    Unfortunately I highly doubt its the end of it as they were labeled the intro set.

      Yeah, I spotted that as well. It'll be really weird if they genuinely make these a big part of the game.

      I don't play the kind of games aimed at kids and social influencers/streamers, whatever you want to call them, but I've never played a game that attempted to buy specific people to this degree. It's really odd to me. I've seen games do fan service, but it's normally the general fandom, not just 9 specific people

        No idea why I was punishing myself with these moments.....Finally went to other modes and back to crushing breaking balls and fastballs....it seems like the difficulty in those is for sure above all star no matter what it says....

        I can't stand the black and white stuff either....my eyes all ready hate me for playing this game...

          Just something I noticed, but I’m having a easier time on many of those veteran moments since yesterday’s patch. I’m wondering if they were originally slaving off the main menu difficulty. Might be worth people trying them again. Maybe I got lucky, but they don’t feel as utterly impossible as they did before.

            I'll never do all of the moments but they came in handy last night as I was sitting at 293 programs points and looked for a couple to do to get me to 300.

            Did the Willie Mays homerun one but managed to get an inside the park HR after maybe 8 or 10 tries.

            Then I did the Rogers Hornsby one where you needed 4 total bases. I got a single and two doubles in my first attempt.

              This posey mission is ridiculous. Get an xbh finally and they walk me the rest of the game. God forbid the ai throw a ****ing strike.

                It’s every sports and competitive online game for the most part. They go out of their way to take care of steamers.

                  This is why I hate Polo Grounds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5RU4pMr2gY


                  That's considered a triple because reasons. errors, no bad throws, but a triple because "We can't have these challenges being too easy(probably)"

                    Because I absolutely hate these moments as they are currently done I haven’t done any since I finished the ridiculous Sony Partner Missions. I decided to go back to the Topps missions.
                    Bryce Harper 2 homers 3 games.

                    Game 1:
                    Walk
                    Walk
                    Walk
                    Fly out to the warning track

                    Game 2:
                    Walk
                    Double
                    Walk
                    HR (yay!)
                    Walk

                    Game 3:
                    Strike Out (all on the black)
                    Walk
                    Fly out to the warning track
                    Double
                    *Extra innings
                    Walk
                    *Still Extra Innings
                    Walk

                    **** these moments ****wasting my time. I’m 100% done with this total BS. Moments difficulty is not what it’s advertised as. Hitting missions the CPU will either walk you like crazy or paint black like DeVinci. Pitching missions the CPU will get that clutch hit no matter where you throw it. Fielding missions your lucky to get the number of outs you need even hit too you. Did they bother testing this horribly planned mode? So done. I would rather attend an insurance seminar than suffer the boredom and wasted time of moments mode.

                      Seriously **** this goddam Posey mission. I'm still stuck on this bull****. I can hit gappers with him all day on hof and legend when playing conquest or vs cpu but in the mission for the CAP C he can't hit **** all of a sudden. Making Meada look like a superstar 🙄

                        Hallelujah !!! Finally got the Posey one done after hunreds of attempts. I don't expect an easy pass but having to waste multiple hrs on one mission is just not fun for the game. Some of these take longer than a 9 inning game and that's just wrong.

                            I'm doing the Contreas one now , 2XBH in 2 games. After 2 attempts (4 games) I've been walked 10 times and hit by pitch twice lol. They're just so broken, once I'm done with the CAP catcher missions I'm not touching anymore moments again.

                              Whatever it they're giving out along with the small XP and stubs better be worth it

                              I've had no interest in even approaching these, especially what I've read

                                If it wasn't for the xp early on and the CAP upgrades these would be a complete waste of time and not worth it at all, the sony partners gives you a headliner packs but chances of you getting anything higher than silver is minimal. It makes you despise the game and SDS for producing such a poorly executed mode.
