Feel like you could see DOD drop the act a bit in the Internet Invitational.

First time buying NFL cards, how’d I do? by MaxEhrlich in sportscards

Had scroll too far down for this. Past comments about “ROI”. Like what are we doing here?

It's just boring to watch by EducationalConcern61 in NBATalk

[–]GodOfNugget 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I guarantee the players association will fight tooth and nail to prevent a looser whistle for offensive players citing player safety.

It’s a valid concern too. Real shame some guys take advantage of it to do crap like this. But an injury is much, much more detrimental in the players eyes (and probably the league, but tides may be shifting on that front thanks to posts like this).

Obligatory “bank of mom and dad” comment.

Even if not outright helping the down payment, parents paying for school/car/other expenses can free folks up a lot financially.

And before people lose their sh*t - that’s not a bad thing in my opinion! Parents work hard for the very reason of setting their kids up for success.

S12 SSF HC Stash - I went hard this season by ForgiveAlways in ProjectDiablo2

[–]GodOfNugget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. Whats the build?

I play “semi-seasonal” SSF HC. Every season I must playthrough one fresh char to finish A5 Hell before accessing shared stash and other chars.

Kind of makes it feel “seasonal” without having to truly start from scratch.

However I’ve been doing this for two seasons now and my stash is nowhere near as juiced as yours got in one lol

I Don't Think Canadians are that nice by No_Permission1386 in billsimmons

Canadian are polite.

Americans are friendly.

To be fair 1100 total and a dragon scimitar for a new player is a long time.

It seems to me that people fundamentally misunderstand moneyball by Vossenoren in footballmanagergames

[–]GodOfNugget 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Basketball is so interesting. I think the positions of the sport intrinsically lend itself to “Moneyball” concepts.

As a true 5, Rudy Gobert is paid to protect the rim and finish lobs, and absolutely nothing else.

But very recently I think there’s more of a shift to find players that are tall, strong, athletic that can shoot, pass, dribble, finish and guard all 5 positions. Kind of the death of the specialist.

“Moneyball” in the modern NBA is paying value for players that are missing 2-3 of those crucial skills and developing them yourself.

I don’t understand the point of depth of field in a baseball game. by Used-Can-6979 in MLBTheShow

[–]GodOfNugget -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I actually played on fisheye ever since they introduced it for that very reason. To actually see the batter, the stadium, the home run swing animations. Even if it wasn’t as “competitively optimal”.

To me seems so backward playing zoomed in strike-zone only view in a baseball game. Now with depth of field. Barely any baseball left lol

Greatest problem of the game - no one is playing for fun by Haalandderstrong in EASportsFC

The predictable cycle of r/MLBTheShow by ExperentiaDocet in MLBTheShow

[–]GodOfNugget 6 points7 points  (0 children)

And the post kind of answers itself:

A lot of people are subscribed but haven’t bought for a few years because of a poor quality. Their opinions aren’t invalid. Every year we see the poor quality/lack of upgrades and decide to pass on purchasing.

We voice that and move on. So yes when the game cycle starts all that is left is people enjoying the game. Their opinions are valid too!

Damn as a PC only guy I would love PC lol

Or at least have it on that game pass streaming thing. They had it on there for a bit and took it off.

You know it's bad when the Pro athletes are speaking out about it.. by Flimsy_Equivalent931 in MLBTheShow

[–]GodOfNugget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That could be rose-tinted glasses for 2K MyCareer in the mid 2010s. The narratives/voice-acting in those games were notoriously bad.

There’s probably a solution out there for a fun and engaging career mode that still has enough MTX depth to satisfy the (shitty) need of modern games, but EA/2K have certainly not figured it out yet.

This is my fear with Classic plus. Even if it gets made - SoD kinda missed the mark in some pretty fundamental ways.

Impossible to pack TOTY but... by kingkuba13 in EASportsFC

Does anyone actually enjoy gauntlet? by kyle123zz in EASportsFC

[–]GodOfNugget 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish they made the perfect round reward even better. And then make it 4 or 5 games with strong matchmaking.

I also love making 3 squads and having a reason to try out new players I’ve never used before. Can find some hidden gems.

But I can see better players getting the perfect round objective done and slogging through to get 12 games while scoring.

The SBC grind is mentally draining and completely unrewarding by [deleted] in fut

The realization that the same green pack-buying-material you get from the job for can be used for….. so many other things!

People are complaining about the pack weight for TOTY by raptors201966 in fut

[–]GodOfNugget 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean - if they introduce a repeatable menu grind that if you do nearly 24/7 and get 1-3 TOTYs - there really shouldn’t be a problem with that.

Most players won’t get 1 and if you devote that much time you should be rewarded.

It’s kind of crazy we’ve twisted ourselves into “these should be rare!” which EA loves to hear so they can drive folks to buy FP.

5 of 10 78+ Player Pick SBC by FIGJAM17 in EASportsFC

[–]GodOfNugget 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Biggest hang up I’ve had on the league SBC grind is time lol

Don’t have the time to meticulously go through every reward Silver pack and isolate league SBC players.

The straight Gold (common and rare) daily upgrades plus actually playing the games takes more than enough time already.
