FULL ARCHIVED STREAM: https://www.kamcord.com/v/phgZxKZgDL2

COMMUNITY EVENT: #DRAFTFRENZY starts 6/21. Stay tuned on DevineInspired's twitter!

NOTES:

• Special Finals RttC Scrimmage on Tuesday 6/21/16 with new "International Friendly" times.
• Full regular RttC next week but with "changes" now that Finals are over.
• Keep your RP Tresure Chests full as Skybox will continue weekly throughout the summer with unique prizes planned.
• Event featuring San Antonio Spurs coming up "soon"!
• Event featuring Philadelphia 76ers coming up later this summer with Allen Iverson or Julius Erving as main prize!
• Don't plan on Theme Cards being introduced Auction House for this app.
• Wild Cards implementation most likely will be adjusted in future apps if it remains part of game.
• Player v. Player RCs was a test to see how community likes them after the initial special Kobe vs. Shaq event. Most likely won't return in future apps regularaly.
• Team v. Team RC events featuring yet-to-be-featured teams (Yay, Bucks?!?) will continue throughout summer after the special Finals event(s).
• RCs in future events may have algorithm adjusted (weighted towards games played by top players) to help decide winning team.
• Michael Jordan and Andre Iguodala got base Playoff cards rather than RttC PO card because he wanted them to have cards in the draft board/AH pool.
• Yes, RttC makes money for CD, and top theme cards SHOULD be limited to diversify decks and keep event cards valuable. (ie. just like in any game or trading card set, you're not meant to have every best/rare card without a heavy price... time and/or money.)
• Internet Community Vote may be implemented at some capacity in future apps to determine teams in events.
• Packs could be revised in future apps to make them more worthwhile according to users' deck tier.
• Energy Cards are sorted to the bottom/end when drafted in Extras Packs.
• Record Setters are limited as season rewards so players don't progress in-game too fast... trying to entice users to keep playing to the end and not stop because there's nothing else to do/accomplish.
• Event Card stats could be increased to compete with The Greats cards throughout the summer.
• The Greats pack was introduced to cater to paying players who want that extra advantage... BTC cards as best in game and free to obtain were created as a counter.
• Ultimate Recipe confirmed to eliminate Epic card when bar is filled to 30%. Other recipes under construction with that feature. Other changes in BTC recipes most likely won't be changed in this app, but possibly in future apps.
• No plans for Flash RCs... deemed unpopular by community.
• Stat-charging to be reviewed in future apps.
• Trading feature most likely won't be implemented with Auction House serving same features... to prevent trading cards between multiple accounts.
• Don't expect All-PO card events in the future as to prevent devaluation of PO cards currently in users' decks.

.... and many more tidbits during 2.5 hour session on NWGamedad's name, CD history and behind-the-scenes looks, ladder vs. daily goals, card picture selection, possible future BTC recipe advancements, addressing common FAQs, Danan's personal favorites, and others if you want to stream it while grinding this weekend!

Post below your thoughts and suggestions, and maybe NWGamedad will answer here or in a possible future stream!

Re: DevineInspired Q&A Live Kamcord Stream with NWGamedad Recap

Thanks everyone for support and Danan for agreeing to do the Q&A session with DevineInspired!

I caught the live stream at the tail end when the 4th quarter was being mentioned so had to wait until Download-on-Demand was available to catch the beginning. Loved how many interesting nuggets & easter eggs were being dropped, and great to have more detailed explanations beyond the usual twitter and forum posts!

Of course, this leads to possible gifs and snippets of you and your answers being poster on the Internet for eternity for better or worse now that there's a clean source if anyone gets around to it!

Then again, you and Brad can always counter that by making quick videos answering FAQs and announcing PSAs and such to complement the weekly event promo videos...

Again, kudos for the session and game, and I look forward to seeing what's in the future! At the very least, I'll be a lurking casual loyal player in future editions as life unfolds!

Dude - stop being a negative nancy and enjoy the game. It's a game and Cat Daddy is a business. Without Cat Daddy there is no game. Without $ Cat Daddy can't pay its developers. Stay positive and enjoy what we have and give constructive feedback.

Thank you to CAMEagle and NWGameDad for supporting the 2k community with this info. @NWGameDad, can we expect loyalty rewards this year at some point. Not asking you to commit to a date...just want to know that will be a thing again this year.

Cheers! Happy 4th of July (if you're in the US if not enjoy your weekend)!

We may or may not find out for another couple of weeks for various reasons...

With Danan being in-and-out for the next few weeks, I did catch the relatively huge DLC download Friday... it's most likely for the upcoming Skybox and events for at least next week maybe two...

If anything, all they announced on July 1st last year were the Loyalty tiers with the rewards coming a bit later... maybe this year they'll announce the tiers and actual rewards at the same time so people can decide if it's worth it or not...
