    Re: The game just gave me all division mission cards

    Personally, I think consumers should be able to assume that the game is functioning as intended and not be required to validate whether something is a glitch or not. This game has hidden missions that will suddenly pop up for redemption. If a player sees this, should he validate that he did, in fact, blow X many save opportunities before redeeming? It's really not that much of a stretch to assume that requirements changed or that the player somehow triggered it. If a player goes into the pack store and sees that packs cost only 500 stubs, does he need to verify there is a sale going on before buying them? And it's not like the info is that easy to find; The Show has already proven its lack of willingness to communicate with customers - just check their twitter feed.

    I agree that it might be obvious for more intense players, but for a casual player, it might not appear like a glitch. Besides, there have been several other glitches in this game, such as when the post game rewards showed the last card as a gold player, but gives me a common card instead. I'd rather the devs work on fixing the other remaining game-play issues than spending time trying to figure out how to take back cards from the few players that happened to benefit from this glitch. In the end does it really matter if you're up against an all-Diamond team if those players are flashbacks or from the live series? Every year in DD teams quickly all look the same, even before this glitch there have been several threads about playing the same all-diamond teams.

    They'll do what their going to do but I think they should just move on and show the customers that they are addressing the real game-play issues and not just those instances where in-game currency is concerned.

        A glitch is a glitch. If you got the cards then that's on SDS, it's their fault. Y'all didn't do anything to bypass getting them. I have no interest in any of those cards. I don't grind innings or do collections. You should be able to keep the cards. As much as it might suck to go against a team like that, eventually in a couple months a lot of people will have teams that look like that anyway. I'll get a lot of satisfaction beating one of those teams lol

          lol You just want to keep the awesome cards you got the wrong way.

            It's a punch in the face for those of us who are legitimately trying to complete collections to earn rewards.

              I disagree. They need to take those cards away. Ramone said they were working on it anyway. I have Jackie Robinson legitimately. I spent real money and a ton of time flipping cards. This is the only game i am playing right now. It cost me 2 million stubs to complete the whole set. And now if someone was new to the game and on on last night and had 30k they now have all these great players as well

                Is it legit to buy stubs and then complete collections? Is it legit to grind innings away with a friend just bunting for outs? I don't really see how others having something or obtaining something in another way affects how you achieve collections.

                  We all know the right thing to do would be for Sony to just take the L for us all and give us all the players we want for free.

                    I think those two examples are a little different from what happened yesterday.

                    Just to get an idea where I'm coming from I haven't spent any money in the game and I bought the Standard Edition. I earned my stubs via marketplace (no bunt farming). It may take me a month or two to earn Reggie Stocker. I have two more collections to go!

                      I don't think I'll be venturing into online head to head until they take away these people's cards.

                      Somebody let us know in this thread once things are back to normal.

                        The people redeeming the collections aren't the one's punching you in the face

                            I'd be ok with this. I know a couple of my friends and I have spent the stubs from the rewards; it'd probably take awhile to go through and roll back the transactions everyone made with the stubs they received from this glitch. For example, I bought deGrom with some of my stubs and the ones from the missions. Do they remove deGrom then refund me the difference in stubs between his price at the time and the total stubs from the missions?

                            I fully expected them to remove the players from the get-go. I had my fun with them a couple games against the Yetis on Legend then stashed them away to grind more innings.

                              Maybe so in the lower divisions, but in the upper divisions where the competition is cutthroat and people are looking for any possible shortcut they can take, I'm sure this glitch was widespread.

                              I'm in the low 1700s and the first (and last) game I played post-glitch was against a guy who obviously abused the missions bug.

                              So like I said, no more online head to head for me until they take these people's cards away.

                              Also keep in mind that this is the second time this year that Stocker and co. have been obtainable via an exploit. The first week this game was out there was another bug that gave people the division collection rewards for only doing one team per division.

                                Their cards weren't taken away though, right?

                                I hardly even gone into H2H since I got these guys. I've just been grinding against the Yetis and having fun playing with them, since it's unlikely I ever would have gotten them to begin with.

                                I've played six H2H games with my already almost all-diamond team since it happened (I'm a 1620 player) and I haven't run into anyone who has used them yet.

                                But I can understand way up there where everyone is freaking really good it being an issue.

                                I truly think the amount of people who got to take advantage of this is relatively small though. I'd bet it wasn't more than a few thousand players. On the subreddit it was noted that when it happened, which wasn't during prime hours, there was only 18K or so people online and the glitch was only up for 5-10 minutes.
