Card names, again

Westheim · 06-24-2019, 12:00 AM

I brought up this not-quite-a-bug-yet-still-terrible situation before, but it has gotten worse since.

Can we please make a decision on what name to give to cards? Most (all?) of the mission reward cards spell out the team name in full, when almost none of the "standard" cards do and instead give "NYM" rather than "New York Mets" f.e….

This inconsistency is annoying and ugly!

Also, so far searching for the team abbreviation brought up all the cards on the auction house (except for those already mislabeled), but now you have to search for "Mets" to bring up the special editions, too. For some teams it still works (those that use the first letters of the city, f.e. "CIN"), but again -

This inconsistency is annoying and ugly! ...and OOTP can do a whole lot better than annoying and ugly!

We can't do something about this in PT 20? Asking for a friend with OCD.
