    DD Created Player / What's your overall rating?

    They weren't kidding when they said it would take much more cards to bring him to 99.

    I've been feeding mine non stop and he's still hungry, little bugger.
    Anyway, mine's a 88 at the 4 spot (2B). But his hitting is very lacking (mid 60's)

    Was wondering what your overall ratings were, 4 days into official release.

    -------
    sidenote:

    Speaking of, was wondering if it's the same as last year where you can just play any position.
    It seems it is, but they do penalize your player for playing out of position (Mine is a 2B, although I don't remember choosing that ??.)
    Does EVERYONE start out as a 2B? Is there a way to change it?
    And yeah, I've tried swapping him in with a catcher etc, doesn't seem to work. I'm probably missing something.

    Yeah i have done 6 total collections and fed my guy the crappy cards. He is an 89 2b. I will be putting him at catcher eventually, but he is only an 82-83 catcher and i have McCann

      89, 2B. His contact rating isn't all that great but his power is decent. Funny enough as soon as I started putting him in games I started winning them.

        85 at 2B

        Gold equipment buffs raise him up more. But this year you do have to feed more to get him to 99. That is for certain.

            I have McCann and I cannot hit with him worth a crap.


            Anyway, on topic, I have not even created my player in DD yet.


            If I create him and feed him some of my duplicates will those eventually count towards the mission goals or will it only count cards you feed after you get the mission?

              Only feed him the duplicates. You have to have every player in your roster to complete a collection. After you get the final reward, like Blyleven for the Twins, feed the unwanted cards to your created player

                You're doing exactly what I'm doing. I'm filling collections and using the bottom dwellers to feed mine. That method helps him grow fast. I also will settle him at catcher eventually when his hitting levels out.

                well imagine that, I need to follow your example. I wanted mine to have at least a contact rating of 75+ before I did that but I'm sure you're better off just playing him all the time.

                I agree, I've found most the 80s catcher don't perform well, except for FB Saltalamachia which I plan to use more.

                I would still feed the player before the mission goals because it takes a ton of cards for him to level nicely. That way you're not behind the curve so to speak.


                So it seems everyone starts at 2B. Shame, would of been nice to choose a primary position.
                And yeah, I remember during the Sony deep dives, they said "around 10x more cards than last year" to level to 99. From what I saw that seems right on target.

                  So my cousin started a guy and he's a P.

                  I thought everyone started out as a 2B. He can't seem to change it officially either.

                    you're stuck with the 2B label no matter what. Maybe they'll patch it.

                    very smart, I should of done that. I found out later it's much harder to level out/feed to get those legends. But it's not that bad, still managed to unlock the conquest reward cards. When I started doing the missions, my guy was a 99.
                    But yeah, it's probably wiser to wait until you get mission unlocks before feeding.

                    On the other hand, it's incredibly rewarding to play with your dynasty player when he's an overall gold or better.

                      Whatever the default is. I have not fed him a single card.


                      Until I have the missions unlocked to feed him cards from a specific team I won't bother.

                        That's specifically why I'm asking, my cousin made his and he's a pitcher. He doesn't even have the option for fielding attributes.

                        I didn't believe him so I had him send me a picture and sure enough, his first position(next to his guy's name) is P.

                          Hey anyone know if you can feed flashbacks you earn from missions to the DD player? When I go to the feed section they show up, but have a black zero on the card, what does that mean?

                            then Pitcher or 2b are the only options... fact remains you can't change from 2b to what you really want your player to be.

                            I suppose it means you dont' have one (?) never seen that happen, it usually selects only the cards you have in stock.

                            You CAN feed a FB player, but why would you? Even if you don't use those cards, they are more valuable than the fodder you can use to feed your player. That's just my opinion.
