Game Update 3 Thread

Ok deleted both saves. Go to set up a ball player.
There is already one there (checked - I have no save games)
He is a second base (why? - I never created a second base player has my look and loadout.
I exit the game using a hard reset. I don't want the game to save this guy. I DO NOT want to play 2B and check Settings > Data > Saves again.
Nope. No saves for this character. No RTTS player saves at all (and RTTS is the only mode I play)
This "phantom" player I've never used has more progress to begin with than either of the players I created?Feels like this "phantom" player is getting the XP and advancement I should be earning. The player I'm using is stuck. This guy starts with 5 more overall points than I ever had. But he is in the wrong position. A position I never created a player at.
Sorry for spamming this thread. Wanted to keep people up with what was going on in some details to give the devs a chance to fix it. Needed to provide details of the problems and post them. Probably wasting my time but worth a go.

So the game was updated/patched, yet the RTTS archetype progression is still not tracking, some absolute [censored]. Why say you fixed something when clearly you didn't lmaooo

- Is it now possible to create multiple players in RTTS?
- In RTTS, is it now possible to start over from scratch with each new save or are we still stuck with the same player keeping all its attributes?
The real question is :
3. If both of these things aren't possible, is it planned to address them or not?I want to know if I should quit that forum and throw that game away for good or if I should wait a few weeks....
@Collin_SDS_PSN Please answer at least question 3... It's been 2 weeks and I want to know if things will be addressed or not...
Wait, so I have a pitcher ball player. You’re telling me I can’t make a catcher as well?
I have to stay as a pitcher all year or just delete it and start over ??
Actually you can start a new game save at another position(Press and Hold Square in the main menu over the RTTS Option). But you are forced to keep the name, build and you keep all your precedent player's attributes...
Which means you'll probably start a career as a 80 ov+ 18 years old playing double AA Ball... I know it's weird...
This year RTTS is so Broken... They took all the realism away on purpose... The loadouts are a really great idea for DD but are making RTTS the worst career simulation of any sports game I've ever played... Go to the RTTS section of the forum... It's filled with angry customer's that want their game fixed or their money back...
As for me since that game has been so over hyped and has so poorly delivered, it's my last Pre-ordered game from SDS...
They want Stub Money and DD player's provide that so basically the rest of the game is broken on purpose so we're all going to DD... It's either on purpose or it's the worst series of bad design decisions I've seen in any sports game I've ever owned...
That's why I asked @collin_sds_MLBTS 3 simple questions wich I hope to get answered since on the RTTS page there's no feedback from SDS and they haven't responded to my questions in the feedback I submitted a week ago...

I hate when people make assumptions about calling RTTS a money grab. If it's a money grab then answer two simple questions. Why didn't they allow architypes to be sellable? And why do they have so many positions available per architype?
Looks to me if it was a money grab they couldv'e made it to where you can't reuse equipment per created position? Or have 0 secondary positions.
Stop spreading rumors!!!
For the Reccord, you can go to the Community Market, select Equipment & Perks and buy cards to add to your loadouts...
Like I said, Ballplayer is a great idea for DD but its implementation broke RTTS and it's frustrating when you spend 100$ on a game only to find out that it's so broken...
Bring back RTTS from TheShow20, Keep Ballplayer for DD, solve the server issues and you got a mighty fine game! A game I'd play gladly until 2022 release.
Sounds simple but, knowing a thing or two about software development, I know it takes lot of effort to do... That's why I asked if it's gonna be solved or not...
Simple as that...
If they fix it, I'll enjoy the game. If they don't, I'll play a few conquest/March to October and then shelve the game and play RTTS on TheShow20. One thing for sure though, next year I wont pre-order and I'll come back here to read the feedback before making a buying decision.

Read it all in the link. Post about it here.
Colin...there is a bug that is costing players hundreds of thousands in stubs. The Quick Sell button is broken. I submitted a bug with the video. There are two issues.
-
Sometimes the button is completely frozen and you can't sell at all.
-
The other, more important bug is that it says sell for xyz amount .... that then goes to 5 stubs. Players are losing a ton of stubs due to this bug.

I thought about the quick sell bug a little more, and this bug actually could get SDS in legal trouble. The quick sell bug constitutes the definition of negligence and is tied into possible financial transactions (people buying more stubs due to an error in the game). This is a broken product w/o a remedy for the user ....and that introduces potential legal issues for SDS.
This isn't like other bugs, and is far more serious and it needs to be fixed ASAP and remedy the issue for those affected or it leaves SDS legally vulnerable. Every recorded video fo the bug is evidence the would be admissible in court.
SDS...please fix this bug by the end of the weekend and compensate the affected users (as I know you can do this in your backend database). You can see affected users in your database transaction logs.

Everyone do not do the sell now option from within the packs right now its broken and it quicksells your player. Ive lost multiple diamonds before I caught what was happening.

There’s no user error for me. I have one player - the default. One load out. There’s nothing to skip or make an error on. I have been playing this game for years. There’s some sort of glitch with how they wanted the player to play in two modes (DD and RTTS). It’s not matching. My player shows SS, catcher, and SP. 82 gold and 65 bronze, depending on RTTS and DD. It’s bizarre.

@unclescritty_psn said in Game Update 3 Thread:
Deleted my progress
There is either something wrong with my save or something wrong with the game.
(I did have two saves (both with my name - i.e the same name) wondering if the game is getting confused or something?
I'm going to give it one more go. Both saves deleted. If I get no-where today I'm uninstalling.
2 weeks of this BS and I've had enough of this,. Going back to MLB The Show 20.
Man I loved that game.Ok so you don't want help? Ok

I know... but it's a way to pay to improve your player...
You accused me of saying false things when I said that it was designed to encourage players to pay to improve their player VS the old version were your stats were mostly based on your play and your career... The fact you can buy "Diamond Contact IV" perks is what I was referring to.
Anyway, I don't want to argue with you, if you enjoy the game as it is, fine, I'm happy for you. Go and play it as you like.
For me, I just really hate the fact that RTTS is not a career mode anymore and has become a "Campaign mode". You can start lots of different campaigns but it's always the same "Ballplayer" career... I preferred the old way were each RTTS save was a distinct career.
The way they sold the game in the feature premiere was missleading when they purposely omitted that fact. I just asked 3 simple questions to know if they will fix it or not. That's it... That's what I want to know and that's the answers I'm still looking for...

@SDS the May Daily Moments program has reset the entire program back to level 0. Surely this is a bug that needs to be addressed.
Now there are 35 days in the May Daily Program. I have already done the first 10 levels and now I have to do them again.
Can this be fixed please!

The month rolled over today. The first daily program was for April. This one is for May. I'm guessing it was fully intentional to start back at 1. I'm just curious why Giambi is there again.

Since the update I have got zero progression on my pitcher loadout 33% of the time. Also I still get no progression on my hitter loadout around 15% of the time. Please just get rid of this horrible system of leveling your player, as you clearly aren't capable of getting it to work properly.

I'm not trying to argue either, i'm the type of person who likes to explain all aspects for the new people so they can understand the different avenues rather than have tunnel vision of 1 peticular way.
Which is why i chose your post in regards to equipment and perks you essentially saying it is forcing people to play DD or buy equip and perks from market. And i'm sorry but that is false in the terms of "have to".
I haven't touched DD with my created player or the market. I have rewards from 1rst inning program to improve ballbpayer, and all my equipped perks i got from the RTTS task reward tree. All my equip is diamond or gold except for 1 but that attribute isn't as pressing in terms of need to max out. This is where our opinion differs. You think it encourages people to go buy perks from market, but i think it is just 1 of many ways to aquire these items. An avenue if you will for those who don't want to grind thier player.
Now as far as mode goes, i'm not sure how i feel about it yet in terms of the style? I can and have created seperate careers and i typically don't add perks or Architypes i've earned already but i'm still tinkering with it. And does so far play out different for me to this point, but jury is still out on my side with how the mode plays, simply due to server instability at this point.

You accused me of saying false things when I said that it was designed to encourage players to pay to improve their player VS the old version were your stats were mostly based on your play and your career... The fact you can buy "Diamond Contact IV" perks is what I was referring to.
Anyway, I don't want to argue with you, if you enjoy the game as it is, fine, I'm happy for you. Go and play it as you like.
For me, I just really hate the fact that RTTS is not a career mode anymore and has become a "Campaign mode". You can start lots of different campaigns but it's always the same "Ballplayer" career... I preferred the old way were each RTTS save was a distinct career.
The way they sold the game in the feature premiere was missleading when they purposely omitted that fact. I just asked 3 simple questions to know if they will fix it or not. That's it... That's what I want to know and that's the answers I'm still looking for...
I'm not trying to argue either, i'm the type of person who likes to explain all aspects for the new people so they can understand the different avenues rather than have tunnel vision of 1 peticular way.
Which is why i chose your post in regards to equipment and perks you essentially saying it is forcing people to play DD or buy equip and perks from market. And i'm sorry but that is false in the terms of "have to".
I haven't touched DD with my created player or the market. I have rewards from 1rst inning program to improve ballbpayer, and all my equipped perks i got from the RTTS task reward tree. All my equip is diamond or gold except for 1 but that attribute isn't as pressing in terms of need to max out. This is where our opinion differs. You think it encourages people to go buy perks from market, but i think it is just 1 of many ways to aquire these items. An avenue if you will for those who don't want to grind thier player.
Now as far as mode goes, i'm not sure how i feel about it yet in terms of the style? I can and have created seperate careers and i typically don't add perks or Architypes i've earned already but i'm still tinkering with it. And does so far play out different for me to this point, but jury is still out on my side with how the mode plays, simply due to server instability at this point.
Just like you said : "I can and have created seperate careers and i typically don't add perks or Architypes i've earned already but i'm still tinkering with it."
So basically, you can't rely on game mechanics for realism, you must discipline yourself into respecting some "set of rules" to keep realism at a minimum level.
Kind of you yo prove the point I'm trying to put forward since last week...
RTTS was a career mode and was advertised as such. It is now a campaign mode that you enroll with the same player over and over... If that's the way they want to go with this mode, no problem, but be honest about it and confirm it... Stop advertising it as the "brand new career mode that brings a whole new level of immersion".
They do what they want with their products and I'll choose to buy it or not... The reason I'm mad is because I was sold something completely different than what was delivered and starting the 3rd weeks after release, I can't have simple answers to simple questions...

SDS please acknowledge and fix the issue where equipment stats are not counting in RTTS. People pay stubs for diamond equipment just like players and I know you'd care somewhat if it was missing cards.
We're not so angry and annoyed because everything isn't fixed. It's because you all are literally silent on all of these problems with your game. Take some accountability for once. Ghosting everyone doesn't help your case. I mean I don't know who runs your PR dept but apparently you don't have one?
I'll keep an eye out for a tweet about new content though.. thanks so much. By the way the game is great other than all the bugs and server issues. I actually really like it and I like the ideas behind the Ballplayer and connecting RTTS and DD. It's just really bad execution, and then basically sticking your head in the sand while we all freak out.
