Hey so I just wanted to start this thread addressing something that's been frustrating me with this years game. I thought maybe others might share this frustration and perhaps have some info of what might be coming in later additions to the game. If not, perhaps this thread will be noticed by Devs and it will be something for them to consider more. Anyways...
I'm frustrated with the lack of incentive to play games vs your friends. There seems to be simple rewards like 100 W's etc for stubs and XP but nothing meaningful. And 99% of your stats accrued don't count towards anything. It more or less makes these games meaningless. I understand that there were those who have in the past abused the ability to play vs friends by doing "bunt grinds" and things like that to eat up missions quicker. I think that's all well and good to do something to thwart those players however doing something as drastic as it seems to be so far in 17 has rendered this game reward-free for those who enjoy playing vs friends the right way. Its fun to be competing vs a friend who needs 1 more HR with someone and be able to say not on my watch! Or to devise a 7 game series using players you're trying to grind innings with. Maybe its just me but I feel like there's zero incentive to play vs your friends this year. Nothing counts towards other missions and there aren't any meaningful missions for that mode in itself.
Sorry for the angry rant. Hopefully there's some updates moving forward.
