Poor management of Tourney Rewards - get it together, OOTP

HondoLane · 10-12-2022, 02:29 PM

Yesterday, I made it to the finals in the Tuesday Gold Cap.

The reward for first place was 450K Barry Larkin 100
The reward for second place was 10K Mike Scott 99

This Mike Scott card shouldn't exist. I mean, really, wtf? What kind of tournament reward parity is that. When you make a horrible 99 card and then make it a reward in the second series of tourney cards, you're going to have this happen every time he is a reward. This is a problem that just should not exist.

These kinds of things are truly what make players quit playing the game. How can someone not feel screwed when you mess up the reward cards this bad? LOL. This is INDEFENSIBLE to have that terrible of a 99 reward.

It's better than when they have people tanking to get the second place reward cause it is much better than the first place one.

If you wanted the better card you should have won.

There are a lot of high diamond tourney rewards that aren't worth much. What was 3rd place offering? A low diamond is often more valuable than the high diamond because there is a tournament for low diamond whereas high diamond plays nowhere. They need an option to take the card or a cash buyout that is in accordance with 2nd prize of the weekly tournament where only PP are on offer as rewards. (The easiest way would be to make the QS value of the high diamond equal to that 2nd prize). Or they could just pay attention to the L10 and offer low diamonds as 2nd prize and high diamonds as 3rd prize.

But, at least you have a ticket to PTCS #5 practically guaranteed.

Like feedback for the developers... like making your 2nd place tourney cards better? Don't comment on my posts then. They aren't for snowflakes like you, Ty.

Of course the 3rd place offering was better, yeah.

I was happy when I saw I'd gotten second place and happy when I saw I won Mike Scott. I had just never looked at the card - horrible stats, no value. How could a card that pathetic be that high of a reward? It makes no sense.

Thanks, man.

We have some very sensitive and self-righteous dudes on here

You'd think I was cussing up a storm and threatening to quit the way some people react.

The card will be worth more when it gets added to a mission You should hold it,

should be taught manners before being allowed to post publicly.

On my block list you go, as I have neither the time, the lifespan, the patience, or interest in dealing with someone who's entire repertoire is anger.
