RTTS Leaderboard

[Dabears554]

I can't figure out for the life of me what the point of the RTTS leaderboard is since it doesn't account for sliders or difficulty. It would be difficult to implement with dynamic difficulty, but still, what's the point of comparing myself to the guy batting .565 with 1,467 career homers? Obviously he's on rookie with sliders maxed in his favor.

And he's probably just simming his entire career

Re: RTTS Leaderboard

It is not a feature that is designed for players like us. He's a player who enjoys a more arcade experience who plays the game very differently. One of the great things about the series is that anyone can tailor the game to their preferences without stepping on each other's toes. I think the alternative where they lock in the difficulty and sliders for RTTS just for the sake of leaderboards would be much worse.

Not saying they should lock the mode's settings, just that you should be able to sort the leaderboard based on what settings you play at.
