Secondary Position in RTTS The Show 26
-
Nice reply, but if you look at the backlash SDS got over their years long mishandling, some would say outright malicious handling, of Stadium Creator and how that backlash did nothing to make SC better, then I would frankly say 10 million people telling SDS they are wrong isn't going to make them budge one inch. They have proven how incalcitrant they can be.
-
Right. I would actually be more surprised if there is a change than if there isn’t. They seem pretty content on putting out essentially the same game over and over again.
-
There is no way this can be added as a patch, I never expected that it would be a large amount of coding. I’m sorry I’m not going to make any complementary statements to SDS after this disaster and how long it tppk to actually respond.
This is something we have been asking to have added for years. The fact is that players are constantly being ignored for so many years. This years release has so many issues I have lost my desire to even play.
Examples that I’ve experienced so far:
1 Constant Crash to dashboard when attempting a manual save (I refuse to use auto save from past years experience)
2 Token bonus from potential not working3 Token bonuses from Pitching and hitting coaches not working
4 Player comparisons for promotions being matched with a completely different position. Ex My second baseman in AA was being compared to a third baseman in AAA. Once in AAA I was being compared to a centerfield player
5 Worse than ever late inning comebacks. This has been an issue for years but wow this year it’s astronomical. Ex I was playing CWS top 9 I doubled in RBI score 14-1 and to no-one’s surprise as I’m on 2nd batter struck out. Sim to end to see we lost in bottom 9 14-15. I admit this one made me rage quit
6 As mentioned above the amount of batters striking out if you play your base running opportunities the batters behind will strikeout more than 95%of the time. I did a post with test results from 25 back in late Jan or early Feb
7 RTTS player wearing incorrect cleats intermittently (wrong colors and brand)
8 Sunglasses. I really don’t know where to start with is one. They screwed it up in 25 and it’s still not fixed. It’s a crapshoot if they show up or not
9 Pitcher look. What happened to actually looking at a base runner while holding left trigger? Why was this removed? Was it done on purpose or is it a bug?
10 Ball in the dirt ribbon. New feature added last year when on base, the only time I ever saw it was during the tutorial. Is this still in the game?
There are a few more but I think you get the idea, some are gameplay and some are just bad AI decisions.

i actually like the number 9 change since now you can aim your pitch with the slide step. Before unless i was doing it wrong it would just auto pitch it down the middle for the slide step since you had to hold L2 wich made you face the runner.
But that could have been with just the pitching mode i guess. i dont think that one is a big deal since you have him on camera anyway on the upper right if your screen. I feel its like the token counter, whats the point of watching your token gains count up one by one when the total is already on the top left of your screen.
i mean sometimes that thing takes a min or two to count bc you have like 50 on a great double exp game and its not apart of the loading screen timer. So you have to wait for it to count and count when its already done in the upper left, then when its done you have to wait on the loading screen its like man. I have time to go to the bathroom
but you really dont, bc you have to hit continue for the loading screen after the counter 
-
Before you aimed the pitch first then pulled trigger for slide step.
-
No, it would reset to center if you did that. I don't think turn auto centering off was in the game in 25 or lower or i would have found it like i did in 26.
I kinda wana load up older version of the game now to see if im crazy or not
but i feel like im competent enough to have figured that out 
-
I’ve never had a problem, select pitch aim (hold stick in position) pull trigger, either pick off or pitch. That’s the way I’ve been doing since 07 never had an issue with meatballs. If you still have 25 try it. Hope it helps. I want tge view back completely ruins immersion when using the window.
-
tbh if they brought back what you want i would just adjust with the new non auto center toggle. What pitch mode did you play 25 and prior? i use pulse bc I cbf drawing and doing input timers that could be the reason why re auto centering is a problem for me it just does it in that mode like there are many things diff in each play mode fullgame/dynamic/my plays that you never see in each other.
-
That might be it, I used to work in a power plant and crushed my thumb closing a railroad car while unloading coal. For that reason I use button classic controls. The original control scheme from the beginning. The left stick can not be moved until pitch or pick off throw is made.
-
I think i found one of the reasons why there is no Secondary position.
So as a Positional Catcher certain perks work for it like Cannon Arm ect. But if you are a two way player Cannon Arm does not work for the Catcher. The text is even different for both characters, being pitcher is outfield only and Catcher it works for you.
I dont think the game can handle the swapping of perk per position on the fly.
I thnk thats why they got rid of loadouts since they would break all the time and never worked on release when they first came out.
-
It wouldn’t make everyone happy long term but at bare minimum they could at least let us have secondaries where the perks wouldn’t need adjustments. It would be better than nothing.

Exactly

@Tandil1368_XBL completely agree. I bought this years game not expecting big changes to graphics and all but at least could grind for new gear and such….that’s not even a thing since it’s exactly the same gear as we had last year…just with less of a chance to actually get said gear because 20/20 equipment packs. What a freaking joke. So wish another company would make a baseball game so there would at least be an option and at best there would be some competition to actually listen to your customers.

@braves137_PSN that would be great. When is the deal done? When could another developer possibly take over?
