How is the trade and FA logic in this year's RTTS?

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

CF- Drafted by Indians to AA Akron Aeros.
Missing every breaking ball. As usual can't pick up the Slider just yet....WHIFF. Have not gotten my count yet to 5 pitches!
2-11, 2B, 1 RBI, 1 Run, 5 SO
Already let a liner get to the wall (mis-judge), SIGH!
I think I have been moved to the Bench already after 3 games.

What is noticeably different in RTTS in '12?

The Steal training actually makes sense. This time you get Speed points for successfully getting good jumps as opposed to successful Steals. +10 - good, just -2 for Bad. The running animations are cool, you actually stumble and fall on the base paths!

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

Can anyone do me the favor of seeing whether or not Eisenberg or Isenberg is available as a last name? I'm not getting the game for another couple of weeks, and I can't wait to find out!

Thanks!

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

Close to finishing my first season with a SP. I was drafted by the Rangers and eventually traded to the Tigers organization. Now i'm the ace on the AAA team. At the end of my latest advancement period they said I was ready for the Majors but there wasn't a spot available on the 40 man roster. Hopefully i'll get in at the start of the second season.

Now that my last name is in the game!!!!!!

I'm a 3rd baseman drafted by the Pirates, definitely have to find my way out of there.

Isenberg is available, but Eisenberg is not.



Anyways, my 3rd basemen got drafted by the Yankess. Through 4 weeks he's batting .225ish. I really suck at analog hitting, but pressing a button seems to easy.

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

Started Kenny Powers as a SP, got drafted by the phillies, got traded to the orioles like 2 weeks later almost into june now. can't buy a win. my teammates can't hit.

1st baseman drafted by the Yankees, 6 RBI through my first few games, all on singles though lol. I'm having a really hard time baserunning, but fielding and batting are coming really easy to me. This is the first time I've played RTTS since MLB 07 or 09 though.

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

I really wish I was good at making faces in this game. I can never get my player to look like me. Wish I was as good as some other face makers on here.

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

Made myself a 1B again same as last year. Drafted by the Brewers.. Big shoes to fill with Fielder in Detroit. 1 HR 11 RBI's through 18 games, the pitching on the team is awful though. Ranked 30th in the league in ERA and we're sitting with a record of 6-12... 5.5 back of 1st. Loving all the little gameplay improvements thus far

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

is there a way to view league transactions and news easily(or at all) in RTTS? I'm currently still in AA, but would like to try and keep up with what's big trades/signings/etc happen at the MLB level. I swear I've entered every menu option in RTTS but to no avail? I remember being able to view this in past years, I believe, but the last game I had was 09.

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

My SP, who I put on the Blue Jays, was two outs away from a no-no in AA ball until I got hit with a ground ball single right up the middle.

I've never threw a no-hitter before and was positive this would've finally been the time I did. So heartbroken lol

Re: MLB 12 The Show: Road to the Show Thread

Started a starter RTTS. May or may not stick with it once the full minors roster is out. Anyway, I made a SP, drafted by Miami. I've made 3 starts so far and done well. Except for my control. I am walking a lot, and I mean a LOT of batters. Last outing, 7IP, 8 BB. Overall, I have 17 BB in 19 IP. However, I do have 18 Ks. A regular Nuke LaLoosh, guess.

BTW, this is using pulse pitching with no slider modifications.
