Edit: It is actually 2 hits in a game. Regarless, it sucks.
Marginal use for CVC and Season/Bonus/Prime games. Rather blah.
Edit: I would love Kaline or Garvey, but not real positions of need for me, and I am trying not to blow what lxp I have saved. C, 3B, SS are my weakest links right now, and any 420 prime offered at those is not really worth the resources to level as an upgrade on what I already have...
2. I really implore any Glu representative to read what I bolded above. This is absolutely NOT going to make this game better in the long run. If you're gonna lower the availability of the resource needed to upgrade Legends, then make the Legends a bit more Legendary in terms of their skills (30 points higher than primes? C'mon...). Whenever we have to choose the devils we don't know (future Legends) over the ones we do (Garvey, Kaline) because a resource (lxp) is in very low supply, you're risking losing our attention while we wait.
3. Please also remember the lower level players who are highly involved in the game sit back and plan their future strategy based on what the current top dogs are doing. What I'm hearing from a high-level player is "I'm not even going to bother because I already have better players than this and I'm not going to spend lxp because it's so rare I have to take an aim-small-miss-small mentality." I'll likely check out earlier in this game than most of the top guys here will. That date draws nearer if I see a frustrating Glu-imposed roadblock coming ahead.
I have 90k lxp, and fieldpass. I am in gold. I also have Cooperstown Baines, Keeper Ichiro, POTM Alvarez, 420 max Judge, and 420 max Ketel Marte.
What would you guys do? I was thinking about moving to platinum tomorrow (470 bg's right now), but I am short on serviceable bxp options at a few positions, after I purged my inactives a couple weeks ago. Because of that,I will probably wait on the move, now.
Edit: What would you do regarding leveling Kaline.
Any well-reasoned argument in either direction would be greatly appreciated.
I moved to Platinum a couple of weeks ago so here’s my thoughts on the experience -
1) cost to level players goes up considerably. If I was still Gold I would have more Primes capped and be sitting pretty for Royale and WOH HOF. As it is I’ve only got one capped. One at P8 and the rest sitting inactive. Goodrum should be a beast for me but is currently inactive.
2) Cycling WOH classic seemed to be easier for me. When I made the jump and played my first WOH classic I had 2 RHB and 2 LHB BXP players capped.
3) my goal in making the jump to platinum was to move up as quickly as possible to get to Diamond and be able to cycle Diamond for the gold. With that in mind I had over 1k bonus games in the bank. I went from P1 to P9 with only 1 BXP pitcher capped. Success rate in bonus games was pretty good.
4) Season mode in Gold for my All capped team (3 primes capped) was a good source of PXP. Now with an capped batting lineup (1 prime capped and 1 prime P8) and two capped BXP pitchers I’m under .500 in season mode.
I think it all depends on what you are wanting to accomplish. For me it was cycling diamond. But I’m coming to the realization with the cost and availability of resources my lineup is going to have to be completely redone. Cost of BXP players are through the roof so new players getting capped through WOH cycling and weekend bonus players leveled through FP discount and 30% discount clubs is most likely where most of my players will come from.
As for lxp, I think it is around 100k to go from b1-g10, but I have the 20% discount from fieldpass, so I should be good to cap. I would be lxp broke afterwards, though... I like the skills, though lhp and/or late-inning would definitely be preferable, so I think I am going for it.
Thanks for the advice.
All the stats accrued were at b1, so not reflective of his potential, by any means.
