Assuming SDS is even reading this - please add Diamond CPU teams. The teams begin the year as Live cards but as better cards are released, they are added to a CPU team. Then we can choose to play against diamond CPU players too.

I agree with the premise but due to roster updates not sure it would work with live series vs CPU, but i could see maybe at AS break having an option to play a lineup with a mixture of flashbacks and legends and LS mixed in with a seperate lineup for each team. But with that being said you can play Franchise and turn on legends in the draft but i know you are referring to DD but i mention that for a qwik fix if ya want.. 👍

The CPU teams have a 40 man roster. Maybe one solution is that as various series are added, they replace the cards on the Live team with the special cards (i.e. AS, Breakout, Milestone, etc.). They could let the gamer choose which cards start so they can play against the cards they want to. That would give CPU games another challenge level and let us practice against cards we see in online games.

I have two questions.

Have you never used his card?

Is this a haiku

Yes i used it in moments! New style MVP Card Art. Cannot confirm it will make it into this years game, but it is October. So i dunno?

One other thing i wanted to mention but forgot. If you are New to meter pitching, go into Settings/Gameplay/Pitching select API to ON. This is great for practice, the catcher will give you a reccomended pitch, then a glove will show up telling you where the pitch should end up. Use it as an indicator to learn how to get your pitch movement to that spot. API "Will Not" be active in online play.

Joe morgan? Ozzie Smith?

Charlie Blackmon? Trevor story? Vinny Castilla? Dante Bichette?

Ron Guidry? Greg Maddux?

Rollie fingers? Dennis Eckersly?

Duke Snider? Tony Gwynn?

Some of these might already be a team collection not sure didn't memorize.

Or just stick it in Directional hitting and hit with power. 🙂

It’s great way to get a lot of at bats in for sure. I can usually make WS now but I was once a “easiest difficulty maxed out sliders timing only hitter” on RTTS for a year or so. I got the game years later and then I played online franchise and would go about 5-20. People would act like clowns if they lost to me but it was a lot more fun playing real players. Then I met a few guys that were insane. They told me to try a monitor and it helped immensely.

But I think the important thing is that I didn’t just buy the game and monitor and assume I would be good. If you’ve put in the time for an extended period of time, a monitor can be the difference, but you still have to put in the hours before it ever makes a difference.

Proper Specs or Practice will help you alot, but realistically are exponentially better together.

What are the forum rules on necrobumping? Is it clearly defined that they would much rather you necro a 9 month old thread than make a new one?

Show me the thread that explained how to use feature and i will ask it to be removed.

I think you misread my post

I did pardon me! 🙂

@Collin_SDS_PSN When you can find time would you verify this please? i've not been able to access this yet. Is this an issue? Or is challenge not active yet?

I still dont understand how ppl get quick pitched, like are you not watching the game youre playing? I know what quickpitching is in real life but yeah not once have I ever been been quick pitched in a video game where im looking at the pitcher

A single load out.

Ok did you reassign equipment and activate after downloading latest patch?

I’m pretty sure I have tried creating an all new profile, putting all the gear back on and deleting the old one a few times.

Pretty sure? Cmon work with me 🙂 just trying to help you narrow down possibilities

Made new profile. Deleted old profile. Put on archetype and perks. Put on only I piece of equipment, Legendary Call. Went in RTTS game. See +8 above contact and power if I check player card in pause menu in game. Go to bat, take a swing. My contact is 82 with archetype and perks., should be 90 with Legendary Call equipped. Nope still 82, still broken, still nothing from SDS on this. Still very annoyed.

If it says 82 and u r seeing +8 above it is working. It doesn't change actual attribute b/c it's not a permanant item.

You're 100% wrong bc when you're in DD and you take a swing its shows your boosted attribute in the feedback window.

On RTTS it was working for the first couple of days and now it hasn't worked in weeks. You have no clue what you're talking about.

Yeah I think they broke RTTS equipment in first patch during early release, the same one that broke the archetype program progression. They fixed that progression issue but not the equipment attributes problem unfortunately.

@moosealbany_psn said in Can someone explain how to:

The only thing I can think of to do is upload them via imjur or some other hosting program such as that and then link them here. I'm assuming you are trying to get to the equipment issue discussed??

In terms of going right for a PS to here, no idea how Grizz. Good luck with that though - looking forward to seeing your post!

Yeah but it's not gonna let me so i'm gonna try the Q&A approach thx though. If i was on pc i could

Well, this aged well. 7:45pm Saturday night and servers are down.

Funny how you waited til something happened b4 posting and no where did you refer to how well it was working prior. Yeah your cool!👍

And just so you know if they figured out a fix wouldn't you want it implemented immediately or should they have waited until forum trolls were ok with it?

You have to be the biggest SDS fanboy ever. The servers have crashed far more days than they haven’t and even if SDS needed to take the servers down, they could have announced it first. You don’t just take down servers, you plan the fix first so you know they have to go down.

Tell me when is the last time you seen a boy put a rubber on with a tiretool?

A Change of Seasons - Dream Theater

And to you Millenials, this is what real music sounds like

Millennials music of choose is 90s and early 2000s music. Today's garbage is Gen Z. The youngest millennials are almost 25 lmao

I'm 34 and have rubbed off on my son he's always gaming and listening to bands like kansas, queen, rush, and lincoln park, metallica he's 14 lol.

Your a good dad then. Definitely better than today's trash. I'm 24 and much prefer those bands FWIW

Anyone else still having this issue? I've tried EVERYTHING and I can't get it to work at the moment. Was working fine a few weeks ago

YES just what ALL of us RTTS players wanted... Forced to play DD to upgrade our RTTS players YESS

Wow! Ungrateful people i offer a way to help you get perks and equipment to help you with your RTTS player and that is your response? Do us all a favor and just uninstall the game!

I should be grateful that the only way to progress my RTTS player is to play DD? The fact that this is the only way to progress the character is not good. Thanks for letting people know that this is the only way to progress but this mode needs to be reworked for next year and this integration between DD and RTTS should be scrapped. Good luck to anyone willing to power through and grind conquest just so you can play RTTS.

Bla blah blah! Some people will do it. If you choose not to fine bye!

Well I haven’t been having any real issues. Just think the changing of the stick direction to advance/retreat runners is pretty stupid. Should be consistent. Not sure why but when I wasn’t paying attention to the display I pushed the left stick to the right thinking I was advancing but my runner went back. The display was showing advance up at that point. Don’t know why pushing to the right was interpreted as a down push.

I think most people just come on here to share their experiences to see if it is a widespread issue or what. If it is widespread you can just wait patiently for the fix, if it is isolated best to send in a bug report. Especially in the first couple weeks after release. I dont think it is crying. I am still waiting on 30K stubs from 3 hours after launch, and many others are waiting on a lot more. That is keeping from purchasing or selling any cards at the moment. I think that is a legit thing to be upset about.

I never said it was. The op said they are working on real money issues and that takes precedence over fake career mode.

Right but... You understand that ditching fundamental features in favour of microtransactions will be the death of gaming, right?

Additionally, what’s the difference between a “fake career mode” and a fictional sticker book team?

People play video games for fun. And if what you find fun is diamond dynasty that’s great... But to obliterate core game modes that are part of the identity of your franchise in favour of that is utterly ridiculous, particularly when the development costs that go towards developing it are negligible. I mean, I played a career continuously from 14’ to 18’. Almost all of the changes to RTTS were the same improvements to gameplay that were implemented across the rest of the modes.

Yes, SDS is a company, they absolutely have the right to try and seek to profit from their product as much as possible... Doesn’t mean those who buy the product shouldn’t be equally entitled to call them out on their decisions.

What fundamental features are you referring to that they ditched? Y2Y saves? Sounds of the show? Both of those features were gone when it went from ps3 to ps4 and there is nothing to say it isn't coming back.

The difference between "fake career mode" and "Fictional book team" as a gamer you know how fast ESports is growing right? Well people who put money into game to compete sometimes for 10's of thousands of dollars there is no way for you or me to make money off of "Career mode." So if those people lost money that is a no brainer they should be dealt with first.

As far as RTTS goes the progression or lack thereof is an obvious bug. And i would imagine there is a team working on it as we speak. And we will get an update as soon as they resolve it. But as far as the core of RTTS the mode plays great aside from obvious no progression. I do not see it going towards microtransaction in RTTS for the simple fact that the some of the tasks are repeatable.

And i have said this in other places too, all the changes they have made they refer to it being a foundation of what they want to do in future. Take Ballplayer for instance, why do you think they set it up for multiple loadouts with so many architypes with secondaries? I think it has to do with future COOP w/ friends. And also if it was about micro transactions wouldn't they have flooded us with architypes for every position and not have so many secondaries?
