RTTS Pitching Velocity Problem (Solved)

Re: RTTS Pitching Velocity Problem (Solved)

I have a 4 Seam Fastball, Circle Change, and Slider as my pitches. My Scouting Report says my Fastball should be 95 mph, but it barely gets over 90. It's velocity rating is 80, so this is confusing. Are you sure the Circle Change has nothing to do with it?

Can you tell me what your velocity rating is for your other 2 pitches too?

Listen to this dude Brandon_C he's one rad fellow.

Ugh. Of course, I have to start over. I just had to start off with a 4SFB, cutter and changeup. Geez.

Thanks guys for testing.

Ya I restarted like 4 times before I realized others were having velocity problems too...then me and some others decided to test them out and found the problems...don't forget to build your velocity up evenly between all pitches too.

OK you need to get those up to within 10-12 of you FB then your problem should be resolved...

Just so we're clear here, you're saying all pitches do affect 4-seam speed, it's just that the effect is broken for curve and change? I haven't evened out the velocity ratings on my 4-seam/splitter/slurve guy yet, so I shouldn't be surprised his 4-seam is slower than the scouting report? And because neither splitter nor slurve is on the list, things should be okay once I do even them out?

Re: Trying to get to the bottom of the RTTS pitching

Actually, in real life, a change (i.e., circle, palmball or splitty) is the last pitch that most pitchers develop since what gets them noticed in HS and college is their arm. So although the developers probably weren't meaning for it to happen this way, it follows a real life pitchers progression better than having all of those pitches to begin with.

It's kind of funny. Do a Google News search for "changeup" any time this month and you'll see who's working on one. AJ Burnett and Heath Bell popped up when I tried it. Last year there was Jon Lester. Justin Masterson's got a weird story: he claims he had a great one in the minors, then forgot how to throw it!

You hit the nail on the head my friend

Oh the palmball also is broken

Re: RTTS Pitching Velocity Problem (Solved)

Well now I have them rated at
Fastball 72
Splitter 64
Slurve 60

Fastball is finally touching 92 if I max out the meter, compared to 93 on the scouting report. The march continues...

Also I'm batting .300, hmm.

I love it every time I read that the workaround is working for yet another person

Re: RTTS Pitching Velocity Problem (Solved)

My personal pitches are as follows:
4SFB: 91-93 MPH I have hit 93 a few times, my reports says 92!
CUT: 88-90 MPH I hit 90 MPH consistently, my report says 89!
SPL: 84-87 MPH I hit 85 MPH consistently , my reports says 86 MPH.
