Pitch attributes not progressing is being worked on.
-
Has this been fixed? If not, is there a timetable for when it will be? I have been keeping this game on hold for this exact issue. Seems like a pretty trivial thing to fix...

Any updates on this? As of my post it's still an issue. Has anyone found a work around?
I managed to find an almost-workaround
started a new RTTS file using one of those XP grind rosters where every player except your team is a 0 OVR. I simmed until I got a game with earn 2x towards break/control, then threw nothing but sliders all game. AI couldnt hit them at all. That managed to get my slider Break up to 37. It's now at 40.
Did the same thing over—waiting for a 2x break game—but swapped my Slider with my Curve because the AI hits the curve way better. Break upgraded to 37 same as last time. Did that a few times over to get it to 40, then swapped my Slider for my Changeup and did the same thing over again
This is may work, but is not a complete workaround since your attributes still reset. So the only way this works is by just spamming one pitch for an entire game and hoping you get enough to cycle the attribute to the next level. If you don't, your progress is lost. This seems like a simple issue that could be fixed with minimal effort. How do we get this raised up in priority lol

or they could just fix their game. Too busy making new shiny cards and gambling addictions to bother with the integrity of the game of baseball though

Once your attribute level is high (36, 37,38…) you can’t get enough in one game to level up. Ive been stuck on 37 fastball velo for 2 months. My best single game throwing 100% fastballs I had 25 strikeouts and didn’t make it to 38. Next game it reset.

Still broken. Can't progress past 40 fb velocity.

still broken.

Still broken

Thanks for updating. I check here before logging in to play.

i'm placing bets on this never getting fixed.
-
4 months later still not fixed what joke
-
Still broken, can't pass 36 FB Velo
-
Still utterly broken. I'm embarrassed for the company at this point.
-
Is everyone at least reporting this issue?

We’ve been reporting it for months… they just don’t a give a sh*t about it.

Any other work around ideas? Maybe take certain perks off and on? This makes me want to bang my head against a wall. I made a velocity pitcher and then a control pitcher to see if maybe the individual pitch velocities would go past 38 and both builds are stuck. So I'm just curious what else anyone has tried and had luck with. I don't see how this can still be a problem this far after it was a confirmed bug. I worked at Activision as a QA tester on Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 so I kinda know how the process works to get bugs submitted to the developers to get fixed. One thing that sits in the back of my mind was if they classified this bug as a WNF... will not fix. That usually only happened with small environmental bugs like maybe you could walk through a small rock and your character's foot would just go right through the rock. But when it came to progression breaks... they were always put at the top of the list as an AAA showstopper. Meaning the game could not release without fixing the break. I understand that you can still progress in the game with this bug so it wouldn't necessarily be classified as a AAA... but it's still a progression break so it would have priority over smaller issues. Such as the MLB record for hit streak topping out at 255. Same with home runs in a season lol. Anyway, sorry for rambling. I just wanted to add my two cents in.

As a long time RTTS player(started in 12-stopped in 20 due to no YTY saves) it's sad but not surprising that SDS continues to not care much about what was once an important part of the game.
The world has changed-everything is now about social game playing whether it's about playing against friends or strangers.Resources are always scare and are going to be allocated to the parts of the game that make the most money. -

the only work around I've found to increase break is to download one of the XP Grind rosters, then assign a slider to whichever number pitch you want to increase the break on.
The progress seems to reset somewhere just after half way, so what I do is increase the break on a pitch in training, assign a slider to that pitch I just increased, then sim until I can choose the 2x Break boost. If you're under 50% progress, you can easily upgrade it in a single game.
With the 2x break I go into the game then throw nothing but that one pitch.
It is absurdly tedious of course and wild that this is the only way to increase attributes but here we are

The title of this thread, combined with the date it was posted, makes me laugh every time I see it now.

I can’t believe this still isn’t fixed. My guy been stuck for long time now. I buy game for RTTS bc I don’t have time to play other stuff. I’m sure they won’t be offering refunds.
