    Re: MyTeam Mobile Discussion: Part 2 (Please Read the First Post Before Posting)

    So basically there's no reason to play rc/rttc since the greats will beat them. Only game mode worth playing now is going to be btc since they're the strongest. At least now I'll never have to buy any game nights or spend all my time making top 100. Unless event cards will eventually beat the greats packs what's the point in playing anything other than btc? I sure can't think of one.

      That sure sounds like the Hinkie-76ers process...go all or nothing to get the best player(s)!

      I'm pretty close to this stage as I've played the most BTC games this past week since launch (still probably won't open 1st ultimate pack until June), and going for events cards is so taxing. Saving RP for Skybox exclusives would be in the budget then lol.

      CD is still banking on collectors making due via events and packs to make sure their seasons and top 25 remain competitive... especially those users without patience or time to consistently hit BTC.

      We'll see if Greats end up being main prize after Finals in June, and if some modern/current players make the cut into the original pool of NBA's Top 50 players voted 20 years ago.

        Sure is delightful when you're doing the ultimate domination goal and you win 3/4 quarters...and the one lost quarter is to some stat charged bull****.

          As long as you aren't too far into RttC, win all quarters and it will count towards that goal.

            Yeah I do that but that's only 4 wins towards the goal per hour. I can easily do all 50 in less than an hour when I'm not taking cheap quarter losses.

              They really need to change the recipes for BTC. I'll easily have enough points to get the ultimate before I even get my first enhancement needed, let alone 4 different epic ones. Who thinks of these recipes? I haven't gotten an epic one in weeks, how the hell am I supposed to get all 4. I know I could drop down to epic when picking to guarantee one every 2 weeks at worste, but then I have to worry about getting dupes. Seems counter productive to attempt dropping down.

                This game is really starting to turn me off it, with POTG coming and assuming they will only be available to people that pay $$, theres really no point in free players such as myself playing anymore when i won't be able to get any POTG.
                I said the same thing on a different thread, but to keep free players playing and not losing so many people, if they want to make the packs 10,000 credits per pack than that's fine. But also make it available for free players and people that dont want to spend so many $$ on it, have some ridiculous price on them like 125,000 or 150,000 RP per pack so free players can have a chance at getting them but making them pay alot more RP.

                  I understand your point and trust me I sympathize. I must however point out one thing that makes that a bit of a problem. If you made those packs obtainable for RP you'd lose out on the revenue from people buying them with real money. What incentive would a payed player, who would drop that kind of money to begin with, have to buy them if they can get them for RP. It would be a ton of lost revenue for CD. This is the end of the game cycle for this year so they are trying to cash in before this year's app is totally dead.

                    I understand it's all about money for them, but if the keep it up with how they are going at the moment, then there won't be that many players that keep going on next years app and the one after that and so on.
                    I am more saying, that they should use an RP option, but make it an absurd amount so people would think its too much and rather spend a few dollars on credits. make the pack 300,000 RP or more. It's not easy to have that amount of RP to just throw away on only a possibility of a POTG card.

                        You're right that dropping down to Epic will have a guarantee of 1 for every 14 tries... maybe dropping down to Legendary will give you a chance for multiple Epics in same 14 tries?

                        Either way, once I found out about the BTC recipes, I've stopped applying enhancements entirely to players. I have a bunch stashed, but now about those BTC points so I can actually burn some of these for a chance at the game's best cards...

                          I'm the first to admit it... People spend a ton of money, time, and attention/effort on seemingly useless things all for the moment of BLISS!

                          Maybe after the latest ban hammer, CD decided to roll out POTG earlier than expected? Especially to cash in while playoffs is in its peak before finals?

                          Ideally, players buying POTG most likely will end up in a tier of their own if using cards in QG, seasons, and BTC ~IF~ team matching is doing its job correctly and minimal loopholes are being used (untrained pros, using commons, etc.).

                          Yes, huge majority of players won't have the benefit of enjoying getting POTG via packs (events still a possibility... last year Finals MVP Igoudala was the first event POTG of many I believe), but there's still plenty to enjoy in-game without getting the "best cards via real $$ in unlimited credit packs" (remember TBT/Rookie Stars were before actually best $$ cards after Event cards but I guess one-chance per week balances everything out).

                          CD will figure out to milk this app out until Labor Day in September. As they enter year 4, they definitely have to make some decisions to not only keep most of their paying and free players, but also to attract new players from the word-of-mouth/console game/social media marketing. Things will be interesting.
