Where the boys have to train for weeks to defeat the guy ruining it for everyone just so they can play the game,... grinding out these games on beginner and rookie in DD and RTTS feels like that. I’m having to put in tons of time just to make my CAP playable,....
-
Did you expect the player to be a 99 at the start. It's a grind but when the game works properly, it doesn't take long at all. My guy is 100 plus in every hitting category like contact, power and vision with a 80 plus fielding and 65 speed. That was before the game officially launched and I got to earn the stuff that I was doing.
Once it comes back, it'll go quickly to rank him up
-
Most video games I ever played you start off very weak and low leveled and have to build your way up. So nothing new to me.

I play this game every year,... the progression is SO SLOW this year,... it’s not starting low. It’s overall going from 30 to 31 after a full season. I’ve not experienced a sports game that starts you this low and progresses this slowly
No idea how you got 100 overalls when the caps are set at 50
And honestly after taking everyone’s careers away we’ve all been working on for years,... yeah, I’d expect them to make it easier to get your player leveled up

Caps are at 50s yes. The perks and loadout pkus equipment gets you higher. Getting the player to the 50 cap is simple, almost everything I have is there now, just power is a couple away and I didn't even finish the whole first season.

I’m mid way through my second season,... raking and dealing,... nothing is even close to fifty,... different worlds

@acamp1900_PSN - yeah, i tend to agree. Something just isn't adding up with @Rabid55Wolverine 's version. The 2021 character I've spent the most time with is a SS using the "sparkplug" archetype. Was in AA (of course) to start the year and was batting over 0.400 with decent power and RBI's. A couple weeks after the AA all-star game, I got moved up to AAA. Checking stats - I've played 40 games at the AAA level, hitting .314 with a .849 OPS. My highest offensive base stat on this toon is PWR R which is 40; the rest my batting is low to mid 30's. My base fielding stats are 45 Arm Strength, 34 Arm Acc, 41 Fielding and 41 Reaction. There are only 2 weeks left in my first season and that's when I stopped playing 2021 until RTTS is fixed.
Maybe @Rabid55Wolverine is just better than us or knows something we don't to get those base stats all up to 50 without even finishing the whole first season. Must be nice.

What isn't adding up? Lol. There is a few ways you can make the grind of an rtts season super easy and thwy give you more ways to do it than ever. I already have one archetype to diamond with 4 diamond slots filled and now I am onto another gold level archetype and almost have that one to diamond. It's not hard. If everything counts, you rocket your player up fast but if you think I'm doing it trying to play realistic, you're nuts.
I dont care about rtts, they killed any fun that mode was a few years ago so I'm making it easy as humanly possible and just mashing my way to 50s across the board.
I love when people who can't figure something out try to put shade on someone that has.

Doesn’t care about RTTS,... responds in a thread about RTTS progression stating everyone is newbish in RTTS,......

If thats directed at me, I guess comprehension is a difficult task for some. You HAVE to play RTTS if you want to max out your DD created player. Pretty simple stuff really. I never "stated" anyone is newbish in RTTS I just said if people can't figure out how to level up a player quick, that's on them. It's not hard at all.
It's quick. There is things like levels, created stadiums all sorts of things to help make this easier but people choose not to do it or don't try it. Just for the record, I don't care about road to the shoe, they killed the mode a few years ago like I said.
**forgot that ps4 and Xbox one don't have created stadiums but still not much of a difference
-
Anyway for those who choose to be remotely constructive.... IN RTTS (bold RTTS) for those who truly lack comprehension...
Here’s an example,... I focused on speed in RTTS,... my current is 38 speed. it took four separate training sessions and I’m STILL at 38. So FIVE training sessions to raise 1 stat 1 point,.... that’s crazy grindy.

Ok ill break it down for you, seeing as you're struggling. Play in a large park, put it in beginner, hit balls in the gap and collect extra base hits. You get speed every single time you do that..... EVERY SINGLE TIME. when you get pluses EVERY SINGLE TIME you level up quickly. When you are batting, swing power and hit the ball well. When you do that you gain every single time... if you want to build contact, swing with contact swing and build every single time. Before the season is over, you level up to almost 50 in every single stat and when training comes up, build fielding. This really isn't that difficult to figure out and it's very easy and reasonably quick.
If you want to do this playing a real style with realistic results, yes it takes a long time so build you guy for a season or 2 and start over and your guy is boosted up.

I'll have you face my 94 ovr CAP out of the pen. D.i.s.g.u.s.t.i.n.g.
-
I’ve played multiple seasons now dude,... the pluses you get in game don’t move your overall anywhere near even mentioning. So spare me your inside knowledge. Go faux flex in some other thread.
Almost through with my third year. In the majors, all star,... NOTHING, not one f’n stat Is over forty yet. Almost all of them are still in the very low thirties. It feels like I’m not even really playing yet which was my OPs point. I want my fast base stealing slap hitter back and after focusing on core speed for multiple seasons,.... still not even at forty

Lol, sucks to be you then. I'll enjoy my 99 overall dd player while you struggle to build something so simple. Funny how the game treats you differently than the 5 other people that have done this and had a stacked up hitter before a season is even over. Guess you must have gotten a different version that we did.
What flex are you talking about exactly? That I know how to do something that has been a thing in the game since they changed to the build system that rewards you for doing things in game?
No idea why you've had hostility since you first posted in here but like I said, enjoy not getting any gains and crying because you can't level up on a simple system.
-
I’m being hostile??? Jeez thank the lord you can block people here,... what a complete troll loser

That’s not the main issue at all,... it’s taking years to get even average in base ratings. I play fifa and nhl and do the year to year player modes there too. Every year you have to start over... that’s not the issue,.... I’ve not experienced anything, ever that progressing was this painfully slow in.
-
Are people being paid by sds to defend this game on the forums? Lmao ignore the douche, the progression and stat counting in rtts is a broken mess
-
Actually I have to give @Rabid55Wolverine some props. He's got a point.
Most people who are playing RTTS are probably doing so for the "experience" - that feeling of the struggle of starting as a minor league prospect and slowly working your way to the bigs and eventually maybe to super-star level. Myself, I typically play at all-star difficulty because I don't want to hit 0.400 with 60+ dingers in AA.
But, if your goal is to simply amass progression as quickly as possible - then everything @Rabid55Wolverine has posted is perfectly legit. Set the difficulty way down. If you have custom stadiums, maybe make sure your home games are in a huge stadium with huge gaps which the AA outfielders are not be able to cover. Forsake ever using the "normal" swing and always use either "power" or "contact" depending on if you have a perk on one of them or which one you are trying to raise. And it makes sense - you will grind out the gains a LOT faster than the guy playing for the "experience". Every time your progression bugs out, go play a quick DD game, and then come back and go back to grinding out stuff in RTTS. For maximum time efficiency, turn off all the cinematics, turn off all base running opportunities (takes too long waiting for CPU batters), and only play your batting and fielding chances.
Out of curiosity, I started a new RTTS setup this way. Well, as "new" as I could given the new "universal profile" so I already had some perks and gear. And, yes, I levelled up much faster than I was playing as I normally do. But then again, through two months of AA ball I was hitting 0.560 and had 20+ doubles. So any sense of realism was completely trashed. Not how I prefer to play so I'll be deleting that career and starting over. Actually I'll be starting over in 2020 which just arrived in the mail today. But again, props to @Rabid55Wolverine - he does have a point. Just not how I prefer to play.
