What improvements do you want to see in RTTS for MLB The Show 21?

That's a great question, I would say:
- return of the ball trails from 19, so you can actually distinguish the ball from the infield dirt when you're playing 3B
- also from 2019, show a few more balls traveling down the line, even if they go foul, geez add a little suspense
- better judgment on pitcher relief so the manager doesn't freak out when you're up 2-1 and somebody gets a bloop single on you in the 7th
- allow you to contact your agent when times get really tough
- allow you the option of letting the AI manage your running when you get on-base, I find that difficult and tedious; in the alternative, eliminate the huge lag when changing directions in the baseline.
- add real game accomplishments to Events & Awards, like 4 HRs in one game, Perfect Games and No-Hitters
I agree with most of these things.
It can be hard to see the ball sometimes.Baserunning can make you go what? sometimes.
Needs to be an option for the reverse side. To Turn off all the assists on it too. I don't have a problem with it, but My Roomate does some how. It always makes him advance on fly balls, and he cant make it back in time and other stuff.Number 4 would be nice to. A new tab for Agent could be helpful. that way you could talk to him when ever you wanted. (Request Trade/Release/ Position Change Etc)
oh and Add Cycles, Allstar game MVP, Derby Champ etc. to this list as well
Oh and Going back to my Previous post.
I don't know how they could implement this
but Some way to Challenge calls the ump makes would be cool.Or some other ways you could get ejected if you have it on.
(hear me out. I know you're like why would I want this? isn't the point of RTTS to be like an rpg? Things like Charging the mound after being beaned. and A bench clearing fiasco would ensue. Stuff like this could be pretty cool. Or something like The Ump Blew a Call that resulted in You being struck out/ giving a walk. in a crucial situation.
I know most these probably wouldn't happen but its fun to imagine.a multiplayer RTTS mode could be fun too.
think of an at least 18 player lobby where everyone can use their created player at their position. Sounds really fun. -
They said no to charging the mound and fights. MLB said it would look bad. I don't want online rtts until they fix basic problems.
-
Based on your performance in the player showcase, have that actually affect what round you're drafted in. Don't have it pre-set. Seems like you can load your RTTS 10x and the same team will keep drafting you. As a SP, your player should automatically respond to balls hit behind him and at least turn around to watch the play instead of just staring at the catcher.
-
Online RTTS is would be sweet. Even if it was only like a 3v3 blitzball type thing. 9v9 would obviously be tough to pull off.
-
Spring Training should be more engaging in RTTS and Franchise.
Hopefully the way the player class/object is coded is overhauled so that two-way players are possible in RTTS.
-
Ah that's a shame on the Fights.
NHL has them lol.
(But that's besides the point. I just thought that'd sound cool, In Idea At least.)Being able to interact with fans would be really cool, if they could work it out.
Like an example could be You're on the corners (1B 3B etc) and your going near the stands, and maybe catch a foul ball. Then you could give it to them or something. -
I would like to see the problems that have existed in this game for years finally be corrected als would like to see the stuff that has been added to RTTS be finished instead of half baked BS. Lat thing is lets get back to the old point system where you can have the player you want not be limited by their ideas. That means also stopp with this change of position, if I create a SS I don't want to play LF

I'm gonna be honest here. I kinda like the current progression.
Maybe they could have both.
You could call it the "Advanced/Hardcore" version that has the points.
and the Current. "Normal/Casual" Mode which is the merit based progression.This way They could try to make everyone happy here.

I’ve been advocating for this same idea for a year. Back in March I even wrote a piece about it suggesting how it could be designed in a way to minimise the dev time. I put it forward to the devs via their feedback page, I hope they took the time to read it.

Alright I'll take a look at the blog.
Thank you.
The other thing I'm really hoping they have for the show 21 Is Cross Saves.
Since it's supposed to Go Multi Platform
"As Early as 21"I would really love to try this on the other Console(s)
And I've seen other games use this (I.e. Cod. Blech)
It'd Really be a great selling point as well.
(Well we all know you can carry your RTTS Player across years. Which I really appreciate, and something they have over the other sports games.)Because I really Don't want to have to buy a PS5 just for the game like I did with the 4.
MLB The Show 21 Set to Expand Beyond PlayStation as Soon as 2021 -
I have redone my suggestions posted above in light of recent developments.
- If you're doing well with your current team then they shouldn't be arbitrarily trading you. That's the whole point of letting you pick your team. For the moment those victimized by this can push the trade frequency slider to the left and save your team frequently in Data Utilities.
- Return of the ball trails from 19, so you can actually distinguish the ball from the infield dirt when you're playing 3B.
- Similarly, tone down the light backdrop in some parks so you can see the pitches coming in during the day and early evening. It's like trying to bat with a spotlight in your face.
- Allow you to contact your agent when things get really crazy.
- Allow you the option of letting the AI manage your running when you get on base. Base running can be sometimes difficult and usually tedious, particularly with a bad hitting team. Don't turn down (or turn off) the team hitting when the human player gets on base.
- Add real accomplishments to Events & Awards, like 4 HRs in one game, Perfect Games and No-Hitters
- Get those guys who waggle their bats out of my pitching meter area!
- Leave the hitting info up longer once you leave the box, by the time you can look it's gone.
- I don't need to see the pitcher try to pick off the runner on first four consecutive times. Save the pick-offs for when the runner gets caught or there's a throwing error.
- Give me something for hitting between Veteran (too easy) and All-Star (too hard).
- A batting clutch failure should be -1, not -2. Dude, doing the job 1/3 of the time is way above par. It's why batting clutch doesn't rise as your career progresses, unlike other ratings. Pitching clutch works correctly.
- I'm tired of drilling an obvious double down the line, no threat of it being caught, and sliding into the feet of my teammate at second base. The base running has to be more aggressive then it is, no excuse for a runner to be there.
-
I would like to see the no doubt homerun animations get fixed. I'm still seeing the bat float. Also, I would like the option to choose no doubt homerun animations from certain player's stances without being locked into that stance. Lastly, I would like to see endorsement deals being offered. It would be nice to sign with a brand sometime after you get drafted.
-
My roommate and I share this, and I'm not even joking when I counted to Ten consecutive pick off attempts the pitcher made. It get crazy at a certain point. especially when you have to hold back on the stick to even have a chance of being safe.

Turn off the 20 day rainstorms that follow you. Other than that I love RTTS as is.

It's funny how it always talks about their might be rain delays but it never happens

I’d like to see more instances with my player interacting with coaches, media, etc. make contract money useful instead of just a number for the rtts. Maybe implement the $350,000,000 contract money to be useable and then from there maybe be able to buy rtts only equipment, accessories, house Etc, and be able to personalize your player even more which could offer a wider variety of playability.
-
There’s a moment when your player gets asked to try another position and if you agree to try it, you can get coaching on that. You can then ask the coach about the infield, outfield and pitching and I believe catcher too? But it made me think that sds might have had a way to transition into a pitching role from being an outfielder or infielder at one time or another?
So if they made it an option to transition from pitcher to positional player and vice versa, then to me, it’d make rtts really shine.Some examples-
There’s tons of real life players who have either pitched in the major leagues or came up as a pitcher in college/minor leagues, before deciding to be a hitter. Babe Ruth, Mark McGwire, John Olerud, Rick Ankiel, Dave kingman, and even stan musial. There’s many more. @Collin_SDS -
I would definitely like to see an option that allows RTTS players to spend their contract money on equipment or any other customizations to be allowed for the gamer. I’d also like to hear more audio from broadcasters. Especially when you’ve hit 3 home runs in a game it tends to have the same reaction every time. Just more variety of reactions from broadcasters.

(RTTS)
Adding Optional Batting Practice. You could add this option in the same menu before you start each start to the series "Play Game" , "Simulate this game", "Simulate this , "Choose Uniform" and then followed with "Optional BP"
The other option is to add it to the beginning of each game before the intro. It will be interfaced similarly to how warming up with pitchers look. You get 5 or so baseballs to hit and can skip the BP optionally by clicking the ps4 touch pad if wanted.
If you succeed well in BP through mini games (optional idea) or regular BP then you can receive a power or contact boost for the game.
Side Note: If a ball is connected very well with and its undoubtedly a homerun , it should go further for the sake of entertainment,I wanna be able to hit the slide in Milwaukee or hit a dinger into San Frans glove.
-Just some ideas to think of!
