just because your awesome and want everyone to know don’t hijack the thread with your nonsense.
You ever think you are useless to the conversation not meant for your highness? Get a life!The game should be at a level that EVERYONE can play having some sort of chance at success. Not just the ones who think they can put people down that may not be as great as they are!
Oh, but I'm not that good. I'm just sick of everything being dumbed down, so people can feel good about themselves. You obviously totally suck at this game, and that's alright. Not everyone can be good at something; some aren't good at anything. I am tired of seeing participation trophies. If you're not good, then own it. Don't ask standards to be lowered, so you're not bottom rung. I see this [censored] all the time in schools.

I assume it will open on the 13th when the early access begins, but not sure.
Will open as soon as servers go live on the 13th at 12:00 AM. (Fingers crossed there is no server issues though)
12 AM Pacific, but 10 PM Central on the 12th.
Fingers crossed even more that there isn't a market range inhibitor in place, like there was with 19. Stubs could still be made, but it wasn't until they removed it (at least for me), that the stubs flowed in.

@ixiXSolidXixi said in Will Chapman fall under 100:
He will go down eventually!! Sooner or later they will give this packs away.
It's going to be a while. Jansen took forever to go down last year. This pack looks a lot like the special packs Jansen was in last year, so it could be a few months. I went ahead and bought Chapman at 149, as I didn't want to wait months.

What's with all the love for Jason Kendall? He was a good catcher but 97?
Idk ask Joe Adell how he has a 99.
I've made myself overtly clear on those farces. So not only that, but we are rewriting history just for lineup diversity/new content.
It's a joke to see Feller given a 93 for his 1946 season when he led the league in W, GS, CG, SO, K, IP, and was 6th in MVP and had a WAR of 10 (pre CY awards). Yet Burnett is given a 97 for nothing more than being the only player they could think of to represent the Marlins TA. Best he ever had was a 4.5 WAR in one season.
Now we get a 97 Kendall who admittedly is much better than Burnett, but Bench is a 93?
Comparing a card that dropped in April compared to now is a little silly. Now if Bench got a 93 FOTF and Kendall’s is a 97... that’s a reason to question it. But it’s comparing apples to oranges when you compare cards that are released at different times. It’s like judging Bench’s 2nd best card as his final version.
It always amazes me that people complain about this. We all know that any mode like this is a progressive model and that the newest card is always gonna be better than a month old card. Regardless of who had the better career
Then they need to release current players, and those who are moderately newer, earlier in the cycle. Giving some scrubs cards, because they had a great week or month, totally dishonors the all-time greats. 99s and upper 90s should go to those that deserve hof status, and possibly some who could have gotten there, but didn't because of injury. There are far too many 99s in this game, and I don't see it getting any better.

@squishiesgirl said in Market Prices:
Market Prices are pretty high right now..do you think they'll continue to climb tomorrow...or are pretty much at the peak right now?
Market goes up when there is no new content that requires stubs and goes down when it does because people liquidate stubs to buy the new stuff. Team Affinity will have not bearing as they are non stub rewards.
Whenever they have their next content drop of a significant nature requiring stubs the market will have 2 or 3 days being down and then will slowly go back up, never normally to it’s previous but usually close. That is the cycle.Aren't prices expected to go up for TA as people pay "Buy Now" prices for exchanges?
Only for the cards that will be used for exchange. I expect to see a drop for most other cards, from people financing their exchanges. I know that I'm looking to further advance my collection of player cards tomorrow, in hopes they do drop.

@KyleS779 said in Bruh, BIAH Packs are awful:
Pulled Bellinger earlier today out of a BIAH pack.
Good pull. I'd like to see another one of those.
Just pulled Harper out of the free biah from conquest. Better yet, out of the 13 free regular packs I pulled Verlander and Freeman. Still not going to spend the market price for Chapman though; I'll wait until he hits 100.
@raesONE said in Reliever Market:
Chapman will over time, because more Ducks on the Pond packs will be released. Dibble however was a headliner and therefore his supply is scarce and demand is high since he's arguably the best reliever in the game. I actually expect his price to increase over time.
I don't know. They already released previous headliner packs, and you know they'll do it again, and again. That and the fact he can still be pulled out of regular packs, could mean he's a 30,000 card by October or November.
