First off, I want to say thank you for the 16 years I have enjoyed playing The Show, except maybe the start of 2018 when we couldn’t choose our starting team in RTTS. There have been some ups and downs but I have always enjoyed it.
However, I think this might be my last year. Not threatening or anything, it just appears I’m getting to old for the game being almost a 6o yr. old gamer. I could never use the pci. My mind only has enough time to figure out timing and whether it’s a strike or not and sometimes not even enough time for that. I have never been able to use it. So, I can never do the online missions or mission difficulty beyond all-star because the pci shrinks so much. I am not much of a DD player being mostly a rtts player but I do like to do a lot of the missions, conquest, and event stuff but too much of it involves playing online and I can’t do it. I just get creamed by everyone and can never advance. I do get addicted to opening packs lol, probably nostalgia from doing it so much when I was a kid. I would never ask for a game to be dumbed down and I am not. Just pointing out my own personal reasons.
But, on to the main issue.
I love RTTS. Every year I would create 3-4 players. All with different looks, names, personalities etc. I always did a power guy, a contact speedster, a starting pitcher, and sometimes a closer. I enjoyed developing them through their career and establishing them as the top in their position. But you have taken all this away. I can’t even make one with a different name or change how they look or anything due to your push towards making everyone play DD. As a RTTS player I still bought stubbs because I wanted the gear for them and like I said, I get addicted to opening packs. There was no need for this push. And speaking of pushing, I wish the game would stop asking me if I wanted to be a two position player. Leave me alone and let me play the game I want to play. Sorry, little rant there. I just get frustrated when I ask myself, Is anyone at SDS a true gamer or have they all forgotten what it’s like to be a gamer and enjoy playing, creating your character, and developing them? You have taken all this away from me and made it all very generic and because of that I do not think I can continue. I will just go back a few years and play that one over and over again.
I really doubt this will fall upon any ears or if any would agree with me, but it’s my 2 cents.
In addition, just some side notes.. You need a way to be able to call your agent instead of waiting for his yearly one call.
I do not understand this double stat thing and see no purpose for it. Why are they 30-50 but then on my card everything goes to 100 and there seems to be no correlation. 40 speed might be 93 speed but 40 contact might only be 75 contact. It makes zero sense.
Check swings, annoying. I mash the button and get nothing but a check swing, usually only on curveballs and change ups. Add in feature to disable them. I like the realism but when it’s not working its needs to be able to be shut off.
Thank you,
I'm with you. I have tried about 6-7 times to do showdowns and have not been able to win one of them.
I bought stubs from in the game, money has been taken from my bank account and nothing in game. exited the game and came back and still nothing.
Thanks for all the positive feedback.
I appreciate them trying to add new stuff in but tis was definitely the wrong approach in my opinion. Maybe add things like something to spend your salary on like buying a nice house and some cars and bling. Definitely building up a trophy room so you can admire all your trophy's. They could even add extras in to the packs to help generate some extra revenue.
The more depth and the more development of my players the better. Makes me feel more involved with their progression.

In a live stream today SDS said this year MyBallPlayer and RTTS are laying foundation for the years to come... I asked them 2 questions regarding loadouts and having more than one player in that thread following the stream. https://forums.theshow.com/topic/34259/following-twitch-stream-rtts-plans I hope they'll answer them...

Them stating they are just laying the foundation of what to come is scarier. Means it could get worse but I will have hope.
@roll-humps_xbl said in No Ball Player Program Progress:
log into DD, play one PA with your CAP against the CPU, back out and then go back into RTTS and it should start counting. I’ve grinded 10 Diamond Archetypes over the last 3 days and everything has counted for me.
That isn't working for me anymore. I was doing that for the short time it did work and now nothing.
I did get the stats counting for a short time, then I switched archetypes for a new player and I do not get them on anything. Tried all the tricks but nothing counts.
I am getting close to 250 packs without a diamond.
I am having the same issue. Tried every trick in the book including a new player and still no progression.
@quinnymcquinn said in I think with no double xp a lot of people will struggle to complete the programs:
2-3k? For a ranked game? I think it’s closer to 6-9k depending on how well you do. I get around 3-4K per conquest game. Also if I pitch in rtts, just those pitched innings and stats get about 3500k
Sorry we are all not as good as you, i typically only get about 2-3 k per cpu 9 inning game.
In this years I am pretty much the same as you, AAA after all star then sometime in the summer called to MLB. In the past, wanna say 2014 the show, I got called to mlb from double A in a month once. Seemed all the first basemen got injured. My pitcher this year got called up pretty quickly, too quickly in my mind, still bronze archetype and he is definitely not ready for the bigs.
Try logging out and then back in.
If you un-link it should all come back. At least that is what they stated in the pinned message about it.
"UPDATE: Log into the Show Account you created and you should see the red "unlink" buttons. This should unlink your account and your progress should be restored to what it was before the linking."
wow, 21 times. The most I have seen is was 5 times in a game with a 1 step lead and I steal a lot and the 5 times seems a lot.
