    Ive been playing Rtts for a few years now, and normaly i am not 1 to complain quickly.
    But this year it feels like a huge grind to upgrade you're player.

    As a position player you get exp and tokens quicklyer then a pitcher. So thats not my main complain.
    While the stats you need to upgrade as a pitcher is way more, and arround 70 k9 it cost 14 tokens to upgrade from 70 to 71 and you have R and L so 2 stats, and also the same as H/9 R and L. And you also have you're pitches to take care off with velo and break.
    While a good match gives you like 7 a 9 and yeah if you play on lower difficulty you get more, but thats not as it should be.
    I dont want to play 3 matches to upgrade 1 single stat of the many stats i have to do.
    I believe the pitcher should have lower exp upgrade cost or increased exp so you can earn more.
    Is this only my feeling or are there more people with these thoughts?

    The tokens to upgrade stuff components are absurdly high. The fastest way (cheapest) way I’ve found to upgrade OVR on a pitcher is to just keep dumping tokens into Stamina and Control.

    They definitely raised token costs because there are, in theory, more ways to get tokens via goals and the multiplier tied to your potential. However I got called up to the MLB from AA as a 65 ovr so my performance is very average, sometimes getting single digit tokens in a series and the only goals I have are season goals that still have like 94 games left on them. I absolutely feel like I've hit the grind hard already as well.

    I have never been called up to MLB without my OVR being higher than the lowest in my position. I have had an A potential since winning HS championship or early in college depending on which save I was using. The bonus has never been actually applied. The 1.5 for potential does not seem to work I’ve tried on more than 1 player. A catcher, 3b, 2b, and a 2-way starter/2b.

    @lastingimpact_PSN I honestly think it's balanced around the (not working) 1.5x XP from potential.

    I agree with you, I’ve also noticed that the coaches bonus is also not working. The hitting coach actually worked on only a single AA hit but never applied again for the rest of the game. I activate the coaches once a month on my 2 way and other players, like so many other things this year it’s just broken.

    The sad part is they don’t even acknowledge that things are a problem. There seems to be no sense of urgency to our issue.
