@dominickb3_xbl said in Equipment buffs still not working:

So disappointing that this patch was supposed to fix RttS issues as well as ballplayer issues. Still no bonus from my equipment. Occasionally it will show up in the second game of a series, but the first game never. Then I still can't look at my loadout without resetting my gear appearance set up.

Yup, having to reset our player gear each time we visit our player loadouts is a huge pain in the [censored]. Wonder how long it’ll take them to properly fix the issue. If they even do.

Oh the gear is just brutal. I was going to purchase the diamond tier Adidas shoes for the speed and steeling perks. But then I remembered that there wasn’t really any point since the gear doesn’t apply itself in game. So essentially your equipment boosts do absolutely nothing and now stubs are also kinda useless. So basically all I’ve been doing is racking up stubs with nowhere to use them. As for the appearance, don’t get me started on that. Still annoys me that I frequently have to fix my appearance every time I go to check my progression. Was hoping SDS would of sent out another patch sometime soon. But it’s not looking to promising. Be nice at least if they gave us some kind of update.

Been there, happened to me last night. Wife went to bed, thought it be a perfect time to play some RTTS then 10 minutes in the servers went down. All I can say is I wasn’t happy.

Miss the days of offline RTTS. Where you could play and relax. This year’s version is so screwed it’s far from relaxing.

Ok, thanks. Figured I start a whole new RTTS career to see that’ll help. Wasn’t very far anyhow. Also started over since a lot of equipment perks didn’t seem like they were being applied in game.

Sweet, I can’t wait for that. Hate being a 3 pitch wonder, lol.

I don’t have that issue per say. My issue is each time I go into my loadout to edit or view something. My compression sleeve which was on my right arm is now on my left arm. So every time I have to go back into appearance, equipment, and put my compression sleeve back on my right arm then change my batting gloves from 1 to 2. It does this every time and it’s annoying as hell. Not to mention my pitcher loadout has no compression sleeve on his right arm when I made it. Though for some stupid reason or another the minute I switch my loadouts between games my pitcher always comes out with the compression sleeve on his right arm. The in menu loadout is just screwed up as it never saves anything. Come to think it, there’s a lot of things screwed up in this year’s game.

I thought it was going to be fixed this last update based on everything they had listed. And I’m pretty sure it said they were going to resolve that particular issue. Well it’s not fixed and it’s still a huge pain in the [censored]. I don’t think anybody even bothered to do any testing of their patch on the other end.

My equipment seems to work sporadically. Sometimes it may work for 1 game then the next 6 games I get nothing. Only way I knew my equipment was working one game was because my speed for my player showed up as 60. Which made sense with my equipment boost. Though when checked the following game my speed was a 53. I was like wth. Clearly still broken along with loadouts and progression when switching between my position player and pitcher. My position player seems to register in progression, my pitcher does not. Even if I exit to the main RTTS screen and switch there. Just slowly grinding till they fix the issues. If they even do.

I have that problem, though it’s the other way around. My players which is a LF gets progression points, though my pitcher does not no matter what I try. It’s stupid that only one progression works and the other never does. Guess my LF will become a stud and my pitcher a dud if this is how the progression system is going to work. Hopefully there will be a fix for this soon.

I think the longest contract I’ve ever signed for was for 4 years. I tend not to sign long term deals to avoid that kind of scenario. Or if the team decide to trade away a lot of our top players then the team goes down hill. Ever since I played this game I typically sign 1-2 year deals till I’m eligible for free agency. I’ve always made my contract so it expires on the 6th year. This way I can gauge wether or not how the team is doing before I commit to a slightly longer contract or if I want to stay with them.

Nevertheless the trade logic as you’ve mentioned has been screwed up as long as I can remember. Sure I could lower the trade frequency slider within the settings, but that would only slow the frequency of the trades not the type of stupid trades they do. I mentioned in my previous post that my team traded Altuve and Correa. Well today I realized I haven’t seen Gurriel either. But I I didn’t look to see where he had gone to. But it’s looking like we parted ways with 3 of our best players in one year. Hard to understand the stupid logic in that one.

I just got booted with a notification saying server maintenance. Be nice if there was some kind of warning in advance so it doesn’t screw up my progression.

Just noticed another patch was added this morning. So far we’ve had a bunch up patch updates but no fix to the dang bugged equipment appearance issue. I was honestly hoping this would of been addressed in patch 1.07/1.007. But apparently not.

My pet peeve this year is I find the pitcher is constantly doing slides steps instead of his regular delivery. No matter if I take a normal lead or a one step lead. It’s hard to time correctly cause the pitcher is constantly doing slides steps almost every pitch. In previous versions the pitcher would do this until he had a 2 ball count then do his normal delivery to avoid having control issues. So I would typically steal bags in 2 ball courts to better my chances at successfully stealing bases. But for some odd reason, this year it seems like it makes no difference what count the pitcher is in. It’s constant slide step after slide step, or pick off attempts. I can live with multiple pick off attempts, but the constant slide steps are infuriating. You would never see a pitcher in a real MLB game do so many slide steps. This is what is killing my stealing game this year. Under normal pitching deliveries I usually have a pretty good steal rate. Anyone else notice the constant slide steps..?

Well I was drafted by Houston, played my first season in AA/AAA. Then the following season I played about half a month then got called up. When I looked at our lineup card I noticed Jose Altuve and Carlos Correa weren’t on it. So I checked the injured list and they weren’t there either. Did some digging around and Altuve is on Cleveland and Correa is on the Royals. Like wth..!! Two of our best players were traded after the one year. Like in what reality would these types of trades ever happen. I swear the AI is getting stupider every year. Especially when you get peanuts in return for top notch players.

A endless battle that’ll hopefully be addressed in a future update. I have the same issue every time I go into my load out to check my progression or to check something. My settings like revert back to default. Compression sleeve on the wrong arm, one batting glove instead of two, etc. It’s been a issue from the get go that I hope will resolved in the next update.

Yup, I notice that today. I originally laughed and thought it was funny. Then thought to myself that this is probably a new bug. Haven’t seen it happen again mind you.

Yup, totally agree with you there.

@deadshot-rb_xbl said in Found a workaround for adding pitches:

So I’ve been GRINDING in RTTS. Have a diamond slugger right now. But when I am a pitcher, my guy only had 3 pitches. Couldn’t ever add additional pitches, only replace. BUT!!!! I found a way to get the pitches you want.

I started a new RTTS file and made him ONLY a pitcher! That’s the key! When this happened, my very first bullpen training had “add pitch” option available. I added 2 pitches so that my guy had a 5 pitch arsenal.
Once I learned those pitches, I loaded back into my diamond slugger and BOOM, my guy has the 5 pitches that I selected from my brand new RTTS file.

Hope this helps!!!!!!

I did this very thing when I kept grinding with my two-way player and I couldn’t add a pitch whatsoever. Once I created my pitcher career I was able to add a 4th and 5th pitch within the first two or three bullpen sessions. Then I continued my two-way player career and all 5 pitches were in my arsenal.

I couldn’t add a pitch a 4th or 5th pitch no matter what I tried on my 2-way LF/SP. I got frustrated so I figured I’d start another RTTS career solely as a pitcher. Now I don’t know if your a 2-way player or just a pitcher, but try creating another RTTS career and make sure it’s a separate save which it should be. Play how ever many games it takes to get a training session. On my first training session I was as able to replace one of my current 3 pitches and add a 4th. Next training session I was able to replace one of my 4 pitches and had a option to add a 5th. Do this till you get the pitches you want then delete that game save. Open your previous saved RTTS career and all 5 pitches should be in your arsenal. That’s what worked for me. No harm in trying.
