Standings, Stats & History then Game History. Select the game and it gives you the option to report. That lets you report team names and connections issues to SDS. I'M talking about how you used to type in a player's ID, select it like you were getting ready to send a msg, then click on Select Players, then select that player like you were going to block them; but instead I think you selected 'Options' on the controller when the 3 dots by their ID was selected. Then you can report their USER ID to SIE like you would report a vulgar message. Wait I'm confused here, help me out. You say this person has messages turned off, and that's why you can't report this person. But that means no conversation took place and so I wonder what's worth reporting if this person hasn't said anything? He has, what I consider to be, a vulgar and rude PSN ID. So he didn’t message you anything vulgar, Didn’t say anything vulgar in a party to you & didn’t do anything illegal during gameplay...But you don’t like his gamertag & want to tattle to get him suspended or banned. People can be unreal sometimes, Just wow.

Sony makes that decision, not the reporting player. Everybody has the right to report a person’s gamertag that they consider to be offensive. If Sony finds it offensive, action is taken. If not, then no action. It’s not like the OP came on here spouting how offended they were and how important their own opinion is. They didn’t even refer to anything about the gamertag in question. They just asked how they would report something to Sony. It was done the right way.
If anybody can help the OP, please do so.
Many ideas, several that can be streamlined in RTTS, Franchise and M2O (and season mode if it returns, and it should) if they all run from the same platform:
Promotion/demotion based on performance and other RTTS universe variables, not attributes. If I’m batting below Mendoza for a couple of years straight I shouldn’t expect a spot in the starting lineup or even in the Majors the following year just because my attributes are higher than the AAA guy (bear in mind I have limited knowledge of roster movement rules).
IL return through rehab assignments.
Make a big thing of spring training and a spring training invitation, especially for a AA and AAA player.
More off-field meaningful interactions:
extend the use of relationships and personality. These have a great platform to build from. Make the social media tweets more useful and interesting (and fix up the bugs in the management of them).
Interactions with team Manager, GM and agent should be user-controlled (there used to be an option to speak to your team manager) with the occasional auto one.
When you have a really bad game or a really good game (eg player of the game good) have a media interaction. This can impact upon relationship with GM/Franchise team mates, oppo players and fans.
Other off-field interactions also.
5 Awarding of attribute points to continue the way it is, but after a game ask the player if they would like to allocate the points to the default attributes (current method) or choose themselves to which attributes they are assigned (old method). This meets the needs of those who want to create a god and those who prefer it to be more real.
More to come...
Just feel like sharing something positive, I just PB’ed my local 5km parkrun track, smashed my previous best (at which I had hit a plateau) by 44 seconds! Last August when I started I was over 31 minutes now I’m down to 21:13.
I can’t wait for parkrun to start up again, it is an awesome thing to be a part of. Feels great and it’s all free! Joining, when it’s back up and running in your area, is highly recommended!
@halfbutt and @comebacklogic great posts.
‘ The real nail in the coffin was the “random hangers on good input”. I can’t offer any rationale on SDS’ thought process here. ’
Comeback, I reckon halfbutt gave the rationale - wait for a mistake.
Halfbutt, in saying that, this is where the emulating real life hitting has been attempted. You are so right in saying that the pitcher controls the outcome of a plate appearance. Batters are at the mercy of the pitcher, and pitchers have the batter’s reputation at the front of mind when selecting which pitch, when and where.
I wish I had more time to think this response through, but I don’t so I’ll give a sentence.
Unfortunately, of course, as you have both alluded to, the balance isn’t quite right yet because the market is a blend of ‘casual noobs’ who just want to win despite their lack of practice or skills, and die hards who want their own skills to matter more.
Edit: these two sub-markets need to be separated in online play. Custom Leagues is a start.
The core purpose of the mode is to enjoy the season experience without having to play a full season or worry about the complexity of managing a franchise. It’s ‘season lite’ if you will. Some people enjoy it for that.
It’s not irrelevant to them at all.
@geek_logic_mlbts said in RTTS Feedback Blog Post:
I feel like I was just told “sorry-not-sorry” by the game devs. Having my Road to the Show player capped until I participate in Diamond Dynasty is absolutely unacceptable.
That’s the complete opposite of what it says.
@rabid55wolverine said in The stupidity that is moments:
I don't know why this company does this with moments. I have a very hate type relationship with moments in this game and the last one so I decided to check out just how stupid things are. Using the TN Adam Duvall moment, I played it 18 times where you have to get 8 total bases. I did it decently quickly but that isn't really the point. So in those 18 times I have done the moment, not completed, just the moment itself I saw 29.7% strikes. This is on veteran difficulty. I was walked 12 times mostly because I was trying to take a lot of pitches to see what would happen. I struck out 4 times and had numerous hits. I was also beaned 3 times. All 3 times with 2 strikes on me. So then I jumped into play VS CPU and played vs Atlanta and Mac Fried. In those games, I only played 3 but the whole 9 inning games and faced 73.1% strikes. I drew 1 walk and wasn't hit by a pitch. This speaks absolute volumes for me on how absolutely stupid these moments really are. I know, I have no life but I just thought I'd share this completely useless info.

When actual data is compiled and analysed like this it is so much more convincing and satisfying to read than the usual (justified nonetheless) complaint posts. Thank you for thinking to and going to the effort of doing this.
Moments really are the ‘busy work’ of this game. I would also add Showdown, Conquest and Events to that category. In fact, anything that detracts from playing actual baseball or team management (ie grinding) could be classed as busy work (the purpose of which is to keep the player engaged in the game without giving the opportunity to learn anything new or improve any skills). That ain’t baseball.
What needs to happen is that sort of thing needs to be put on YouTube as a full unedited clip, complete with inputs shown and all. Set that capture time to last 60 mins and when it’s all done, simply save and edit down to the start of the game and upload.
If there’s video evidence out there, people will have no choice but to believe it instead of dismissing it. That way specific instances of dodgy gameplay can be pointed out and hopefully taken notice of by those with influence on the making of the game. Yes, words are therapeutic (I get the impression from your post that this isn’t a rant, more of a sharing of your disbelief), but your experience sounds like an opportunity to really expose the ridiculousness of what happens. Video speaks volumes!
Your experience is a reassurance that my preference for non-DD is the right choice for me.
If you don’t dive, you miss out on opportunities like this: MLB The Show 19 foul ball in the crowd caught by 1B bug https://youtu.be/2v3J1KgrCXA
@pogibana said in We need Something New!!:
Yea Yea Yea just what we need. Add more garbage when the stuff we have now is only half done. How about instead complete the stuff added already first. Like being able to call your agent instead of waiting for him, social media that actually works, and a personality thing that that makes sense
Three of his four ideas revolve around current content in RTTS being improved to make them more worthwhile.
I’m all for all of the above except the online play idea. I can see multiple RTTS worlds colliding somehow in the future, but not quite like that.
Nothing but fish eyes here. All those zoom views improve competitiveness sure, but at what cost?
(Fun. The answer is fun.)
Obviously the use of loot boxes and their equivalents in various games cops a fair bit of flack in the community (some justified, some not).
However, the idea of ‘gambling’ to obtain rare items or complete collections has been around for as long as consumerism.
I’ve never been into any kind of ‘gambling to complete collections’ (closest I got was getting all of the Simpsons Tazos in Doritos packs back in the mid 90s). So I can’t speak from personal experience. Nor do I collect baseball cards, either in real life or in-game.
So I wonder why is the idea of the developers employing micro transactions to purchase packs to have a chance at acquiring the wanted players so despised?
People speak so fondly of baseball cards and the excitement of opening packs, yet hasn’t the same ‘micro transaction’ strategy been used for a hundred years in real life in the form of baseball cards, except without disclosing the odds of acquiring a rare item? Or even any indication of what in fact is a rare item? On the contrary, in this game, the odds are explicitly stated so wouldn’t you say that’s a bit fairer for the user?
I can think of one justified counter-argument. With care, some baseball cards can increase in value over time, whereas contents of loot boxes (in this game, player cards) are basically worthless within a year or two.
However that’s not the issue I’m questioning. What I really want to know is, do we hate loot boxes in real life as much as we hate loot boxes in video games?
Played around 11 seasons of RTTS in 20. Was good.
Didn’t even reach 11 games of RTTS in 21. Was not good.
Have played one game in 21 in the last month (Franchise mode Spring Training).

Perfect pitching input should be rewarded if the batter does not have perfect hitting input.
Perfect batting input should be rewarded if fielder is not placed perfectly…
All taking into account player attributes of course… pitcher, batter, fielder…
So many variables to take into account… no wonder we all can’t agree!
@twisted-_-tea-_psn said in I dont understand how hitting works....:
Congratulations or I’m sorry that happened to you. Either way I’m not readin all that
It wasn’t a lot to read in comparison to some, but I have to commend you for such a hilarious response. Made my day
I don’t believe there is (hopefully I’m wrong), but it really should be on the player card.
@speedy44_psn said in Didnt realize its possible for your runner on 1st to go back to home...:
Again not sure if this was a one off situation but I had my runner on first base and I was trying to steal second in a ranked season game. pitcher threw over so I hit R1 and not only did my runner go back to first but he rounded first and and was thrown out trying to steal home backwards lol
Definitely gonna need a clip for that one. Please tell me you retro-captured it that’s a highlight reel play for sure.
Does it perhaps mean your team can’t make a trade? Do you have enough active players in each position, including minor league levels?

It could work the way you have described (each pack has its own odds) or they may be sequenced so that every 50 packs allocated to the user base has a diamond. Nobody knows except those who designed and/or coded it. I saw a youtuber earlier pulled two diamonds in one pack. This shows it is not every 50 packs to the community. I pulled diamonds in back-to-back-to-back packs also makes that not true as well.

Just wanted to add (see my previous reply), the back to back to back could be determined by when cards are allocated: purchase, opening… also others may be purchasing or opening at the exact same time… etc
