MLB 15 The Show Video - Improving Diamond Dynasty
Diamond Dynasty has been a huge hit on Operation Sports this year, and I'm one of the many who has been sucked in by the mode. It's a more streamlined approach to the fantasy team concept, and taking the more straightforward approach has worked in Sony's favor. However, improvements can always be made to any mode, and so that's what we'll take a look at in this video.

Would like to see:
Expand Stat Tracking (team and player)
Allow for multiple lineups and multiple teams
Would also add the ability to join a DD tournament...have like an 8 or 16 team brackets where you win and advance, lose and you're out. Having better pay outs the further you advance.
I love the "Fan Duel" team building concept...would absolutely love that, it's an awesome idea. That would encourage you to keep player cards and change your play style from game to game. It would get you away from having to play a roster full of hall of famers. -
The stat tracking one is a really good one to me. It's weird you can really only see the "in-depth" player stats for guys on your team within a game and not in the menus.Would like to see:

Re: MLB 15 The Show Video - Improving Diamond Dynasty
I'd like to see Community Challenges disappear and instead just give people more stubs for a win in the random h2h matchups. Maybe even have a tier system where you get more stubs based on the rating/division of your opponent. I feel like this would put more emphasis on actually playing the game and "winning"Comment

Re: MLB 15 The Show Video - Improving Diamond Dynasty
They have already gotten rid of the good community challenges yesterday morning. And I disagree with that. It's not like it's causing prices to skyrocket because guys could get a ton of stubs from doing these challenges. You would only get like 5 or 600 stubs for doing a challenge completely (99 attempts) if you had some collections completed.I'd like to see Community Challenges disappear and instead just give people more stubs for a win in the random h2h matchups.

Re: MLB 15 The Show Video - Improving Diamond Dynasty
People were getting more than that for the community challenges. With about 20 collections completed, I was getting about 2,000 stubs and 10 cards for going 2/3 of the way through a triple play challenge.They have already gotten rid of the good community challenges yesterday morning.

Still it's not like it's destroying the market and inflating the prices of all the top guys like Trout, Williams, etc. I don't see the problem with it honestly. And most of the time the cards are crap anyways unless you are just starting out.Comment

Re: MLB 15 The Show Video - Improving Diamond Dynasty
The market is resilient regardless (and it would deflate prices more than inflate them). I think the bigger issue is more just the sheer number of cards that get grabbed via these methods. If you're getting roughly 2,000 Stubs and 10 cards each time, that's a ton of stuff to get in just 15 minutes.I won't ask for Christmas or birthday gifts if you subscribe to the Operation Sports Newsletter (Not Just Another Roster Update).

Re: MLB 15 The Show Video - Improving Diamond Dynasty
Yea that's true, you get a lot of cards. But they are not good cards. I have done these challenges like 50 times and only got a diamond glove and then some decent silvers and the rest bronzes and commons.The market is resilient regardless (and it would deflate prices more than inflate them).

Re: MLB 15 The Show Video - Improving Diamond Dynasty
I mean there are plenty of cases of good cards being found as well. I think what I would ask then is if you get such crap, why keep doing it anyway?I won't ask for Christmas or birthday gifts if you subscribe to the Operation Sports Newsletter (Not Just Another Roster Update).

Re: MLB 15 The Show Video - Improving Diamond Dynasty
TBH the stubs because I just started playing a week ago and the crap cards are somewhat helping me complete the collections. And I haven't started to flip cards because I don't know what cards should I take my chances on.Comment

Re: MLB 15 The Show Video - Improving Diamond Dynasty
Fair enough, thanks for the back and forth! Also I'm probably put out a Marketplace video in the not too distant future so maybe that will help you out.I won't ask for Christmas or birthday gifts if you subscribe to the Operation Sports Newsletter (Not Just Another Roster Update).

Re: MLB 15 The Show Video - Improving Diamond Dynasty
Yea it definitely would. Also I hate that you can't sell the guys you used to complete a collection. I understand the legends because that would overpopulate the market. Because I finished the Rockies collection and have no use for CarGo now and could make a decent profit from him.Comment

Re: MLB 15 The Show Video - Improving Diamond Dynasty
I feel like though you have to lock those guys in Collections, otherwise what was the point of spending the Stubs and so on to get the Legend? You could just then turn around and get all your Stubs back and go right in to the next Collection with now the "best" card already at your disposal in the form of the Legend. It would make finishing all Collections mostly easy, and since Collections is really the only long-term goal, it would sort of hurt that aspect of things.Yea it definitely would.
