I'm glad you found something that works for you but I'm not paying for a game where I have to do a complicated dance around the software just to get it to work like it's supposed to. And I can't play a game that requires an online connection just to play, anyway. I live way out in the boonies and I'm on a DSL line. It took 26 hours to download MLB 20. Seriously. My connection drops all the time. I'll sit this one out.
Absolutely spot on. I agree 100%.
I usually pre-order but I haven't bought 2021 yet because I was waiting to get a PS5. Turns out that was a good thing. I'll just keep playing 2020 until it quits, I guess. How sad.
I'm glad I didn't buy The Show 21 because I live way out in the boonies and my internet is so bad I'd never get to play anything. And RTTS was the only mode I ever played. Guess I'll stay with '20.
Well, looks like I wont be playing MLB The Show2021. First off, where I live you can't get a PS5. And I won't pay scalpers prices. And I won't pay $99 to get the PS4 and 5 versions because....well, that's just a rip-off. Secondly, from what I've seen this morning the launch of MLB 2021 has been a disaster, and I've had enough of that in my life lately. And apparently the devs have eliminated a lot of stuff that I liked about the game. Gran Turismo, here I come..... Sorry SDS, you screwed the pooch on this one.
I'm staying with 20. Better gameplay (at least right now), more realistic, more customizable, more immersive....more fun.

Screwed the pooch? This game is great this year... Unless you're RTTS only
Well, yes, RTTS is the only mode I play. I'm out in the boonies and my internet connection is very slow so online playing doesn't work for me, and I'm not at all interested in DD anyway. And from what I've read they've basically taken everything out of RTTS that made it enjoyable (at least for me). If you enjoy the game, that's great. I'm just saying for me, this year, I'll be saving money on my gaming. I'm disappointed because I was looking forward to a new version of a game I've enjoyed since 2011 on a next gen console but I expect I'll get over it.
@xxx-cypher-ooo_xbl said in RTTS 2-way bummers thus far.:
I have progressed 10 games in a row after doing the following, including one game as pitcher. Both loadouts progressed accurately. I am afraid to quit the game and test that it works again, so I am gonna ride this will it's working and will edit/comment after I try to repeat the process. Do the DD one at bat technique as soon as you log on, and then... (if you don' know what it is, look it up, there are articles and youtube vids) Go back into RTTS, hit the BACK button (double square looking small button on xbox) that brings up a column of options on the left side of the screen. Go to inbox. Right bumper to settings. Last setting is "missions." Make sure this is on. optional - check your rtts progression numbers that are stuck and write them down. Play a game, but DO NOT EVER use the "sim to next appearance" option, whether it's the option that comes up after each play along with the "watch whole game" option, or the one in the pause menu with the 6 tabs at the top. a. after each at bat, if not on the bases, let it go to the screen with the lineups that show you each at bat. Hit B to skip to your next appearance. Go back to club house after each game. Not sure if this matters, but it's what I am doing.

So, you have to do this dance just to get the game to work as it should? That seems....absurd.

Now, I won't be buying MLB21 because they've screwed the pooch so badly so I won't need a PS5 since The Show is the only game I play. Hey! I just saved $500! Maybe I'll buy a new guitar....

LOL, that's funny. I'm 70 years old and I've been a professional musician for over 50 so, nice try. No one.....literally no one gives a flip what you think, kid.

And your unwillingness to purchase a PS5, made somebody else VERY VERY happy. Thank you for your service.

I personally went back to mlb20 and won't play mlb21 till fixed and this is the last year that I ever pre order this game I hope they make rtts independent of dd (a mode in which not everyone likes) but also improves rtts for the better I have read plenty of post on different rtts forums written by the fans with great recommendations on how to improve rtts. So hopefully the devs will read them and take the suggestions and use them to make rtts amazing which is the only reason I play this game
This. Exactly. I buy MLB The Show for RTTS. It's the only mode I play. I'm not at all interested in DD or any online play. I'll play MLB20 until it quits working, I guess. Maybe RBI will be worth playing next year.
