Secondary Position in RTTS The Show 26
-
@Tandil1368_XBL 1000% agree! I was the one spamming the chat on the Twitch Stream for RTTS asking this very question. At minimum they lied about a secondary being available from the beginning. At maximum it is possible that it’s not even in the game. I have gone through 3 months in the minors with the only option being to change my primary position. The position will change, but it won’t keep the previous position as a secondary. So I still have ZERO secondary position.
Absolutely UNREAL lie by the development team. We can’t even get a refund because of Sony’s policy.

@andyfrom93_psn @tandil1368_xbl Thats actually horrible that the team members are just flat out lying about secondary positions, or they just didn't understand the question to your exact point just saying cuz I didn't see it happen since normally I am not on Twitch.
-
@Christuffer_NSW I went ahead and rewatched the RTTS livestream and they did indeed clearly answer the question. No misunderstanding on their part. I am all for giving the benefit of the doubt, but this is either a bug that needs to be addressed or a lie.
That being said, I have yet to find it. The developers really need to address this since they clearly answered that there would be secondary positions from the start of RTTS. Even if they meant after the early years, it still is not available. Just changing the primary.
Truly, what is the point of having a “utility” archetype at character creation, but only being able to play one position with no secondary.
-
So many were saying FINALLY!! There 5 or 6 of us asking. I remember @andyfrom93_psn seeing a bunch asking about this over and over until it was answered.

There was a topic exactly like this one on the General forum. It has since been removed.
-
@Tandil1368_XBL Yep! The crazy thing is that no developer has responded.
Truly, I understand that DD gets all the focus because of the money it brings in — I too love DD. But, the developers said that this was in the game for the first time in years, and frankly, it’s not in the game.
RTTS players deserve to play as a utility player with multiple positions.
-
@andyfrom93_psn I agree, I would love to have a 2nd/IF player, or something similar. More and more players have the ability to play several positions all over the field.

I got this response from customer service, which basically told me they don't know anything about the game they sell:
"Looks like the secondary position comes in a few ways. First and easiest is when you are starting your player you can choose "Two-Way" this will allow you to chioose between a pitcher and one other postion. Another way comes as a story element that the game needs to trigger that your manager will come to you and ask for you to change possitions. This will make the new possition your main, while keeping your old possition as secondary."
Direct copy/paste from the email I received, typos and all.
-
Can anyone even confirm that the manger will initiate that conversation? Obviously we have the option to message our manager once a month and request a position change. Still crazy that the change doesn’t give you a secondary.
-
@slyravaniste_psn Unreal. The stole my money for the last time. I’m tired of paying $90 a year for an expansion. Graphics haven’t changed in 10 or so years, freezing intermittently has never been fixed and so many more issues.
-
This needs to be addressed. They lied to consumers. People bought this game with secondary positions being a selling point. Myself included. I don’t know why this is such a big ask. If you can create a player in the roster with a secondary, I don’t understand why they can’t add that in the RTTS player creator.
@sds_joek_psn can we get a response please?
-
Just to clear up confusion here, currently, non-two-way players can have a secondary, but it's not available from the start unless you're a two-way player.
-
far as I can tell, you have to have a conversation with your manager about changing your position... at which point you'll get your secondary position... but don't quote me on that as I have yet to approve my coach about doing that... I only did it with my Two-Way to set up my Two-Way balance which ended up being the same balance that I started with because I want to keep my start every five days and remain in the lineup... I'm trying to figure out how to just be a DH on the days I'm not pitching and then DH on the day that I pitch but not sure how that works in-game.
I know last year you would DH the day before you pitched, pitch & DH on the day you pitch, and you would hit and play the field all the other games if memory serves.

I tried tge conversation with my manager and once my position was changed my previous position was gone.
