@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.

I’ve always bought the MLB The Show series since it pretty much came out. I however skipped a year and didn’t buy the ‘20 version. So decided to buy The Show ‘21 last year but it was so riddled with bugs, equipment not functioning correctly, and a screwed up archetype system in RTTS that I told myself I’d never buy MLB The Show again till 3-4 months down the road incase it had similar issues as last year.

But lately I’ve been wanting to play again and have been contemplated getting The Show ‘22. But I’m undecided as I’ve been keeping tabs on on this Forum every two days or so to see what issues are popping up. And if I’m being totally bourse, I don’t like a lot of what I’m reading. Now is this year’s game as bad as last “21 in terms of bugs, glitches, etc, to the point that I should maybe wait a bit to see if they iron out these issues..? Or is buying the game right now worth it..? I’ve been playing MLB The Show ‘19 the past 5-6 days since the actual MLB season started up. But I couldn’t bother touching ‘21 as it was bug ridden. Anyhow, I appreciate any insight you guys can offer.

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.

I’m not whining at all man. And why you had to be so disrespectful about my question wasn’t warranted. I simply asked if anyone knew if this year’s game had as many issues as last year’s. And I’m sure I’m not the one who thought this as well. Seen many people posted more negative comments than I. I’ve in no way bashed the game, so labelling me as no true fan is further then the truth.

I agree with every new game there’s bugs and glitches, I get lt. But when I’ve read that some can’t even play their second season for whatever unknown reason has me a bit concerned. New games aren’t cheap, and as consumers we have every right to know the ins and the outs about every game before we buy. So again, all I wanted to know was is if I should wait a bit before buying this year’s game till some of the bugs were ironed out. Or is what I’m reading not as bad as I’ve read..?

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.

I’ve always just played RTTS, never really touch any other mode for the most part. Think I played franchise mode once in The Show ‘19 for a single season. But that was the extent of it really. RTTS has always been my favourite mode. Anyway, I really appreciate your feedback. Much appreciated.

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.
